I've been going to Kelly's Bleachers for about 17 years now. Usually there is always some cute server to take care of me. Today when I came in I was approached by this thing. I was a little concerned at first but he turned out to be a lovely man. He was well aware of the specials for the day. I chose the swedish meatballs. They were delicious. Reminded of times well spent at Ikea while my girlfriend was shopping and I had to get away from the 12 aisles of assorted tea light candles. Anthony was quick to refill my beverage. He checked on our table a couple times during our stay. It turns out it was Anthonys first day back to work after a lovely vacation to Italy with his wife. He seemed more than ecstatic to hear all of the great things that happened at his bar while he was gone. I know when I come back from vacation, I usually like to take a couple days before reality sets in. Not Anthony. He needed to get right back to his craft of running his business. Anthony takes pride in what he does and it shows. 3 thumbs up buddy. I think I'll be back one of these days. read more

Kelly's Bleachers - Sports Bars Near Me - Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Great atmosphere! Well managed and even during the wildest times after Brewers games,they were prompt and well staffed including bouncers who control the scene and make sure nobody gets out of hand. Good time everytime at this place! read more

Good bar with decent "bar" food. Friendly and fast bartenders and waitresses. We came in on a Thursday night and the place had a good crowd.

Being from Chicago, I have a serious love for WI sports bars where I can binge on cheese curds and $1 beers to begin with....however, Kelly's Bleachers blew me away with their incredible service. The bar was super crowded with packer fans for the playoff game and was crazy fun! The food was pretty great for your run of the mill bar food menu, BUT our server is the reason I gave this place 4 stars! CASEY- you were seriously AMAZING! For as crowded as the bar was, we anticipated having to wait for drinks and food and were totally prepared to do so but I honestly don't think I ever went longer than 3 minutes without a drink in hand, more napkins on the table or her coming around to see if she could offer us anything else!! She was running around serving a bunch of tables and always greeted us with a smile and a positive attitude-in record time! Extra kudos to the bartender and Casey for being accommodating in making a particular drink i wanted. I was craving a mai tai, which the staff was unfamilar with. However, rather than coming to the table and saying "sorry, we wont make that for you", she returned and said "unfortunately, we don't know how to make that drink but if you can tell me how, we can definitely try!" I gave her the ingredient list and it tasted great! Awesome customer service ladies and sincerely appreciated!!! Will definitely go back to Kelly's to catch a game or beers before a game. Also, the jumbo pretzel was so good! ;) read more

I celebrated my 61st birthday here and it was great. All the people here are great. One dollar drinks for my birthday. How can you beat that? The bartenders are all friendly and fast. I feel very comfortable here and I will be back. The DJ was nice enough to play 70's songs in honor of my birthday. read more

What a shit hole. We showed up with my friends bachelor party and they denied 14 people service because we were a bachelor party. Literally told us we couldn't come In. Well if that's the case I will never patronize this shit hole ever. What a joke, go fuck yourselves. read more

I had not been in the place since it was the Main Gate. We went there several times lately and this review is only related to the beer and the atmosphere. It is a friendly place and they have great specials on beer and food throughout the week, so far we've only had the beer. The bartenders are friendly and attentive. You can have a conversation or keep to yourself, a great place to stop. read more

Came from out of town to watch a Packer game. Such a fun, friendly place with all their amazing tvs and drink specials! Had the prime rib sandwich, it was delicious. We were even greeted by the manager, Brandon. We can hardly wait to return! read more

Went here while on vacation @ my grandparents for st. pattys day and had a blast. I paid for like 3 beers and 2 cherry bombs and then the guys around me just started buying drink after drink. Super friendly staff and customers and would definitely go back! read more

A cool bar that is close to the street and in a walkable area with other bars where one can drink and crawl on a weekend. \This place is big and worth a visit and surprisingly the food was pretty above average. A great place to drink and a view of an urban street. I was totally impressed with the neighborhood and the establishments one can come across here. read more

The staff here is the best in town, the food is amazing and the shuttle down to Miller park is by far the most entertaining.

I am super impressed by this place. We came here before a came and were happy we did. They are super efficient so they can get you in and fed and on the bus in time for the game. I believe it was the owner, but he seemed to be running around helping and was very personable. They were really fast! The burgers and pulled pork were great. The pasta salad is a little on the heavy side so I would stick with the fries next time they are good. Their shuttle service to and from the game is top notch. read more

My favorite Sunday night hangout. I admit I have never even come close to the place on a Brewers game day but I would not pass it up after the welcoming way in which I have been treated. Outstanding Local Bar! read more

I really enjoy this place, the bartenders and wait staff are very friendly and I've always had great service.

