get to know our Rooftop Bar
It’s all about that flexibility. And serious desirability. Six unique indoor and outdoor areas cover more than 5,000 square feet, while retractable glass walls make The Outsider a covetable destination in downtown Milwaukee as elegant, electrifying, and inviting in the winter months as it is warm, airy, and sophisticated in the summertime. Boasting plush daybeds and a retractable trellis, along with fire pits and blankets, being outside is always as cozy and comfortable as being in. Whether you gather with just a few friends, a few friends of friends, or all your favorite people, The Outsider offers endless opportunities for those days you hope never end.

"It's everything you want in your upscale cocktail bar — great views, comfortable seating, romantic ambiance, quieter vibes, good service, and most importantly — phenomenal cocktails! They even have some zero proof spirits for anyone that may not drink. ... I highly recommend this spot for anyone who wants a classic Milwaukee spot and a well-made cocktail."
