We were in town for a event. Found this place & devices to check it out…read more It was a good choice. The place was busy. We checked in and sat at the bar waiting to be seated. Had a couple drinks that were mixed well, old fashioned and a Malibu & Diet Coke. Then decided to just eat at the bar. We ordered chicken littles, fries, Chicago & western hot dogs. Roasted beets , potato truffle soup. All of this was so good. The soup was amazing. The Hot dogs were surprising, off the daily special menu. Topped it off with a red velvet cheesecake. So good. The place had a great vibe and lots of character. Would do it again when back in town

Introduction including Milwaukee Sports:…read more Final of 3 reviews representing 3rd quarter of 2021 in scrapbook series is Brat House. In September 2021, I went on a Chicago/Milwaukee vacation. I attended 3 baseball games: White Sox, Cubs, & Brewers (in chronological order) on 3 consecutive days with my friend who joined me for the vacation. Of the 3 baseball games I went to my conclusion is Go Brewers! My favorite basketball team, Phoenix Suns, where I'm from before living in the DC area the past 15 years, lost to Milwaukee Bucks in 2021 championship, which was disappointing. But I was happy for the Bucks as they seemed to be a nice team and was glad it wasn't Lakers, Knicks, or Spurs. Speaking of the Bucks, Milwaukee Brat House is right by where the Bucks play in what they call the Deer District. Experience: My friend was a bit crazy. He wanted to go to a baseball game a 4th consecutive night for a 2nd time in a row for Brewers. As great of time as I had, I wanted to see other things in Milwaukee. So, I drove around the around seeing various things. Then, I was trying to figure out what I wanted to eat for dinner and gravitated to the deer district area. I walked along Doctor MLK Jr Drive, a nice corridor with various bars & restaurants. I settled on Milwaukee Brat House. I ate outside as it was pretty busy, was hungry and just wanted to eat. I ended up getting a bratwurst and cheese curds. I think they had BOGO beer as I had 2 beers (as pictured). Brat was great, but I stopped eating pork not long after; so I'd probably get a standard hot dog. The #1 selling point for me was getting cheese curds. When in Rome in Wisconsin, I wanted more cheese curds. They were awesome! The beer was great too; I purposefully picked some local beer company. The server was nice & helpful too. Overall, a great choice.

If you're in Milwaukee and looking for a great place to grab a brat, Milwaukee Brat House is…read moredefinitely worth a visit. It was a busy location, which is always a good sign, but the service kept things moving. The giant pretzel was excellent--crispy on the outside with just the right amount of salt and perfectly soft on the inside. The variety of dipping sauces made it even better. The cheese curds were also delicious and are a must-try if you're visiting Wisconsin. The bratwurst was very good and full of flavor. Overall, everything we ordered was enjoyable, and I'd definitely recommend stopping by Milwaukee Brat House if you're in the area.

Great spot for hair of the dog. We were in town for a friend's wedding. We came here with some…read morefriends to try the burgers and blood marys. We sat outside on a gorgeous day. Our waitress was great very kind. Quick service! I had the baconado Bloody Mary and our other friend had the cheesehead blood Mary. And who knew a blood Mary came with a Miller lite chaser?! But it totally works. All the greenery and add ons on the Bloody Marys were a great little appetizer. And the bacon wrapped jalapeño cheese balls weren't spicy at all. I got the plain cheeseburger since I wasn't too hungry and it didn't finish the burger. The taste was great. The guys got the cheese curds and raviolis to start which they liked. My husband got the Wisco. Which was huge and he couldn't finish it. But the taste was great like a heart attack on a plate but so worth it. We had a great time sharing our first meal as a group on this wedding trip! Warning about their parking lot it's like on a grade 4 mountain.

The flavors were outstanding and you could tell the beef was fresh. The chorizo and Chipotle Jack cheeses on the Big O really complemented each other. We added grilled onions to The Hongo burger which was a nice addition and went great with the grilled mushrooms. The restaurant is nicely decorated and has a mix of high top and regular height tables as well as seating at the bar. Our server was great; very pleasant and attentive while hustling like crazy. Highly recommend this restaurant and we will be back!

