    For my birthday, I was gifted a ONE TIME WHEEL THROWN POTTERY CLASS at Murray Hill. I have to say I…read morewas a bit nervous at the start. The unknown definitely had my mind racing. Luckily, the instructors at Murray Hill are friendly and patient, which made the experience truly enjoyable. The actual process of throwing clay and forming is tricky and personally speaking, is going to take me more than one time to feel comfortable, but thanks toEmily and Meghan I'm not afraid to try. Only disappointment is that you have to pick from a small number of glazes. The colors and effects didn't thrill me all that much. An option would be to open up the full allotment of glazes with a small fee, providing the patrons to express their individuality.

Having never done anything like this before but always wanted to try, I didn't know what to expect, this ended up being more challenging than I had anticipated. Classes are offered regularly and are a great value, given the everything you get to experience! We were cheerfully greeted and walked back to the wheel throwing area, where everything was explained to us to help us understand how the evening would go. Once class started and instructions were being provided, I was slightly overwhelmed at the many steps involved in creating something so simple, with our instructors hands making it look so easy. Luckily, we had plenty of time, plenty of material to work with and two instructors to give us tips and support throughout the night. Once the pieces were formed, we walked over to another table and chose the glaze from the choices available. For those who were more skilled at the wheel throwing and managed to make more than the two pieces included in the price of the class, they could purchase the additional pieces for $5, which I thought was incredibly reasonable! Pickup of our pieces will be in 4-6 weeks and I'm looking forward to seeing how they turn out. There is also the option to buy pieces created by the staff from their storefront, especially if you like other glazes /designs that you weren't able to choose from for your own pieces. The evening was a lot of fun and I'd love to come back here to try my hand at a few more pieces!

Prices are $15-$18 depending on the day. Brayson was our tour guide & gave an interesting overview of the history of Sprecher & beer/soda making so you can enjoy your drink better armed with the background knowledge. You can also skip the tour & freebie glass & just get the tastings for $10, a fantastic deal. Drink: I loved the non alcoholic beer. The best NA beer I've had. I would describe it as having a complex flavor profile with something vanilla like. The 2 other beers I tried were ok, good, not great. I'm mostly sugar free on the weekdays, minus the sugar I use in cooking so the sodas were way too sweet for my very personal taste. I liked the maple root beer the best. Food: The pretzel is gigantic, so fun & great for sharing. Extremely delicious. Pillowly goodness with mustard dip & cheese dip, both yummy. Service: Great tour, great bartender & service. Don't forget to have some cash for the tip jar. Ambiance: It's a casual bar setup. Pro tip: You must get the pretzel. I will be back for this & the non alcoholic beer.

    Sprecher is truly a special experience, worth the drive out of your way to enjoy. Whether or not…read moreyou're a fan (or even aware of) their root beer, you will be a fan of the company and its story after your tour. An interesting tidbit: the company developed its root beer as a way to entertain the kids of adults who were enjoying the alcoholic beverages. Definitely, definitely, definitely do the tour. Check Groupon for potential deals. The tour includes a couple of free alcohol tastings and all the non-alcoholic beverages you care to enjoy.

    Vibe - weird. It's in a basement and smells like it…read more We had a work function here and the communication wasn't the best with our Bars and Rec reps as we found out as we arrived that they would have food out then we'd do a demo and start golfing. The spread was laughable for the price paid. The pizza was probably the best value. What sucks the most is that they take everything away after an hour and a half, even the "safe to leave out" things like pretzels. You can't leave food out that we paid for, especially if it's not a health concern? Maybe provide boxes so people could take things home? Wasteful and disappointing. The pizza and garlic bread got the best reviews. Cheese and veggie tray were what you'd expect. The staff behind the bar were friendly and quick to help, but I wasn't a fan of the demo provider. Spoke quietly and was upset that the group couldn't hear him though it was pretty full in the event space with another party who was already underway. The idea was unique enough but you'll need extra time to set up the courses. Overall, not impressed with this venue. Recommend any other Bars and Rec instead.

We had a reservation, and it was only our group and the staff, which was nice and private for us to go wild. We split into teams and had 30 minutes to build our course. I will say ours was the best. After that, we all took turns trying out each other's courses. It was so much fun, and I would definitely recommend it for a team/office outing or just a party with some friends/family.

    Took my boyfriend to Triple Taproom last Friday evening for dinner and some fish fry! The last time…read moreI went to Triple Taproom it was called "Haciendas" before! It wasn't too busy so we were able to get some booth seats- we had some brisket rolls and elote corn for appetizers and they were sooo good, the rolls had a nice spice to them! I got their Friday fish fry while my boyfriend got the jalapeño popper burger and we loved our entrees! The battering of the fish fry is def one of my favorites in the area, and my bf loved their burger! My bf (a beer lover) said this place has been one of his favorite breweries he's been to in the MKE area! I had the Wisconsinitis while my boyfriend got their barley beer Deeply Rooted and he was looooved the barley beer! He was sad when they couldn't bottle it up and I don't think triple tap sells it bottled or may be out! Otherwise- such a good dinner, we'll be back!

    First time here. Came over after see a movie at the Oriental…read more Got here around 5:00 on a Saturday night. The place was about half full. They have a couple of different areas, and the one towards the back had a private event (birthday party). To me it feels more like the name, a Taproom with a Kitchen. It has a good selection of adult beverages and a small, but decent selection of food. The menus are all online, and you go to the bar to order (they have servers to bring you the food). Got a round of drinks (Sangria, Marguaritas, and Old Fashioned). They were all good. For food, we started with an order of the Cheese Curds. They came out hot, with the chili honey sauce drizzled on top, with a side of ranch. They were good, but could have benefited from being cooked longer (some were soggy or cheese not melted). For our dinners, we ordered the Shrimp tacos, Brisket tacos, Veggie Quesadilla, and the Hamburger. Everybody was satisfied, but nobody was all that excited. My Shrimp tacos were just okay. The flour tortillas tops were hard and the lower parts soft (as if they might have been sitting under a heat lamp. The pico de gallo was okay, but it had jalapenos, and I didn't think to ask. (But easy enough to pick out). The whole plate seemed a little thrown together. The burger was the best of the entrees that we ordered. For service, you need to go up and order. It took a while to get someone's attention, but in taking the order, they were friendly and helpful. The food took a reasonable amount of time, but during the meal nobody stopped back to ask how things are. Maybe because we didn't have an actual "server" we were left on our own. It was an okay experience, but not a place that I would see us coming back to.

It's been quite some time since we've visited Lake Park, but I absolutely love it here! We were actually kicking ourselves that we don't come here more often to enjoy nature, as it really is beautiful in all seasons. There is no shortage of trails, short or long, that wind through the park and dip down into the ravines. This includes stairs and some rockier walk ways that lead out to the lakefront. If you prefer to stay on the flat road, you can enjoy the well-paved paths by foot or by bike. We had our stroller along and were able to push it throughout. You'll pass by a golf course, the fancy Lake Park Bistro restaurant, lawn bowling greens, statues, and even the infamous Milwaukee light house. Looking forward to the summertime in hopes that the weekly concert series returns to this park, in addition to the traveling beer garden. My son should be walking soon enough, so we'll no doubt return to let him run free and get some fresh air, while we enjoy views of the lake!

    Music in the park here was awesome! I often enjoy going on walks around here on the various paths,…read morebut stopped by music in the park this past week, and it was so much fun!
