The Brady Street area is known second only to Water Street by out-of-towners looking to experience true Milwaukee. To many locals, however, Brady Street is where you can find what the heart of the city is all about.

There are the traditions that have become ingrained over time, such as the Wolski's bumper stickers at closing time, and the everyman elegance of the Hi-Hat Lounge. One of the best traditions, however, is when the World Cup is being played.

The best place in Milwaukee to celebrate the Beautiful Game is at Nomad World Pub, 1401 E. Brady St., our readers' choice for best Brady Street area bar, 2012.
