    I always save this spot for a special moment. The inside is low warm lighting, candles, and beautiful decorations. The very first time I came here was on Valentine's Day in a small snow storm. This past time, there wasn't a snow storm but somehow coming here is always magical. The bar is always crowded after 6pm so make sure if you're bringing friends to come a little earlier, but either way I'm a sucker for waiting for any of the draft drinks bc they're so unique.

    We have driven by many times and have always wanted to stop in. We stopped by for a quick drink or two before going to dinner. There is plenty of outdoor space for those warmer days, but since it was chilly out we went inside. Eclectic, classic, hometown bar feel on the inside. We ordered an old fashioned and one of the cocktails on tap, Hop Wop. Drinks were great and service was kind. We would love to stop by sometime in the summer and tray some more of the menu

    Cozy. Quaint. Cool. Hip. Friendly. Fun. I could go on, but I think you get the idea. They have an excellent beer selection. If you're not sure what you're looking for, the bartenders are happy to offer suggestions. Cocktails and shots are available, too. Please pace yourself.

    Walking into this place is like walking into a gnome bar. Super cozy and feels like you are underground, with cozy animal and root decor to match. I was obsessed. They have pool, games, and cheap beers. I want to come back.

    If you're looking for a cozy spot to grab a drink in Bay View, Burnhearts is definitely worth checking out! The atmosphere is laid-back and welcoming, and the bartenders are friendly and knowledgeable. They have a great selection of craft beers and cocktails, and the prices are reasonable. Check them out for a drink and some good conversation. Burnhearts is the perfect spot!

    Highlights/Lowlights 1) Chill, Relaxed Atmosphere 2) Fun Cocktails 3) Small Selection of Board/Card Games We love this BayView staple! Burnhearts is quite large with a bar in front and some tables, and then a big space in the back with more tables as well as a pool table. This is a great spot to grab a few cocktails with friends. The atmosphere is very chill/relaxed and casual. There are a few board and card games you can use while you are enjoying your drinks as well. There is a nice selection of unique cocktails. My cocktail had chai tea infused vodka and it was great! Staff is friendly and approachable. Highly recommend if you are looking for a casual, no frills place to grab a drink!

    We came in town later on the Sunday before Labor Day. We wanted to stop in based on reviews but thought we would be "one and done" with drinks or beer only. At the time of this review they have vegetarian pizza which is right up our alley. My Oktoberfest was on point and her mixed drink was even better than expected. For out of towners, we felt right at home and the bar staff was kind and helpful. We also felt like this is a very inclusive environment. While this is only off of one visit, this place sure hit the spot for us on a Sunday night!

    Burnhearts is exactly what I want in a bar. It's cute, but it's not fancy. It's casual, but it's not a total dive. It's got a great drink menu, but the servers are willing to help you find something you will enjoy. There is plenty of cozy outdoor seating, but the inside is comfortable as well. Everything about Burnhearts is just...great. I have never had a bad experience coming here. My drinks are always delicious. I'm not a beer drinker, but the beer list is quite extensive. I go for the cocktails and they usually have some really interesting ones on the menu. The prices are comparable to other bars around the city, but definitely pricier than what you would pay at a true "dive bar." Definitely check this place out the next time you are looking to grab a drink in Bay View. It is easily one of the best bars in the neighborhood.

    One of Milwaukee's best bars. Great atmosphere, good beer selection, great DJs. It's all you can ask for in a bar.

    Best bar and bartenders in Bay View. This is as good as it gets for a chill, welcoming scene.

    The front bar area is definitely dimly lit (except for the red lights, random chandeliers, and pulsating hearts on the bar).

    We stopped in on a whim after dinner out in the deer district. Driving home when I saw the holiday…read moreinflatables and I thought if I can find a parking spot, we are going in. I had heard about the Tin Widow's holiday pop up being one of the best area, the hype was not wrong. From the entrance to the ceiling and walks, this place is the definition of deck the halls. Unless you get here right when they open it early in the holiday season, I would expect a crowd. The drink menu is so fun with holiday themed drinks served in matching glassware. You can even purchase the glass/mug for an additional fee. A lot of the cocktails looked to be batched cocktails which help with the bartender's efficiency. Highly recommend making this place a holiday stop. I'm also curious to stop in after the holidays to experience it without all the holiday decor.

    Stopped in for their Miracle on 2nd St holiday pop-up. We only had to wait about 5-10min for a…read moretable, but it does get busy fast, especially on weekends. They had several seasonal cocktails in special festive cups, which you could also buy to take home. I got the Cheery Cherry Chocosaurus, which was good, but pricey for what it was. Almost all the seasonal drinks were $15 each and didn't seem too big. The venue itself is medium sized, but feels crammed quickly. There's more people let in at a time than there is seating, so you have to move fast to get a seat. I'll likely come back during the summer to try something else.
