McGinn's Sports Bar

A month ago I came here for a fish fry with a good friend of mine and her husband. She has told me a couple times how good the fish is and figure it was about time to give McGinn's a try especially given how close the place is to me. We all went with cod dinners but I went with the 2 piece breaded and they went with 3 pieces. It comes with your choice of potato, slaw, rye roll and a little fruit on the side.Being not a fan of tarter sauce (yeah I know), I am so glad that the breading was seasoned. It was delicious and flaky, which is what anyone would want from a cod dinner. They give you quite a bit of fries and was able to eat half of them and half the roll because I'm not a big fan of caraway seeds. The pineapple and orange slice was a nice touch and refreshing. I would for sure come back for another fish fry but would request less fries and try something else off of the menu as well.

THE best place for a delicious meal and complimentary lift to a Brewers game!Get there early if you want to grab a table on game days. We arrived two hours prior and had our choice of many outside tables.The menu is quite vast and features a lot of Reuben dishes, including a Reuben roll similar to a egg roll.I personally had a Reuben salad which included fresh greens, coleslaw, Swiss cheese, lots of corned beef, and pumpernickel croutons. A side of thousand Island dressing was the perfect dressing. I totally recommend the Reuben salad for a filling and delicious lunch.Spend $10 per person and grab a ticket to their free shuttle to the game. So convenient!

10/10! We live in the neighborhood. We travel a lot and visit absolute excellent restaurants regularly. McGinn's is clean, fresh and delicious. Excellent service. The bar food is consistently good - you can just tell when the kitchen is clean through the food you receive. Mozz sticks and Reuben rolls are perfect. We go here at least once a week.

Reasonably priced drinks. Food was better than expected - we had the Ruben egg rolls and the ground beef nachos. Staff was nice and accommodated a large group for a football watch party. Lots of. TVs

Great sports bar with awesome food especially Friday fish fry,love this place. The atmosphere, food and most of the drinks were great. The bartenders knew their mixology and it showed in the drinks. Great place to hangout, chill or go out on a date.

The spicy garlic wings (grilled) are in contention for some of the best tasting wings I've ever had - perfectly cooked too. Would come back just for those. The Brachos were definitely memorable and pretty good.Atmosphere is friendly and service was very attentive even during a busy night. All round great vibes. + Easy parking on-site.

I was going to give 4 stars but after reflecting on last weekends wings visit from voted Milwaukee's #1 wings and not being impressed at all to the contrast of today's wings visit I'm going to give 5 stars.When I stumbled on this place I saw that Aubrey G. owns this place with check ins/picture wise so I reached out to him for a meet because it would be rude not to if I enter his home.The place has plenty off street parking with a lot. The place is relatively nice for a neighborhood bar/restaurant with a wood back bar, plenty of big screens, wall of big windows, free popcorn, ATM, hi tables/chairs and a couple intimate dining rooms. They have daily specials food/drink wise and bunch of taps with a great group of regulars.The wings are priced each so you can customize your order to your appetite which is very cool. I ordered 6 of the grilled, dry rubbed Caribbean jerk as my first sampling with celery and blue cheese sauce. The plate looked and smelled amazing with nice char grill marks. The wings were very tasty, meaty, moist, hot with a little crunch from the grilling, dam these are pretty dam good. Now for the sign of a place that takes great pride in their wings, the house made blue cheese sauce had nice chunks of blue cheese, no commercial salad dressing like the voted #1 served me. The celery was my idea of perfect, fresh, cold and crunchy and not room temp like the last wing place. The celery and blue cheese sauce demonstrates that they take great pride in the food that they serve. It was nice to finally meet Aubrey because I wanted to go to a different wing place that he owns picture wise but he suggested we go to McGinns instead and what a great call.My final thoughts is yes it's a bar but they are not serving bar food all, this kitchen after looking at the plates passing by me and having the wings is focused on sending out quality food. I look forward to trying more of the menu with Aubrey In the future. My favorite wing place was just knocked off today.WTF WTF WTF ///////////////////////////////How is McGinns not on any Milwaukee wings list when I do a web search because they blew away the voted #1 on those lists, compar my reviews for both and look at my pictures, it's not even close. If you like wings you have to try this place people because this just might be Milwaukee's best kept wings secret place.

As always, great food, baseball atmosphere, and plenty of cold beer and refreshments. Keep up the good work!

Coming in from Chicago on our way to the Milwaukee summer fest but first, FOOD!Okay so here it Goes...Our waitress: Amy, super sweet!Our food:delicious!!Prices: very reasonable...we ordered a grilled chicken sandwich-dipped in house bbq sauce, sooo good with house chips.Also, a juicy cheeseburger- BLT w/fries was the bomb and of course a drink (Truly) to wash that down with ; ) Our total was $25.44! Oh yeah we'll definitely be back!

After a long work day hubby and I headed to McGinns for dinner and a Packer Game. They have nice big tvs for watching the game and good beer specials, but I get ahead of myself. Hubby had the meatloaf dinner with mashed potatoes and gravy and I had the burger with the works (cheese , bacon, fried onions, mushrooms, and green peppers). Yum! Kickoff is in 14 minutes so I had better finish dinner. Go Pack!Update- we stopped in tonight (April 2016) to try their fish fry. I got the walleye with potato pancakes with applesauce! So good! The fish was not "fishy" and the pancakes were crispy like a hashbrown. Hubby had the cod, 3 piece, dinner with homemade potato chips. He loved it as well. The place is pretty packed, and everyone is enjoying themselves. Update- December, 2017. Hubby and I continue to come here. It is a great bar and restaurant. I continue to be obsessed with the fresh popcorn and please check out their Saturday steak special. $15 New York strip with all the fixings. I order my steaks medium rare (hubby prefers medium). We are regulars on Saturday evenings and I have only found my steak cooked too long once in what??? 50?They always have 2 home made soups and daily specials available. And their bartenders and waitresses are attentive and fun to talk to!
