Definitely the best chicken wing spot in Milwaukee. I have to stop in every time I'm in town. The wings are I think fried and bake and fried again or some shit ... service is what you'd except from a dive bar and u have to order the food at the bar then they deliver to your seats. Then after 1520 minutes a grumpy old dude brings out your wings. It looks like he's back there pumping out thousands of wings a day loll live the spot and vibes! read more

Love stopping in local spots. Stopped in to grab some quick bites. They don't do to go orders and you have to dine in. The menu is also electronic which you have to pull up on your phone. It's definitely a college hangout spot from what I could tell, plenty of college kids on their watching the game and hanging out. The food was cool. Nothing that'll knock your socks off but it's good bar food through and through. They have a little set up where you can make a makeshift carry out with trays and aluminum foil to take your food with you. Oh and they are also limited on the beverage choices unless you're a beer drinker. read more

Ordered 6 wings and a burger, after waiting 50 minutes I asked the bartender how much long and they said shortly... It was almost an hour wait at 6pm? The burger was placed on wet, cold leaf lettuce and did not have bacon on that said it would on the menu. The place is like a self serve restaurant that tacks on a15% tip and then when you do pay it asks how much more do you want to tip? For What?? read more

A fun, laid back pub with the best wings I've had! They only come in one flavor and they do it well. The signature burger was unique and super filling. Just a bit pricey as they charge a 15% service fee on top of the gratuity read more

Still one of the best wings in the city! They aren't small wings like some other spots and they are a standard 12 wings for 20$ after 15% added on tip. Order came out in 5 minutes and one of the best in the city! read more

Wings, yes please! Points east is just east of my son's apartment and he suggested we eat here prior to an Admirals hockey game as it is one of his favorite local places. When his girlfriend found out we were going there she was all in as well. They ID everyone so be prepared for that when you arrive. I can see this place get's very busy and the couple times I have now been there we were early enough to get a table quickly. You order food and drinks at the bar and food runners bring your food. The interior is kind of typical older Milwaukee sports bar. tv's, neon, and lots to look at. There are no "to go" orders much to my son's chagrin. But they always order more that they can eat so they have leftovers. The wings and fries are fantastic. They do a dry rub only but it is super flavorful and just a little spice so nothing to be afraid of. The service is always really quick so we can order, eat and get rolling to the stadium quickly. This has become a staple for us during hockey season! Thanks Points East! read more

Hands down best wings anywhere. Their 21 and above age requirement is a bummer when you have teenager who loves wings and hanging with his folks going out to eat but it's their house so it is what it is. Staff isn't the most friendly but kinda forget about once you start eating them wings. read more

Not pictured but also eaten: cheese curds and a 18 count wing. David and I have lived in Milwaukee over 2 years and this was our first time trying Points East Pub. Dang, have we been missing out!!! Don't make the same mistake we did by waiting to try this place. We had a nice Sunday lunch at Points East since we were both craving wings. All of the staff were so nice, and the place had great vibes along with being well cleaned. The food came out super fast and pipping hot! Cheese curds were delicious (sad we forgot to take a picture). Fries were delicious. We were both glad we tried the Tex-Mex Corn Fritters, however probably would skip them next time. They are good, don't get me wrong, just not our favorite. Okay, now on to the star of the show. The WINGS!! Dang were they delicious. Perfectly charred, fantastic flavor, and a bit of heat that is cooled off with their ranch . Each wing had tons of meat and practically fell off the bone. There's a reason they are known for their wings! read more

We've tried to get seating in the past and they are always so busy. We understand why, the wings are so good. We were able to have their wings several times during the pandemic as a to go order and have been craving their wings for a long time. Tonight was our night. Date night with my husband for the Bucks game. We had the wings and the garlic fries. We weren't a fan of the garlic sauce but the fries were delicious dipped in the ranch that came with the wings. We sat in the back area and enjoyed the quaint area. Our bartender was super helpful and friendly. You order at the bar and the food came quickly. Look forward to more wings in the future. They got the flavor perfect for our liking. Great job!! read more

