Brothers Bar & Grill, Milwaukee, Wisconsin Restaurant Details

Food:

An extensive dress code is no where to be found online. The only way to see if you don't follow it is to get kicked out. The music is also way too loud on Thursdays.

Food:

I've always liked this place. Three levels. Good atmosphere. Drink prices aren't terrible. And their wings are great! Get there early though!

Food:

DO NOT GO HERE UNLESS YOU ARE A PREPPY WHITE(no offense) COLLEGE KID. Racist bouncers and owners will prevent anyone from going in for bogus reasons. I was told to tuck my 8mm 24in(not very big at all) figaro style chain in my shirt for whatever reason, but I had no problem with this and complied.

Now here's the kicker: The bouncer told me to pull my jeans up, but when I showed him that the jeans were at my waist line and physically but respectfully showed him that the crotch of the jeans were hugging my nuts he just told me I had to leave and I could not come back.

I am fairly slim(5'8" 170lbs) and I was wearing 34W Rocawear Jeans. If anyone has ever worn that brand of jeans they would know that the jeans are very slim-fitting. The only thing that gave the jeans an appearance of being slightly baggy was the fact that they were a couple inches longer than my legs. I guess I better come back with high-waters next time because this is the 4th time I've been denied.

If you think you will get in with what you are wearing, think about your friends. The bouncers have no problem telling one person out of a group to leave. They only have a problem with your skin color and how nice you are dressed. I was accidentally let in to the bar one time for about 30 seconds before an employee grabbed me and told me to leave immediately. I am a very respectful person, but I think this place has horrible management and needs to be shut down for discrimination because their "Dress*** Code" is out of line

Food:

I have never had a bad experience at Brothers. I go during happy hour during the week which is from 3-8! All tap beers are just $2, you can't beat that price anywhere. The staff is friendly and fairly knowledgeable. The food is pretty tasty and great price; overall a great place, don't listen to the old review.

In 2011 Milwaukee was deemed America's most segregated and racist metropolitan city and places like Brother's is the reason why. Why do we all get dressed up and go out on the weekends...to have fun just like everyone else of every type of demographic. However Brother's bar and grill has made it clear that certain minorities, especially African Americans are not welcomed. A group of my friends attempted to patronize Brother's Bar and Grill 5/12/13 however was turned away because we "looked like we may start a fight and that my earrings were too big" How earrings and fighting correlate I have no idea, and even when I attempted to take them out I was still told that I was not allowed allowed in the bar because I made the choice to put them on in the first place. Let me be clear, I am an educated person, soft spoken, and gave no indication whatsoever that I would be inappropriate in any type of manner. When stating to the manager that this could be considered discrimination (especially when I could clearly see women of other races in the bar with large earrings)...the response was "call it what you want but you are still not getting in." It is sad that still in 2013, that there is no cross cultural acceptance here. Very disappointed in this establishment.
