Milwaukee’s Polish bar and polka tradition
Polka
Open Jam
Every Wednesday • 6:00 PM
Come and jam at Kochanski's, a Milwaukee Polish bar and beer hall in Burnham Park. Musicians of all skill levels are welcome, from newcomers to seasoned players. In the cooler months the jam stays indoors, and when the weather turns, it spills out into the beer garden.
A Wednesday tradition
Bring your instrument.
Bring your friends.
Wednesday nights feature Polish beer specials and $2 shots of Krupnik (Polish Honey Liqueur), with room for both new and seasoned players to join the music.
The room also welcomes original music across polka, rockabilly, blues, surf, and related live acts.
One beer garden. So many possibilities.
From laid-back afternoons to your big occasion.
Our beer garden can change with the occasion. The tented setup shown here pairs covered seating with an open-air gathering space, while flexible table arrangements make room for weddings, graduation parties, community events, and live-music nights.
Gather under the tent, spread out in the garden, or bring the energy of the elevated outdoor stage to your event when the weather allows. Talk with Andy about the layout and setup that fit your plans.
Plan your event at Kochanski's ↗Tent arrangements, outdoor performances, and availability are confirmed with the venue.
