Swingin' Door Exchange

This is our favorite Milwaukee "go to" -- which we think must be something said by LOTS and LOTS of people because the only drawback is that it's so fantastic, it can be hard to find a time that it isn't packed. Great atmosphere that's nostalgic tavern / pub. We moved here a year ago and found this place the nigh we rolled into town. From that visit to now, we're always made to feel like we've been coming in for years and are valued regulars. The food is great with rotating specials -- even if you aren't a carrot fan, convince someone in your party to get them and you'll be converted :) Always good food, always good people and we like to joke that this is where the friendliest Milwaukee people hang out because everyone is always friendly and nice.

Stopped for lunch, had a ham & turkey club which was great but huge so I took the other half home. Not a fan of the fries which are lightly coated for crispiness but wouldn't discourage others from trying. Also, the Russian sandwich was a great and very large portion per my husband. Service was great and the bartender was very talkative. The prices were good considering the portions. Definitely give it a try!

Great food here at a popular spot for locals. Ridiculously crowded on a Tuesday night at 6:15. 45 minute wait for a table but I was lucky to get a seat at the bar right away.
Staff are really friendly and attentive.
The shrimp tacos (Tuesday special) were delicious and they ran out shortly after my order. I heard from the people near me that the vegetation tacos are to die for. And these were not vegetarians!
Steak was cooked exactly how I ordered and the beets were terrific. Definitely pick beets for your side!

We had a great time sitting outside in the beautiful Milwaukee summer weather! The garlic missiles were amazing and with a generous portion. I had the Reuben with chili, and my spouse had the beet and goat cheese salad. Both were excellent. Great service and an excellent experience. I will definitely return!

Never judge a book by its cover or a restaurant by its decor! This place has some GREAT food. The sriracha chicken sandwich was so delicious! Id definitely come back!
