Walked in, was seated and immediately noticed the Pilcrow glass on the table with some flowers in it. Ordered a couple Pilcrow sweet and creamy and this place started at 5 stars just for that! My son and I tried the breakfast casserole and my wife had the ham biscuit sandwich, while the little ones split some French toast and scrambled eggs. The casserole was probably the most unique breakfast dish I've ever had. A casserole dish that has a large biscuit at the bottom, melted cheese and slightly over cooked egg on top with the rest of their entire breakfast menu in between (sausage gravy, bacon, potatoes, mushrooms). While each item was cooked and tasted delicious on its own, I'm not sure it totally worked for me having it all combined into one dish. Don't get me wrong, it was tasty and I highly recommend trying it, it's a huge serving (bigger than the pics make it look) and hit the spot in satisfying my hunger, an innovative breakfast dish that has to be experienced! My wife loved her pulled ham breakfast sandwich and after trying a bite, it was some of the most flavorful ham I've ever had. Kids loved the eggs and French toast was standard. We didn't have room for pie but I have had it before, it's the best in town, 5 stars all the way. read more

Typical conversation... Friend: Where should we go for dinner? Dustin (Me): I don't know, what kind of food are you in the mood for? Friend: I could do anything really, as long as it's good. Me: Hmm. We could do Honeypie? Friend: Sure. Me: Hmmm. Man, I feel like I always go to Honeypie... Friend: OK...where then? Me: Let's just do Honeypie. And the reason I always go to Honeypie is because I love Honeypie. I love the food, the decor, the patio, the drinks, the service, THE PIES (oh god, the pies - try their namesake, the Honey Pie, please, try it). Honeypie is my favorite Bay View restaurant, if not my favorite Milwaukee restaurant. I have never had a poor experience, and I encourage anybody who has had one to try it again as it is likely the exception and not the rule. If you've had multiple poor experiences, I'm sorry, you should give them another shot. From Mac 'n Cheese to Pork Fries (PORK FRIES. They are what they sound like, and while listed as an appetizer, unless you're sharing them, they are a meal), Honeypie offers something unique, and amazing pie (and cupcakes). read more

Honeypie, how I love you so. From the bevy of gorgeous pies & cupcakes to the homey breakfasts, Honeypie has quickly become one of my favorite restaurants in the city. When friends come visit from out of town & want a great breakfast, I bring them here. They're ~always~ happy & full when they leave. I know they serve lunch/dinner items, but I usually only ever go for breakfast, because I'm the kind of person who wants to eat breakfast foods at all hours of the day & night. The french toast is divine; the bread is thick brioche that is lightly textured & fried crisp. I LOVE that they serve real maple syrup instead of its evil cousin, "maple flavored" corn syrup. And don't get me started on their biscuits. They're HUGE- they're easily the size of a baby's blanket! But they're so tender & flaky....*drools* I've come here just to order them, even though I can never eat a whole biscuit in one sitting. I love that they serve Anodyne coffee, & they serve it in those old diner-style mugs that everybody's grandma seems to own. They get busy quickly on weekend mornings/afternoons, but I've never had a ridiculous wait for a table & the service is always polite. But the real jewel of this cafe are the pies. The pies! They give me life everlasting. Each kind I've had was 'knock your socks, pants & shoes off' good. They're the kind of pies your granny would make if she knew you were coming to visit more often. The pies are so spectacular that when my sweetie was recently celebrating his birthday, he wanted pies from Honeypie instead of birthday cake for his party. I went overboard & bought 5 pies (hey, why not?) & the birthday pies were a hit at the party. We ate leftover birthday pie for a solid week afterward! We even put one of them in the freezer & reheated it later in the oven, & it was just as delicious as the night it was made. Just writing this review has made me hungry. BRB, I'm heading to Honeypie. read more

Boy oh boy oh boy. Ultimate comfort food. Order the pork fries. Don't expect to do anything productive for the rest of the day. They're like a mix of poutine and nachos, and one order could feed a family of four. I haven't ever ordered pie here (how did I manage this????), but I have gotten the chicken biscuit pie. If that is any indication of Honeypie's baking skillz, I should go and order a full apple pie right now. The best deal here is the pasty. $9 and it comes with sides. Delicious, and it reminds me of up nort'. I wasn't a huge fan of the bloodies. Sometimes the service can be hit or miss. Account for a potential wait for a table. read more

Hi Honeypie, you adorable, wonderful, place you. Thank you for giving me loads of delicious food in an adorable cozy setting every time. Your pulled pork sandwiches are to die for and your fries rock. I only got to sample a bite of your mac 'n cheese, but I know you are very much all that I want in a mac 'n cheese (pro-tip: you should totally throw some pulled pork on top of that mac 'n cheese). Cupcakes and treats always look so tempting, I have not yet given in, I think that may have to change sooner rather than later. A couple of things to note, they do not take reservations that I know of, and brunch get real busy. Also this is generally the kind of place you hang out at for a while, not much of a get in get out place, which is good for most occasions just make note if you are under any sort of time constraints when you go. read more