Great place for Packers games, plenty of TVs. Great beer specials $1 tappers, excellent pizzas.

It is what it is. Main attraction is its proximity to Miller Park and as a later night social bar. Can see the appeal to a wide range of patrons but as a regular rotation place unless focus is strictly on drinking somewhere close to home not so much. read more

Such great service and fun environment! Try music bingo in Wednesdays! I don't know what else to say, but yelp claims my review must be longer. Hopefully this is long enough now. read more

A neat, two-sectioned sports bar which certainly caters to the needs of sports fans across Brew Town. Friendly staff, solid service, and extensive food/drink menus make for an enjoyable experience. Free shuttle service to and from Miller Park is an added bonus. I will revisit Kelly's Bleachers! read more

I cannot say enough nice things about the staff at Kelly's. I held an event there the weekend of the Brewers vs Cubs series, an extra busy there and still, their staff went out of their way to help me out. The owner gave me heads up about what time to get there to save some tables, our server was prompt and polite. I had a mix up with some tickets and they even went out of their way to help me with that sending a shuttle down early so I could run to the box office! In addition to a great staff, the food was tasty and FAST, the atmosphere was fun and still family appropriate. I would absolutely go back, read more

This can be a fun place to have a few drinks with friends... But, for the love of god, do NOT eat the burgers here.... They were so dry with no flavor at all. Service from waitress was also lacking. I won't return again for the food. read more

Such a friendly and helpful staff! We love coming here every weekend and especially love the pong tournaments

Not really a fan of this place unless they redesigned the bar. They played all rap music and the crowd was pretty ghetto. Just not a fan.

Great bar! Great food! Super fun employees...need I say more. A must-stop place when you are in Milwaukee.

Great bar with jukebox music playing or the local ball game. HUGE tvs all around the bar and the back area. The bartenders are friendly and helpful, even though we came in with A's gear game day against the Brewers. Btw... Free shuttle to and from the game. Had their braut and it was on point while the beer was cold. Great pre-game bar or to watch a big game. read more

Great local establishment! We ducked in here to get out of the way of the stomping that was currently happening at Miller Park this last weekend courtesy of STL's finest. Very large double bar layout. Bartender was kind enough to allow us to watch the Masters over a few whiskey and waters. I will probably try this place again on a non-gameday to get a better feel for the place. All in all, this place is worth a stop. read more

Very reasonable drink prices. The burger is fantastic (great smoky taste). Prime rib sandwich also has great flavor. Highly recommended.

This is where the party is after Brewers games!!! Came here after searching on Yelp and was not disappointed!! There's a great energy and it's BUSY. The staff are very friendly and prompt with orders. We'll definitely be back read more

So, I was at Kelly's Bleachers last night for their birthday night, and I gotta say that I had a blast! The two employees that really stuck out to me were the door guys! Charlie I think... They were hilarious, im not sure why they aren't behind the bar! Anyways, 5 stars! read more

Awesome place! Always a great time! Bartenders and waitresses always happy to help. Multiple shuttles to the brewers games and great environment every time. read more

My favorite pub in Milwaukee. I used to come here every Friday and Saturday before the driving distance became an issue (since I live in Waukesha, it's a hike for a drink) but I still try to get down routinely for lunch since the food is excellent for pub food. Good prices, wide selection (including my favorite cider, Somersby, which I can't find in many bars), great staff, and the owners Pat and Anthony are always fun to hang out with. read more

One of the better bars on bluemound. The bartenders are all super cool. The wait staff is always prompt and friendly. There's plenty of room for parties. It gets a little rowdy after brewers games but it kind of makes it fun. Saturday night the back bar turns into a dance party, which adds to the people watching. The food isn't anything special, but it's still really good. If they invite you to play left right center then be prepared to take a cab home. That rail gin gets ya. This is the best pre brewers game stop. The shuttle is very nice and you never wait long. You pay for parking but they give ya vouchers for food or drink, so it's pretty much free. They have some pretty good food and drink specials. Plus they have a birthday party for each month. Dollar drinks if your birthday is in that month. If you stop there and Anthony is working, have him shoot a beer for ya. It's pretty amazing how fast he does it. read more

