The votes are in and the winners have been selected for OnMilwaukee's Best: Eat & Drink, 2007. The results of this readers' poll, including an editors' pick, are available in this series of articles that run all month long in the Bars and Clubs section of OnMilwaukee.com.

It’s no surprise that OnMilwaukee.com readers picked Café Hollander as Milwaukee’s best new bar. Café Hollander moved into the space formerly occupied by Gil’s Café in early 2007 and easily filled Gil’s  shoes.

Café Hollander features a split smoking and nonsmoking dining section, and a comfortable, attractive bar with a good selection of Belgian ales offered in brand-appropriate glasses. Brunch-time customers covet their Bloody Marys as well.

Durng the warm weather months, outdoor drinking is the way to go at Hollander thanks to the the corner patio that's the ideal spot to see and be seen.

Created by the Diablos Rojos restaurant group, Hollander’s food, drink and service are above average for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Popular menu items include the eggs Benedict, the blackberry turkey sandwich, Trader Tater Noshers (a nod to the iconic Coffee Trader that originally offered this appetizer / meal), filet mignon and more.

Whether you want to take the kids out for brunch, catch a quick bite before a show or drink the night away, Café Hollander can accommodate the situation, which is one of the reasons why folks love this place so much.
