Reviews of Punch Bowl Social Milwaukee
Christopher Paquette
I just arrived in Milwaukee for the first time and needed a place to eat. Stumbled on this place and the atmosphere seemed fun. There was a Bucks home game so the place was lively. Staff was friendly and the drinks were very good. Only big dissapointment was the food. I ordered the Bison Burger Patty Melt thinking it would be amazing. What arrived at my table was a very dry patty melt with barely any cheese and definately no melt. Burger was definately from a frozen patty and was dry. Fries were just ordinary, not bad not great.
Shyam Patel
We booked for private event at 1st floor around 40 people and had a great time. The drink selection was great

So, I had these grand plans to throw myself a birthday party, but time got away from me, and it was over Thanksgiving weekend, so I gave up planning all together.
My friend and I decided to stop here for dinner and a drink to celebrate, she has gluten sensitivity and they have a ton of GF options.
Our server was great. He was amicable and checked in just the right amount. We ordered chips and guac and queso. I actually don't remember what I got for my main dish, but I remember after dinner, I was very much looking forward to a piece of dessert to celebrate.
Our server told me that they had just gotten a new head chef and didn't actually have desserts on the menu yet, but he'd see what he could do.
Somehow he scrounged up a lemon bar AND a candle, and it seriously made my night! I will definitely stop back and hopefully even play some games next time!
The only thing that was a little weird was how dead it was inside. There was a Marquette game at the Fiserv that night, so I am guessing they cleared out once the game started. Other than that, we had a great time!
Gether Mercer
Awesome happy hour drinks in an excellent location. The staff was friendly and professional! There's a bowling alley which was fun and other games, as well. If you're looking for a fun time visit the Punch Bowl. We ordered the humus with veggies, wings, sheet load of nachos with chicken, zucchini and all the other regular toppings, rosemary fries, and mac and cheese. Everything and I mean everything was to our satisfaction and very pleasing to my palate. Oh and the key lime pie was so delicious. If you're looking for great food and entertainment you must experience this place. So proud of the deer district! UPDATE: just visited and the CHICKEN AND WAFFLES are a MUST ORDER!!! SO FLAVORFUL, JUICY AND THE, WAFFLES JUST DELICIOUS. It's fried a bit dark BUT don't let that scare you. EVERYTHING we ordered in this picture was tasty.
Monique Carrington
Oh my gosh, Ty was absolutely thee best! My family, and I had stopped by after a show at St. Kate’s. We couldn’t quite find a drink on the menu that we wanted to drink… so, after her asking questions about the things we liked, she created us a CUSTOM Punch Bowl! Omgness, it was a delicious. It was created out of our liquor of choice for the night (Jameson).
The food was delicious, and the girls enjoyed playing games. I don’t see why we shouldn’t do this again. Thank you Ty, abs Punch Bowl for your hospitality.
Imaria Noel
i wasn’t to sure about stopping in based off some of the other reviews I’ve seen .. nevertheless ty really made the experience worthwhile! she made me a really good margarita & was really knowledgeable on the different types of tequilas & their price points! she was also so kind and understanding when i wasn’t sure what i wanted at first. for sure gonna stop in again if this is the kind of service i get!!
Courtney Lynn
Ty and Cass are awesome bartenders! They have been excellent every time I have come here. Make sure to visit Punchbowl Social when visiting MKE!
Corinne
My friends and I went to the Punchbowl Social before an event at the Fiserv Forum. I really wanted to like the place because the atmosphere is actually really nice. But 2 of the 3 things I wanted to order weren't available, and the service was lack luster. In fact, our server seemed annoyed by any request made, maybe they were having an off day. The hosts however were very nice. Overall, I'd recommend it for drinks before heading to Fiserv because of its convenience, but if your looking for amazing service and food maybe look somewhere else.
Seth Obregon
This place is dope! Bowling alley, arcade and pool tables--come with friends. Right in front of the Fiserv Forum. LIVE music (90's throwback) on Wednesday was great. Gillian introduced me to their food menu. 😋 New favorite spot!💯👍 …
Matt
The staff are very friendly and attentive. Atmosphere is great with opportunities to play darts, arcade, pool, foosball, ping pong, bowl, karaoke or just relax and have a drink. If your looking to come here for dining; the food is below average. Location is perfect; only a couple steps from Fiserv Forum.
Ariel Vokracka
This was my first time visiting Punch Bowl Social & I had a blast! The host, I believe her name was Gillian? She was very helpful in explaining all of the options Punch Bowl had to offer. She was very thorough and was able to answer all of our questions. Will definitely come back!!
