Scuttlebutts Bar Scuttlebutts Bar is your neighborhood gathering place, located inside Hoeppner-Horn Bros. VFW Post 5716 in New Berlin. Open to the public. Everyone is welcome.

Join us for weekly entertainment, community events, cold beverages, and great company. Scuttlebutts - The term scuttlebutt came from the nautical term for the water fountain (cask) on board ships. At times, it became the focus of the congregation and a casual discussion area. Since sailors exchanged gossip when they gathered at the scuttlebutt for a drink of water, the word scuttlebutt became slang for gossip or rumors. So come and gather around our watering hole (bar) and talk, tell tales of adventure, stories of life, and share some wonderful laughs with friends. Bring your own friends or come and meet new ones. We hope to see you soon!

WAIT...YOU MEAN I CAN JUST WALK INTO THE VFW? ~ YES

We hear it more often than you might think.

Scuttlebutts Bar inside VFW Post 5716 (Hoeppner-Horn Bros VFW Post 5716) is OPEN TO THE PUBLIC.

You don't have to be a veteran. You don't have to be a VFW member. You don't have to know someone who is. You can come in for a drink, meet some friends, join us for an event or simply pull up a stool and say hello. And when you support Scuttlebutts, you're supporting a place whose mission goes far beyond the bar.

🤝 Connection

Now you know.

🇺🇸 DID YOU KNOW?🇺🇸

Hoeppner-Horn Bros. VFW Post 5716 (Hoeppner-Horn Bros VFW Post 5716) has been part of this community for 80 YEARS.

The idea began in November 1945, when two local veterans decided New Berlin should have a VFW Post of its own.

By January 1946, VFW Post 5716 (Hoeppner-Horn Bros VFW Post 5716) was officially chartered with 40 veterans from New Berlin, Muskego, Big Bend and Vernon.

And they weren't only thinking about veterans.

From the beginning, the mission included supporting the community through volunteer work...something that remains important to the Post today.

A lot has changed in 80 years.

But the heart of the mission hasn't.

🇺🇸 Supporting veterans. Serving our community. Bringing people together. 🇺🇸

We're pretty proud to be part of New Berlin's history...and even more excited about what's still ahead.

👻 IT'S GOING TO BE A LITTLE GHOSTLY AROUND HERE...

Scuttlebutts Bar and VFW Post 5716 (Hoeppner-Horn Bros VFW Post 5716) will be CLOSED Friday, October 30 & Saturday, October 31.

Apparently even our goblins, ghosts and bartenders need a little time to celebrate Halloween. 🎃😂

We'll be back after the haunting is over, the cobwebs are cleared and everyone has recovered from their candy hangovers.

Have a safe and Happy Halloween from all of us at Scuttlebutts Bar and the VFW Post 5716! 👻🎃

And remember...

If you hear something going bump in the night at the Post, we're closed. Don't ask us. 😂
