Milwaukee Public Market

Located in the beautiful historic Third Ward District sits the Milwaukee Public Market, where the red neon sign has become an iconic figure on the Milwaukee landscape. The market was based on the famous Pike Place Market in Seattle. Although considered a "farmer's market" this is is probably the most upscale "farmer's market" that you will ever see! It is filled with artisans and purveyors of fine gourmet foods such as sushi, seafood, cheese, spices, along with Mediterranean, Mexican and Italian dishes. I have never been to a public market (other than in Europe) where you can choose your drink from a wine bar, a beer bar, or even a margarita bar--only in Milwaukee!
