Local highlights

Craft breweries
Milwaukee's brewing roots run deep. Lakefront Brewery, Third Space, and MobCraft are all within a few miles, with tours and taprooms worth a full afternoon.
Lakefront & parks
Lake Michigan is ten minutes away. Bradford Beach is the go-to in summer, and the Oak Leaf Trail connects parks across the whole city.
Historic Third Ward
Converted warehouses now hold galleries, boutiques, and some of the city's best restaurants. The Public Market is open daily and worth a stop.
Live music & nightlife
The Pabst Theater and Turner Hall book national acts year-round. Brady Street has bars and venues for a more local night out.
Summerfest & festivals
The world's largest music festival runs every June and July on the lakefront. The city hosts dozens of neighborhood festivals throughout the summer.
Friday night fish fry
A Wisconsin tradition. Dozens of bars and supper clubs around the city serve it every Friday. Ask us for our current favorite.
