Pubs near Saint Francis

“This was the cutest little bar I have been to. Everyone was very welcoming and friendly. The pizza was amazing and the drinks were great. The bartender was super nice and made sure to tend to everyone. They also have darts, pool tables and other games. It was a lovely experience. I highly recommend checking it out. Definitely was a great night!“

“Really fun restaurant/bar. We got to the restaurant in the middle of the afternoon and it was absolutely packed. I usually would have walked away honestly... but my friends really wanted to eat here, so I reluctantly agreed to stay. We were seated in 10 minutes! I was shocked at how fast it was. I would have guessed it would have taken an hour. Anyway, they took our order right away and the food was fast and excellent. I had a salad with blackened fish. EXCELLENT! I recommend it for sure. Not sure when it's less busy, if ever... but worth a wait if you have to.“

“Visiting Milwaukee for the day and had to stop in 3rd St Market Hall…once I saw Mr. Wings I had to give the Gold Digger bone in wings a try… and I’m so glad I did. ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. Hot, fresh, and crispy! The sauce was a perfect pair with the hefty wings. If there were more than 5 stars I’d give it. Looking forward to trying other flavors soon.“

“Fantastic burgers at any price, but for $10.75 you get the Big O, or a little less for the other burgers. Sides are great. Service is great (and usually pretty fast). Have yet to have a bad experience, and I don’t expect I will. I go out of my way to come here for lunch. Truly a hidden gem, although probably not for much longer.Parking: There’s a significant curb to get over to get into the parking lot. If you drive a low car, park on the street.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“Burgers & Bloody Marys were great. I had the Loser burger. Fries nice and crispy. Service was very good despite being busy & they gave us a free choice of a sugar cookie or chocolate chip cookie to all in party when check was received. Nice surprise. A bit of a wait initially & parking not always the easiest but worth it!“

“Heaven was easily the GREATEST bartender I think I’ve EVER came across in my time of drinking and going to different bars around the country. I can’t believe how nice she is and how fast she moves around the bar. Most bartenders ignore people for a bit of time before getting to them but she not only got to me and everybody else faster than I’ve seen in the longest time but she also was able to hold conversation and able to do her job at the same time. If she’s here I WILL be back.“

“Came upon this little gem when looking for a place to have some drinks before a show and so glad we did! This place is so cute, it’s small but it’s very nice inside and has that nice feel of comfort. When we got there it was slow but it quickly got busy and the bartender, Christina, was the only one there besides the cooks and she ROCKED it. She remained collective and calm during the rush that came out of nowhere. The food is also amazing, while we only had a couple of apps, the burgers looked insanely delicious and we are definitely going back to try them.“

“Very nice, extremely clean, fantastic drinks, great vibeCan't say enough about the place. Laid back, easy going and great conversation. The owner was super cool and engaging.... We were genuinely welcomed. The bloody Mary was delicious and the espresso martini was top notch. Thank you for your generosity....“

“We saw all of the great reviews & decided to check it out. Laid back corner pub with the famous Stephanie and Nicole running the show. Fish fry was fantastic. Stop in and say hi, order some food, shoot some pool and of course have an adult beverage or two. Great to see they are big supporters of veterans.“

“It's a bar. They serve "bar food" but oh boy, it's good bar food. A bit greasy and salty and yummy. Couldn't eat there every day but I can honestly say that my bratwurst was so overloaded with delicious toppings that it may have been the first brat I was tempted to eat with a knife and fork. The pretzel bun held up though, so I was able to use (two) hands.“

“I made my first visit to O’Brien’s and loved it. Laid back, fun atmosphere, nice owner, and Chaz, an excellent server. We ordered Guinness (of course), the Mac and cheese and a burger. The food was delicious. This is a new favorite place and we’re definitely going back!“

“Pete’s is a great little pub, especially in contrast to most of the other options on Brady St. It’s definitely a sports bar (and a great place to catch early morning football matches or F1 races!), but without all the neon and cheesiness, and with unexpectedly great drink options. The food menu is full of great versions of popular pup foods, and the staff is always really friendly and good at what they do. You do have to order everything at the bar (vs. servers and table service) which can be a little cumbersome and hectic when the pub gets busy, but it’s not really something that takes away from the experience as a whole. Overall, highly recommend this place!“

