On the town: Are you screaming for a bachelorette party?
Water Street bars like McGillicuddy's and Trinity, dance clubs like Decibel or Bootleggers and of course the token piano bar Lucille's are constantly welcoming hordes of ladies out to celebrate fleeting moments of freedom. That's essentially what a bachelorette party is. Just like the comparable bachelor party, bachelorette parties represent one final fling and a chance to do anything and everything the bride desires.

City takes measures to alleviate "problem bars"
From the larger venues on Water Street to the tiny spots on residential corners, bars and taverns are an integral -- some might even go as far as to say indispensable -- part of Milwaukee's cultural identity. But, the picture is not always positive. At different times and in different neighborhoods, establishments can become what the city refers to as "problem taverns." The city has a brochure telling residents how to deal with them.
