Things To Do
South Shore Terrace Kitchen & Beer Garden
A favorite spot for a drink and snack by the lake in good weather, and the farmer's market here is a fun Saturday morning activity. We got engaged on the beach just south of here!
Anodyne Coffee Roasting Co. | Walker’s Point
Learon's favorite local coffee chain in MKE--locations in Walker's Point, the Public Market, and Bayview
Third Space Brewing
Favorite MKE brewery, some might say it's our "Happy Place"!
Great Lakes Distillery & Tasting Room
Our favorite neighborhood spot for cocktails--the first distillery to open in Wisconsin since the prohibition.
Nonfiction Natural Wines
Best wine spot in MKE and snacks that are to die for!
3rd St. Market Hall
A fun spot with lots of food and drink options, places for kids to play and adults to hang out!
Ruby’s Bagels
The best bagels in MKE, according to Learon, and a weekly purchase--but Allie Boy's just down National is pretty tasty, too.
Honeypie Cafe
Fantastic brunch option, for a quicker version--check out their sister, SmallPie.
G. Groppi Food Market
Our favorite spot to pick up a picnic lunch (or breakfast)--check out their paninis and bakery in the front of the store, and there is a great little bar (and butcher shop) in the back.
The Vanguard
Tasty and unique sausages and brats--great any time of day.
Dorsia
Is there a better way to carbo-load for a fun weekend than with pasta flights?!
