Turner Hall Ballroom

Arguably the venue I went to (hosted here) went well, but patrons shouldn't have to view banners of nation-destroying, far-left ideologies as they enter the hall.There were also a lot of ticket fees tacked on to the event. A 25 dollar ticket turned into 40 dollars at checkout. I would assume these are fees being pushed onto the customer by the ballroom to cover bar expenses? I will note that the bars were well-tended and drinks were quality.The negatives combined with the extremely dangerous traffic around the area ensure that I probably won't ever attend an event here again. I'll take my money elsewhere so I don't support communism or die in a car accident leaving the area.

Great venue!! I was a little worried about queueing in the cold before the doors opened, but the staff are clearly very seasoned and had a plan to have us wait in line inside downstairs. The ballroom itself is on the second floor. I could feel the whole floor shaking when the crowd was really into the act and jumping around, which I just loved. There was a cash coatcheck (needed), and the bar was able to run cards for those w/o foresight. I'd love to see a show here again!!

A great place to go for a concert or comedy event! It's a great place to have an open dance floor as well! The building is older but they have kept its beauty by not making it modern

I got the reserved booth and was told they were first come first serve and to get there early to get one. when we got there The restaurant downstairs didn't have but only one chef so they were only serving appetizers seated at bar. when we got into the venue, I was told at the ticket office that booths weren't reserved, come to find out, They are reserved with your name on it. This whole place is half ass run. Nobody knows what's going on. Nobody has the right answer for anything. The bartender on the balcony scammed an extra $10 on my card when i got waters. It showed $10 but i was actually charged $20!!!!!!the Soundsystem is awful. I would really avoid this place. It really sucks

This place is a treasure. Saw Better Than Ezra there on November 17th. The acoustics were terrific. The bartenders were fast. The bathrooms were clean. I will make Turner Hall a regular stop going forward.

Nice place. "Old"/ charming. Great space. Good acoustics!! Fair pricing. Not a lot of seating. Get there early if you need a table. Drinks are strong.

This is such a classic Milwaukee building that I couldn't believe I had never been there for a show. Turner Hall screams old German beer town. The open ballroom space is impressive in its shabby chicness.For the comedy show I attended, there were small first come first served tables set up, with a few VIP tables nearest the stage. There wasn't a bad seat in the house.Bar service was friendly and fast and drinks were as reasonable as anywhere else.I hope to see more shows here.

I've been to several shows at Turner Hall and have never been disappointed! Crowd has always been friendly and there's usually enough personal space for a little dancing. Bathrooms are always clean and I haven't run into a line, and the bar has a decent selection at pretty good prices for a concert venue. The ballroom is standing room only and features a balcony area on the second floor with great views, though I prefer to be on the main floor. At the shows I've been to the venue always ends up pretty full, so depending on the artist get there close to when doors open if you want to be close to the stage!

Service | games | pre-game Service: definitely ranks in terms of the bottom 10 restaurants of my life with regards to sit down meal service. Monica and I made a day trip to Milwaukee to watch a Bucks game on New Year's Day. We were walking around and wanted to grab a drink, some food and watch the first half of the rose bowl game before heading over to the arena. We sat for 24 minutes, talked To the hostess 3 times before our waiter took our order. We were Not the only ones in this spot... we were sounded by 6 other tables and 5 had similar experiences, since we all were sat within 5 minutes of each other. One table with six people (looked to be grandfather, father, and son group) did not receive drinks until After we were already half way through our meal (about 50 minutes). - the restaurant wasn't overwhelmed, it appeared their staff lacked a handoff system or had successfully identified who had what tables. GAMES: They have a lot of games. Two pool tables and two shuffle board tables, so it's the perfect spot to kill time and enjoy a game. Pre-game: along with the games they have a lot of TVs with all the sports packages. It is about a 3 minute walk from the Bucks Arena, so it's the perfect spot to start your night before watching the Greek freak. Pro tip: - Park in the designated parking area by the hospital. Parking is cheap and it is easy to get in and out of. - street parking is a bit sketchy, so if you care about your vehicle, the. Go either the covered parking by the arena.

Great open ballroom concert venue. I've come here many times for shows and love how close I can get standing near the stage, the clean bathrooms, and good beer selection at a relatively good value for a concert venue! I've never had a problem parking nearby (found $5 parking just 3 blocks away on a night that Metallica was playing across the street.) As I get older and the some of the bands that I follow (and their followers) get older, I've noticed general admission plastic chair seating being set up. But that's not really what this venue is about, so I prefer to stand close to the stage, and unlike the Aragon Ballroom in Chicago, I never have a hard time leaving my spot and coming right back. Turner crowds are so polite and nice!Turner Hall, love it!
