    I used to think I disliked bars. Walker's Pint made me realize that I actually just dislike a lot of the clientele and decor of most bars. Never before in a bar have I felt so safe and like I fully belonged. Never before have I felt so comfortable being flirted at by strangers. At the same time it didn't feel boring or dull in any way. It felt like I was getting a fuller, richer bar experience than I have in the past because I usually have to be always on the lookout or worried about a variety of dangerous situations, or am generally irate by the signs of unfunny, old, weary jokes about nagging wives. My girlfriend and I (we live in Madison) went here thinking "it's one of the last lesbian bars and we're in the city, we should go just to support it", and thought we'd get a drink each and just leave soon. We ended up staying for a super long time, having conversations with multiple people, playing Giant Connect 4 and Giant Jenga, and drinking a whole bunch. I now want to make sure to go back here every time we're in Milwaukee, and really really wish it was closer to where I live. So excited to come back to Milwaukee sometime and hang out here again!

    wasn’t very crowded which was nice but also a little unexpected stayed until about 1 am. bar staff was decent & got drinks quickly & they were nice. we’re not very strong pours seemed very light but i wasn’t worried about it. would visit again.

    I never rate things because capitalism is dying and nothing matters yadda yadda...but having giant jugs of CHILLED water out for your patrons on a 100 degree day? 5 stars. Thank you. (Also the place has a great vibe and fantastic servers.)

    The bouncer at this place is apparently an orthopedic MD. I am also an MD. "Do I reak of booze? Are my eyes dilated? Am I slurring my words. I have a Texan accent. Due to powerlifting since I was 12 and college level hurdles/triple jump. Then I was a pro rugby player (go Austin Valkyries). Breakdancing after that. So I need a total left hip replacement and I'm waiting on it. He denied me entry. I proceeded to burn the house down at Level. Your bouncer is not a MD. I owned it, tons of new fans. You shunned away the wrong person. The music at Level was so good I had to keep going. An intoxicated person could not have done my moves. Your bar is not Sue Ellen's or S4 in Dallas. Get over yourself. Edit: when in Dallas I get special skip the 2 hr line of people paying $20 cover charge. Because I am that good. So angry. Look up Sue Ellen's. It beats your bar into the ground. Breakdance crews from NY fly there to practice. Don't think I will ever visit your establishment again. Show me a wasted person that can tie a Windsor knot.

    My party of 4 and I came into an empty bar last night and ordered beers. About halfway through I went up to order shots for us and the bartender mocked me in an exaggerated valley girl voice saying we were too drunk for shots. We all had just gotten done with dinner and had 1 drink and weree just chatting minding our own business. I’d have understood if we were actually trashed and being wild but that wasn’t the case.. If you don’t like your job or making money you could have just said that instead of being disrespectful for seemingly no reason. Even if you truly believed we were too drunk for shots it would have cost you absolutely nothing to be kind about it. I used to enjoy my time here but that experience with her did not sit well with me.

    Was there for the first time last Tuesday, and I’m so glad I went to check the place out! Good atmosphere, and the bartender was friendly and welcoming. I’ll definitely be back the next time I’m in Milwaukee.

    Much bigger inside then it looks from outside. Lots of game day specials for all sports teams and a fun atmosphere with plenty of room out back plus a pool table in another room. Friendly staff and good drink prices .

    Love the vibes. I came into this bar when I was sad and the atmosphere lifted my spirits. This is a place where everyone is welcome. There is a patio in the back for smokers and a pool table, darts and good drinks at a great price. They also sell tshirts which I thought was cool. My size wasn't sitting on the shelf so the bartender kindly went and hunt for one and found it! You can also purchase snacks and they'll cook you a pizza. One stop shop for fun! No fights just happiness!

    After many years of being out of the bar scene, I really enjoyed being here! So welcoming! (I'm 60+ and felt very comfortable here)

    Local, lesbian dive bar with warm, welcoming atmosphere. Great karaoke shows and reasonable prices! My go to is their soft pretzel with cheese for 3.50, but they have good pizza too, and a large variety of snacks.

    I seriously could not be more grateful, I lost my wallet here and the bartender was incredibly helpful, she took me around to look for it, unfortunately it wasn't found however she took me to the owner who gave me money from her own wallet to replace the tickets that I lost. I will forever be grateful for what they've done for me today, this is a very reputable establishment. Thank you so much for everything!

    Great Sunday Funday spot. If you’re going to be indoors at a bar during the day then this is the spot. Great natural light!

    Walkers Pint is a true gem in MKE. A friendly, modest sports bar that welcomes all kinds of people, as long as you're kind in turn. Great prices, fun bartenders, and creative events.

    Absolutely perfect atmosphere!! The vibes were so fun and welcoming, it felt so safe to just be! Cannot recommend enough, they had games in a little patio/garden area and darts inside. The beer was cold and fresh and the service was outstanding!!
