The tasting we attended was free, and the rep was friendly and knowledgeable. They didn't have a particular wine we were asking about, but offered to order it for us, and it arrived within a few days. If paying with a card, there is a fee, as with many places these days, so bring cash if you'd like to avoid a fee. If you're looking for a good wine selection in Milwaukee proper, Waterford should be on your list.

The chocolates were all super flavorful and had an amazing creamy texture. Clearly high quality stuff. The wines the staff at Waterford paired beautifully! They even let us sample some espresso liqueur and peanut butter tequila to go with our chocolates! The staff was also very knowledgeable and helpful. This is a great little shop with a wide and interesting selection. They also have spirits and I found a lovely bottle of whiskey to take home. All in all, this made for the perfect environment for a Galentine's date! I will be back!

My out-of-town friends played pool, and I have to say, the red pool table was definitely a vibe. Perfect for those Instagram photo dumps if you're like me! I kept it classic with a Modelo and lime--my go-to for a casual night out that still gives a little vacation-in-your-city-kinda-energy that I needed in this cold weather. While we were there, I noticed a sign about their pizzas, which, in my opinion, is a hallmark of a great dive bar. Who doesn't want a late-night snack? Definitely adding it to my list to try next time! The bartender was also fantastic to chat with--she was so welcoming!

True Score: 5 Star Dive Bar…read more Best Decor in Milwaukee This was my favorite bar in Milwaukee. That's saying a lot in this city because old school character dive bars are abundant. You walk into Jamo's and you're immediately and entirely in Jamo's world, which is intimate and unpretentious and dimly lit and anachronistic. It's stuck out of time (it could be 1951 or 1983 or 2002, though the clocks on the wall will tell you it's always after 5) and place (a block from Brady Street, but nestled snugly into its neighborhood, disdainful of the nearby buzz), with its own people and practices, a distinct sense and style. Jamo's is an old corner tavern, the quintessential dive bar. It's the definition of a hidden gem. There are no gimmicks here - besides being cash-only, Jamo's also sells cigarettes, and a young dude comes in and buys a pack at one point - and no real aspirations to be anything more than a simple, straightforward, old-school neighborhood spot with good drinks and good conversation. And it is that. By far the best hidden gem in Milwaukee. A must stop if your visiting. Thanks

I've known Jamo's for years and spent time there in my younger and dirtier days. I'm older and…read morecleaner now, but still enjoy an occasional buzz out on the town. Jamo's is the kind of place to lose yourself in. Steal a surreal moment and disappear into the looking glass of Jamo's. Patrons are friendly, the owner is a Milwaukee icon, and sometimes good looking people show up willing to converse. On the other side of the coin, Jamo's is a neighborhood bar with a heart, taking care of its regulars. I liked observing that after living with the Seattle freeze here in the Pacific Northwest. The bartender can be greedy if you're not a regular, so be careful with your cash, but that vigilance is part of getting that buzz on. Jamo's is Milwaukee noir. Cherish it.

The bar is just outside the campus and within relative walking distance. My friend suggested that we should just go to Remo's so we would not have to drive. I didn't know what to expect really. The bar patrons are kind of an eclectic group. As soon as I sat down, I had an older woman come over and ask if I was interested in some bed sheets/comforter. I'm not into used bed sheets, especially from a dive bar. The bar itself is relatively small, with a few tvs, darts, video slot machines, and a few video games. The drinks here are pretty cheap. If the bartender named "Shooter" is working, ask him for one of his long island ice teas for just $5. They'll knock you on your ass if you're not careful. Speaking of being knocked on your ass, while I was there the owner was having a few drinks at the bar as well. The dude got so drunk that we fell backward off his stool. He could barely even talk. Someone had to drag him out and take him home. If you think the weirdness ends there, you'd be wrong. It so happens that this bar has one of those punching bag games. The bartender " Shooter" got challenged by one of the patrons to get a higher score. Well Shooter ended up breaking his hand on the game. He then began bar tending with his weaker hand for the rest of the night. He's dedicated. Overall, it's a basic bar with some interesting patrons. If you want a good story to tell at the end of the night, this "off the beaten path" type place may be right up your alley.

The guy basically said everyone is welcome, but I'm only one here and I'm slow. He was very nice even with the very drunk people. If you're looking for interesting dive bar this is more interested than many. The guy asked me what I wanted and I was like I'm beyond good. And he gave me a water in a scotch glass and kept telling people it was vodka if it came up. The had Guinness for $8. Otherwise they had several different kinds of light beer and a decent selection of non top shelf liquor. In order to use the stall you have to shimmy/touch the person currently using the urinal. The ceiling tiles in the back look like they are falling down. They have a nice futsbol table and two picnic tables in the back patio.
