Many bars also sell snacks [wiki-bar]. # When and how Hours, prices and ways to pay differ from place to place. Each listed place's page gives the hours, the phone number and the details its sources state. # How a place gets on this list A place is listed when it is locally owned today and would make less sense anywhere else, under the [inclusion rule](/about/inclusion-rule); each page cites at least two sources, and the editor and the [Neighborhood Mayors](/mayors) check new places and corrections [editorial-policy]. # Listed places 3 places listed. ## [Bay View](https://littlemilwaukee.com/neighborhoods/bay-view) - [At Random](https://littlemilwaukee.com/places/taverns-and-bars/at-random): At Random at 2501 S Delaware Av in Milwaukee, in Milwaukee County. ## [Lower East Side](https://littlemilwaukee.com/neighborhoods/lower-east-side) - [Wolski's Tavern](https://littlemilwaukee.com/places/taverns-and-bars/wolskis-tavern): Wolski's Tavern at 1836 N Pulaski St in Milwaukee, a locally owned place in Milwaukee County. ## [Murray Hill](https://littlemilwaukee.com/neighborhoods/murray-hill) - [Vier North](https://littlemilwaukee.com/places/taverns-and-bars/vier-north): Vier North at 1832 E North Av in Milwaukee, in Milwaukee County. # On record Little Milwaukee builds each record here from public data, such as City of Milwaukee licenses, and files it under this category. A record is not a listing: a place is listed only when it passes the inclusion rule and has its own page. 518 records on file.
