Food scene
Great european themed cafe - wide local and Belgian beer selection. A sunny patio in the summer, and cozy outdoor dome seating in the winter! Awesome brunch spot - the Milwaukeean Bloody Mary is a must! To get the whole WI experience, you can pair it with the Sconnie burger.
Heads up - this restaurant is a bit pricy, however they use all local ingredients!

Ever wanted to drink strong tropical cocktails while experiencing an exotic, jungle adventure, filled with candle lit tikis, glowing puffer fish? This is the tiki bar you never knew you needed to visit while staying in Shorewood, WI! Highly recommend sharing the volcano bowl! They do not serve food, this is the perfect bar to round your night out!

Parks and Beaches
Must stop by and spend time at the infamous Atwater park & beach. There are a lot of stairs and/ or a long ramp to get to the beach. There is a children's playground at the top and at the bottom. There's also a nice boardwalk at the bottom with benches to enjoy the view. Secluded and serene.
Warning: the stairs to get down to the beach are steep and quite the climb on the way back. If you have small children or aren't a fan, you may find them to be a challenge. They are worth the hike.

Great urban park along the river! Hike Oak Leaf Trail with a beer in your hand. The park has a very nice restaurant that features lodge style food & outdoor dining area/beer garden. Favorites include: braised elk steak, bison meatloaf and the boar ravioli. Also a great place to check out the Friday fish fry!
