Remedy at Milwaukee and Western is recommended for cocktails and the value of its happy hour. Several patrons enjoy a cozy mood earlier in the evening, and it receives date recommendations too. Others say it becomes louder and livelier late at night. One first-time visitor found it crowded and uncomfortable but intended to try a weeknight; another had an unfavorable impression of the room.