“Stumbled upon this place while in Milwaukee for work. It is located not far from my airport hotel. Great neighborhood bar with a lot of locals. Talked to several, and they were all very friendly. The bartender, Erin, was very friendly, fast service, and liked to smile and joke around a little. Drinks were good, and the prices were too. I ordered a pizza around 9pm. Came out in a reasonable amount of time and was better than expected. Will definitely stop back in next time I'm in town.Vegetarian options: A few options for vegetarians. Pizza or salad.Parking: Small parking lot, but there is also street parking.“

“I stopped in for lunch and ordered the Italian beef wraps and I was NOT disappointed!!!!! They were absolutely delicious. Great crunch, great texture, and it finished with the right amount of heat. It was so good to me that I didn't even use the dipping sauce!! Thanks for the great food!!!!“

“The rooms are clean, the beds are comfortable and you have an awesome bar to socialize in right next to it. Jay has weekly rates as well as monthly. Awesome guy to talk to and has a great place to stay.Parking: The motel parking is a little tight, but plenty of room to park my dually.Across the street from the bar there is another parking lot that has lots of room as well.“

“Amazing. I've never been to a sports bar where they were interested in the same sports I was. As an Arsenal fan, I recognized the logo and name immediately and had to check it out. The bartenders were super friendly and the people there were so kind. Can't rate the booze, cause I didn't have any. Canned Coke was cold though ?“

“I always see this spot posted all over Reddit so I thought it was time to check it out. It's a nice walk from the Third Ward and also right on the Green Line. Parking can get tight but there is a paid lot nearby. The place was pretty busy which caused slower service, but staff remained attentive. The bar and dining room both had plenty of seating. This would be a great spot for large groups! I ordered a glass of wine and the Eggplant Parmesan sandwich with a side caeser. I was disappointed in the wine list, especially for an Italian restaurant. The glass of wine I ordered was pretty stale which makes me think they might not sell a lot of wine. Again, odd for an Italian restaurant. The sandwich was excellent. It had perfectly crisp eggplant with a flavorful marinara and plenty of cheese. I like that they serve giardinera to add some extra crunch and spice to the sandwich. I would love to return for the pizza that I read so much about! The food was amazing!“

“Fast upbeat service with a cool crowd. I enjoy the open Jam they just started doing monthly. Only Improvement I can see is that perhaps the dart league could be on a different day than the open Jam, this way people are not bumping into each other so much.“

“My partner and I have been going to this neighborhood bar for about 3 years now. They have friendly bartenders and patrons, great rotating craft beer list, classic dart boards, and the fizziest drinks in bayview! If you're looking for a place to relax or cheer on local sports teams, this is your spot!“

“For many years Von Trier has been the quintessential German bar in Milwaukee's east side. I used to live so close to it and now that I'm no longer in Wisconsin I miss it. Von Trier is, I should say, more German than many of the German bars I've visited while traveling in Germany. Tradition is important, and you can see that from wall to wall, ceiling to ceiling, you can see that in the decoration and the style. Von Trier has an impressive and large selection of beer, and I think for any fan of German beer, or just good beer in general, you'll definitely find something to stimulate your palate and placate your thirst. I visit Wisconsin once a year and I always come back here. Good memories and good beer. As it should be.“

“The wings were amazing! A semi-spicy dry rub that is completely worth the wait (and there will be a wait, especially on the Wednesday night wing special). Fairly priced beer with an awesome bartender. The only downfall for me was the music was a little loud, and one of the speakers in the back room is blown out so doesn't sound good on certain songs.“

“Cool bar, great vibes. Went there during winter and found a cool regular spot to hang at. Veronica was awesome. She taught us the ways of Milwaukee bar dice, hooked us up with some souvenirs to take home, and all around fun conversations. Definitely gonna visit Nomad whenever I'm in Milwaukee next.“

“Hands down one of the best establishments in the greater Milwaukee area! The food is amazing and CHEAP, as are the drinks. The bartender is a woman of the highest class, and the patrons open and friendly. It's like a blast from the past, few places of this caliber exist anywhere in the United States. It's up to us to give it the business to keep it here!“

