Indulge - Event Venue

How did we not know this was a quick walk from the Third Ward? I was craving wine after a long day and I​ put wine bar into Yelp and Indulge popped up!Indulge is located on Milwaukee Street​ if I were the owners I would consider into putting up different signage or a new storefront because it is easy to miss and that is a shame.I will be honest, I love wine but I am not that educated about different regions or grapes. Our server was very knowledgeable​, telling us about the areas and what that brought to each wine we tried in our flight. The flights were 15.00; I am not sure if that is every Thursday evening or just last night, but it was a great way to sample their wines.The cheese board list was very extensive and again our server was very knowledgeable​ about explaining and describing the cheese. We chose​ the Alpine, and Asiago, and Parmesan. All of the cheeses were delicious and perfect compliments to our wine selection. We also tried the olive medley and meat board......perfection. They did have chocolates for dessert but we were stuffed.The only thing that keeps this from being a 5 is it took a long time to get our wine and cheese. We were the only patrons (which is a shame because the place really is special). Our server was training another server and I think that is what was taking so long. It was a delightful way to spend an evening but that is the only thing I would say needs improvement.Again with all of the people who are living downtown or visiting the downtown area, it would be beneficial to change up the storefront so people know it is there. We will definitely be stopping in more!

Great place to be! Very cozy with a great selection of wines to be paired with chocolates or cheese. Nice ambience and great recommendations from the host. We went there after dinner to enjoy some dessert and light wine; glad we choose this place :)

After leaving Merriment Social we wanted to have some wine and enjoy more conversation with our friends. We decided to make our way to Indulge.This place is tucked in amongst a backdrop of buildings and other restaurants right smack downtown Milwaukee. Indulge is really cool inside. Big mirrors and cream city brick and high tables with some of the heaviest solid steel chairs. They specialize in desserts as well as meat and cheese. They slice it up to order and have more than a few to choose from. We tried a little of everything. What we chose was scrumptious! What we munched on helped me slip further into food coma! Indulge is simply charming and the service was solid. Great nightcap spot and we enjoyed it immensely!

Wonderful charcuterie and delicious wine. Environment is great. Staff is extremely friendly and informative. Worth the visit. Raspberry s'mores was yum!

I really love this place. We were looking for a place to get some small bites because dinner was hours away and this fit the bill. We got a couple of Carr Valley cheeses and they were all amazing. We also couldn't resist trying a couple of their chocolates: limoncello espresso and bananas foster. I thought both were delicious, especially the latter. I wish they weren't so small because they're gone in seconds!The decor is one of my favorites in the city. The chairs are comfortable even though they're high because the table has a bar exactly at foot level. The chairs also have these hooks on the back to help you pull them out and also hang your purse! I'd like to come back and try some of their macaroons. We were really tempted to get some then but didn't want to spoil our dinner.

OMG. Go here. My brain hurts as I search for creative ways to explain to you how great this place is. Went here with the wife for 4:30pm wine, cheese, and chocolate. Christ. Amazing. Wine flight called "bold & beautiful" was great. 6yr cheddar and blue cheese is great. Cardamom cayenne and salted Carmel chocolate. Bam! Wow. Pros - everything. Great place. Cons - none.

I'm between 3 and 4 stars on Indulge. It's a place that I've only been to twice, I honestly forget about it. My last visit wasn't too memorable, either. There was only one other table present and between the time they left and near closing time it was just me and my guest. It was a Wednesday, I guess, but still. It's a nice little bar. Good for meeting a friend or blind date low-key.We didn't have any snacks so I can't comment on that. But I felt the wine pours were really short. I mean at $10 to $14 per glass, I want a good amount that I won't be done with in 10 minutes. But, places in Milwaukee overall are abusing this, I feel. I can go over to wine thief or any other place that sells liquor and get a really, really nice entire bottle of wine for $10-$15. This makes me miss the BYOBs when I lived in Chicago. Really awesome concept. Affordable AND a restaurant has to stand on it's own just on the food.I miss it. But, I get this is a wine bar. Was just underwhelmed with it.

It would be a 4 if this place would just realize it's potential. The good: wine selection is awesome, prices are reasonable (I can attest to this as I know what they pay as well as what they charge), the chocolates (from Gail Ambrosious and Indulgence) amd charcuterie and cheeses are awesome, and I love the decor and feel if the interior. Server knowledge is generally strong and friendly. Music is usually pretty solid too. The bad: cupcake quality is inconsistent (usually good, sometimes dry), business comes in waves (being at the front or tail end is good, but walking in during the middle can leave you waiting), chocolates tend to run low in availability by Saturday as they usually arrive early in the weekThe ugly: not enough of a bar atmosphere (due to not really being a bar) to keep people drinking long when you have a group that doesn't have enough wine drinkers, a location that screams for better business but doesn't do anyrhing to advertise, and the sheer annoyance of having to pay to park. $6 to go have wine and cheese isn't right. If it was something closer to a bar, with a little less emphasis on wine and maybe sacrificing a few chocolates and charcuterie to add legitimate desserts, this would be more of a draw to Milwaukeeans who don't necessarily appreciate the concept of what Indulge is trying to be.

We hosted our 6/7/24 wedding rehearsal dinner at Indulge. This is a hidden gem! The space was perfect for our 25 person sit-down dinner and cocktails. Marta was great to work with and very responsive in the planning phase. The staff provided very attentive service and the food was delicious. This is a perfect spot to host a private event. The space allows for a more intimate setting where guests and meet and mingle. We strongly recommend Indulge Event Venue for your next gathering!

Never been here.The appetizers were amazing. Crab croquettes, ahi Tuna tartare on crispy rice, cornbread, and the chowder.....top shelf. Truly delicious. Lobster mac and cheese....amazing.Didnt even make it to a ma9n course we were so full.
