Downtown is the center of it all. It's where it all happens. But, many Milwaukeeans have the perception that downtown shuts down at 6 o'clock, when the office workers flee for the neighborhoods and suburbs. Not true! Our city center has a wealth of night spots that are fun, exciting and interesting. Here are a few of them.
Ardor Pub & Grill
607 N. Broadway Ave.
Technically, Ardor is a restaurant as much as it is a bar, but it landed on this list because it's the only place in the area to drink alcohol in a smoke-free, bar-type environment.
The Pfister Hotel, 424 E. Wisconsin Ave.
Perched atop The Pfister Hotel, this hot Milwaukee nightspot offers some of the best views of the city. Sample wine from its exclusive wine flights, sip
lavish cocktails and enjoy the beauty that is Blu. A wonderful place for a drink before or after your night on the town.
Brother's
1213 N. Water St.
Features American fare grilled food and a wide variety of alcoholic beverages.
Buck Bradley's
1019 N. Old World 3rd St.
Featuring the city's longest bar, Buck Bradley's is a solid choice for before or after a Bradley Center event. Features casual dining and a sports bar on the second floor.
Buckhead Saloon
1044 N. Old World 3rd St.
Casual yet classy, Buckhead brings a touch of Aspen to Milwaukee. Provides live music or djs most nights.
Calderone Pub
322 W. State St.
The relatively new Calderone Pub offers an extensive menu of both sandwiches and beverages.
The Corner
1237 N. Water St.
This bar is, indeed, on the corner of a very popular strip of college watering holes. So grab your lampshade and get ready to par-tay.
Elsa's on the Park
833 N. Jefferson St.
Located in Milwaukee's picturesque Cathedral Park area, Elsa's is the brainchild of the famous Kopp family and one of the city's coolest restaurants. Casual, yet extremely hip -- Elsa's features half-pound sirloin burgers, pork chop sandwiches, buffalo wings and amazing martinis. Check it out before or after a Milwaukee Bucks game. Rumor has it, it is a favorite of many of the players.
Eve
718 N. Milwaukee St.
The atmosphere takes on a new personality on weekend nights as noise levels double and the social scene picks up, turning an elegant dining room into a full-scale nightclub.
Euro Bar
324 E. Mason St.
Specializes in coffee drinks and martinis, and offers about a dozen dessert varieties.
