    First time to this theatre, and we thought it was a good one! Very clean, provides all of the…read moretypical movie concessions, has a good size arcade, and bowling lanes (though they were not operating while we were there). We visited on a Tuesday and tickets were only $8! Not sure if that was just a special, but seems damn cheap compared to typical visits to a movie theatre. The seats were comfy as can be - couch style, recline all the way back, and are headed! We saw the F1 movie (which was fantastic), and the whole surround sound system here made it that much more enjoyable. If you're looking for something beyond popcorn, candy, and sodas, they do have a restaurant attached where you can get apps, entrees, and alcoholic drinks to-go (i.e. to take into the theatre with you). I'm sure many folks in the area, like myself, are used to the Marcus Theatres where you can have food delivered to your seat, but just a heads up that isn't the case here. Seemed a bit understaffed overall, as lines were long and service was pretty darn slow, but everything we purchased hit the spot. I mean who doesn't love buttery popcorn at the cinema!?

    I really enjoyed coming to this theatre! It's clean. The seats are very comfy and in the winter,…read moreit's amazing because they're not only recliners, they're also heated!!!! It makes for such a nice experience. I didn't interact with the staff much only because I don't get popcorn. It was easy peasy! An overall good experience and I would definitely return.

    The very definition of old school. This old timey Southside tavern and bowling palace still has…read moremanual up setting (tip 'em, ok?) You need to make lane reservations because there are only 2 - in the basement. They have bowling shoes that may or may not fit you. The whole place is full of vintage memorabilia and family staff has great pride in this place. Reasonable priced drinks and amazing hospitality! No food but they encourage you to order from a nearby pizza spot. It's been a stop for many famous folks (bands etc) but they have a dedicated group of regulars. It was cribbage night on our visit and the place was packed with guys (and gals) that still use words like "dupa". Not visiting this place would be a shame. Support this completely unique MKE business!

    An icon in Milwaukee, and it took us many years to make it here…read more We have a current date night tradition to break us out of our normal rut by making our way through the alphabet by location each month, and we're on our second round of the alphabet, which led us to H. There are not a lot of H places on our list, and Holler House is legendary, so we figured we needed to hit it up now since it takes us about two years to get through the alphabet! We made reservations for the lanes in advance online, the owners greeted us when we arrived, shared some great history of the place and gave us some tips for ordering pizza from nearby Ned's (which we also had never tried) since we hadn't had dinner yet, and we had two hours of lane time. We learned that the back bar is the same as Wolski's, and once I heard that I recognized the stained glass motif flanking the ends of the bar. The two lanes are down a flight of carpeted stairs and there are four seats down there as well as holders on the wall for your drinks and a teeny women's room tucked off one of the lanes. Scoring is done by paper the old fashioned way unless you want to use an app. We had some friends who were willing to tag along to watch us and or/bowl some really low scores, and we had a good time. Max was our pinsetter and did a stellar job setting the pins back up and sending our balls back our way. In the bowling alley, you can play Touch Tunes, but we ended up forgoing the music and just enjoying the games and camaraderie. While we were bowling, the upstairs was transformed into a cribbage tournament space, and the place was full with players, but not overly loud despite the crowd. I noticed they had a selection of wines (and it wasn't the single serve Sutter Home/Yellow Tail), but expecting more of a dive bar selection I had already gone with vodka tonics, which were tasty at $5. Cathy made sure we were enjoying ourselves, and the owners seem to have themselves a great neighborhood place where they are carrying on the family history. If you haven't been and have thought about going, go. Do it.
