About This Venue
Wayfinder MKE is an event-focused cocktail bar and tiki venue on Milwaukee's East Side that specializes in hosting private celebrations, corporate gatherings, and memorable shared experiences. Part of the Explorium Hospitality Group, this versatile space combines globally inspired small plates, handcrafted cocktails, and a warm, refined atmosphere designed for connection—whether you're planning an intimate dinner or a larger celebration. The venue occupies the former Good City Brewing location on North Farwell Avenue and offers customizable private and semi-private spaces with flexible catering and vendor options tailored to your event needs.
During warmer months, the rooftop transforms into a casual open-air bar perfect for summer nights, serving frozen drinks, craft cocktails, beer, and wine with the option to bring in takeout from local restaurants. The team handles the details of your event while you focus on enjoying great food, drinks, and hospitality with your guests, making Wayfinder MKE an accessible option for East Siders and visitors looking for a thoughtfully designed gathering space that goes beyond typical venue experiences.
