T. G. I. Friday's Front Row
Located right in Miller Park, Front Row Friday's is one of the most fun ways to experience Miller Park. The restaurant opens at 11:00 AM daily and is open all year round. You'll get an extensive view of the park's left field from the restaurant. Seasonal outdoor seating is available as well as a private suite for both game day and non-game day events. You'll pay a premium price to enjoy Friday's during a Brewers game, but you can enjoy the park and the food any other day of the week for regular Friday's prices.

Hours: Mon-Fri Lunch 11AM-2PM, Mon-Thur Dinner 4:30-9PM, Fri Dinner 4-10PM, Sat Dinner 4:30-9PM, Closed Sunday
Kegel's is not quite as famous as some of Milwaukee's downtown German restaurants, such as Mader's. However, it boosts that it is the most authentic German restaurant and beer hall in the city, and the food rivals, if not, tops that of its competitors. Dinner entrees range from $16-$32 and include soup, salad, choice of potato (you can't go wrong with the spaetzel or dumpling), rolls, and butter.

This is not an atmospheric dining experience, but the food is consistently good and prepared very quickly. Call ahead and pick it up to take home with you after a Brewers game. Two people can split an appetizer, large fried rice, and small entrée for about $20 and have enough left over for at least one more meal.

I've never been to the Miller Park area but this is a very interesting hub. Thanks for sharing the information about the area restaurants.

Thanks so much, web923! That means a lot to me.
Bill Blackburn from Twentynine Palms, California on January 16, 2013:
This Hub was extremely well done! The planning that you put into this really shows. Laid out well, organized and well written, it's interesting and useful... not to mention awesome!
Rose Clearfield (author) from Milwaukee, Wisconsin on January 16, 2013:
I have considered Examiner, but honestly when I've looked into it in the past, I've found the site to be incredibly confusing. It simply wasn't worth the effort. I know people who have done well with it, though.
craftdrawer on January 16, 2013:
Since I live in the area these are a lot of nice suggestions. I will have to be sure to check the out! Great information. Have you ever thought about writing for Examiner in the Milwaukee area? They let you put affiliate links in your articles and once you get the hang of what to write you can do pretty well (it takes time to get subscribers and figure out what articles will do better) . If you are not writing for them and decide to sign up let me know so I can refer you http://exm.nr/Q9rIrX

Thanks, Cyndi! There is so much to do in Milwaukee.
Cynthia Calhoun from Western NC on December 20, 2012:
What a nice, handy guide to have for the Milwaukee area. I haven't been to Milwaukee, but it looks pretty cool with the variety of activities you have shared in this hub and others like it. Voted and shared!

Thanks, Simone!

If you're ever in Milwaukee, you'll have to try to catch a game there. It's a beautiful stadium, and there are lots of things to do right near it. Enjoy your 4th of July festivities!
Deborah from Las Vegas on July 04, 2012:
I didn't know about Miller Park. Right now I'm in Las Vegas and the minors team for Toronto is down the road. Great stadium and very good games. Tonight is fire works and a game. Thanks for the great hub Random.
Rose Clearfield (author) from Milwaukee, Wisconsin on July 04, 2012:
Thanks so much, Mindy!
Julie, nice! I'm interested to see how this does, too. I'll let you know. I've been considering writing other articles directly related to Miller Park, such as nearby hotels, bars, and attractions.
Blurter of Indiscretions from Clinton CT on July 04, 2012:
I did something like this for my hometown. I'm interested to see how your hub performs, (mine too). If it does well, I was thinking of doing more for surrounding towns.
Mindy Bench from Oregon on July 04, 2012:
lots of great info here, photos and maps very useful!
Rose Clearfield (author) from Milwaukee, Wisconsin on July 03, 2012:
Thanks, ktrapp! This is just a small selection of what is available around the park. There are so many great options. I think that the large parking areas lend themselves to the tailgating. I didn't know that about bringing in food and drinks. That's awesome. You're right about not worrying about rain outs and delays. It can still get pretty chilly in there, but the game will keep going. You'll have to let me know if you give any of these places a try.
Kristin Trapp from Illinois on July 03, 2012:
This is really useful information. I didn't realize there were so many good restaurant options in the area. Not to mention people seem to have really elaborate tailgating going on there. Two things I love about Miller Park are (1) You can bring in your own food and drinks (sealed up) if you want and (2) You never have to worry about rain outs or delays. It's a great ball field and apparently there are some really good restaurants in the area that I will have to try out.