Janae Brown
I had a lovely experience on a Friday night with the help from Ty. she hooked me up with a good classic margarita & it was phenomenal. She provided great service and a nice conversation. I will be stopping in more often now.
Tom Juice3
I ain’t go lie shorty wit the bun i think her name was Ty? She made best margarita got me together for sure 🫱🏼🫲🏾 …
Emma Calkins
Super friendly and accommodating wait-staff! Gillian got us a table ASAP before the game and we had such a great time! Good food and drinks!
Rebecca Kiefer
Great location in the Deer District. Everything to keep you busy - from bowling to darts to foosball to board games to pinball. Good food and drink, something for everyone.
Kaloyan Kanchev
Conveniently located across from Fiserv Forum, a good option for a quick bite before your event. Menu is simple but food was good and comes out fast.
Emily Anderson
So this is a cool place to hang out..theres nice decor...everyone working appears friendly and outgoing you get 2 servers working your table ... it's nice that it's a team effort...they have bowling.. pool...arcade games ..board games ( that you get in the shoe area) it's a funtime for everyone... I dont know about the food though. The drinks were pretty good. They had options for everyone...veg and non. Friend at the table got the kale melt and enjoyed it...I noticed they also have a variety of juices. Which is cool...
Pictured:
Green chorizo fries.... were okay ..wouldnt order again
A pig a duck and some cheese walk into a bar ...no
Chicken and waffle was described as okay by the person that ate it.
I got the mer man and liked it
A friend got the conga line we both enjoyed
We also tried shakes. Mine was minty.. I liked it.. couldnt find it on the menu though
It would probably be a 3 rating if there were not a plethora of activities
kristen Brantner
I highly recommend going to this place for a day full of fun. They had shuffle board, pool tables, giant connect 4, bowling, bean bag toss just to name a few things to do. The staff was extremely nice but ice cream machine was downand could get the awesome sounding shakes! This was not the last time I'll be going to this place it will be an every time occurance I'm in Milwaukee
Whitley R
I came in with two of my close friends and wanted to treat them with some green tea shots. our bartender, Ty, was very helpful and made the best green tea shot i’ve ever had! she also made great conversation and i just loved her vibe. i’m definitely gonna keep coming back!
Mike Horn
We went on a slow night but the service was still great and we had a great time. We bowled a game and had some issues with the scoring (Despite bowling spares and strikes it was sometimes not counting one of the pins falling down) but we still enjoyed everything. If you're visiting I recommend checking this place out!
Mason Lugo
Cool new spot right in the heart of downtown. Next to the fiserv forum, good city, and mecca(I believe). Great cocktail selection as well as delicious food. First time here and I was impressed, service here was actually really good. Very attentive to our table.
Annamaria Zarate
Went for Bucks vs Celtics play off game and TV's kept changing to food channel 🤦🙆
Food is great, good GF options. Beef in burgers is grass fed also a plus. Kid friendly atmosphere and perfect place for a first date . …
Forrest Nation
Located right across from the Fiserv Forum where the Bucks play - very fun vibe with lots to see and do. Shrimp tacos were great with just the right amount of spice. There are games galore available to play, many TVs all over the restaurant, and a patio/balcony area. Seem to be still working out the “new” factor but overall service is good.
Ra Lumpy Limpy Hiker
Cool place with lots of activities. Great place to host a party. A little pricy for karaoke, but the games are affordable and the food is delicious and reasonably priced.
Patricia Dilk
Very fun. Food was pretty good but our service was fantastic. Including Seven who greeted us at the door.
erin withey
Ty and Cass were awesome while my friend and I waited for the Panic! At the disco concert at the Fiserv.... which got canceled! New favorite bar though!!!!
SERKAN YORULMAZ
Great location! Tacos were amazing! we loved it! good drinks and nice atmosphere!
Andrew Krueger
This is a really cool place with lots of games, they even have a small bowling alley! Drinks and food were good too.
Barbara Gulten
This is a 3.5 star review - great location, huge space with varied spots to enjoy. Certainly builds up the energy before a game; very lively and gets packed. Cocktails were well done. Food is where it lacked and the fact that it took so long. Would not bother with food again, but would go for drinks. Right across from Fiserv with huge windows looking at it... perfect spot for pre-game shenanigans. Enjoy!
James Riegleman
Punch Bowl Social is a must see. The two story bar is made up of: restaurant, game room, bowling alleys (5 lanes), karaoke rooms (3 different themed rooms), lawn games, and indoor game. The bar has three bars within the bar itself and wait staff waiting on you no matter where you are or what you are doing - oh and they are extremely helpful and friendly. The place is flawless and the food/ drinks are extremely well done. This place was very thought out!
Erin Johansen
The host, Gillian, was amazing and super accommodating to our needs! Food and drinks were great and in a great location!
