DO NOT COME HERE WITHOUT AN APPETITE. The food tastes like the perfect home cooked meal from a memory. Beer is cold!

Awesome atmosphere and food was beyond expectations. Ty took great care of us and I recommend coming here, only place I find that serves food past 11 as well!

Been meaning to leave a review of this true gem, my girlfriend and I are newer to Colorado and we both love this place. It’s a tavern so you would assume it’s mediocre bar food. False. Their food is amazing. We happened to stumble in on a Sunday, we had Chris as a server and honestly, one of the nicest, most welcoming and friendly guy we have had the pleasure to be waited on by. Went back the following Sunday and luckily Chris was there and somehow made it even better than the first time. It was slow upon arrival but after a couple hours of hanging out enjoying our Sunday, it definitely got busier, I think it was just him and a bartender cause guy was hustling and crushing it. Still checked in with us, still on top of it. We felt a little bad for him at first but he seemed to be in the zone taking tables all over the place including outside. Multiple tvs to watch all sports one would desire, great brunch on sundays, a true home good feeling. He even advised us of a rewards program they offer. He already knew we would not decline and had a little sheet to fill out with a card. Highly recommend this place, the staff, and overall vibe are the best we’ve experienced this far in beautiful Colorado. We found our new favorite place in Denver. Ask for Chris, you will not be disappointed. Thank you Chris and Milwaukee St Tavern for making us feel so welcomed and like family. Will be back over and over again. -Mike

Really good food and excellent service. 10/10 recommend, Ty was helpful, nice and knowledgeable!

Always great food, always great service. My favorite is Green Chili but you can not go wrong with any other menu item. Great variety and always fresh. Cocktails are great! Beer always cold.

It's funny how bad reviews pop up on bar and restaurant pages whenever there are major events in town. It's almost as if having an excess amount of people go into an establishment, on the weekend, while a public event is being held, and while there is a labor shortage within the service industry, could potentially land you with longer than usual wait times. It's 2021, pucker up buttercup, you should be thankful you're getting service at all in the first place.That being said, I'm a local and this bar is wonderful. The people who work their will make sure you're taken care of. It's a local, family owned and operated business, with great food, delicious drinks, friendly service and prices that beat out every one of their neighbors in the area.

This is a mixed review. Food was very good. Service was busy and we had to wait 20 mins just to pay our check. Our server was not good so we addressed that with our tip. But the biggest red flag: THE SERVER CHANGED THE TIP ON OUR RECEIPT! Last I checked, this is fraud. If she didn’t like her tip, she should improve her service. I get it’s a labor shortage and there was a special event downtown, but changing someone’s receipt is illegal.

My family and I planned a fun holiday weekend in Denver Colorado this past weekend. We had taken our sons to see the beautiful lights in Downtown Denver. As we were walking by Milwaukee Tavern we noticed they had 2 bowling Alley Lanes for kids. We were so excited and quickly made our way to the entrance. ( bowling is one of our sons favorite things to do. Our 3 year old is Austistic and he was so happy when he saw we were taking him to bowl.) We were having a great family time with our boys but the balls kept getting stuck amd it was taking forever for us to get any help resetting the game. So my husband decided to fix the the situation himself so our son could continue to have a good time. Thats when the manager screamed at my husband to get off the lanes. It was the rudest most embarrassing moment we have ever had happen to us. The whole restaurant stopped what they were doing and looked at us thanks to the rudest barManager Erica having no people skills whatsoever! I honestly dont understand how such a rude person could have the job position that she does. afterwards a couple other waitresses apologized for her behavior. BUt it didnt help the situation that we were in. We still had a messed up game of bowling that we waited over 15 minutes for someone to come help us when we finally decided to just leave. We werent going to waiste anymore of our time there. Obviously we werent worth helping. But we were worth the time it took for Erica to scream at us across the restaurant. We will never recommemd this place to any family who wants to have a good time and we will never step foot back in this horrible Milwaukee Tavern again!

Caleb was amazing! Freaking awesome beef tacos and old fashioned!

Good service and a variety of food. Stop in and check it out.
