Start your next morning by visiting the Harley-Davidson Museum. If you’re looking to dance, head to LVL, but be advised there is a cover charge most nights. Walker’s Pint is the place for ladies to gather, while Kruz is the ‘daddy’ bar with really cool lighting and a nice patio space. The narrow space is warm and welcoming, although I heard the current owners are looking to expand. Not too far away is This Is It, the oldest gay bar in the city. My first stop was D.I.X, a trendy bar with some really cute bartenders and strong drinks.

It is always voted as one of the best gay cities to visit, so I decided to head out on the town for my first night in the city. The museum’s breathtaking moveable Burke Brise Soleil “wings” that soar against the backdrop of Lake Michigan, spanning the width of a Boeing 747 when extended. The museum houses more than 30,000 pieces in its permanent collection which includes works by Monet, Warhol and Picasso, in addition to one of the largest Georgia O’Keeffe collections in the world.

Not too far away is the iconic Milwaukee Art Museum, considered Wisconsin’s premier arts institution as well as Milwaukee’s lakefront masterpiece. Grab a cup of hot cocoa from Colectivo and explore the Historic Third Ward, which recently underwent a drastic revitalization and now boasts trendy boutiques, art galleries and specialty stores. The market also sells many regional products including artisan cheeses and creamy frozen custard. I sampled a cup of delicious tomato soup and coupled it with a serving of half a dozen fresh oysters from their oyster bar. The two-story market isn’t as massive as Seattle’s Pike Place Market, but it features a nice selection of local fare. As much as I don’t like snow, it was really cool to see a bit of snow atop the iconic Miller Brewing sign.įrom there, we headed to the Milwaukee Public Market, located in city’s Historic Third Ward neighborhood.

Throughout the tour we were forcefully fed samples of Miller beer products. Our first stop was the famous Miller Brewery Tour, where we learned about the ghost of Frederick Miller who haunts the historic Miller caves. Luckily, one of my lifelong friends, Steven Binko, is a Milwaukee resident so I had a permanent tour guide for the duration of my visit.
