Sitting nine stories above Milwaukee’s Historic Third Ward, The Outsider is a rooftop bar and lounge designed to deliver an elevated social experience in every sense of the word. Blurring the line between indoor and outdoor living, the space serves as a vibrant stage for craft cocktails, small bites, and memorable conversations: day to night, season to season.

The Outsider brings people together through a refined yet approachable atmosphere that balances energy, comfort, and iconic city views. Warm materials, thoughtful lighting, and flexible gathering spaces create an environment that feels both exclusive and inviting.

Building on the success of the original design, The Outsider is currently undergoing an update renovation led by Kahler Slater, reimagining key elements of the space to enhance the guest experience while preserving the character and energy that have made it a beloved Milwaukee destination.
