I stopped here to celebrate quitting my job because I just gave my two weeks notice and it was the…read moreclosest bar to me. It's a neighborhood dive bar with one regular at the time so it was empty but it was noonish. It's a small bar with 4 domestic taps, flat screen, side tables and game room in back. Finally a 2nd regular walked in to talk to and he quit his job last week so we had a conversation. Overall it seems like a friendly neighborhood bar but with the lack patrons it's hard to tell.

I can't really give a dive bar more than three stars just because..... it's a five on the dive bar…read morescale. It is what you would expect a bunch off goofy friendly regulars. Normal tap beers and shots. If you are hungry they have chips.... lol. Staff is nice and friendly too. You will likely get asked to play bar dice which is welcoming. Smaller bar with seating for probably 12 at the bar with some small tables scattered through the back. If you are doing a dive bar crawl stop in and have a beer.

This is a true Wisconsin drive bar. It was packed on a Saturday. There was one bartender for the…read morewhole bar, about 3 slot machines and a pull tab machine. Their cocktails are $10 but definitely a joint you grab a beer. There was a friendly and wide range of bar goers. At one point the whole bar sung happy birthday to someone so I'd say this is a nice Midwest bar to grab a drink.

Sadly, no bumper stickers here. The Stone does have a pretty great beer list, great bartenders, darts and a really cool jukebox. Popcorn with all the delicious flavors of popcorn shaker thingies. I think that they're dog friendly too.

True Score: 5 Star Dive Bar…read more Best Decor in Milwaukee This was my favorite bar in Milwaukee. That's saying a lot in this city because old school character dive bars are abundant. You walk into Jamo's and you're immediately and entirely in Jamo's world, which is intimate and unpretentious and dimly lit and anachronistic. It's stuck out of time (it could be 1951 or 1983 or 2002, though the clocks on the wall will tell you it's always after 5) and place (a block from Brady Street, but nestled snugly into its neighborhood, disdainful of the nearby buzz), with its own people and practices, a distinct sense and style. Jamo's is an old corner tavern, the quintessential dive bar. It's the definition of a hidden gem. There are no gimmicks here - besides being cash-only, Jamo's also sells cigarettes, and a young dude comes in and buys a pack at one point - and no real aspirations to be anything more than a simple, straightforward, old-school neighborhood spot with good drinks and good conversation. And it is that. By far the best hidden gem in Milwaukee. A must stop if your visiting. Thanks

I've known Jamo's for years and spent time there in my younger and dirtier days. I'm older and…read morecleaner now, but still enjoy an occasional buzz out on the town. Jamo's is the kind of place to lose yourself in. Steal a surreal moment and disappear into the looking glass of Jamo's. Patrons are friendly, the owner is a Milwaukee icon, and sometimes good looking people show up willing to converse. On the other side of the coin, Jamo's is a neighborhood bar with a heart, taking care of its regulars. I liked observing that after living with the Seattle freeze here in the Pacific Northwest. The bartender can be greedy if you're not a regular, so be careful with your cash, but that vigilance is part of getting that buzz on. Jamo's is Milwaukee noir. Cherish it.

Just after 8pm on a Friday night we got parking right at the front door which I thought was rock star lucky until we went in, completely empty except for the bar tender which I thought was weird. We sat down and ordered a couple drinks while talking and a big heavy set guy walks in and behind the bar to talk to the bar tender and finally sat down across from us. While having drinks and talking the douchebag had a disturbing laser stare on us non stop and after repeated looking at him, he continued non stop staring at us so we had to leave. I don't know what his problem was but making strangers feel uncomfortable was very natural to him and he was a pro at it. I'm going to spend some time in the area so I was looking regular place to go to but this will not be that place and we will not return again.

I was in the area today so I stopped by and the lack vehicles in the parking lot led me to believe that it was closed but an open sign was on. The place is nothing fancy and empty on a day with a lot of festivals going on. Brian was the only person in the place except for the bar tender so it was empty. As a new person I must say that I talked to Brian and the bar tender for an hour and a half so the place was welcoming and not clicky like some bars. The drinks are reasonable with a tall rail cocktail at $4 which was nice.
