"Bar Month" at OnMilwaukee.com is back for another round! The whole month of February, we're serving up intoxicatingly fun articles on bars and clubs -- including guides, the latest trends, rapid bar reviews and more. Grab a designated driver and dive in!
The votes are in and the winners have been selected for OnMilwaukee's Best: Bars & Clubs, 2010. Find readers' results in 50 categories, including an editors' pick, in this series of articles that run daily in the Bars and Clubs section of OnMilwaukee.com.
Regularly voted the restaurant with the best view by OnMilwaukee.com readers, Roots, 1818 N. Hubbard St., is perched at the top of the Brewers Hill bluff. With just the right vantage point, Roots rides enough height to show off a great panoramic view of the city skyline.
Sitting inside or on the patio, diners can see west to the Marquette campus, east to Lake Michigan and all of Downtown. Recognizing its prime location, Roots' design includes floor to ceiling windows and doors that swing open in summer to expose the interior dining room to the incredible view that sweeps out from the patio.
You'll be unsurprised, most likely, to know that OnMilwaukee.com editorial staff agrees and picked Roots as its choice in this category, too.
This, despite stiff competition from favorites like Blu, atop The Pfister Hotel, the river views of Milwaukee Ale House and Water Buffalo and other local gems.
