The Jazz Estate

I stopped in for a quick drink with a friend. We went on a night when they did not have music, but the atmosphere was lovely. It definitely is the perfect cozy spot for a creative cocktail. The service was great and the bartenders are friendly. I can't wait to return when they have live music!

Somehow, in all the years I lived in Milwaukee, I never made it to the Jazz Estate. Happily now that I'm older and have more sense that has been rectified.This is a warm, charming little club. It's dim and perfect for date nights. Seating is limited, so it's not a mad house. The drinks are excellent and well-crafted. The bourbon, rye, rum and other alcohol lists are impressive, especially the bourbon selection.I highly recommend the Jazz Estate for a great, intimate live music experience.

Ambiance is unlike any other date night place in mke. It's also a comfortable place to go alone and enjoy some live music or enjoy one of their great cocktails they offer. Service from the bartenders is always great and the space is a must to check out!

I freakin' loooooove this place--the vibe, the ambience, the dim lighting, the cocktails, the friendly staff, and those tunes...what more could I ask for? It's an intimate venue that delivers a solid jazz feel. With that said, it's easy to fill a room here. I dig the live music and even the nights where they have a dj spinning records--both kind of make you feel like you're 'somewhere' else ;)Perfect spot for a main night or a night cap. If you haven't been, I highly suggest you check it out!

I felt like I had stepped back in time when we walked into the Jazz Estate and it was awesome! Located in a small house that has been renovated into the Jazz Estate, this dimly lit oasis is the perfect place to here some incredible music!Yes there was a cover charge, it was 5.00 and they added it to our bill because we never have cash....easy peasy. Let's get to important part of my evening- The Drinks- I have fallen in love with this drink and while the flavors do not sound good when you read them they magically mix together to form the taste of liquid bacon....yes I said liquid bacon and it is crazy delicious! The drink is called HEART LEAFDEL MAGUEY VIDA MEZCAL, GIFFARD BANANA LIQUEUR, NUX ALPINA WALNUT LIQUEUR, PINEAPPLE, LIME JUICE. SERVED UP.Bestill my heart, I am pretty sure I will never drink something else so wonderful....I will go back just for this drink! And the drinks are strong- we Uber but aware they can sneak up on you!Now onto the Jazz...how do I say this? These bands know what they are doing, and transport you for the evening where all is good and you can hear all of their thoughts and dreams poured into their arrangements. This club gets some serious talent which will make it one of our monthly haunts. Great service who makes sure you have a drink when you need it but not so clingy that the music is interrupted. They do have an early session and a late session, we always hit the early because the place fills up quickly.

Tl:dr If you want jazz and good cocktails - it's a no brainerI actually happened in here by accident / as I wanted to show up at Huan Xi to try hot pot for the first time (spoiler: I burnt myself) but it was Friday night and they were busy as hell. So, we put our name in to wait and went out in search for a bar. The Jazz Estate! Right across the street and still earlier enough there was no cover at that time (a jazz band was on at 9 / cover required then, but it's minimal) We sampled some of their beers on tap as well as their two Old Fashions - I was a sucker for the OF made with Hawthorne coffee. The bartenders were great and even mixed some drinks off their own knowledge/expertise. Fun bar folk (some natives and some hilarious nearby business owners) we had a great time chatting and drinking. Left, went for hot pot across the street (burned myself) and then came back for the Jazz later that night. There was a lot more energy by that point (as I said the cover wasn't bad) and the jazz music (which isn't always my style) was a delightful twist from my norm.Next time I'm in the neighborhood, I would definitely stop back.

An amazing gem in Milwaukee that brings diverse individuals together in an eclectic atmosphere open to all. With weekly shows, the jazz estate is the place to go on your own, with friends or on a date. The yummy cocktails and amazing mixology team has something to make your tastebuds dance while you listen to the music to the performers on stage. Sexy, speakeasy vibes, a place everyone should try at least once.

Mostly love this place for what it does best -- jazz. I have many memorable nights here. One thing I don't remember, however, is decent bar service. Many nights there is one bartender and, with the complicated drinks they mix, you can wait 15+ minutes for a drink. When this happens, I generally just sit down at a table to enjoy the music. Tonight I tried for a drink twice. Nada.

Had a great night out with a friend of mine. Excellent atmosphere and drinks. Plan to buy tickets or come early.

By far the absolute WORST band I have ever seen. Ever. They played 2 songs in 45 minutes and the "Lead Singer" did nothing but talk, giving "tools for relationships". The attempt at being a band was juvenile at best. If they would have just let the band play and fired the "lead singer" it would have been great, This was an absolute joke. No wonder they can't make a go of this place. Talent? Non-existent. $200 dollars later and I left and I'm listening to "Jazz" online. What a waste of a night.(I only left a 1 star review because I'm unable to leave a review with NO stars.)