Dan Jackson
Great food. Fun games to play. Cool atmosphere.
Marie Nilson
Came here twice during our trip to Milwaukee. Food was great - we got the chicken caesar salad, queso dip and chicken sandwich all of which were excellent. Great outdoor patio seating.
M. O. Evans
This is a nice spot to go and people watch or just chill. I really enjoyed the food I had street tacos with beans carne asada. It was excellent, wait staff was also very nice. Would recommend to anyone looking to have a nice time can be a bit busy at late at night
Michel Ceron
Nice atmosphere. Thay have bowling and other games with extra cost. It takes some effort to get servers attention. The menu is a bit confusing. Prices are a bit high, food goes around $15 and drinks around $7.
Michelle Swalheim
Great addition to MKE! So many things to do, great food and beverage options! Place to go on date night or take the family to during the day. Service is awesome. We will be back!
(Came mid day on a Sunday and got a lane to bowl right away. I would guess this may be hard to do on a Friday or Saturday night).
Jim Knapinski
The food was pretty good, a bit pricey. Good atmosphere and a fun place to go anytime.
Adam Fritz
This is the perfect place to go before (or after) anything at Fiserv. Just make sure to have a reservation. The food and drinks were all excellent.
Bryan Jenkins
Fun vibe, food was WAY better than I expected. Bartender was friendly and had great suggestions for us "out of towners". Will return in our next trip to the Twin Cities
Betty Walker
It was a very nice and clean place. Food was good. The only thing I don't like is that the bartenders share the tips. We had two bartenders, the lady made sure we were good the entire night and guy did nothing but still got money for it.
Madison Mabin
Fun atmosphere, great punch! Staff is probably the friendliest it can get, very helpful! The chicken and waffles is beautiful and delicious.
Jay S
Not all that impressed. The place itself has cool amenities, but when the bartender has to get help making a gin and tonic that's an issue. It wasn't the only service problem our group had. I know they just reopened so they get the benefit of the doubt...
Dean Rudoll
Was there for a office party on the 2nd floor. All the staff were absolutely great. The food was fantastic. Drinks were very expensive it's a good thing we had drink vouchers. That was the only downside.
Morgan Haschke
Soooooo good. So much to do and look at. Many awesome foods to chose from, fairly priced too. And everyone working there is super friendly. I had the shrimp tacos the first time, next time I’m trying the rosemary fries and one of their burgers 🤤 …
Sara Goodhue
Ty was the best server. paid attention to us as soon as we walked in. made our night worth the trip
kristen williams
It has a great ambiance with the game options and karaoke. The food isn't top notch and you may have to seek out a server instead of one just automatically coming to you when you arrive ( the reasons why they don't get five stars from me). The building and bathrooms were very clean. The location and view from inside is great! It is kid friendly up until 10 pm (I believe may need to call and make sure of that). It is definitely a place to check out if you are in the area.
Mom Of 2 Amazingly Wonderful Children
Hoppin' busy place...tasty punch bowls and something for everyone on the menu. Tons of fun games to play and can't wait to be able to be out on the patio in the summer!
Luke Jansen
Fries were amazing. Service was great. Highly recommend.
Thays primaveraart
Beautiful place excellence design, food great and attention personalized so especial . I recommended this place
Dr. Anntoinettemarie Williams
Great food and awesome services. Baked beans were a bit spicy and the brisket was just ok.
Evan Romel
Punch Bowl Social was a very fun time and a great place to spend the evening with a couple of friends or a large party gathering. The nachos were delicious and meat free if you're into that kind of thing. Bowling was fun and the operator allowed us to finish our game which was very generous of them. The burgers that my friends got were of very high quality in terms of the meat though a bit lack luster in terms of individuality; the wow factor. Nachos and fries were good though. The mixed drinks were very tasty and I had a few beers that I had yet to try. The environment receives an A+ for me. The size of the place is vast enough to accommodate the large crowd present with enough attractions for everyone. All in all, a very good time and would highly recommend.
NICHOLAS NELDNER
Multiple visits hoping for better each time. Food is great and atmosphere is nice. The service has never been good. Very slow to take drink order and 3 of 4 times I just went to the bar and ordered for my table. Lucky if you get a server without asking. But I will keep trying the food is worth the trouble.
Cory C
My Husband and I had brunch there yesterday. It wasn't busy, there were several open tables. We seated ourselves on the second floor balcony per the hostess. The waitress was pleasant, but service was really slow. I asked 3 times to have the table wiped off before she returned to do it, explaining she couldn't find a cloth. People next to us were told no menus were available, so we gave them ours. When food arrived, it was good but eggs were over cooked and really salty. One staff member couldn't tell me if there was a bathroom on that floor. Wait staff delivering food were overheard complaining about a customer. Management needs to do some serious training with there staff.
