Chris Lee Aries: I always loved the Milwaukee Public Museum! I went on a thursday and there was a lot of school kids and family's. It's nostalgic everytime going to the museum, the memorable field trips as a kid and now going in my adulthood. I went with a family member and I said we are going on all the floors seeing all the exhibits and we did. Always a fun time time here.

Kat Stewart: It was very nice, the exhibits had a lot to teach in every area we went in. It just needs a little tlc and updating and it'll be perfect! They are supposed to be moving to a new building and updating the exhibits soon, so we will definitely be checking it out then. I hope they get more interactive areas.Visited on Weekday Wait time No wait …

Margaret A. Dierickx: A great interactive place to take kiddos to learn, play and discover. The museum has made upgrades to their processes, so checking in was easy and quick. As a member I scanned my barcode and that was it. Parking was a breeze on a Saturday morning. We parked in front on Wisconsin Ave but there is also a parking structure under the museum and they will validate parking if you bring your ticket to the check in counter. Lots of exhibits to check out. Small town is always a favorite. Children can ride a Harley, drive a city bus, go shopping in a small sized Sendiks grocery store, take care of pets at the Veterinarians office, make a stop to withdraw some cash at the small town bank, or order a pizza at the pizzeria.They have a gated play area recommended for children 4 and under. Perfect to let little ones run around and explore without the fear of having them run away. They've now designated an area for snacks and drinks. Previously you had to leave food items packed away and eat in the lower level. Now they have a small convenient kiosk to purchase snacks, drinks for kids and coffee for adults. Tables are near the check in counter and you never have to leave the area to eat. They hild special events for members only and you can book birthday parties even if you're not member.Highly recommend becoming a member if you're local and plan on visiting more than a couple times a year. The perks are worth it.

Ana Hernández: Wait time No wait

Katie Knutson: We went on Good Friday and it was PACKED. That being said, it was the most fun we've ever had there! There were lots of staff around and everything was generally clean except for the eating area. Note to staff: it would be awesome to have a kid's hand washing sink around there! Also, leave out some disposable towels and a sanitizer spray and I bet many parents would clean their own tables before use.Lots of kids meant we had to wait for items like golf balls and shopping carts, but it also meant more kids to play with and to practice sharing and turn talking with. The kids adventuring around the hot lava course were so cute following each other. I only wish the cafe had been right there so I could have enjoyed a coffee while they played! In 5 hours, we only saw about 2/3 of the museum and all 3 kids wanted to stay longer. My eight-year old spent over an hour putting away groceries. WTH. How do I get that to happen at home??

Jarren Kennedy: I went to Betty Brinn for the first time with my wifey and 2 year old last weekend. This is one of the most fun/interactive experiences we’ve done in Milwaukee. The tiny scale Sendik’s was a popular spot as well as the city bus! This museum is very well laid out and will keep your little one entertained/engaged. 10/10 would recommend you check it out.

The Atomic Man Man: Nice historical place

S H: I visited this museum as a part of our office event. It was a good experience. We had a group of colleagues who had a good experience in the museum. The associate at the entrance briefs us about the rules and the regulations to not touch the vehicles or seat on them. Some of the vehicles in one section can be touched and sit on it to experience it. A good opportunity to read about the motorcycle evolution across the globe 🌏. A good opportunity to understand the journey of this company Harley Davidson. Overall a good experience.
