I have to 2nd the Safe House. It is one of my favorite bars of all time.
The area that the Safe House is located is called "Water Street". This is the main bar district in downtown Milwaukee.
Safe House is on the North end of the district. Walk down Water Street and you find all kinds of hopping bars.
The downfall is Water Street is heavily frequented by college students (mainly MSOE, some UWM and Marquette students). If you drink in that area, be prepared to be around a bunch of sex deprived, obnoxious, drunk college students.
Things may have changed, but when I lived in the area, there was no nearby place to buy smokes after hours on Water St. Make sure you have enough for the night.

If you're visiting people south of Milwaukee or Madison, Metra (the area commuter railroad) is most likely the best option. On weekends Metra offers unlimited rides for just $5. The only line that actually goes into Wisconsin runs from downtown up to Kenosha. There area also stations on several lines that are in Illinois, but just south of the Wisconsin border. Very likely you can get someone to pick you up at those stations. Service varies a lot on weekends, but generally runs at a minimum every two hours. The ride is slow (figure 2 - 2.5 hours to the end of the line), but the price is right on weekends. On weekdays Amtrak really is your best option. There are assorted deals that will get the price down to the $40 range for a round-trip between Chicago and Milwaukee. Buses (pretty much exclusively Greyhound) are almost always more expensive and no faster. You can sometimes save money by going from Milwaukee to Chicago via Madison and Rockford, but that's not likely to be all that cheap either. Your other option is likely to look into ride-sharing.