Points East Pub - Doing work on the delicious wings. Yummy!! - Sports Bars Near Me - Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Wings, wings, wings! This is the place for...you guessed it: wings! Arguably the best in Milwaukee. Now be warned: For those of you who like lots of flavor options and styles of wings (naked, breaded, dry rub) you will be disappointed. They only serve one kind, but the preparation and flavor is so good you'll be happy you didn't have other options. Deep-fried, dipped in their famous sauce and grilled to perfection. A nice medium heat with some smokiness with just the right amount of crispiness. They are incredible! Prices are reasonable too, we got a half order (12 wings) for $14.00. Add a side of fries, which are on point as well! Tons of great beer selections, and the prices are very reasonable. Most pints of really good craft beer are $4.75. Order at the bars, there are no waiters. They will bring you your food and drink. It's a decent sized pub, with a second bar and additional seating in the back. Unpretentious, simple place and it attracts a very diverse crowd. Just a great neighborhood bar with superb wings. Go now! read more

I love wings so my friend decided to take me here. A simple menu, with a simple wing. No extra flavors, no extra seasonings-- you get the OG of wings and it's done perfectly! There is a ton of seating, TVs to watch whatever sport you're into and a nice bar in the back with all sorts of beverages for you to choose from. The drinks are affordable and strong, and the wings were cooked to perfection. This spot was delicious. I've been thinking about the wings ever since I had it. The staff was super friendly and this is a must stop for me whenever I'm in Cream City! read more

WINGS! There's not much more to say. Yes the fries and onion bits are tasty but make sure you get the wings. It's a quick and easy time to order and grab a seat. The volume is an appropriate level for a sports bar. Oh and one last thing.... Did I mention the wings?! read more

I came here with a friend for a quick bite after a long drive from Chicago. My friend has been raving about their wings, so I had to try. Dare I say that these are the best wings I've had in Milwaukee!!! Their wings are grilled and flavorful with a slight kick of pepper. We really didn't need the blue cheese or ranch sauces to add to the flavor. The ambiance was cool. Drinks were pretty good. Service was good. I definitely recommend you try their wings. You will not be disappointed. read more

Wings were great. Whole restaurant is whacked with no service. Guy slammed our food down. Wouldn't speak to us. Ended up not getting the right sandwich because the server wouldn't even tell us what he was delivering. Stupid.. read more

Food excellant, bartender was just the best, but the cook from the kitchen who delivered my food to me and a friend came up from behind me and gave me a shoulder block on my shoulder and dumped the food on the bar. Maybe teach him some manners to say excuse me without physically touching/pushing me aside to deliver our food. Not sure if i will ever return! He needs to be fired/let go b4 i return!!! Not a good business tactic when im assaulted in your place of establisment! read more

The wings are delicious but the service is absolutely terrible. Everyone we encountered from the 2 bar tenders to the person who brought out our food was rude, unhelpful and treated us like an inconvenience. Again, the wings are delicious and I've been here about 4 times but the service is so terrible I likely won't return. It doesn't take much to just be kind and make paying customers feel welcome in the establishment. read more

Stopped in on a weeknight. It was busy but not too bad, waited at the bar for about 5 min while they were clearing a table. In the meantime we were able to get drinks and then sit down. The wings are nice sized here not like the scrawny wings from BW3's. Got a few sides to accompany the wings as well. One of the better spots for wings around town. read more

This place is known for their wings, but I don't really consider them anything special, just average. Always fresh though, and locals seem to love it. When you go in, you're going to see a fairly classic Wisconsin corner bar, but larger. It's always packed on game days. Of the three times I've gone, I've seen disruptive guests get tossed twice and make a huge scene, including one occasion where service to the entire bar was cut off temporarily. This spot attracts a "high energy" crowd! The service was good each time I've been, but again, the food is not a standout for me. If you like TomKen's, you'll probably love this place! read more

My son is a huge wings fan, used to live in Milwaukee and ate here often. Drove from Madison for the Bucks game and hyped him up. Arrived, and 21 or older even for dine in. Never again read more

We've been going to Points East Pub for years and I just realized I have never posted a review. We enjoy everything about Points East.

