Puddlers Hall

As previously noted, Puddlers Hall is a homey, dive bar. Drinks are cheap and the appropriate strength. The bartenders were friendly and quick. Good bar pizzas can be ordered, perfectly crispy. Spacious back room for live music, ping pong and darts.

Cheap drinks and a great space to watch the Packers. A good place to meet up before you hit up Three Brothers just down the street, or any of the other nearby watering holes. 72/2023

How does it feel to walk into a building built in 1872, filled with the voices and lives of Puddlers and Boiler union members of the original Milwaukee Ironworks, and subsequent generations of tavern keepers and social groups and patrons?The dark wood holds their spirit. There is a close feeling of many kinds. Everyone is friendly. My family and I attended a Geeks and Trivia event. My Las Vegas family were in awe of the history and friendliness. It was a fun event...Libations are affordable and delicious. While fancy martinis are not on view, there's a respectably diverse selection of liquor in addition to beer. In honor to the hard working people whose work boots wore the floor smooth, try a "boilermaker" (beer and a shot). The neighborhood and the building are living history.Enjoy!

One of the best bars in Milwaukee with the coolest bartenders. This place oozes character. The Milwaukee Guitar Club meets here on the second and fourth Wednesday of the month starting a 7:00 pm to play songs together,

Man, if I lived in the Bay View I would go to Puddler's a lot more often. This joint is one fine establishment. Part dive-ish, part chill and a whole lotta fun all rolled up into a powerhouse of entertainment. Where else can you enjoy a Packers game like the way you can at Puddler's... Yes, I'm sure there are more than a few good spots to get your game on in Milwaukee but Puddler's is oh so spacious and cozy home like it hurts. Whether it be strolling through the neighborhood or coming to watch any Wisconsin specifically or any other team that happens to be on, this place serves it up correct. Good food, great drinks and multiple TV's from inside to out it's on at this joint. Ask for your Bloody Mary spicy and get with Bourbon or maybe kick back and play ping pong... Choice is yours. Puddler's Hall is as good as a day in Wisconsin as it could get!

This has become my go to bar for Packer games, and I'm not even that into football. I'm here for the environment and the amazing spread of food they put out for their customers. Lots of bars provide food or have potlucks during games but Puddlers takes it to the next level, cheeseburgers, brats, sausages I don't know the names of, wings, pizza, chips and salsa, baked beans, ice cream- it's all so good! Their bloody Mary's are also excellent coming with the cheese whips, sausage, pickle, pickled green bean, olive, something else and your choice of chaser, $5 so good! I can also recommend karaoke. I believe it has now moved to Sundays, 11am-3pm. They have other specials that you should check out during the week.

Best bar in Milwaukee! Love this place. Bar tenders and customers are awesome. Happy hour prices are great Great place to relax and have fun!

My husband and I go here all the time. One of my favorite local bars. Great prices, awesome bartenders, and ping pong. They also have a large projector and free food during Packers games! It does get busy, so get there early. It is one of the oldest bars in Milwaukee and they have history all on the walls. So come on by to do a small gallery walk. Additionally, they have music shows with some local bands that are fun to see!

For the past three years, I have seen Puddlers Hall while driving on 794 almost every single day. I'm not really sure why it took me so long to finally check this place out, but this week I finally did, and I have to say, it took me by surprise.I guess I was expecting Puddlers Hall to be like any other townie bar - no-frills, cheap drinks, cool staff. And in many ways, Puddlers Hall is exactly that. What I didn't expect was the fascinating history behind the building. It's on full display around the main bar - lots of historic photos of Puddlers through the years, documenting the tavern's history in the union landscape of old Milwaukee, right down to the name "puddlers" itself. It's worth a trip to Puddlers Hall if for no other reason than to check out this cool, lesser known bit of the city's history.When I visited, it was 3pm on a Wednesday - not exactly prime drinking time. We were the only ones at the bar, but the bartender was friendly and made us drinks that he promised would get us drunk. He wasn't wrong. And at $5 a drink, what's there to complain about?

Loved. Packers game food spreed was amazing and everyone is friendly. Perhaps my favorite hole in the wall.
