Craft

"Came here after a Bucks game. First time ever trying any of the venues at the Trade Hotel. Sat down at the bar and no one waited on us for 15-20 min. Bartenders seemed disinterested. They were just laughing, joking and messing around with their friends that were sitting there. I had to physically tell them that I wanted to order a drink. Then I made several beer selections many of which they did not have. Gave me a rotating tap list and I chose something and low and behold they didn't have that either. Made no effort to help me feel comfortable and find something I like. We proceeded to leave and the pretty much didn't bat an eye or say anything. Then she left for another 10-15 min. For as pricey as this place is I would expect much better service. Do not recommend!!"

"New restaurant in the first floor of The Trade hotel. Simple lunch menu: burgers and salads. They call their burger a Smashburger. The patties are smashed thin and offered with a host of toppings. Very tasty."

"Good was amazing and the atmosphere was great. The customer service was rude . I was rushed to pay before I even done eating. Then the waitress tells me no rush. Like really can finish my food before you rush me out. I always leave a tip that was just very rude. Only wanted a quick lunch. Normally I make my own food. It’s was a wonderful sandwich ruined by the waiters attitude. Hope you all hire better."

"If you’re looking for a place to eat and/or get drinks before an event at The Fiserv, definitely check out Craft - it’s RIGHT across the street from the venue. The restaurant is very clean and I absolutely loved the overall vibe. The service from both the hostess and the waitress that I had was outstanding. I loved their House Moscato, it was the perfect amount of sweet, and also quite refreshing."

"Craft is the first floor bar/restaurant in the new Trade Hotel in downtown Milwaukee. It's a beautiful space in the Deer District, offering incredible food and a large selection of beer, wine, and cocktails. First and foremost, our server Shahira was AMAZING! She was very attentive, constantly checking in with us to make sure we had everything we wanted. Our drinks and food came out quickly and always with a smile. We started with the giant pretzel and meat and cheese board. Delicious and perfect for sharing with our table of 6. I had the Shaved Brussel Sprout and Kale salad as my entree, and it was hands down the best salad I've ever had in a restaurant. The large pieces of crispy prosciutto were very flavorful and a welcome (not to mention long overdue) change to the typical croutons. These and the generous sized shaved cheeses were the perfect compliment to the craisins and vinaigrette dressing, creating a refreshing salty-sweet balance. The portion was sizeable and could have easily been shared (although I took my leftovers home and enjoyed them the next day without the greens being soggy at all). Craft is absolutely a winning experience and perfect for date night or groups. Worth going back again and again."