The co-owner, Pat, is an asshole. He harassed me during opening day, while dancing in a music tent to a DJ. The DJ was grossly overweight and no one was dancing. I saw him whisper to Pat, the owner, later Pat approached me asking me not to dance alone or by myself. I was shocked and thought that was an odd request, since it was a dance tent. He told me to dance with a man (white men present ONLY). I continued dancing and he then approached me once again and said that was my second warning. There were plenty of white women dancing alone and a few dancing with me. I am assuming this is why he was upset. I finally left on my own after he kept following me inside and outside watching me like a creeper. I will never go back again. I've known him for almost 30 years and there is drug usage inside. I'm assuming he is not happy with the fact that I am an attractive, lesbian and African American. He told me that people will assume I am on drugs because I was dancing. That sounds like s comment that a drug user will make. Sorry don't do drugs or middle aged white men. I see they have harassed other women in the past, maybe they are all closeted. I saw the news got involved when they tossed a woman out nude on her face. It seems they have problem with women in that place. Racist at best. read more

My friends & I love going to Kelly's bleachers whether its for a brewers, packer game or just to hang out after work. Their drinks are reasonably priced, really good specials on the weekends. Food is great (delicious wings), they have different deals on food almost every night. Atmosphere is cool, huge bar, lots of pool tables. The owners are super cool, gives us free shots for our birthdays & even sometimes just to show they appreciate our business. We really appreciate that & things like that keep us coming back with more business. I would have given them 5 stars easily however some of the bartenders there need to learn some customer service skills. There's a girl by the name of Kelly, she needs to be checked! She's always rolling her eyes & looks like she hates her job. When she's waitressing instead of coming by and asking us if everything's ok or if we need anything she just walks past us, gives us dirty looks & glares. She's done that a couple times to the point where I want to ask her if she has a problem but to avoid confrontation we just end up going somewhere else. She also sometimes works at the bar. I was there just the other day my friend & I are trying to order our first drinks, she sees me sitting there but she just stands there looking dumb like she didn't see me, when we made eye contact. She then proceeded to go help others first when she clearly did see that I was there first. I was a little frustrated so I said to my friend loud enough so she could hear, "does she not see us here?" Then she comes on over. I'd like to think I'm a great tipper it's always 20% because I work in the tipping industry & I understand that it's how you make a living but she is an exception they way she treats me definitely reflects her tip. When I order drinks I try to avoid her at all costs, I'm sure they split their tips but I would rather give my money to someone who cares. Without your customers your job would not exist, treat them well, they pay your bills. read more

Okay, it's not a high class bar. What Brewer bar is? But the bartenders are really nice, the food is just the kind of greasy you're looking for, and everyone is there to have fun. Set your expectations realistically and you'll have an awesome time here. read more

First time in Milwaukee and I can't recommend this place enough for a Brewers pregame bar. The staff was extremely friendly and was there to offer help whenever needed. The owner even bought us a shot! Woo go Kellys and go Brewers! read more

Good stuff. Friendly people. Good food. Spaghetti and meatball special today. Also 1/2 pound burger. Try the grand slam burger. 4 pounds with fixins. Eat it all in 45 minutes and it's free. read more

The bartenders were friendly. I thought that never happens anymore! The the best on a street of good Brewer bars.

Its always a good time at Kellys. It's like Cheers in the winter and it's packed before and after every Brewers game. Good drink specials, friendly environment, big bar that isn't ever too packed to find a spot to sit or at least stand. The food is some of the best in the area. Kellys Blu balls are awesome, burgers are great and steak wraps are some of my favorite anywhere. The owner is awesome and really takes care of his regulars. read more

I have been to kelly's bleachers before and have enjoyed myself. I've lived and grew up by the area for a long time, so I am familiar with the clientele and atmosphere. However, I can't stress how disrespected and humiliated I was the last time I went there (11/21/15). They displayed what I deem racist and inappropriate behavior (and i am a black man).I went there to attend a birthday party, and was immediately refused at the door because they felt I was "too drunk" of patronize their establishment. First off, I wasn't too drunk. I drove to the bar and parked across the street. Secondly, for the bouncers to glance at me for 2 seconds (and I was in compliance with the dress code ) and come to the conclusion that I am too drunk to come in is absurd. third, my friend who had the party calls me to tell me that they were leaving because her other black friends were denied entry into the bar. Completely racist and unacceptable. They're are plenty of better bars on bluemound (Steve's is fantastic ). I recommend any other bar but kelly's, especially if you are a person of color. read more