Shane Cohen
The staff was amazing. On Easter Sunday we stopped in and the staff was so attentive and took my children around on an Easter egg hunt. They were awesome!
Ray Alexander
Meal was excellent,people were very friendly, made our visit very enjoyable. Thank You
Ian Addison
Place has great potential with all sorts of bar games and private karaoke. Drink selection is large and food seems appetizing.
I came during opening week during a bucks game on a company outing. Upstairs is open seating and can be very tough to get a table. No reservations for over 8 people so had to wait out a large table. Got drinks and food. Drinks came but food was delivered to a different table. Management came over and was very apologetic and comped everything. Hoping things get more straightened out as they find their feet. Maybe have table numbers?
Autumn Kieffer
Giving it a 3 because the atmosphere is pretty cool but everything else was pretty bad. Specialty drinks were super weak and super sweet - coming from someone who bartended for 11 years I would probably just get a bottle or can of something if I went back. You wont be catching a buzz unless you're ordering three times what you normally would. Not enough staff for the size of the place. Poor service when you finally do get a person to assist you. Bowling for 4 for an hour will run you $48, which might be worth it if their ball return worked or they knew how to reset the pins that got tangled. At that price they should have staff to wait on you at the lanes as well instead of going over to one of the bars. Overall it was underwhelming but we made the best of it with some great friends, doubt I'll be back anytime soon. Hopefully they fix these things because it is a cool business concept.
Tommy B
Great food and bar service! Fun games as well, played some pool and went bowling!
Kelly
Depends on when you go...sadly another Deer District location that even after a year can't get staffing, inventory, and most importantly customer service right when there is any event happening. The concept is fantastic with bowling and karaoke and lots of nooks and crannies to the quirky "always Food Network" alcove. When available, the food is above average and diverse. If there is an event of any kind I would recommend leaving a very, very long lead time to get served...if it is a huge Bucks game night, I'd suggest saving the visit for another time and eating elsewhere.
James from Texas
They have taken the sports bar/restaurant to the next level. The food is top notch and the drinks are great. The staff is professional and efficient. I can't believe they actually have bowling alleys in the facility. We played on the 8 man foosball table. I had a fabulous time.
Sunny K
Had the opportunity to sit on the roofdeck. Staff was friendly and we were seated right away. It wasn't too busy when I went here. ordered the falafel burger with rosemary fries. It was delicious. 1 comments for an area in need of improvement was that there were people playing a game. I believe it was bags up stairs. The laughter and loud noise became very annoying. However I think this is a great venue and I would definitely come here again.
Terry Kaphingst
Salad was tasty, drinks were unusual yet flavors were perfectly blended. We sat outside on the patio on a sunny Thursday afternoon in downtown Milwaukee. The new Deer District is beautiful and is a great place for fun, food and entertainment. Service should have been a little quicker since it was really not busy. Hostess could use some better people skills and energy. Felt like we were putting her out when we asked to see the menu before being sested. They should post a menu outside for people to check out so that they need not bother the staff if it is not what they are looking for.
Darquita Moore (Dar)
Took my friend here for his birthday. Staff was friendly and helpful. Bowling was fun. Drinks were good. Food was good.
mahmoud chamaa
Amazing bartender service by Ty and Cass. Made amazing lemon drop shot
Craig Coulter
Awesome spot right by Fiserv. Cass and Ty were the best, great service!
Monique Wilhite-Cobb
Nice environment before Bucks games. Ordered multiple dishes. Burger w/ rosemary fries, buffalo wings and cheese dip. Burger was drastically under seasoned, not even a hint of salt. Fries were sent without ANY rosemary. Wings also tasted as if they weren't seasoned. As a season ticket holder and someone who might want to frequent this place a lot, I'll probably eat beforehand. Very friendly staff!
Andy W.
The food was delicious but service was a bit slow. Our poor waiter had way too many tables. This was right after the final Buck's game so I'm willing to give them a pass for expecting it to be a slow day. Definitely will go back and will update review then.
Julie K (jegulzz)
The food was so-so. The service, not so much. My guess is they are short staffed. Our server, Hasani, seemed less than thrilled that he actually had to wait on us. They were out of ice cream. So that left all shakes, both “boozy” and non, off the table. They were also out of: cauliflower nachos, cauliflower grits, And romaine lettuce. The brisket hash had about 8-10 very tiny pieces of “meat”. (They were predominantly fat). In addition, the dish was quite cold. Everyone was served their food except one. Her meal came about 10 minutes Later. The whole lunch experience was over 4 hours. Overall, I’m not sure we would return. Maybe for the games, but definitely not for the food. Not sure how they will take care of the Bucks crowd that would be arriving shortly after we left.
