Wauwatosa sits along the Menomonee River just west of Milwaukee, its name drawn from a Potawatomi word said to mean "far-off village," and the area still carries that small-town character despite its city neighbors. Village center streets fill with independent shops and dining rooms, and with 53 restaurants to choose from, food is clearly part of the draw. Visitors staying overnight will find 8 hotels nearby, making it easy to explore at a relaxed pace.
