Not only does this bar serve up delicious food, it's also one of the oldest buildings on Old World Third Street.

This old building began as a furniture store in 1854. The humble shop, once called Pioneer Furniture Store, was built by German immigrants, just like many of the businesses on Old World Third Street. Buck Bradley's has gone through many renovations and has housed everything from shoe stores to fragrance shops. It ultimately became Buck Bradley's in 1992 and was named after the original owner's great-great-grandson.
As for Buck Bradley's bar, it's the largest and longest bar in Wisconsin! It took multiple pieces that were designed especially for Buck's and were brought in from three states to make this beautiful granite bar top.

The Paget family, who have since purchased the building, worked hard to recreate an old 1890s pub and eatery. With iron chandeliers and iconic cream city brick, we think they did a great job.

Besides the awesome building, Buck's burgers are what truly make Milwaukeeans coming back for more. These half-pound burgers are absolutely addicting.
