Benjamin Rowan

Fun little themed restaurant . Worth seeing it if you're in town . Food is alright. Atmosphere is cool. Some might find it campy, but it's a cool experience. Try and see all the rooms.

Summer

Awesome experience for first timers and out of towners! If I came here again, I would focus on appetizers and drinks, the main part of the menu is of the lowest quality!

Brian Artka

Not a place to eat really, but for drinks and a unique experience, its great. You have to enter from the alley, and you need to tell a password to the bouncer to get in. When leaving, use the payphone

Maria Pflugradt

I love the spy memorabilia that they have. The beer is alright...???? I just wish that they had more of a cool thing still going...I came here for my 21st Birthday last year.

Jordan Swenson

Great place to go and have fun with family and friends. I went there for my birthday and was taken down to a secret area! Ask for the top secret drink, Spies Demise, so good!

Jake Smith

All the places at the bar have plaques with titles. Find the one labeled "Reserved For Control"; it's the best seat in the house.

Keith K.

It's a "been there/done that" kind of place for me, but I still enjoy bringing first-timers there. And I don't share the password with them until we're in, and I tell them where they can find it.

John Lowe

I had the hamburger , very juicy and good. Came with pickles , tomato slice , and lettuce. Delicious with the locally brewed beers .

Social News Network

Perfect place to take friends. Entrance is hidden off the main road , and you have to have password to get in. If you show up, you'll be able to get in easily.

L Wilson

Besides being a really fun atmosphere , the food is surprisingly incredibly delicious! Best cheese curds I've had!

Art of Adventuring

To enter this bar , you must know the secret code. If you do not know the secret code, you will have to pass a test to enter. Passing the test is pretty great but I won’t spoil it for you. Read more

Laura Doxsee

Really fun place! The food is good, the atmosphere is fun, and it's good for taking the kids and out-of-town guests.

Ricky Sherrill

A must go when in Milwaukee. Go with some friends and be prepared for a fun evening.

Erin Kalawart

We had a great time. Special agent Smith hooked us up on some really great martinis !

Matthew Taub

Awesome place for adults and kids! Make sure to use the secret exit . It’s worth the dollar.

James Wilson

It's sad that Marcus Corp changed how it is more of a corporate restaurant feel instead of the fun themed spy bar . The changes to the classic drinks were not for the better either.

First We Feast

Located in a building inconspicuously marked as “International Exports Ltd,” you must figure out a secret password to gain access. Read more

Francesca Aiello

Go see the Magician on Thursday night and ask him to do the "fork trick" and then you get to keep the fork nice souvenir! Tip him well too he deserves it ;)

Hana Steil

I got the killer Mac and cheese ! $16 and not a big portion but still good!

Alexandra Mertz

So much fun! The cheese curds and boneless wings are great. Make sure to the the scavenger hunt!

VISIT Milwaukee

It's not impossible that this classified joint is one of the favorites of Milwaukeeans & International Spies alike. Enjoy edibles fit for a spy on the run! Share Mission Impossible with fellow spies.

The Most Interesting Man in the World

The last time I was in a safe house it was with a former prince, several bodyguards and a Secret Service agent. It was twice as scary, and the food was half as good.

Britan Ray

You have to get a drink!! Try the mission impossible or the unique martinis . Great specials!

Brian Silcott

Try the Odd Job martini . "Like a bond villian a bizarre (and delicious) mix of Patron, Tequila , St Germaine Elderflower Liqueur , cranberry juice , and a splash lime ".

Rachel Markwiese

Its a fun place to go but only if u have people from out of town . I would never come here on my own with locals cuz it's cool but the food is no good but it's a cool concept & it was a real speakeasy !

Jillian Boris

Really good cheese curds ! It's a lot of fun to walk through the restaurant .

First We Feast

Without the password, the security at the door will give customers embarrasing missions to complete in order to enter. Read more

Heidi Dowling

The kids loved the spy stuff, the atmosphere was fun! Hamburgers where very good.

Brian Searl

Many will advise you the food is not good but arrive early and the full dinner menu is great and affordable . Be sure to spend time wandering around and reading/interacting.

Emery Markles

This place is pretty cool! If you're in the mood for an intriguing place, go here. Highly recommend it!

Craig Wendland

The Beer Battered Cod Is Awesome. Try It.

Keith K.

The last time I saw the Bronze Fonz up-close, he had something stamped on his forehead that implicated the Safe House (see the Bronze Fonz venue page). His nostril hid the USB outlet.

Alysha Balog

Super silly but worth a visit.

Jessica Woodburn

Be sure to come in the evening. They dont open for dinner till 5. Better atmosphere then. Try the spinach & artichoke dip !!!

James Newman

Park at the InterContinental, take lift to ground floor, use exit to your right (exit with atm ) and it's right across the street!

Andy Dreyer

Boneless buffalo wings are so worth the higher price, bartender is amazing!!!

Jeff Bishop

If you wAnt a great cocktail , see Mark. He's like Frankenstein creating superb drinks. Plus it's fun to watch.

Russ W-D

The good is great. The spy theme well done.

If I talked about this place I could be killed... but I liked it.

Dan Kuehling

You need a reservation . Even if you don’t think you need one, you need one.

Kari Haese

I did not think the cheese curds were that great. My husband had a burger and it was red in the middle and greasy. But it was fun to go in there.

teresa lasky

The magician was so much fun!

David Turney

This place is a trip. No place like it in the world. Just go, if ever in Milwaukee; I will be again next trip.

ᴡ Liberski

Overpriced food, nothing special, but the environment & decor is amazing

Anna Bauer

Thursday night blackjack - $5 buy in and win free drinks

Sarah Jane

If you don't want to have the BG's the next day on a five hour car trip, avoid the food!!! Drinks are good tho!

Carol Voss

Family friendly for lunch (great for Tweens), great for first date, theme drinks, groups at night. Fun!

Jordan Holton

Code beer is straight doo doo. But they give you the mug so I guess that makes up for it.

Eric Grosskreutz

Had a problem with paying cover charge and a manager took care of us. Great service by Mary P!
