One of Milwaukee's most popular sports bars, Kelly's has two enormous rooms to house its loyal patrons. What's more amazing than the hordes themselves is how the owner seems to know many of the names and faces among them; community is key here. The front section is home to a large bar, while the back handles all the dance action, complete with smoke-and-light-enhanced floor shows and weekend DJs. Between the frequent local media visits, endless marketing promotions and sponsored sports leagues, there's always something going on here. The food is great and attracts a large lunch crowd. But what sets this establishment apart from the rest is the management's strong commitment to its clientele. Though popular with a truly diverse crowd, Kelly's is really a giant neighborhood bar with a heart to match -- and some funky baseball bat handles on the doorways.

Where's The Beef?
By dmge2 on 04/14/2005
Went there to order their famous 4 lb. burger, actually three of them with family from out of town. After taking the orders the waitress returned and stated that the cooks would not be making 4 Lb burgers today because they ran out of meat the day before. Ridiculous. andI will never stop at this place again.

?; to beef or NOT to beef?

kellys bleachers, home of the famous 4lb BURGER! apparently all signs point to FALSE!!! after arriving to this dismal p*sshole near the brewer stadium and after placing not 1 but 3 orders for the 4lb burger, the waitress(NONE of which could be called "bangle'able" not even ouR cousin would touch em!) NOT that i was lookin BEING that i am HAPPILY married n thats EXACTLY how I want to be, it was jus THAT obvious!, came back and kindly informed us, "we're out of beef, no burgers today", thats right NOT even an apology or a word of regret, when we explained we were out of towners and SOLEY came for the burger we were met wit a FRIGHTENLY blissfuLL blank stare, not to mention she had poor taste in fashion! imagine for a moment our position, being at a restaurant famous for BUT one staple, its 4lb burger and BEING denied the opportunity to partake of this potential monster!! i tell you the outrage was UNSPEAKABLE, but w/o so much as a hint of our OFFENDED nature we quietly but CONVINCELY made our exit! we drew the line at the sign advertising wild mexican wednesday! are we to suppose it would be the promise of "crazy" night filled wit "GRINGO's" makin moves i.e. playin the part of "real" mexicans as in makin moves like a bunch of meXican's wit bandandes! viva la revolucion! at the very best kelly's bleachers has SUCESSFULLY crushed this old man's quest for burger like no other, and as previously stated there is not even a chance for our needy cousin to "hook" up wit a certified HOT slimey, he has a better chance at a frat boy sausage fest! in the end kelly's bleachers offers YOU the chance to eat a 4lb burger and if you do clean your plate, dinner is on them, but when one attempts the MIGHt feat he is told its not possible so their out of meat..CONSPIRACY or not...YOU tell me.. good day, cheerio! p.s. the walls need paintin, n the drapes do NOT match the curtains IF you know wud i mean ;) p.s. parkin is a hellhole! involve meXican's on wednesdays? fuggetboutit!!! oNe