Rob Geitner
Awesome venue and the service was great. It was busy but they had plenty of staff and they were super nice.
Deanna Stever
Drinks good, food I didn't think was all that great. Food portions are all small. I'm ok with that but priced at normal prices. Just be awareso you don't expect much when you order. I was not hungry after and didn't have leftovers to drag around so I was ok. I wouldn't rush back but if out at an event maybe I'd stop for a drink. The bowling looked fun. I rated my rating mainly because of the food.
Daniel Annear
This is a really cool new bar in the deer district. They have tons of different games you can play as well as a bowling alley. They close pretty early so be weary of that but I would highly recommend. Great for large groups going for drinks or small groups grabbing some food.
Anthony Henderson
Great place to quick grab a drink and a bite to eat. I did not eat, I only sat at the bar and had a drink while waiting for a friend to show up so we could checkout the Christmas Market, but I was very impressed with the ambience and quality of the drinks. They also have a bowling lane in the building, so that's awesome
Ramona Verburgt
It was a fun place. Love how it looks over the Deer district and the Fiserv forum. Drinks were good but pricey. I had a Whiskey old fashioned and it was very good. My son had a Bloody Mary, he said was good.
ccsquared69
On a busy Friday night we were told there was an hour wait....then minutes later we get seated? Love the chicken and waffles but watch out for that spicy syrup? Vanilla rice krispie squares were awesome! LOVE the new pinball machines.
jim corona
Quick service, good food, great location, friendly staff
Qiana Bolden
I went twice in a span of 3 days. They were out of chicken and waffles BOTH days. The first time was a Thursday at 11:30am. The crab rangoon dip is AWESOME. The second time (which happened to be after a Bucks game); they were out of the dip as well. Plan better! Great games.
Justin Cormia
Fun, spacious, bar game spot with decent food/drinks. It’s right in the center of the deer district so the atmosphere is pretty electric especially during bucks games. Lots of bar games to play there. Darts, foosball, bowling, pool, air hockey. Good spot to go with a group of friends for an enjoyable evening.
Jing Schmidt
Hip place, nice location, good service, a lot of options.
Thomas Howard
Good unique variety of tacos & wings. Very
Patti Wilburn
Very cool place! Great food and super nice people. We were there for a bite to eat before a concert at Fiserv Forum so we didn't get to check out all the features but it looks like a giant adult playground with a bowling alley, ping pong, pool table, nice bars, great outdoor areas, and more. We would love to go back and check it out further sometime.
Elicia B.
My company's holiday party was hosted here and we all had such an amazing time! The food was incredible, everyone on staff was so so lovely and attentive and the place itself is gorgeous and brand new. I was so impressed. I hope we can come back for next year's party!
Matt Balistreri
Attended the opening night and was definitely impressed. The staff was really in tune and super friendly and attentive. It's a very interesting place with lots to do. The views from the upstairs are great looking at the fiserv forum. We will definitely be back to check things out when it's open and operating for real.
Terry Reed
Took my son there for his birthday to watch the bucks game. Had a lot of fun. Pretty expensive, but well worth it.
Tricia
Cool place to hang out, but definitely needs to get more seating to entertain everyone who will be going there before concerts, events, and have games. Good food and good drinks though! It would be fun to go there to play all the games they have too.
Andrew Krystowiak
Could be a great new spot in Milwaukee but it's off to a slow start. The place has been open for only two weeks and some of the games are already broke. Sat down at a near empty bar and waited almost 10 minutes for a drink. Very slow service at the game cage. Doesn't seem like a place I'll visit frequently.
ben zinda
Nice place. Went for company Christmas party
Probably would not have gone if I was paying, it is pretty expensive but the food was good whether it is worth the money....meh I think its matter of opinion. I think your paying more for the experience of being in the Deer district with the atmosphere of downtown
Ellen Hanke
Very noisy but younger clientele seemed to enjoy. Not enough staff though. We waited over 20 minutes for take-out Benets but were not told it would take that long. If they did, we would have taken a table & ordered cocktails. Missed opportunity for you!
Justine Filapek
It's a nice place to get snacks in the middle of the week during the day - not very busy at all. No rushed feeling and you can really check the whole place out. Portion sizes are very small for the price - they are nice for snacking and taste real good, just high dollar for quantity served and not at all close to a meal. The queso IS wonderful. There are a lot of activities; bowling, corn hole, giant Connect Four, and others including what they CALL giant Jenga, but is really just pudgy Jenga. If it fits on the table WITH drinks and snack plates, it's not giant. Very friendly staff, maybe too many filling us in on how the place works (though since we were there even before the lunch hour downtown, they were probably bored and needed something to do until people started coming in.
