Things To Do
Milwaukee Public Market
We highly recommend MPM for a quick lunch or breakfast. There are some tables/seating but it's not really a "sit down" place-- more like a food hall (think Ponce City Market). Get the avocado toast with truffle oil from On The Bus.. you won't regret it!
Pabst Mansion
Sort of a mini version of the Biltmore Estate house. Yes, it's THAT Pabst!
Bronze Fonz
Walk along the river and check out a statue dedicated to one of Milwaukee's most famous residents!
Veterans Park
City park with views of Lake Michigan
Lakefront Brewery
One of Milwaukee's many amazing breweries.. Seriously there are a ton. Do a google search and see if any strike your fancy!
Mitchell Park Horticultural Conservatory
Milwaukee's conservatory, housed inside 3 iconic glass domes
Pizza Man MKE
Jay and Emily's favorite place to eat in MKE (reservation recommended for big groups)
Bars @ Old World 3rd Street + State
If you are looking for a place to imbibe, there's a stretch of classic Milwaukee bars starting at State Street and running north on N Old World 3rd Street. Start at Who's on Third and work your way north! (note - we will probably meet at one of these places for the wedding after party!)
Neighborhood: Historic Third Ward
One of Milwaukee's recently revitalized neighborhoods. Explore by walking south on Broadway at St. Paul
Colectivo Coffee Lakefront
Milwaukee's coffee shop! There are many locations but this is an especially good one if you can swing it. Check out the lake front park across the street when you are done.
Villa Terrace Decorative Arts Museum
Historic villa turned arts museum with gorgeous view of Lake Michigan
Stone Creek Coffee - Factory Café
Another great coffee shop!
SafeHouse
Words can't describe this spy themed bar. Definitely check it out if you can!
Onesto
Italian Restaurant would be a good dinner spot (reservation recommended)
SWIG
Another restaurant recommendation
SWIG
Another restaurant recommendation! (reservations recommended for large groups)
Burnhearts
This truly classic Milwaukee dive bar is a little bit of hike (short Uber ride) but worth it if you are feeling adventurous. (PS - if you go to Burnheart's, you should check out At Random. It's in the same neighborhood and is one of the most unique bars we've ever seen.)
Riverfront Pizzeria Bar & Grill
What can we say? We love pizza! Another great spot to eat that's right on the river.
Zarletti
Cute lil Italian joint located downtown - great for dinner!
