Steak taco and amber lager is fuego. Hot dog hits for a cheap bite $ It’s mostly sports enthusiastic people and chill locals. I even study here. Check it out.

This is a hidden gem in a very expensive neighborhood. Nice low key bar where you will get your money's worth. The staff was very friendly. It is a block away from Cherry Creek mall, I came here while my wife was shopping. Definitely recommend this place.

Food was okay, got a burger and tator tots. Waitstaff was attentive. Atmosphere was not what I needed at the time, it was noisy, dark, and loud. I should have known better but I couldn't tell from the street how loud it was inside. I was on a work trip and pressed for time, with a group and no timeline I probably would have liked it better.

I was shocked at how much I loved Milwaukee St Tavern. First, I only went because I didn’t want to go hang out at West Elm while my better half shopped and I assumed it was a Wisconsin bar since it was named Milwaukee St Tavern (I’m bad at knowing street names) It wasn’t a Wisconsin bar, but it was a great place. Bartenders were super nice. Wish they would’ve had Fat Tire on tap or a malty beer like an Oktoberfest, but they still had bottles of beer I enjoyed. Burger was great, steak was good. And it was very well priced for being in Cherry Creek. Finally, getting to the restroom was a bit of a maze, but they were well lit, had outdated posters and good mirrors for a selfie. So, it felt like a dive bar restroom, which is the best kind of restroom to snap a mirror selfie in and let people know you’re out on the town for the night.