Hi I have been going to this place for years I never had a problem until now I will never go back reason being soon as I walked in they had a man at the door checking IDs doing garbage not washing his hands and setting up tables unsanitized. I-made it there a lil before 10pm. Ordered me and my boyfriend food when the food came out fries were cold I ordered 6 pieces he ordered 12. When I tell you they gave him 10 drumsticks & 2 flats it was not hot or done just threw us the last of the last they could have said kitchen closed. When I brought it to the man that was bartending that day he argued with me saying I can't do nothing the chicken is done if my boyfriend don't like drums he shouldn't eat chicken I mean the drums where so big. Then he go say ok this one about one of the drums I can see it is big. Then he continued on to say what you want me to do throw all the drumsticks out you get what comes out the bag. I have never been so mad in my life to have someone talk like that to me I almost lost it. I said I am asking you to fix the order no one wants 10 drums it should be half and half he still wanted to argue stating you can take it home, I walked away wasn't about to go back and fourth remind you it was customer their. He embarrassed me and their company when all he had to do was fix the food or take the food give my money back they have a no refund policy. I felt uncomfortable. The place food is really going down they never cook grill the chicken enough I been having to tell them can they cook longer or send back due to not being done but I still kept giving them a try. So be mindful when you order food this is my story I can't speak for everyone else but how rude this person was they don't have to worry about me read more

First off let me start with I walked in and this older lady with glasses behind the bar was being rude to these two African- American women. They left and the older lady with the glasses behind the bar started mocking their "accents" when they left with customers sitting at the bar. Which made me feel EXTREMELY uncomfortable. PLEASE DO BETTER WITH YOUR HIRING. read more

Some people I met at Summerfest recommended this place claiming it's one of the best sports bars in Milwaukee. That's a bold exclamation but Milwaukians are known to tell the truth so I trusted them. And it was rewarded! They claimed the wings is among the best you'll ever have and they aren't wrong. The wings are some of the best I've EVER had with the right amount of smokiness and texture; dipped in that homemade bleu cheese, you couldn't ask for a better bar eats. I played it safe (and cheap) by pairing the wings with bottles of Miller. They do have plenty of bourbon and whisky selections along with beer. Seeing those helped allowed me to connect with a few visitors from Chicago who were also here. We bonded over beers and shots while watching NFL week 1. Speaking of which, there's plenty of TVs showing all the games. The bartender was kind enough to put the colts game on where I sat despite the game being on a different tv. Sadly the colts played terrible and lost so in a random act of kindness, the bartender immediately had another beer open for me although I wasn't finished with mine. Much appreciated. This spot is one of my highlights of the trip. Great food, great people, great bartenders, just a great bar. No doubt this is on my rotation when I visit MKE again! read more

The wings are phenomenal they are cooked on the grill and sauced. I wouldn't waste any time eating wings anywhere else! Because,there is no doubt that points east has the best! read more

Excellent wings and beer variety. Just wish they had other flavors, but I can deal with the ones they have

....Heather is the most awesome bartender ever!! Other bartenders are great and the drinks are strong! Excellent vibe, exceptional food - the best wings I've ever had in my entire life. I'm a huge chicken wing connoisseur and have been for years. We live about an hour away from this pub but definitely return in hopes of seeing Heather and the amazing food. Get there early before the crowd arrives. Place fills up fairly quick on weekends. Vibe is super cool and laid back. read more

Was recommended this place for their wings, so that is what we came here for! Came on a Thursday night and ordered the smallest size of their "famous wings" and texmex corn fritters - YUM. The vibes just seem like your local joint where you would grab a beer, some snacking foods, and watch your favorite team on their many TV screens. Their wings have a dry rub seasoning that was seasoned very well. Wings are a bit on the smaller end, but were so juicy! I don't expect this with 1) small wings and 2) dry rub wings, so this was great to eat! The texmex corn fritters are so delicious. They do have a bit of a kick, so if you are sensitive to spice, I would take serious precautions. I have been eating cheese curds all day (can you tell i'm not from here? haha) so I wanted to try something ~different~. I am SO glad I did. I am a big fan of corn fritters in general and ALWAYS get it at my local state fair, so seeing this on a menu... you already know I HAD to try. Their corn fritters were different than what I am used to. It was cheesy, corny, and spicy. read more

Best wings in Milwaukee. Mythic as to why no takeout or delivery. Good ambiance. Good beer. All around big ups. Wings wings wings.

