Enrich your stay in Milwaukee with some of our favorite places in the city.
Museums
Milwaukee Art Museum
The Milwaukee Art Museum is one of the most beautiful and recognizable buildings in the whole city! It holds over 31,000 works of art over four floors. This was the site of our first date downtown in February 2017.
Discovery World
Discovery World is Milwaukee’s premier science and technology museum. The interactive exhibits and expansive aquarium make it a great place for families! Erik has worked here as an Automation Educator since 2017.
Milwaukee Public Museum
This museum is filled to the brim with artifacts and varied exhibits that highlight the area’s natural and human history. Among our favorite areas are the Puelicher Butterfly Wing and the Streets of Old Milwaukee.
Harley-Davidson Museum
This museum celebrates the 100+ year history of Harley-Davidson motorcycles. With over 450 motorcycles and thousands of artifacts, this destination is sure to please bikers and non-bikers alike.
Restaurants
Milwaukee Public Market
This is Milwaukee's most unique downtown food destination! Bursting with unique, high quality selections of artisan and ethnic products, and freshly-made prepared foods, you’re sure to enjoy shopping the independent merchants of the Milwaukee Public Market.
Onesto
Located in the heart of the Historic Third Ward, Onesto serves locally sourced Italian cuisine with handmade pasta and excellent craft cocktails. We both highly recommend the Fusilli pasta and flourless chocolate cake!
DanDan
DanDan is an Asian fusion restaurant, amusingly owned by two guys named Dan. The food is inspired by their own memories of eating at Chinese restaurants as children, and it’s all delicious!
Café Benelux
Café Benelux celebrates the culture of Lowlands Europe, with a full Belgian bier list, a from-scratch menu, and fabulous beignets. It’s our favorite brunch spot in all of Milwaukee!
Red Light Ramen
Ramen lovers assemble! This restaurant is small, but serves up some incredible ramen and sake if you’re lucky enough to score a seat. We prefer the Tonkotsu and Chicken Paitan.
Bars
The Outsider
There’s a reason we are hosting our Sunday brunch here. This rooftop bar provides panoramic views of the whole city. Cozy seating, outdoor firepits, and great drinks all make for a fantastic experience!
SafeHouse
This spy-themed bar, with its unassuming exterior in a back alley, is so secret that it’s protected by a password! Don’t miss out on this classic Milwaukee experience if you’re looking for a good time.
MobCraft
MobCraft is unique in that it offers wild beer flavors crowdsourced from the general public. Fruity pebbles, lemon meringue pie, and tropical shake are just a few of their winning flavors!
