Their current winter "Port No 6" menu has drinks starting at $12 but you can tell they put a lot of care into each creation. We stopped by on a Wednesday before 6pm and they did offer $2 off tap beers so I got a zombie dust tulip for $5. Not bad! Staff are friendly but things may move a little slower due to the care they put into their cocktails. This is definitely reminiscent of island vibes. Wait for a good drink and relax at the bar or outer patio (which has heaters in the winter). Street parking is pretty easy to snag, even around dinner time.

Izzy's is the epitome of a local corner tavern so stop by, have a beer, chat with your neighbors and maybe watch the Brewers but don't expect much else.

I had heard about the Tin Widow's holiday pop up being one of the best area, the hype was not wrong. From the entrance to the ceiling and walks, this place is the definition of deck the halls. Unless you get here right when they open it early in the holiday season, I would expect a crowd. The drink menu is so fun with holiday themed drinks served in matching glassware. You can even purchase the glass/mug for an additional fee. A lot of the cocktails looked to be batched cocktails which help with the bartender's efficiency. Highly recommend making this place a holiday stop. I'm also curious to stop in after the holidays to experience it without all the holiday decor.

They had several seasonal cocktails in special festive cups, which you could also buy to take home. I got the Cheery Cherry Chocosaurus, which was good, but pricey for what it was. Almost all the seasonal drinks were $15 each and didn't seem too big. The venue itself is medium sized, but feels crammed quickly. There's more people let in at a time than there is seating, so you have to move fast to get a seat. I'll likely come back during the summer to try something else.

You can email, you can call...do not plan on a response.

This really caused a lot of undue stress around booking an employee party. Hire better management. This is the worst customer service we've had in the entire Milwaukee area. After all of that...The ambiance is cool, the servers are friendly, and the drinks are good.

Their location, situated at the end of the strip, made finding parking a breeze. The staff was helpful in the selection process and came back to the table to ensure everyone was enjoying it. Even after we settled on a Boudreaux Blanc, the staff, hearing I wasn't the biggest fan of whites, came back to offer me a sample of a red he thought I may enjoy. He was 100% right. They have ample outdoor seating which we utilized this evening. Luckily this evening, the villages 4th of July festivities were also happening so we had some live music to enjoy as well. Finally, while they put together a tasty charcuterie board themselves, they also team up with other village establishments to offer more food options that can be delivered right to your table at Vintage 38. Tonight we needed something a little more so went with a pizza. It's a great option to enjoy a perfect evening in the Greendale village.

I stopped by before a movie recently and enjoyed my experience. Me and my cocktail/movie companion enjoyed a drink in the bar and another to take into our movie. They have a few fun seasonal specialty cocktails. They were a little more on the sweeter side, so I opted for a bourbon smash. The bartender wasn't sure how to make one but was more than willing to google and attempt, which she did and the drink was great. I'd definitely stop in here pre or post movie. We were there on a Sunday evening and there was plenty of seats available. They have bar seating as well as a few tables (and a fun tucked away booth if you're in a group!). Get to it!
