Get Some Ink, Stay for a Drink

One of the most pleasantly unexpected things about Downtown Waukesha is just how pleasantly unexpected it is.

Our trendy district is home to an eclectic mix of attractions, from shops to art galleries, cafes, restaurants, and other unique boutiques. It shouldn’t surprise anyone, then, to learn that it’s also a destination where you can get the best brews and tattoos in the metro area.


Brews

Bringing the former Weber Brewing Company back to its brewing roots, North Pillar Brewing offers handcrafted beers in a stunning tap room that retains some of the features of this historic building. Magellan’s on Main Street has one of the largest tap lists in Waukesha County, with forty-eight craft beers on tap and creative, hand-tossed pizzas. If you prefer burgers with your beer, Mainstream Bar & Grill, Fuzzy’s Sports Pub & Grill, Hannon’s Fine Food & Cocktails, Lou’s Lucky Penny, or Salty Toad are the places to be!
