They have good bands, good music and a nice atmosphere. The couple of times I've been there there has been a decent sized crowd and live music that was excellent. The patio is big and comfortable and people are able to smoke there since it's outside. The bar staff is not particularly nice or friendly, and it can be be difficult to get drinks given the crowd at the bar and lack of table service, but this is still one of the better bars in Waukesha right now.

Easily one of, if not the best, bars in Waukesha. Currently the only propper live music venue downtown, it has a stage and sound that supports bands and DJs alike. The patio effectively doubles the size of The Social Club with seating, grassy area, and rear entrance. Smokers can take there drink with them to catch a jones, in what is basically an outdoor bar. Definately my favorite weekend spot in Waukesha.
Always great music coming out the door, often a nice sized crowd when I walk by and very cool and hip windows. We avoided going in, in past years as it was always very smoking and just walking by there was always cigarette smoke pouring out the door.
But since I enjoy the music I'll have to go in now and try the bar food since the smoking is no longer a problem.


One of my favorite Waukesha bars! I had gone to the Social Club in the past and was hesitant to go back before it became Bosco's. The drinks had always expensive and it was always dead inside. Now, we go to Bosco's all the time- I have hosted birthday parties there as well as a family get together. They have always been accommodating to my needs and friendly. It is a great place to watch the Packer's play- especially love the food at half time and nothing beats sitting outside on the patio on a nice summer day watching the Brewers play! I love the live music and there are always great drink specials. I recommend this bar to everyone I know!
