  • Episode #19 Old Milwaukee Club - Ideal Corners
    Jun 20 2021

    Jeffrey Feltmann, owner/operator of the Old Milwaukee Club in Ideal Corners is in studio to visit about this historic Lakes Area Club. How did this bar get its name anyway?  We're nowhere near Milwaukee!  And are you a member of the Whimpie club?  Since 1996 Jeffrey has kept the Old Milwaukee Club pretty much as original as possible.  There's a full menu and pizzas to order with a very unique inside atmosphere.  The Old Milwaukee Club has been in existence in one form or another since 1928 so you know from moment you step inside that it's going to be special!  If you've never been to the Old Milwaukee Club, Jeff says that within an hour you'll be talking with everyone else about everything. That's just the kind of relaxed bar that it is.  A great episode and a great story.  Give it a listen.
