50 Best Bars near Shorewood

“Once we got engaged, we started looking at tons of venues and The Atrium was intriguing and we went to view it. When we were there on our initial tour it was everything we ever wanted including the upstairs bar, outdoor space and the beautiful main level. Working with The Atrium leading up to the wedding was a great experience, we were assigned Lori for our day of coordinator. We met Lori prior to the wedding day, and instantly had a connection. I knew Lori was going to be a great asset for our wedding day, she is full of knowledge and worked on the catering side in her past so every ounce of knowledge helped us. Come wedding day, she was by my side, making sure everything was perfect, including my bustle! I couldn’t have imagined having a better person by my side, bending over backward for me and our guests. Lori is a great asset to The Atrium’s team!“

“This place always has some great options on tap and they have a few cans as well. I had some great IPAs, and a few Belgian style ales, all excellent. The beer prices were a bit steep for a 4 oz pour, but they are unique and well selected. There were nice spots outdoors in the sun as well as inside. I played a quick game of pacman on a mini video game sitting on a shelf with other games (card, video, dice, etc.).“

“A favorite spot in Shorewood. Their drinks are great and the food is delicious. (Their Reuben sandwich that only comes around once a year is the best I’ve ever had. Wish they’d do that more often!). It can get crowded pretty quick, so I’d get there early if you’re able.“

“A perfect spot for a little day drinking!!“

“Always wanted to go here, but never got around to it. Very fun. Thought it would be more expensive, but a Surfside came with 10 throws. Played 2 games with some friends, hit a bullseye and won a koozie. Overall, cool place. Kiu helped us and was extremely nice. Good job yall.“

“This was an extremely fun stop to our night, there was only two workers, but they were making the best of the situation and were extremely friendly. It did take a little bit for them to come over, but it wasn’t a problem at all she apologized as well. The worker was extremely nice and helpful through the whole night. She checked on us multiple times and was very wonderful. It was such a blast to come hang out here and learn new fun things to do. Highly recommend making a stop. We stopped in on a Saturday night and it was pretty empty. Definitely a fun place to stop and hang out. They have ax throwing as well.“

“Went for the first time today for a doggo lunch date with muh fur baby. Wonderful staff and quick service. I noticed negative reviews complaining there was dogs, well no crap it’s the business model and there’s an actual picture of a dog on the door and logo. ANYWAYS price is a little steep but when I got my food holy cow it was delicious. And I love that they have dog friendly menu items available as well. The place is super clean for the amount of guests and animals that come through. Loved that the food pickup and service area is separate from dining. The only downfall was I did pay for pickles and there wasn’t any but I didn’t even notice it until I devoured the first half of my food. No big deal. I ordered the steak sandwich and strawberry limeade which I also love is made by hand with fresh fruit. My dog is now sleeping in a food coma as am I.“

“Damond provided outstanding service. Great atmosphere. The Chicken Sandwich is truly the best ever. I’ll be back, working my way through the menu!“

“Amazing burger. I found this place by googling : best smash burger in milwaukee and this place was named left and right. Didn’t disappoint. I got a double and left way over full haha. Single next time! I believe this is truly 1 of if not the best smash burger around!“

“All they have for food is all they need for food: pizza. They have classic and modern cabinets + enough pinball, skee ball, and hoops games to keep you entertained. Plays are $0.25/player for every game, but they have specials that lower the cost per play even further. Great for small and large parties alike

Vegetarian options: Mona Lisa is a margarita pizza

Dietary restrictions: They have ciders and seltzer, but I do wish they had more rice beers

Parking: More reliable parking is on N Jackson

Kid-friendliness: The bar is strictly 21+

Wheelchair accessibility: Ramps to main floor. I believe there's an elevator to the second floor“

“Had a great 1st night there, then I had car problems. Racquel (didn’t spell right I’m sure..). Did not hesitate to help jump my car. Will now be a stop when in the area. Very welcoming❤️😂“

“great owner who is really great at incorporating others to feel appreciated . also the food is awesome with great portions“

“I had the pizza and garlic bread for the first time today. My grandson brought it home and both were excellent. I'll definitely be getting it again.“

“Lou is funny, charming, and wonderful. The burgers were delicious, and enormous. The drinks are very reasonably priced, it's a great little, tiny, casual, local bar.
It was HOT out and there was a nice breeze flowing through, but if you are heat sensitive like me, you want to make sure to dress in cool, comfy clothing,or go on a cooler day.“

“Great food! Nice selection of entrees and sandwiches. The Rachel I ordered could have had more sauerkraut, but the 1000 Island and horseradish on the side were plentiful. The spinach & feta roll appetizer was delicious, and the homemade chips on the Irish nachos were light & crispy.“

“We had fun designing our golf hole. The staff, Makaylah and Rachel, were very helpful! There were lots of prop to add, but there could be more ramps to add different levels. That said, we saw some ideas how others used the props to make makeshift ramps. Had a fun bar vibe.“

“Great bar with welcoming bar tenders and fun patrons! If you want to have a great time, this is the bar for you!“

“We had a blast .. found Holler House through Google search of oldest bars in Milwaukee. The owners Tom and Cathy are amazing and the locals made us feel at home! We have so many pictures and so much fun! Be sure to do a shotski! These Texans had a blast!“

“Walked in as a stop before dinner. Everyone here was quietly watching Jeopardy on the tv and politely saying their answers. We grabbed a booth and joined in the fun. Services was great. Won a $1 off a pull tab and wished we could have stayed longer. Vibes are incredible.“

