The Essence of Bronzeville

 

More than fifty years ago, the vibrant Bronzeville neighborhood was the heart of the live entertainment, dining and social scene for Milwaukee’s movers and shakers. Today, the historical district is re-emerging as an exciting new dining, nightlife and entertainment destination and Garfield's 502 embodies that remarkable revival.

With its welcoming staff, friendly customers and inviting interior, a space once occupied by legendary blues bar Boobie’s Place has quickly become a vital anchor for a re-energized neighborhood. Whether it’s live jazz or blues, classic soul on the juke box, karaoke singing with a Temptations chart-topper or step dancing with a DJ, Garfield’s 502 has something special on tap for you. And with our delicious New Orleans-style menu that boasts such mouth-watering favorites as seafood gumbo, our home cooking will keep you coming back for more.

Garfield’s 502 takes enormous pride in Milwaukee's home-grown talent and is delighted to feature live music from local musicians every Friday night. What else is cooking? Stop by and you’ll find karaoke featuring The Temptations, The Isley Brothers and other favorites on Mondays, free stepping dance lessons on Tuesdays and DJs spinning the best in R & B on Thursdays and Sundays. And on the first Saturday of every month, our “Blues Brunch Live” boasts Phil Anderson’s "Six hours of pure unadulterated blues.”

Our newly renovated building can comfortably accommodate 150 people and boasts a chic arrangement of high- and low-topped tables, a hardwood stage and dance floor and a spacious L-shaped redwood bar. On any given day, you're likely to mingle, sing or even dance with executives, politicians, administrators, lawyers, supervisors and other leaders of the community. Whether you’re a long-time resident, new in town or just passing through, Garfield’s 502 is now the choice for enjoying the best Milwaukee has to offer: great food, terrific music and excellent company in the dynamic new heart of Bronzeville.
