Stir

We visited on a Tuesday evening. The bar was full, but we were greeted with a friendly smile and served quickly. There was no menu that I saw, but we ordered 2 old fashioned with bourbon, sweet. The inside looks recently renovated - industrial/metal concrete vibes?, There's pool table, a few TV screens, and high top tables with heavy, counter height bar stools tucked along the windows. It was dark when we visited, but I'd imagine there's a great view of the river during the day. Everything was clean, and I appreciated that the tables/floors weren't sticky or gross. The drinks were just right. We were on a tight schedule to get to another reservation, or I would have liked to hang out a little longer - the bartender was quick to close out or tab. Overall, cool vibe, good drink, fair price. The only downside was parking, but that's a given for anywhere downtown.

The bartenders are sooo friendly, and it's a quaint atmosphere. If you're looking for the hype, this isn't the place for you. Best for a lowkey type of night. Really accessible location. Right by the river too so it's got a great view. Would recommend if you're looking for something slow.

Bar is quiet except the bartender is hilarious, drinks are well madeWas looking for a place that was chill but fun; found it!

Great chill place! Old fashioneds are EXCELLENT - told the bartender how much I love the luxardo cherries and he comes over with a small container for us to take home.

Fun bartender, great mixed drinks. Ambiance is a little lacking but it also made it work for us also. Next time we're in Milwaukee we'll be stopping back.

Boyfriend and I stumbled upon this place decided to check it out. Cool location on water. Attached to a cigar shop. Has a pool table inside. Nick the bartender was very welcoming and super cool to talk with. We'll definitely be back !

Had always been a little skeptical of this place. Never really looks like there are many people in there. Deciding to head there out of convenience this weekend, we had a great time. The bartender was extremely knowledgeable on bourbons and was very friendly and helpful. Cool artwork and an intent of putting design into a small location

Great people. Great drinks! Owner was funny and attentive. The people that commented about the owner just don't understand sarcasm or dry humor.

Drinks are great. Also - they choose the best hand soap scents of any bar I've been to.

The venue itself is very nice, however, the bartender was a complete a$$hole. I tried to order a liqueur/brandy and maybe he didn't know what it was or didn't have it, but he said 'you must be a FIB'. I was stunned to say the least, and just said 'I changed my mind' and went to sit by my friends. (FIB, for those that don't knowmeans Fu**ing Illinois Bastard)