This patio is quaint as fuck! I mean seriously, they have one of the cutest back patios I've ever seen. It's so inviting and secluded. I'm in love. And I live sooooo close! Also, can I get a shout out for burgers with eggs on them??? So messy, so sassy, so tasty! read more

This quaint little cafe near Mitchell Airport was perfect for lunch. Their breakfast menu didn't look half-bad either with stacks of french toast you wouldn't believe. Almost wish I'd tried those too. I had a delicious lamb sandwich with house fries. The lamb was similar to a pulled pork in consistency, and so flavorful. Fresh greens on the sammy with a nice house dressing too. My daughter had the tomato soup with the steak sandwich - Oh So Good!!! Their walnut pecan pie was the best thing we ate, and it is a pie shop for goodness sakes!!! Yum. read more

Stopped by on Labor Day 2009. First, Im glad to see another restaurant here. Second, the decor and location is great. Third, the food is impressive looking, tastes good but lacks some flava. Fourth, the service is slower than frozen molasses. I would rate this higher, but the service took forever and other members of my group have experienced the slow service in prior visits. It may have been our server only or a kitchen issue, but if they get with it, they may have a repeat customer. read more

Stumbled upon this gem! We ordered the Pork Fries. I'm not a huge pork fan but the pork was amazing on these fries! The entire combination was yummy,yummy! I will definitely get these again. read more

Honeypie Cafe - Pork Fries! Yummy, Yummy! IG: Tyme2Go_Eat - New American Near Me - Milwaukee, Wisconsin

I've been to Honeypie three times (brunch once, dinner twice), and I've had great experiences each time. The food is awesome, servers are great, and I love the atmosphere. I was lucky and got outdoor seating twice - their patio is the most adorable urban oasis. I've tried arriving at off times because I've heard from others that there can be a bit of a wait sometimes. They do not take reservations, so just be prepared if you're coming at peak times. It's well worth it, though. I promise! read more

The back patio was lovely on a nice warm late summer night. The food was good, although I really don't remember what I ate...what I do remember is that much of the menu was very unhealthy and it was hard to get a low carb option...but I guess in the Midwest that is the norm. I watched a table of severely overweight people polish off a HUGE plate of Pork Fries before their actual meal (a heaping plate of fries, covered with bbq pork and cheese and gravy) and it sort of sickened me a little bit. I was just off the plane and still reeling from the affects of dramamine so I cant fully blame the pork fries for my unsettled stomach but it didnt help. The service was very slow and a little "attitude-y". Our friends who live in Milwaukee like this place but I don't think I would swing back here next time I am in town. read more

I went for lunch with coworkers. Luckily, we arrived a bit before the major lunch crowd and found an 8 seat table. I was pleased with the amount of vegetarian options and healthy options. I love that they offer breakfast on weekdays until 3pm (though, I didn't see pancakes on the menu...). I ordered the Klug Sandwich - which is a vegetarian sandwich on nice crispy french type bread (they said ciabatta on the menu, but I've never seen a sub-shaped ciabatta before) with jalapenos, tomato, cheese (gruyere and cheddar), onion, lettuce and tomato. I ordered this sandwich without mayo and without cheddar, but it came completely cheeseless (no discount on the price, I wish I'd had time to send it back! I wanted that gruyere!). Overall it was pretty good. I am sure it would have been much improved with the cheese. The fries that came with it were pretty good, a few were greasy, but overall crispy. My coworkers all seemed to like their dishes. I got a piece of chocolate cream pie to go. HOLY COW! No, literally, this incredible cream had to have come from a holy cow. Incredible, incredible, cream and sugar and chocolate silk pie with a delicious sweet and even a little salty graham cracker crust. Yes, this pie has made it into the coveted Best Things I Have Ever Eaten list. read more

I end up eating at Honeypie a few times each year, but I'm never very impressed. Why do I keep going back? Well, I end up visiting in groups when restaurant choice is left to someone else and honestly I just keep hoping it'll get better! I noticed today that Honeypie has upped their fare - and prices - quite a lot since my last visit. I find it odd that a small restaurant on KK in Bayview with wooden tables and an "outdoorsy" decor would be serving $20 steaks. The new food items just don't fit with the decor, and I'm definitely not happy with their lack of a happy hour or weeknight drink specials and the strangely high prices on the rest of the menu. I had a $9 salad for dinner. It was fine, but nothing amazing. My cupcake, the one item I was really looking forward to, not having been disappointed by these Honeypie & Comet Cafe treats in the past, ended up being 75% frosting! The cake actually only rose to halfway up the cupcake liner; really disappointing. Honeypie, I appreciate that you're trying to make changes, but I think you're headed in the wrong direction. I'd like to see more well-honed comfort food at comfort food prices. Although, the other patrons in the restaurant tonight were all over the age of 50, so maybe I'm just not the target consumer. read more