“Best bar experience in Milwaukee. Really talented bartenders making phenomenal drinks. Good, price-friendly, flavorful drinks! I'm really impressed with the talents of the bar service. Wicked good place for drinks and service! The bartenders deserve a round of applause 🙌 👏“

“never again will I walk into to this establishment 0 outta 5.“

“My hubby did a pickup order and wow, we were impressed! Pickup fish fry isn’t usually something we do (thanks kidney stones for ruining our night) because it gets soggy but tonight we had to and it was really good. They packaged everything separately so the tartar and the slaw weren’t warm sitting in the container with the hot food, I had the combination platter and the package the baked cod in a separate soup container which was great. My husband had the blue gill and really enjoyed them as did our 5 year old. The food was all really delicious and I can’t wait to dine in next time. My husband said while he had a beer at the bar while he waited for our food all of the employees were friendly and pleasant.“

“We had a few drinks and some fried snacks. The food and atmosphere and great. We also took a pie making class with Valeri in the back pie making kitchen. The class was supper fun. She is an excellent teacher and very knowledgeable. We made strawberry rhubarb pie and it turned out excellent. Valeri really ran a great class and made it fun and informative.“

“Best Drinks in Milwaukee 🔥“

“This is like any neighborhood bar, with a lot of locals and other nice people! The bartenders are always friendly and have lots of tables for small groups to gather to have fun! They don't serve food though, only frozen pizza and salty snacks!

Parking: They have a parking lot and if it's full, there is also street parking!“

“Only place around we know where you can play pingpong for free! They had pinball machines, darts and pingpong in the back. We came here for my mother's 64th birthday because she wanted to play table tennis and it was so fun! I haven't seen her smile like that in a long time!“

“Rain was the absolute sweetest bartender! We came from up north and it felt like a dive bar with the happy hour pricing and kind staff. I always come back here when we go to Milwaukee because of the FOOD!!! best bar food you’ll ever have in your life ❤️“

“I live in the area and coming here I always see the service and the customers are pleasant and welcoming. Well recommended.“

“This was my visit and will not be my last! I really enjoyed myself! Miss Karaoke ❤️“

“Great atmosphere the drinks are one of a kind and delicious!! Very cute inside decor and the Ally is so cool.“

“If you want to know what life was like before corporations took over everything, step back in time to the Valley Inn. The food was delicious and the cook, also waited on us. Nice neighborhood vibe, that I don’t see much anymore.
My wife and I split an Italian beef so the cook prepared it on two separate plates, without any attitude like you get at a lot of restaurants.“

“this is Art’s house Art gives very few cares and will show you photos of him when he was ol he takes his time so don't go when youre in a hurry he gave me a flash light which doesn't relly work which is probably why he gave it to me theres a hole in the back deck which has to be seen to believed he loves jokes, the News, TMZ, and bar dice. I dig the characters here man on a calculator plugged into the wall, a three legged dog and a marathon-running doctor Art used to save newspapers for me but he doesn't do that anymore which is fine because i used to pick up the papers just to take them home to recycle i became the middle man for his newspaper disposal which became quite redundant art may offend or he might not again don’t ever go here when you’re in a hurry.“

“Lo recomiendo, 100%, este lugar de nutrición aquí encuentras las mejores crepas y bebidas energéticas, Waffles y más Es un lugar con muy buena vibra y muy limpio todo muy saludable Pasen a visitarlo“

“amazing bar super sweet and nice bartenders...and their patio is the Best!“

“Went last night for trivia. Had a reservation, but had to change the amount of people upon arrival. They accommodated us, which was unexpected, but appreciated. Our server, a young man in his early 20’s was excellent. We had the soft pretzels for an app, the Cuban and the chicken ceasar wrap for entrees. The food came out quickly and was delicious. My gf had two Paloma’s. Their prices are crazy cheap. I have been bartending for 15 years and I have worked at places 7-10 years ago where the prices were at what the prices here were at. I couldn’t believe that buffalo trace was only $8!!!! You guys should/could charge 15-20% more. Regardless of my opinions, overall, the experience was excellent. We will be back and now I know why the place was full on a Thursday in the summer. Keep up the good work.“

“Nice little-big neighborhood spot. Good bartenders, good machines, pool, darts, patio. Usually very delicious, and made from scratch, frozen drinks available. If that's your thing, do it, fantastic! Otherwise a wide liquor selection, great tap and bottle beers available, some seltzers, and ciders to be had as well. Good people, for the most part, and great security, for when it matters. Generally trouble free though.“

“At in Wonderland diner today for lunch. Amazing food, our waiter Ben double checked if certain things were safe for me (I'm gluten free). Had a gluten free bun for my burger. If you are gluten free or not I highly recommend this place!“

“My neighborhood "cheers". I moved to the area 2yrs ago, and I just started visiting this place in the summer. I like it here. There's always good vibes. Sarah and Dawn are awesome! Sarah makes the best wings and they have a nice variety of flavors! The drinks are well made, and the prices are affordable. It's a nice place for a quick bite to eat and a drink after work. Game days are always a go!“

“Great people. Good drinks“

“Great bartenders, fun events!“

“Great place to watch soccer. They also have a nice beer selection.“

“Awesome place!! My uncle used to be part owner years ago and my mom worked there. Supposedly I was conceived on the bar“