Recently learn if this place Because a dear friend invited many of us. I gave it a try and from the moment I was trying to make up my mind as to what to order, the bartender lady was so in a rush and so pushy I was almost about to leave but I went ahead and got a few wings. when my wings arrived to the table the young white guy threw them on the table, said nothing, turned around and kept walking. After about 15 minutes 8 more of the guest had arrived and they ordered wings, the same white young guy came and threw the wings on the table. said nothing, did not even know who the wings were for, he just throw them on the other end of the table, turned around, said nothing, and walked away as he gave the wrong person the wings. He needs to be FIRED because he did it a 3rd time and nearly got his AZZ whipped. We left and will NEVER COME again and give you our hard working money. The party I was with contained BLACKS......AFRICAN AMERICANS....3 law enforcement Officers, 2 Fire Fighters, a retired Judge, a Paramedic, 1 Nurse, a Human service worker, 1 Obgyn Doctor, a Professional Arts designer, 1 ER Doctor, and 1 Legal Secretary and a few more others. Your wings were good but not good enough for us to be treated the way you/your staff handled us at Point East Pub in Milwaukee Wisconsin. Retrain your staff on how to treat people equally.....we are DECENT BLACKS/AFRICAN AMERICANS read more

Stick with the Wings. Milwaukeeans rave about the chicken wings at this pub and rightfully so! But, the impossible burger not so much. As a vegetarian it was so nice to have an option other than cheese curds or a basket of fries to order and the hearty veggie topping options were appreciated. However, the bun was chewy and over steamed. The patty was closer to a veggie burger than an impossible patty. We also ordered a full order of garlic fries. The full order was enough for one person; so, the portion was much smaller than we anticipated. The garlic and butter sauce weren't worth it. Next time, we will just stick to a healthy side of mayonnaise or ketchup to dunk the fries in. read more

Terrible service and terrible food. Those wings are pedestrian at best. I'd never go back.

We came to try this place because my husband's coworker raved about the wings at this place and it lived up to the hype. The smokey flavor wings were a hit on our list and we would definitely come back just for them. It took about 30mins for our food to come out on a Wednesday at 7pm. Wings is mild on spice and fries were crispy. Chicken quesadillas was plain and generic. I wouldn't order it again. Nice little pub to grab drinks, eat and chat with friends. Don't forget your ID. They ID everyone as soon as you enter. read more

We got to take advantage of the stay at home order and get to-go wings from points east! This place has awesome reviews and the some wing pride and are usually pretty strict with how their wings are done, no kids, no take out. Even now, you have to call them for curbside pickup and speak with them personally. No delivery, and no leaving messages, no ordering ahead for a certain time, and no internet orders. That said, ordering was super easy - call, order, and drive. Wings were ready in 15 minutes, and a friendly server brought it out curbside and took our payment. Oh, and they also charged an extra $4 for the order. I wish they hadn't. I would have tipped them better. I don't know - I've never been a fan of this 'added gratuity'. It makes me feel like they're telling me how much their service is worth, rather than me deciding how good the service was. There's also a 36 wing limit per takeout. So that's what we ordered. It comes with about 4 sticks of celery per 18 wings and a side of ranch of blue cheese. The wings are fried, sauced, then grilled. It feels like a dry rub because it's been grilled after it's sauced, but the sauce felt to me more like a liquid hot sauce, that is dried up because of the grill. It's actually really good, with kicking flavors. I like that the wings are on the smaller side (though hubby likes them bigger). I must say, the wings are good. It's probably one of the best we've had in the greater Milwaukee area. The only better grilled wings we've had is from Buckets Pub down in Racine. But I'm sure it's a matter of personal taste - I just like the Buckets' dry rub better than Points' hot sauce rub taste better. read more

best wings!!! Garlic fries, burgers, and beer selection is decent. No one under 21 allowed, no exception.

The wings are world class. Prepped on a flat top grill, fried no breading, sauced, and finished on the grill. A perfect crisp, amazing flavor...always a winner. The staff is cool, best experience is sitting at the bar, you get the personal touch. Overall...if I don't make my own wings...this is where I go for them in Mke. The vibe is neighborhood bar meets small sports bar/pub. read more

Stopped by for a quick drink and some of their "famous" wings. Bartender was super friendly and the food came out super fast. The wings tasted very good. The only thing holding this back from 5 stars were that some of the wings weren't crispy while some were- next time I'll order extra crispy on the wings and see if that makes a difference. Still, I would definitely recommend stopping by if wings & beer are your thing! read more
