It may be Old World Third Street, but the Downtown nightlife and drinking destination is more of a hybrid of Milwaukee's past and the present, old and young happily intertwined. Here's a quick rundown of all things old and new Old World Third Street has to offer.
Milwaukee has a long, rich and proud drag history, from the 1920s "pansy shows" at the St. Charles Hotel to today's D.I.X. DollHaus. It wasn't until "RuPaul's Drag Race" season 7, however, that a Milwaukee performer went global.
Sure, we all have our favorite romantic places, but if you're looking to show your sweetheart something different and new, perhaps one of these establishments might appeal.
Milwaukee classic Giovanni's - the nostalgic favorite of many East Siders - will reopen its doors to the public at 1033 N Old World 3rd St. this coming Monday, Oct. 26.
Tutto Restaurant, 1033 N. Old World 3rd St., will soon reopen as Giovanni's Restaurant and second-floor night club, Notte Night Lounge, will house the Comedy Cafe, currently on Brady Street. The changes will take place this summer.
The new owners of the Comedy Cafe say that the 22 year-old staple on the west end of Brady Street will close on June 20 for a face lift. It will reopen in mid-July.
