Swingin' Door Exchange
Born in 1973 in what had formerly been Bubin's Saloon and the Grain Exchange Tavern (after it had been a Western Union telegraph office), the Swingin' Door Exchange has become the place for a hearty lunch and a cold one. It's also the perfect place for a drink with co-workers and friends before heading home after a long day at work.
OnMilwaukee readers must agree, because they selected it as their favorite bar in a Milwaukee restaurant.
With an old world vibe and a bit of a corner tap feel, Swingin' Door is a Downtown gem.
OnMilwaukee editors' pick: Goodkind
Bay View's Goodkind's "modern take on European farmhouse fare" makes for some of the tastiest dining in town, and we love that you can get a great cocktail or craft beer to go along with it, too.
Runners-up:
2. The Vanguard