They start you with free bacon grease popcorn, it was tasty, you can for sure taste the bacon! The staff were efficient, quick, nice. I got a German beer, and a soda water, my partner did as well. My kiddo got a lemonade. For appetizers we got the pretzel sticks, and the curds with marinara and ranch. So good! Both were well seasoned and delicious. For meals, I got the chicken Caesar salad wrap, with fries. It was good, creamy, and I had crispy chicken replace the grilled. The fries were good. My partner got the Cajun Mac and cheese with chicken and the waitress suggested a side of fries, he said it was very good. My child got the pepperoni pizza, they have a 12inch pizza and it was enjoyed! Definitely recommend for dinner when you're about to go to a show or if you're in the area!

Von Trier looks like an historic German beerhall and lounge, with wood beams, a chandeleir made of…read moreantlers, and a walls of tapestry murals, a beer garden, and wall-full of steins. There's been a bar here for nearly 100 years, and it's been Von Trier's since 1978. Closer to hometown fame, theres a picture of the Pabst Mansion over the bar, as Panst was founded here in Milwaukee. In fact Von Trier's chandelier is the original from the mansion. The one currently in the mansion is a replica! We showed up as a group of 12, and were seated and served right-away. Good German foods: giant but light pretzles, tender flavorful spaetzle, the best (brat)wurst, (well i thought it was funny). More bests: The best fried cheese curds ever. Crispy coating over rich cheese. Not very squeaky though, so amybe you lose that to get the coating super-crisp. And the best, best wings ever! In a German beerhall! Who knew! So light! Mildly spicy tossed so lightly in BBQ, not soaked until soggy. If you drink 7 one-liter steins of beer in 7 (i think) days, the Stein Meister will issue your official stein in their display! Choose from around seven German beers on tap, plus several more internationals on tap, plus Guinness on tap, and of course more in the fridge. To keep The Stein, have at least one stein per month for a year. You can miss one month. Don't miss two! There's only 50 steins! New ones only come open when someone misses! We wish this beer-y wing-y curd-y treasure was in our neighborhood.

However, the continuous construction (I feel like it's been since 2012??!!) is always extremely discouraging and parking is like the survival of the fittest. The pub itself has a similar vibe to Three Lions. I ADORE the Union Jack painted on the ceiling and red English phone booth. It is reminiscent of a stereotypical "English" pub (and yes, I have been to many - mostly outside of London - in the past 3 years). There was only one employee working at my time of visit, and maybe 10-15 other patrons. I ordered the Ruben rolls, which were great but left in the fryer 2 mins too long. Sadly, they did not have any of the ciders or beers I longed for.... which is understandable these days due to tariffs. I definitely plan on going back to see what the vibe is like during World Cup matches.

Both were fab. No clue what my boyfriend had but he seemed happy. The child had 2 local root beers and he loved them. We planned to stop in for one quick drink bc we were waiting for the trolley and it wasn't scheduled to come yet. Then they said they were going to start quizzo. We aren't really quizzo people but I went up and asked if we could just do maybe the first of the 6 rounds. The cost was $1 per person - and she told me the child is free. (Jokes on her bc 11 year olds know a lot more random trivia than I do). We had so much fun that we stayed the whole time. Side note: it seemed like a lot of groups were cheating around us. But we were legit playing w no devices... hence we lost haha. Also while we played trivia they had The Breakfast Club on silently in the background - so fun!!! If I lived in the area I would come here all the time. It's a great bar selling a great product.

With the Brewers playoff game on, the place was bustling. It was a tidge calmer at the bar, where I was sitting. Patrons and staff were all cool. After perusing the tap list I asked friendly Andy if he would drink the Dunkel, MC Hammerschlagen or Louie's Demise? Andy replied: I could let you try them and then decide. Well alrighty then! I opted for the delicious Dunkel. The tap room was inviting & spacious, beertenders were wonderful & parking was pretty easy on the street. thanks Eagle Park for being such a delightful wrap up to my day of Milwaukee brewery hopping. Looking forward to my next visit when I won't have an agenda to make it around town and can make a day of it in your digs, cheers!