E.
This place is fun. I went before a Bucks game and wish I had planned to spend more time there. Bowling alleys, karaoke rooms, all the normal bar games. Just a delight. It's pricey, but you should expect that from a bar across from the Forum.
Andrew Potter
Stopped in for a bite and a beer before an Admirals game. Forgot there was a Bucks game that night as well. It was PACKED, even 3 hours before tipoff. Had the sweet & spicy wings and the green chorizo fries. Food was awesome! Too bad we were in a hurry! Looking forward to going back.
Nick Saidai
1st time here I was greeted professionally, went upstairs having no idea where to begin, the bartender Hasani offered to show me around and explain how everything worked. I knew about two minutes into the offered and not requested tour that this will be a place I come back to frequently. Drinks and food were excellent, service was better.
Cody Peters
Came for the VIP opening night had an absolute blast. Lots of fun things to do. Can definitly get a little tight around the bar areas but when play games you have room where people aren't bumping into you. Awesome location right east of fiserv forum. We were there before a bucks game and saw all the people flowing In across the street to the stadium. Really cool area and a good time. Definitly go check this place out. Indoor bowling alleys I believe there are 6 lanes in the place ( 3 separate places with 2 lanes) karaoke rooms, darts, live music, arcade, all sorts of games to play. The food was all fantastic and the drinks were all prime.
Jennifer Manyfield
What a cool place to hang. You can bowl, play ping pong, various board games and before 10pm children are welcome.
I only sampled the green chorizo fries and they were delicious. I'll definitely go back. Fear the Deer
Jason Weeks
Concept is really cool. There's a ton to do, but it takes forever to get a drink. The bathrooms down stairs are terrible. There's only 1 mens, one womans, and one genderless and there all just singles so there's a freaking line. The men's one had bad water leakage running down the walls and pooling up on the floor. I know the place just opened, and I'm sure they need some time to fix all the bugs. So hopefully by May or June I'll be in there after a playoff game and I'll have a better experience.
Justin Hoffman
Great service from Ty tonight!! Friendly and quick, thanks for a great evening!!
Diann Ikeler
Atmosphere is very fun! Bowling, ping pong, pool, bags, etc could keep you busy for hours. Food menu is a bit minimal but everything we had was good
Seek God First
We went on 1/21/2020 so there was no bucks game and it was empty...YAY!!!
Our server Mario was very nice and was extremely patient when i didn't like the first 3 drinks i tried.
Finally he said the bartender Meelah wanted to make me her specialty drink called the STRAWBERRY LEMON DROP and it was AMAZING!!!
So from now on when i go, i'll call first to see if Meelah is there because she's the only person that knows how to make it because it's not on their menu.
Mario and Meelah made our experience GREAT!!!
Matthew Barnard
I have no idea what this place is trying to be.
There is no way on this Earth that I would spend $30-50 on a bowl of punch.
That being said, the drink selection is vast and there are activities everywhere. Millennial playgrounds like this are fun, but to what end?
Don't try to go here before a Bucks game. Just go to Good City instead.
They do have karaoke rooms, so there's that.
dorothy s
We went when the Bucks were out of town, so there was room to move. There are two levels and games(which most you have to pay for) bowling, darts(free) karaoke (not free) and free board games. We've been there when the Bucks are playing and you can't even move.
David Steinbrenner
Great service and food was pretty good.
Jonathan Brochu
Although the 2 bowling alleys are rubbish (problem with the strings pulling the pins upward and not bringing them back down completely and/or in a terrible position - not a proper triangle), it's fun to play with friends. Food is very good too.

The craft cocktails are enough to make a trip here! However, the food was so good, the service was friendly and on time, and the atmosphere was very fun. I can't wait to go back!
Jaren Singh
Service was not great. There were at least 5 items that we tried to order and were told they were out of. The concept and atmosphere are great, but our server was slow and the food was alright. Want to try it again sometime.
Liz Kravitz
Went before the game - staff was so nice! Food was great! It was especially awesome since the place nextdoor quickly turned us away and we're quite rude.
Josh Steib
Decent selection of beers. Food is pretty good, not a huge menu. A little pricey. Definitely a fun place for families and a group of friends. Located in a great, activity filled location.
Brandon King
Attended the grand opening party, and they hired a very trashy hard rock garage band. Definitely not the right music for that particular event. I could, however, see this place being very fun with a group of friends.
Matthew Salmon
First time visiting. And it was pretty darn cool. It had a vintage feel, that didn't come with hipster service. Relaxing, and exciting for a Friday. Drinks were on the expected higher side but eh, it's cool.
