Pourman's is hands down my favorite bar in Milwaukee. Their music is always the best mix of pop,…read morereggae, hip hop, and rnb, their hookahs are the best in the city at great prices ($25) and the cocktails are fabulous. Not a big beer or wine bar. The bartenders have always always been very prompt, kind, and delightful to me. Try their popsicle drink!! They also have one of the quaintest patios in the back with real ivy growing, giant jenga, darts, and full size pool table.

In theory, I understand the appeal of Jo-Cats. It has a bar right when you walk in with some area…read moreto stand around then you go upstairs. To your right is another bar with a bigger area AND a roomy patio. To your left, there is the biggest room with a small stage and the DJ on opposite ends. Wait there is also another patio! There's also a bar across from the patio. You keep walking through Jo cats to the last room in the back with a bar in the middle and another patio! These patios are pretty roomy too. Great places for a fresh breath of air or a smoke break. I've never had a bad time with the bartenders or bouncers. Drinks are solid and do the job. The music is typical bar music. You can definitely wait to hear a song you like. The atmosphere just isnt for me. It can be packed in Jo Cats and it still looks boring. We walked through the entire bar. Not a single song pulled us to the dance floor. I try to only come when there's no cover so I dont feel salty about wanting to leave.

It wasn't too crowded yesterday afternoon so we had plenty of space for our group to move around and hang out wherever. The bartenders and bouncers are all super nice and friendly. We didn't head over to the Duke's side at all, but always nice to know that's an option! We'll definitely keep Scooters as one of our favorite spots!

First night out in downtown Milwaukee and this was the first bar my friend and I went to. It was…read morePACKED, but no line thankfully, unlike all the other bars, but it was also a Saturday night. There was no cover either which was nice and it was a lot of fun. Drinks, fire. Music, fire. People, cool. They have beer pong tables, a shooting hoops arcade game, and darts, which was cool.

This was the spot to be at for the World Cup watch parties. They had a bg screen outside with some…read moretables chairs and bleachers. It of course got packed for the more popular games. You could definitely still find a spot to watch the game. They have tv's everywhere. Watch the game while you order your drink, you can mingle there or find a different tv. The energy was always good. I often went to the watch parties myself and I still had a good time being around this atmosphere. I saw the longest lines for the Mexico games. The line was moving so slow I don't even think it was worth waiting in the line when you can see the screen from the street. I loved that they blocked off Brady St for the final and added another big screen! I noticed that they had a double rail mixer special for $8. I asked if this included vodka red bulls . A bartender told me yes and I paid $8. Next time I paid $10. The next, $12. Thats pretty normal for a vodka red bull anyways. I was just t about the double rail mixer and I wish the pricing was more consistent. The drinks were good every time. The service was also good. Overall, I would come watch other soccer games here. I wonder if they play the Liga MX games. I guess I'll find out soon since that already started!

I called first because C19 killed a lot of small businesses and places don't open until later but they were open. The place was friendly but not very full and it seemed that the few people that were in were possibly owners and employees by the conversation of scheduling and opening for super bowl tomorrow. The place looked clean and it didn't smell which was nice. The two ladies working the bar had no clue what a Gin Rickey was so no drink on me, any bartender who gets it with out asking gets a drink on me and that's only been 2 so far. Overall the place seems like a friendly neighborhood bar.

It was awhile ago when I…read morevisited, so I don't remember much standing out other than it was a Sunday, the Packers were on, and the place was empty save for us and one other patron. I think they had free food. It was very clean for a dive bar and I love the name. Hope to return when life returns to a new normal.

The bartender was very nice though and they had live music on the patio. I didn't eat because of the dog being inside, if it wasn't for that, this place has a lot of potential to be somewhere I'd go on repeat. Unfortunately allergies will prevent that for me.

Drinks are also great, best Bloody Mary I have ever had (make sure to get it spicy) and good espresso martinis. To top it all off, they have a rumpleminze machine iced! GOAT!!

The bartender was incredibly welcoming and warm and gave us his full attention even though there were plenty of other people already at the bar. As a first timer, that really made me want to return. The atmosphere was so cozy. The lighting and temperature were warm and the music was at a good level - not too loud, not too quiet. Though they don't have a pool table - which is what we were after - they have plenty of board games. We had a beer each and played several rounds of Shut the Box. Thanks for the great service! We will definitely be returning with friends.

They were polite, kind and welcoming. The guy sitting next to me gave up his seat for my friend. I bought him a drink to thank him, but he didn't acknowledge it, probably embarrassed. That's typical of Foggy Dew. Nick was our bartender, and he was friendly and answered my barrage of questions. Foggy Dew will be a destination bar for me. The decor was unique, but the differences were subtle. I loved the fact the Dew was in a residential neighborhood. That added to its panache. It was a cool bar. I liked it. I think you will too.
