50 Best Bars near Thiensville

“This was our first visit to the restaurant. We were out of town for the night and wasn't sure where to eat. This was kind of a celebratory night, we had been married for one month. Patty was our waitress and she was simply amazing! When she asked what we were up to and told her she congratulated us and even asked to see some pictures. Our food was delicious. I had the filet mignon and my husband had a burger. Also deserving of a mention was the white chocolate cheesecake we shared for dessert. It was to die for! Great food and great service, we will definitely be back in the future🙂“

“Came to IVR for the first time and it won’t be our last. Service was great and the butter chicken was outstanding!!!“

“The owners are super nice and friendly The customers there were very talkative and friendly. I highly recommend going here to anyone. We will make this a regular stop on our days out. 💯 great experience“

“I’d been eyeing this place since we booked our stay in Cedarburg months ago. We came in from St. Louis and I knew I wanted to have birthday drinks with my husband and kiddo here on Wednesday evening when we were in town! It didn’t disappoint. The wildfire smoke had cleared quite a bit, the sky was sparkling, and it was a gorgeous evening to sit on the patio and enjoy our drinks. I had the spritzer, my husband had the summer Mule, and our son had the kiddie cocktail with cotton candy. The overall vibe of the place is just perfection, from the second you walk inside until you find a spot to hang on the patio. I wish we didn’t live six hours away. We’d be regulars! Thanks for a happy birthday memory, Art of Joy!“

“Great food, great beer, and great service! Dan was very friendly and has a great personality!“

“Great atmosphere, great food (ALL THE PASTAS, Yes Please!!), and great people (especially the staff!!)!! Only go here if you want to have great time!! And by the way the short bartender is amazing!! 🤩“

“The food was awesome great atmosphere!! Was happy we found it after turning down 3 others places to eat!! Would visit again if we come threw that town again!!“

“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.“

“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.).“

“This a great place to visit. The drink I chose was very good and the bartender was very nice and friendly. Inside is beautiful and comfortable. I definitely will be returning again in the future. Look forward to trying more drinks at SIP, hopefully soon!“

“Seen the place many times traveling, never had a chance to stop. Happened to be in the area, so my daughter and I gave it a shot. WoW, my family and I have been missing out. This place is fantastic. The food and drinks will bring me back. Had Norb's steak sandwich, with fried onions and Mushrooms, Cheese and Bacon. SUPER!!“

“Bard is the best bartender!! We only come in when he’s bartending. B Bringing A Arms R radiating D dad energy“

“great place to have fun with friends and great service!“

“Friendly, fun and fabulous! Owner and staff make everyone welcome!“

“Family style business serving up unique delicious recipes. Ordered the shrimp and grits and Philly cheesecake egg rolls. Came out lightning fast, and worth every penny paid.This is not a place to go when you're feeling like eating someplace fancy. The building has a history to it that shows in the classic homey bar way. This IS a place to go when you just want to sit at a bar enjoying fantastic soul food spins and get away from the typical bar food fare.Food was so tasty, it all disappeared before I even thought of taking a photo. So instead I'm attaching a photo of the food from my neighbor who ordered the fish and attests to it too being delicious“

“If you want a very good meal. This is the place. The owner hand makes everything from the sauces to dressing to all the food, and there cheese cakes is out of this world. They do offer outside seating or indoors. Prices are very reasonable. And again the food will surprise you.Very good!“

“Bartender is the bomb!!!!“

“it's a mixed crowd the bartenders are 5 star and so is security the drinks are great if you have a issue there your most likely the problem it's like a second family for me at least“

“A Mature Crowd With A Relaxing Atmosphere! The Best Pink Pussies Ever!!!! If You Want To Enjoy Your Evening Drama Free, I Highly Recommend!“

“It's a great hole in the wall. We always have a ball when we go here. It's close to home, great priced drinks, and staff is cool af. If your boogie this isn't the place for you. Also no food or snacks to buy. It's a 30 plus crowd.“

“Shared my first experience there for a private Booked repast service. Really enjoyed my self nice and clean employees were very attentive Bathrooms were clean Didn't smell .parking was not an issue on tthe lot or street I will re visit again.“

“I was here for the first time last week and loved it. Great food and wonderful staff. Can’t wait for the new hours and daily specials!“

“We went to Wise Guys Thursday at North 48. It was such a fun night with great service and amazing cocktails.