Danny Marlowe
Ty was the best. Great attitude and great drinks
Chris F
Had one guy taking care of a group of maybe 12 of us there for a bday get-together. Had a table but then moved to bowling lanes. Same server kept our party and had a separate tab going for every person without us requesting that. Fantastic
Kurtis Schulte
The wait was a little long but granted it was during a bucks game. Fantastic burger, particularly the pickles were fresh. Definitely recommend for a bucks pregame area!!!
Josh Goodman
I wish the world didn't have restaurant reviews. This place is exactly what you should expect. Was service the greatest for game 2? No, but I didn't expect it to be. Good food, good drinks and good people watching!
Bridget Norris
I took my mom and aunt here this morning for breakfast and it was great. They have lots of unique drinks and menu items and the service was fantastic. Loved it.
Myles Johnson
I had only heard of Punchbowl through friends prior to their location opening in Milwaukee - but I must say it's worth the hype! It's a really fun place with SO much to do. You can bowl, play ping pong, compete in giant jenga, and they even have a huge foosball table for your whole group. The drinks are a mix of specialty cocktails, all the way to $3 Blatz - definitely a mix for all walks of life. The location is hard to beat in Milwaukee's Deer District right by the Fizerv Forum but if you're in Milwaukee, this place is a lot of fun to go to!
John Hoehn
Honestly, expensive, loud, and basic vanilla games. If you like Yahtzee, you'll be fine cause no one wants to play it, but you'll be waiting to get a chance at the other games. As a bar, way too crowded for my tastes.
Connor Gannon
Amazing food. Great entertainment. Highly recommend for pregame party’s. Has bowling. Giant Jenga. And great food. Try it out and rate it yourself. I bet you will rate it better than me.
Tiffany Barksdale
Very good food!! Had the barbacoa tacos accompanied with delicious beans (taste like cowboy beans..yummay). A bit on the expensive side with only one tortilla but it is dtown (shrug).
Rich Tadych
Great tacos! Not sure if the bean soup was supposed to be room temp but I would have preferred it hot. Outstanding place to eat before a Bucks game!
S Hoop
Went for bowling and had a great time. 10$ per a hour per a person. If you have two people you can probably get three games in.
Rob Redmerski
First time there and it was very impressive with bowling, pool, ping pong, darts, foosball, and more than enough screens to keep track of your favorite sports. The food is above average and resonalbly priced. Great place to visit after the fiserv forum...
Laura Mullins
So fun!! Great food and excellent drinks. Bowling was a blast. However the scoring system wasn’t perfect. Hope it’s fixable because I want to go again.
Jarred Glaser
Love Punch Bowl Social. This is an awesome addition to the Bucks Plaza and definitely a destination spot for dining/night life in MKE. Tons of fun things to do, great drinks, and great food. Highly recommend to anyone looking for something fun and different to do in Milwaukee.
Michael Krass
Was there for a meeting. Not a goid place as the noise level isn't goid for holding meetings. To me they seemed a bit pricey on the drinks. Didn't look at the food menu so I don't know what it is like.
Joshua DeGrasse-Baumann
This place is incredible. Multiple bowling lanes, a small arcade, board games, multiple bars, and a fantastic view of both Fiserv Forum and Milwaukee in general. This is going to be a gem for years.
Dave Chmielewski
Fun, fun place. Attended a work holiday party and we had the entire upper level, there is something there for every age. Staff was awesome and food was even better.
Sarfraz Ahmed
This is a great a place to socialize with friends and family. I was invited to a bachelorette party over here. There were karaoke rooms, bowling lanes, arcade games, etc. to socialize over. it's a big, great place to hangout!
Jason Pankoff
Real cool atmosphere and good drinks. They have bowling lanes, like 4, and a pool table. Patio on the second floor across from the Fiserv that is cool.
Jon Blake
Awesome views of the city with a great layout. Theres tons to do and I'm so happy with this new addition to downtown. The staff was nice and even opened the door for me as I walked in.
John Reeves
Food is actually very good. Funny place for family or adults. Lots of games to play. Bowling, shuffle board, and video games. Games are overpriced though. But it 100 feet from Fiserv Forum.
Deisy Brangman
Hosted event with beer & wine open bar and taco bar. Great service & food. Guacamole was a bit too salty. Lots of fun bowling.
Libby Reed
So many fun things to do here. I love to just check out a deck of cards or a board game and compete in a friendly competition. Also didn't know I was actually good at darts till played a round here.
Chelsea Baker
A good place to get a snack ahead of an event, or, a place to play some fun games indoors. There aren't a ton of vegan options, so it isn't always my go to for that reason.
