Bryant's Cocktail Lounge

Cocktail expert David Wondrich is a fan of this Milwaukee bar , which is the city ’s (and possibly the state’s ) oldest—established in 1938. Wondrich says it was “cool before there were hipsters .”

All kinds of cocktails . I especially loved one called the Herb that had mint , cucumber , gin , and tonic. And you can't go wrong with their chocolate ice cream cocktail !

Coming here is like stepping back into 1940 & I loved it! They have no menu but will make you whatever you want! There's a bar & only about 5 booths . It's cozy , retro & they play oldies :)

these folks are masters of the cocktail , and pairing them to your tastes. they really know what they're doing ????

Probably the best mood lighting cocktail lounge in town . Extensive knowledge in mixology , so be sure to have some fun and tell your bartender/waitress what you like and see what they come up with.

My FAVORITE place for drinks in Milwaukee! I went once with the recipe for a smoothie and asked them to turn it into a cocktail .....look for it in their little black recipe book ! Tiger Blood!

One of my absolute favorite bars . Awesome drinks and equally awesome staff . Gotta try their Mai Tai , but be careful - it's rather strong! :)

Their claim to fame is that they don't have a cocktail menu ; instead the knowledgable bartenders ask customers what they normally like and are in the mood for, and make cocktails to suit.

Bryant’s holds Cocktail Hour on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 5-9 p.m. All ‘Depression Era Cocktails ’ are half-priced, including the Old Fashioned , Cassis, Whiskey River and many more.

THE place to go for an awesome cocktail . Pricey , but worth it. No drink lists, as the bartenders have all that memorized. Just tell them what you like, and they'll create something delicious for you!

Great cocktail lounge . Amazing drinks. No menu - tell bartender flavor/style/spirit and be wowed or try Brain Buster . Great music , cool vibe. Fantastic bar staff/owner. Park on Lapham for car safety.

No cocktail menu , but don't worry. Tell your bartender your tastes and he'll take good care of you. Also- If you've never tried one, you've simply got to get an ice cream drink. Yum!

Trouble finding parking ? There is a HUGE public parking lot with over 250 parking spaces just 1/2 block south of Bryant's on 9th Street.

Great place trust your bartender they won't steer you wrong! Great place to take your lady friend to. Lots of fruity drinks !

Congratulations, you've found one of Esquire's Best Bars in America. This bar is dark, but after trying their St. Paddy's Day punch or Old Fashioned you'll leave lit up. Read more