North 48 also has a huge liquor selection and fresh juices for mixed drinks which I thought was a really nice touch.“

“Laid-back, clean, and comfortable establishment with friendly staff and fair prices. A great place to hang out and enjoy some darts, cool, and cocktails with a few friends (it is not very large - so I would recommend bringing no more than four or five friends. A+“

“Fun local bar. Cheap tap beer!“

“Greatest bar with the most friendly staff! Great prices and the GREATEST Atmosphere!“

“This bar is the best bar in butler. Autumn is the best bartender I've ever met. She's so friendly and quick to refill the drinks when it's empty. The folks that come in were super nice to be around. Also I got to meet Brittany as a customer and she said she works Saturdays so I'm excited to stop in when she's working.“

“Best place ever Tuesday Taco Tuesday real good tacos Thursday free Hennessy shots until 11 p.m. and Friday best cored DJ kev oh and he's there on Thursdays too mixing music up if have not been to this place get there!!

“Good People Clean Excellent food Best Bar Ever!“

“They let me bring cookies in for everyone to share. Called Cookie Sue & Candy Lou Wednesdays.“

“Came in 2/16/24 with group of 7. We all loved our food - especially the shrimp appetizer with Asian slaw! Our drinks were wonderful, and we loved our bartender, Tucker, along with all the other staff. I asked if they had stuffed blue cheese olives for my martini and they didn’t have any but made some for me!! We’ll definitely be returning.“

“This is a unique craft beer spot in an old mill building in Grafton. We would have liked more options (they had about 10 beers) and the prices are a touch high ($8-12 per pour) but overall it was a cute spot with a relaxing patio to sip a cold bevy. Would definitely go again“

“Rather large bar. They have an indoor/outdoor smoking area where you can take your drinks with you. They also have a large back hall that you can rent for parties, weddings, or anything else! There are two pool tables and they have a pool league at this bar as well so be sure to find out when the league plays if you're planning to go for pool! Friendly bartenders and good service.“

“The staff are super friendly and they make the best hot 12 oz latte, just the way I like it and I'm particular 😊“

“Normally we have good luck at the Chancery. Not the case yesterday. I went with my six year old, clearly a “kid” but the seating host didn’t give us a kids menu. I had to go ask for one. I ordered the California wrap with no onions or avocado because I have some food sensitivities. It came with no onions or tomato. I didn’t realize this until I was about halfway through eating it. Thankfully it’s just sensitivity and not an allergy. The cheese on my son’s grilled cheese was barely melted. I could clearly see where each slice of cheese was placed. When the server brought our bill, he did not bring a pen to sign my slip. A bunch of little things but they added up. Hopefully our next experience will be better.“

“I went to visit my cousin who recently move to the area from CA. I live in Arizona and researched bars in the area. This was rated high so I went. All I can say is that this place is awesome! Great environment, people were way cool and drink are excellent in price! Great job everyone! Can't wait to go back!“

“Best Bier Garten around Great Service and Food“

“This is a spot my family and I frequent quite often. We love the atmosphere and especially the staff. They are always friendly and welcoming and make us feel at home. It is like one big family there, they remember you and always make you feel special. The food is terrific! We love the Friday fish fry with potato pancakes and their clam chowder is delicious! My son is crazy about the Mac and cheese. Their burgers are great as well and they have a special on Thursdays and they are only $8.95. (They even have gluten free buns if you prefer that!) They have wing nights on Tuesdays and bingo every other week which is always fun. 10/10 would recommend!!!“

“Awesome Fun Place to have a good time and Honor our Hero’s, Veterans of our US Military all branches represented .“

“We attended a family wedding at Milwaukee Ale House on 10/5/24. The party staff was AMAZING. They were professional, attentive, and kept things running smoothly. Sue the coordinator is top notch. She met us the morning of the wedding so that we could set out centerpieces and other decorations. She has great ideas and is super easy to work with, she definitely knows what she is talking about. Jason the bartender makes amazing drinks and is very creative, the best drinks I've had in a long time. Jason also was a pro at handling a guest that had too much to drink, he sensed it and dealt with it in a way that did not embarrass the guest at all. Jamie was working that night as well, she is organized, fast and handled some last minute table changes without a complaint. Sue, Jason and Jamie were wonderful and deserve a pay increase for the services they provide, I am sure they are not making what they deserve. It's not often you come across such hard working individuals and it was truly a pleasure. I will not hesitate to recommend the Milwaukee Ale House to anyone that is looking for a wedding/party venue.“

“Very delicious. Ordered chicken satay with peanut sauce and some spring rolls for pickup everything was so delicious will be back !“

“My friend and I had a salad, hers with chicken, mine a Caesar with shrimp. Excellent. My dressing was homemade. Our server, Roberta, was a total treat. She played right along with us and our funny responses to her comments and questions. I've been a Spanky's diner for around seven years and am delighted when friends want to meet there.“

“Food is still very good even though they have a new Executive Chef. I will definitely go back to dine again.“

“Everything was excellent!“