Sebastian Dziedzic
This place is great, they have lots of things to do like bowling and games and the food is great as well. They have a decent selection of drinks, and some gluten free options.
Nick Krueger
Service at the downstairs bar kinda sucked and the $40 punch bowl for 4 people was hardly enough for a drink for three people. Other than that the atmosphere is super cool
Sh' Turn
Place is nice but Expensive af... damn near $20 for a shot. Won't go there too often
Charles Stellmach
Even though it was an away game we had a great time! There was something for everyone!
Roger Minick
First time attending and had a terrific time. Enjoyed the atmosphere. Andrea was a great part of our experience.

Rob Hermann
I heard this place is expensive, it was 3 dollars more than other places. That's not expensive to me. I liked my food. Service was pretty prompt on a busy night.
Frank Peeters
It was a very good place to eat. The food was delicious and the waiter was very nice.
Fun place. The chef even came to our table.
Pete Holler
They ran out of one item we ordered (after only being open a few hours) and food took rather long to come out. Otherwise I would have given 5 stars.
TMH
Fun spot
Boyce Evans
This is a great place for food, fun, and games! Life size Jenga, bowling,
Katherine Turmel
Very cool venue with a lot of space and multiple bars. Went with a small group and there were plenty of games open to play on a Friday night.
Amy Cardin
Staff was very attentive to a party 20+.
Activities are at a 10 and be glad no axes are involved. Drinks are perfect.
Chantelle Walker
Valentine was a wonderful server! Fun atmosphere, yummy comfort food! Highly recommend! Will definitely be back!
Court
Had a birthday party here and we all loved it! They have mini bowling and plenty more games! Definitely will be back!
Laura O'Connor Eimon
We had a group of 18 and had so much fun upstairs playing Jenga and enjoying the view of Fiserv Forum. The punch is delicious!
Alexander Timmer
Very cool. Food was good. Most games cost money, but there is plenty of free fun. I'd recommend checking it out.
Michael Toll
MKE is changing, just come down to the new 'Deer District' to see what is new. They have many games to play. It is more fun than a typical bar.
Sharon Garza
the food was really good. Rosemary fries leave a terrible after taste though. Cool place with a little bowling alley
Ladonna Walton
Wonderful service Thanks KoKo! She was customer service at its Best!
Cody Grillaert
I went there for the grand opening party tonight. Great fun, drinks and atmosphere. Would highly recommend, wont disappoint.

Such a fun place. Love all the games and options. The chicken street tacos were beyond delicious with amazing flavor!!
Michael Heaven
There is a 2 lane bowling alley inside the Punch Bowl. The food was good. They have a variety of beers.
Brian Meissner
Plenty of games and you can tell the atmosphere will be great during the Bucks title run this year!!
Maximum RobespierreXVII (Max)
The food was pretty good and the service was great. I'd like to go back and do some karaoke or some of the other activities.
Toni Berning
Awesome place but very crowded on the weekend nights. Better off going during odd hours if you want to bowl or find a table.
Dean Sarnowski
First time there..really cool place. Great burger and really good chocolate shake. Curious to try the bowling there sometime.
Marcus Pollesch
Amazing lemon drops from Ty and Cass
Jack Patterson
It was not a place we would have chosen to met up with friends.... Too loud with the bowling alley.... Flashing neon lights, not good for someone with seizures.... Did not find the menu appealing, so we did not eat anything....
Evan Schilling
Decent bar and restaurant with reasonable food and prices. Has a number of interesting activities (bowling, giant Jenga, etc.) around the building to enjoy as well.
Colleen Pedersen
Place is fun and food was great but service was so slow. It was not crowded and we wait 30 min for drink and almost an hour for food
Deep Singh
Cool spot with a nice vibe and an awesome location. There's something here for everyone, so this is a great starting point if you're having a hard time finding a place to go because of differences in opinion!
T'Anna Holst
Bowling scoring was not accurate but the manager did reimburse us with a $50 gift card. Otherwise lots of options for games and things to do with friends.
Michel Cros
Great place to have fun, meet people, excellent service and great food
Vikki P

tunisia Evans
Jen was great at serving and giving us options on the menu since it was our very first time there.
Emily Devalkenaere
It is beautiful and trendy, but has a really poor TV setup for sports. They need more, larger TVs to watch the Bucks game!
Traci Tessone
I've been here twice while visiting the christkindlmarket. Both times the service has been great and food and drinks so yummy!!

Don't like the idea of using text messages to get a table. I don't want to have to look at my phone the entire time while I'm waiting. "Next time" I'll forget my phone.

Mike McKean
Great menu and drinks even for GF and DF options.
