like you stepped into the 60's

That's actually a good thing. Very cute space. Very retro. Good jukebox. Nice people. Enjoy!

I was really hoping....

I was really hoping that the online reviews of "This Is It" were true...older men! Unfortunately, the night I went in, the clientel were all in their 20's. Being in your 20's is wonderful! Unfortunately, I'm in my 40's and could not get a drink from the 20-something bartender. He was too busy talking with all of his friends...and texting.

OK Place

I visited Milwaukee from Atlanta. I wish we had cruise bars here. Too old for the Dance Clubs. The bartender was really friendly and the drinks were nice. I will go back when I visit Milwaukee.

Could use an update

Old fashioned neighborhood bar, right downtown Milwaukee. I've tried it a couple of times for a drink after dinner at one of the great restaurants in the area. My last visit found a 'bartender' that didn't know anything about making a drink. Didn't know what Jameson was, and just didn't really have a customer service attitude. I get the hunch the regulars like the place and maybe if you become a regular here you'd love it, but for someone from out of town looking for a welcoming smile and drink, this is not the place.
