Boone and Crockett

I was recently gifted this really cool coupon book filled with deals for women-owned businesses in Milwaukee. Now, I've been a fan of Boone & Crockett for some time but I had zero clue it was a woman-owned business. So happy to discover that they're woman owned in addition to be amazing in all kinds of ways. As I've said before, their vibe it pitch perfect Wisconsin, their mixology is on point, and their Sunday happy hour is the stuff dreams are made of. I recently popped in on a Sunday for an after date cocktail. It happened to be at the end of a Packers game so was a little more bustling than your typical Sunday evening. That said, we were easily able to find seats and loved that they had live music going on. I ordered their negroni (*chef's kiss*) and enjoyed the candlelit atmosphere while sipping a delicious beverage. It's makes for a great date cocktail spot!Get to it!

If my childhood environment and hipsters had a baby and then decorated the nursery, this is what it would look like. This place is huge (so sometimes a wait) I really want to vibe here in the nice weather. The drinks are great, price is mid range, tons of seating. Bartenders were chill. Just go.

Solid place to get a cocktail or beer. The atmosphere is welcoming, yet cozy, with different areas in the same room having very different vibes.Want to be left in peace with your sweetie or group? Grab a booth.Want to interact with anyone, literally ANYONE who comes in? Sit at the bar.Want to be able to talk to your friends, but are open to making new ones? Grab a table in the middle of the room.Sometimes it's quiet in here, and sometimes, well, not so much.Hungry? No food here, but there is usually a food truck on the premises and you can bring your food inside and eat. They're welcoming that way.39/2024

When I have friends visiting, Boone & Crockett is usually on the list. It has a great ambiance inside and a beautiful view outside of the river when the weather is nicer. It's also where my partner & I had our second date (supposedly was supposed to be the first but I decided to schedule it on a Monday so he had to choose a different place). Just came again last week for a friend group bar crawl! DRINKS: At this point, between my friends and I, I've tasted/tried at least 75% of their house cocktail menu. I prefer mine stronger/spirit-forward and/or sour so my favorites are the old fashioned, bourbon & coffee (i'll order anything with caffeine), Trinidad sour. They have a HH EVERY DAY 4-7pm. Drinks are well priced! FOOD: They don't serve food but they partner with the Taco Moto truck outside which will bring your food to your table! VIBE: Greatttt date spot! Looks like a large hunters cabin inside with older chandeliers and dim lighting. Good amount of seating but they can get very busy. During the warmer months, they do have outdoor seating and occasional live music and it's right along the river. Location/Parking: Kind of an isolated area with a long stretch of road with easy street parking.

What a funky little place. This was recommended to us when my friends and I were planning a weekend trip to the area - and I'm so glad we went. It has the feel of a dive bar, but upscale cocktails! Drinks were good - not overpriced - and service was quick. We enjoyed just hanging out, people watching, and catching a pre-dinner drink. We didn't check out the food trucks out back - but love that that is an option!

The bartenders are fun and make the vibe. The ambiance gives bougie hipster. But the drinks meet the mark!!

Wow! I am a bartender and I don't even come close to this level of service! Henry is beyond amazing!!!

Arrogance comes in all shapes and sizes. My friend and I walked into Boone and Crockett on a late Saturday afternoon in November. We were older than anyone else by a few decades. In Milwaukee usually no one cares. Boone and Crockett was different. We sat at the bar, ready to enjoy a few cocktails. With an interesting location on the river, Boone and Crockett's geography provides immediate identity. The decor is midwestern generic but most would consider it nice. A bearded and burly bartender told us to look at the QR code for the cocktail list without eye contact and then completely ignored us. After ten minutes I was literally waving my arms like a signal officer on an aircraft carrier, and a female bar keep from the other end of the bar disengaged and walked over to take our order. She was nice enough but disappeared, leaving only the burly, surly, and bearded one. He continued to ignore us. The place was filling up with a crowd that looked like Marquette students. They were young and preppy. This ain't Bayview. After twenty minutes attempting to order a second drink, we gave up, but they had my credit card. We threw on our coats, and the burly, bearded one went to the register without looking at us, and tossed the bill and card on top of the bar and walked away. I signed, grabbed the card, and vacated Boone and Crockett, never to return. I left a tip because I'm a wimp. We drove to the Lost Whale on KK in Bayview and had a great time. Boone, Crockett, Burly and Surly are not for me.

I'm totally biased, because I frequent B&C often. My go-to is a sidecar, but their menu accommodates just about anyone, including having a wide variety of quality spirits. The bartenders are friendly and it's the perfect place to grab drinks, especially during the summer (their patio is the perfect vibe)! Added bonus: TACO MOTO!

Great bar. We went here randomly for a drink in the afternoon before an early dinner and ended up getting some live DJ music we didn't plan on! The taco truck was delicious for some queso and guacamole before dinner. The inside has rustic old school vibes while the outdoors feels more... parking lot tiki bar chic? Lots of picnic tables and some covered seating. This is also randomly the launch spot for kayaking.
