Sabbatic in Milwaukee

Good atmosphere for gothic and punch Cutler also welcoming to everyone else

I only spent maybe 20 minutes in here but the vibe was SO cool, I’ve been wanting to go back ever since! Definitely one of the most unique and fun bars I’ve been to in the city

Love this place! It’s owned by a couple, they’re friendly and have great drinks!

Played a great show here!

Fun punk atmosphere and reasonably priced drinks. Always something cool going on!

Place is cool. I dont feel to welcome.

Dirty punk bar greatness.

Good venue for beer and punk rock music

Great bartender and good vibe.

Great happy hour and local bar. Very friendly staff, awesome music and videos playing (classics).

Great bar with great staff! Rachel & Rob being favorite tenders. Punk rock lives here! The 7PM $hit$how is a must for bargain $1 drinks!

Love this place, I havent been here in almost a decade but it hasnt changed 🤘

I really liked this bar. I felt super comfortable here and I wish I could have stayed here. Alas, there are no punk or metalhead bars up north where I live. I really enjoyed my time here. Met some interesting and nice people. Will definitely revisit the next time I am in town.

Sabbatic is so grunge and perfectly punk! Excellent drinks, cult classic movies and the best vibe 🤘

Home of the best and shortest Happy Hour in Milwaukee... daily from 7:-7:15pm. Almost everything is $1.

Cool bar there have music bingo for a chance to win 15 dollar bar tab. They play about 5 to 6 games

Had a great time here having drinks and making friends after playing Club Garibaldis the staff was friendly the door guy was great hope to definitely visit again soon

Pretty cool place. From 7-7:15 almost everything is a $1!

Friendly bar staff & patrons, great prices, awesome decor. It might not be your place if you dislike rock, but its still worth stopping in for a drink or two.

Real nice punk rock bar. Staff is very friendly.

Inviting. Different atmosphere. Two TV with two different movies going. Friendly. Good service. Good deals.

My favorite time to come here is on Saturday afternoons when Rob and Rachel are behind the bar - great people! This is a fun, unique bar and a Milwaukee classic.

Always a good time with friendly folks and bartenders.

Punk bar with a strong industrial and new wave playlists and DJs meet strong drinks in a neighborhood atmosphere.

The moment we entered this bar a patron at the bar yelled at us to put our masks on. He was not wearing his mask and neither was anyone else at the bar. The bartender was extremely rude as well. We were excited to give this bar a try as we like supporting small bars but we will never go back and I recommend you save your time as well.

We used to love this bar, but unfortunately the smell has driven us away after years of fun. We were there last week and there was an absolutely horrific scent of sewage wafting throughout the entire bar. I understand the bar is under new ownership, but the bathrooms are in complete disrepair. I love dive bars, but I just cannot stomach a drink while being blasted in the nasal cavities with someones liquified lunch. If you decide to come here, please be prepared for the fragrance of hot sh*t at high noon.

Went here for the first time last weekend. I love supporting local bars that support live music and was looking forward to going back but the bartender was a jerk to everyone in our group. None of us will return.

Nothing compares! This is by far the coolest bar in Milwaukee . The clientele cuts across all demographics, and everyone is totally chill.Extra bonus if you happen to be onsite at 7pm.Just do it, youll see what I mean. and youll love it!!!

My sons band plays regularly at this punk rock club...I love the artwork and the raw vibe of the place! The bartenders are professionals and pour drinks quickly and the prices are realistic!

Friendly bartenders, nice open space and the beers werent crazy expensive. Wasnt able to check out any live music but would visit again.

Its a wonder full place good music good beer I really recommended to anyone

Bar tenders are awesome and have a fantastic service thanks Rachel and Rob you guys were awesome, definitely the best biker/ punk rock bar Ive been to, I think Ill stick around this place

Bartenders are always present and active to your needs. Music is great. Atmosphere is welcoming no matter where you come from.

Nice atmosphere, friendly staff and great beer specials. We ended up there as an alternative, but we will definitely be back. It was a happy accident that will spawn regular returns.

They do actually live up to their edgy name. Its a pool bar with some coarse local folk. It looks like the place that accepts folk who become regulars, but there is a slightly bristly outside.

A bartender friend of mine loves this place. Every time I go out with him, this is usually our first stop. Nice dive bar with good music and a decent pool table. They also have live music sometimes. Lastly, its in the heart of Walkers Point, so theres plenty of places you can walk to from there.This is definitely a place to go drink with some friends and shoot the breeze!

Honestly one of the best bars in Milwaukee. The bartenders also train people how to be in public/go to bars, which I thought was awesome

Great atmosphere for someone who likes punk/metal/alternative music. Had a great time here.

Staff is good but the place kinda isnt . It stunk, like clean your bathrooms kinda stink. Then again the nasty customers dont help that

The music here is phenomenal whether it’s live, being played by a DJ or just a bartender’s playlist. Great bartenders. Great drinks. Great experience.

My band, The Periodicals, played our first ever Milwaukee show here. The bartenders and the patrons were phenomenal.

Worst experience ever at a bar. I just stopped by for my first visit and town, and this was not a good experience. The drinks were fine, but the guy at the bar was not friendly at all. He seemed bothered by my friend group and I being there once we walked in and couldn’t even look at me when I asked about speacials. I asked about closing my tab and he refused to until he helped everyone else there. We just walked out and he said, “Thanks guys. Please don’t come again.” Please don’t even bother going here.

Is this place a mess? Absolutely. Is my mother be disappointed I drink here? Oh god yes. Is this the best, rockinest bar in Milwaukee? You bet your ass.

A place where anyone can go for a drink and have a damn good time. Flavorful groups of people, good drink selection, and a pool table.

Our bartender Nora made us felt welcome and kept us informed of the happy hour specials, and the 99 cent, 15 minute shot special. Cozy, fun atmosphere, and would recommend this to others that would enjoy a cocktail while still being able to chat. Thanks for a good experience Nora.

Cheap Guinness and lovely beer on tap. Bar tenders are magnificent and the vibe is awesome. Real people, no BS.

I love this place so much and come here a lot. It has great vibes, the bartenders are all so awesome. It brings in a great crowd when shows play, theres no seats at the bar and everywhere is packed. Its also super laid back.. Makes you feel like you belong there!!!

If you come here look for Rachel. She is the sweetest most accommodating bartender that will not only tell you about the deals at her bar, but tell you about great deals happening in the south side of Milwaukee. Would highly recommend if youre visiting 👍🏻

They didnt think my ID is legit so didnt let me order a drink even after the bouncer said it was good. I am from Utah and just because they had never seen a Utah ID they didnt let me get a drink - extremely annoying and not professional at all!! I am 25 and obviously over the minimum drinking age.

Bad expedience ! Chick had the nerve to tell me "next time leave a tip". I said "I left the tip with the man that served me not the one who checked me out". She didnt do anything but check me out. The guy is the one who deserved the tip for serving me. Its a shame that rude people are working a nice bar.
