This is one of those secret spots that's been around for years but many still don't know about. Right on the river with boat access tucked away in with a factory and boat storage. Once you get in to the restaurant and large outdoor decks you'll forget going through what looks like a factory district dead end road to get there. It looks more like something you'd find on the ocean in Florida than in the city in Milwaukee. Cheap seafood and awesome tropical drinks. Live entertainment some days but not all. Weekend crab cakes benedict special along with a bloody mary bar. http://www.barnacle-buds.com/index.html This is a summer spot that is part of my excitement of the beginning of the warm weather as it's closed in winter.

Many shops in the same building as the winery where you can buy local wines and cheeses. The many shops have everything from antiques to handmade soaps, clothing, jewelry, and unusual toys. The main street the winery is on also holds old fashioned ice cream and candy shops. The small main street of the town is much like a step back in time.