“Corner bar atmosphere. $48 for prime rib, other steaks equally expensive. NY strips were incinerated beyond medium, ordered medium rare. I sent mine back. The others in my party were done eating when I finally got my replacement. Will I return? Maybe, but I won't order a steak.“

“You won't be disappointed in the food, its really good. I just can't get over the beer prices.. 10 dollars for a beer is insane. 7-10 dollars for craft/local beer.. shooo. The food is worth checking out though. ??? Get the Half-Chicken if you want something fried and fantastic.“

“A friend of mine took me to this bar. It's a gay bar, I guess. I'm not gay, but the atmosphere was nice and friendly. I played dice at the bar. The drinks were good. I will probably go back again. It was pretty laid back, and being a straight guy there, I didn't feel any pressure to do anything other than enjoy my drinks, and just talk to the other patrons.“

“Fun and lively place to have a beer and watch soccer! Classic German beers are available as well as some rotating American/local ones. The food is also excellent. I’ve had their pretzel, corned beef with French fries, and sausage platter. All are delicious. They have live polka music on Friday evenings along with free drinks from a keg of beer they tap at 6pm (first come, first serve until the keg runs out). It’s street parking, which can be a pain depending on the time of day and what else is going on in the Deer District but I’ve always been able to find something.“

“Had some time on my hands and was driving by and noticed that the bar was open and decided to stop in for a quick beer and to use the facilities . Swift Kick is a fairly small and simple corner establishment with a one of those neat horse shoe shaped bars with the back bar in the center , you can see pretty much everyone that is there and I thought that was nice . The woman behind the bar was very nice and was eager to ask how she could be of service . The afternoon that I stopped seemed to have an older clientele and they were all friendly . It's clean and I would certainly stop in again if in the area . Parking is all on the street . If ya like quaint little spots , stop by and check out theSwift Kick Pub .“

“Best g*****g pizza in the whole state! I met my partner here. This bar has such an intimate personality and friendly bartenders, one would be wont to think that they are back in their hometown, supping succulent drinks with all their old friends at an intimate dive! Getting Hosed on Brady is possibly the best night one could have on Brady!“

“ok. so we got food brought in to work. I got to lunch about an hour after it got there, no problem. the food was so good and such high quality, I didn't need to reheat it. that's right... ate it cold and it was still amazing! 5 Stars my friends, without a doubt.“

“My husband is a huge soccer fan so we decided to do the rehearsal dinner for our wedding this summer at the Red Lion out on the back patio. It was the most perfect venue and meal! Our friends and family raved about the food and planning everything (including drink tickets, menu, and dealing with a year long postponement during a pandemic) was easy with their event coordinator. We were able to play games on the deck and mingle and had plenty of room when a few extra unexpected guests arrived. Would recommend for any event!“

“I stopped for a few drinks, the bartender was very friendly and made sure to take care of everyone. They have a great beer mostly in cans so you have to go with a classic Miller High Life and the brandy old fashioneds were muddled by hand and use their own branded brandy.“

“Superb Bloody Mary's! Friendly service! They have a really large bar and lots of seating. You can see the TVs, which is great! Great food, too! I went here with my dad and it was great because we could listen to music and still hear each other!“

“I go to Paddy's once a month for a vampire LARP. The game is always fun but having a bar in the middle of a play zone is great because you can grab whatever, whenever. No food that I'm aware of though.Parking: Park on street or there's a paid lot near the bank that is available.“

“While strolling through the downtown area seeing decorations we came upon the Old Third street shops. After browsing through Usingers and the Cheese Mart, we decided to nosh on something at Maders. The pretty holiday lights added an enchantment to the whole experience. We chose the Tiger shrimp Mac, liver dumpling soup and the grilled salmon salad. All were amazing and exceptional tasty. We topped it off with a warmed cup of Holiday Gluvein to add to the spirit which warmed us up nicely.“

“While out doing the weekend lunch and shopping thing I thought that I would stop here for an adult beverage and check out a new place because I like new experiences. 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.“
