About This Venue
McBob's Pub & Grill is a beloved Milwaukee landmark on North Avenue offering authentic Irish and American comfort food in a warm, welcoming neighborhood gathering space.
For nearly 40 years, McBob's has earned its reputation as a must-visit destination for scratch-made specialties like their famous sous vide corned beef and oversized foot-long tacos. The menu balances Celtic and American cuisine with crowd favorites including char-grilled burgers, veggie-loaded salads, and a gluten-free fish fry featuring catfish, grouper, perch, and walleye. The atmosphere strikes that perfect balance between cozy Irish pub charm and relaxed neighborhood bar, complete with a hidden patio that makes you forget you're in the city.
Beyond the excellent food and craft cocktails on tap, McBob's offers an extended brunch menu Thursday through Sunday (with bottomless mimosas, bloody marys, and Irish coffees), traditional Wisconsin fish fry every Friday, and now provides corporate catering and lunch delivery services. Whether you're a longtime regular or visiting for the first time, McBob's positions itself as more than just a restaurant—it's a gathering place where the community comes to feel at home with quality ingredients, genuine hospitality, and that distinctive Milwaukee pub vibe.
