The Best Place at Pabst was so easy to work with, affordable, flexible drink packages, lots of fun amenities, natural atmosphere and decor means you don’t need to do much decorating of your own, I could go on and on. Our guests could not stop raving about how unique, intimate and lovely the space was. We used the Blue Ribbon Hall which included a balcony space which we used to give our guests the opportunity to play classic WI card games; Euchre, Sheepshead, cribbage etc… It was a great, separate space to hang out but still be a part of the celebration and watch the dancing. The staff even accommodated our last minute request to play the Bucks playoff game on the projector during dinner! Our wedding included lots of guests from out of town and out of state and we really wanted a venue that embodied Milwaukee culture. This. Was. IT.

Milwaukee, WI
  • Up to 225 guests

  • Indoor & outdoor

The University Club of Milwaukee and Tripoli Country Club merged in 2016. Today, there simply is no other club in the region that offers the same heritage, legacy of excellence, and breadth of experiences as The University Club of Milwaukee. Founded in 1898 by a group of 19 college alumni, The University Club's founding mission was to offer members a distinctive opportunity to network, share ideas, grow relationships, and engage in the issues of the day. This was a time of great hope and promise, and of progress and innovation. In 1921, entrepreneurial members of the Tripoli Temple in Milwaukee purchased land at what is now Good Hope Road and 43rd Street in Milwaukee and began a country club for the benefit of its members. Tripoli Country Club and its championship-caliber golf course attracted fine golfers, also serving as an oasis for members and their families. Now united by a common commitment to excellence, engagement, and a desire to positively impact the lives of our members.
