SkipperBud's Milwaukee

Had arguably the best fish fry and shrimp boil ever. Super light, non-greasy breading on the former. Fresh, most and delish spices on the latter.

Amazing atmosphere, waitstaff, and food! We go there in the summer and in the winter now. For the last two years Bud's opens up as a supper club during the winter, and it's really good! Space is limited for seating and it's reservations only during the winter time, but the food and experience are worth getting on the waiting list! You won't be disappointed...

Came here during a bout tour, docking is extremely limited!

This is a fun place to go but hard to find You're going to need navigation! It's going to look like you're going inside a industrial complex

Left us SOL! Rented a pontoon for afternoon of September 28th for a bachelorette party. Received a phone call from then in the morning that the water was pretty choppy and they didn’t know if the conditions would Be good to go out. The discussion ended that we would come down and decide later in the day if we would take the pontoon out. We went down to the port and checked conditions, it was bright and sunny and there were 3-4 pontoon boats out in the port. Choppy but not terrible. We got to skipper buds just before 1:30pm, a little bit later than and found that the rental office was locked and no one in sight. Talked to one of the mechanics and he was barely helpful enough to confirm that the rental office was shut. We received no phone calls of cancellation or that they were closing up shop early. Very disappointed at the lack of communication and customer service. We rented here once before and had a great time, this time wasn’t the case. Pictures attached of weather conditions for that day.
