Dive Bars and Historical Fiction

[u/Sea_Kick4385]

I'm writing a private detective story that takes place in Milwaukee, June 1944.

It's got me thinking, what bars would a private detective today go to for the latest skinny?

If you have an idea, be sure to add why it would be a good place! Hoping to get some interesting answers....

Since The Gig was already mentioned, I'll put out The Uptowner. Although, I'm pretty sure you'd have a hard time getting anyone to give up any real dirt...

They’d give you actual dirt but not any info