Just came home from the family get together for my husband's birthday. We ordered a carrot cake and a vegan blueberry pie ahead of time. O.M.G. I didn't try the carrot cake, but everyone raved including his cousin who really isn't into carrot cake. It does fall apart easily, but who cares that is one big yummy cake (three layers and lots of frosting)! I ate the blueberry streussel pie though... the first time I've had one of their pies and I'm in LOVE. Best. Pie. EVER. Eat with some vegan vanilla ice cream and you have Heaven on a plate. Since I wasn't having carrot cake I bought the cappuccino cupcake (the only vegan option at the time we picked up our order) and it was super sweet but super good. I love how much frosting is on their cupcakes, if you're not a frosting fan just take some of it off. Again, Honey Pie has made me oh so happy! I think I have an obsession here. :-P--- read more

PORRRRKKK FRIESSSSSS!!!!!! This place seriously rocks. I really haven't had anything like it. I've visited Honeypie four times now, and every time, it impresses. The location could be better. Parking is limited, but is available on the street in front of the restaurant, and on the side streets. Right when you walk in the warm atmosphere is as inviting as grandma's house on Christmas Eve. Drink list is superb for a Cafe. I would consider Honeypie to be Midwestern cuisine. Simple, yet amazing, and perfect for guilty pleasures in life. Pork Fries- Holy Hey Zeus, the pork fries hit the spot. Every time. Couple warning tips.. #1. It is quite hot. Jalepeños and scallions top the fries. Underneath lies cheese and awesomely seasoned potato fries. #2. Don't be tricked into getting this as an appetizer for oneself. It is a meal in its entirety. But at $11, you can't go wrong. Just make sure you have some water. The Burger- This thing is massive. Never had anything like it. They even put an egg on it. With bacon. With caramalized onions. Just don't make the mistake of ordering it with the pork fries for yourself. You won't finish both. Chicken Biscuit Pie - Solid, but I wouldn't get it again. Heats up well in the microwave. I would probably consider this to be one of the more boring choices of the menu, but hey, it taste good! Dessert Pie- Banana cream pie and cherry pie are excellent. If you are in the area and don't really feel like ice cream or gelato from Cream City Swirl next door, walk to the back of Honeypie and order a pie to go. You won't be disappointed. Price is around 4-7 bucks for a slice. Not bad. Overall, this place rocks. One of my new favorite places to eat in the Milwaukee area. read more

I kind of had to sit on this review for a few days because I was trying to decide if I should give Honeypie Café a 4 or 5 star rating. The food here is pretty amazing and is a great brunch or lunch spot to go with coworkers. I don't think I would take my entire family here if you have kids but I believe this would be a great place for adults. The menu has all different kinds of food for all different kinds of taste buds/ appetites. I would call it more of like an American Fusion bar/ restaurant. Everyone raved about their plates from the biscuits and gravy to the soups/ braised ribs and even Bahn Mi if you know what that is? It is always nice to find a spot that supports other local business also from the coffee right down to the condiments. read more

One of my absolute favorite resteraunts in bayview. So much so that my husband and I have driven 45 minutes to eat here. The atmosphere is very cozy and user friendly. They cater to local foods and healthy eating. Depending on how busy they are you will either be seated or see a sign that asks you to seat yourself. The biggest draw to honeypie has I be the pies. The list changes daily on a big chalkboard behind the lit up Pie counter. The pies are easily seen inside the pie counter and are meals In themselves they are so huge! My favorite pie here is the almond joy and salted honey. Soooo good. If you want tasty food with good service you must check out honeypie and of course order that slice of pie. read more

Everything is spotty and inconsistent at Honeypie. Sometimes the food is good, other times they miss the mark. Same on service and bartenders. you either get someone who's nice and attentive or someone who's totally out of it. The last good thing i had there - eggs benedict (brunch) the last bad thing i had there - squash risotto (dinner) Sad to say, but the inconsistency will probably keep me from coming back. read more

Awesome!! We met our niece here for a late breakfast on a Thursday morning, we did not wait at all. Everything looked amazing, but I knew I wanted those "pork fries". Holy god were those fantastic. I also tried the corn muffin which was a little dense, but it was still delicious. My niece was so full from her chili that she ended up taking her sandwich home. I'd definitely eat here again when I'm back in Milwaukee. read more

Glad to see Honeypie come to this neighborhood as it is where I hang when I come to Milwaukee to visit the fam. It looks radically different from Anona (the previous establishment) and in a good way. It is much cosier. Nice bar, comfy booths. Taxidermy here and there but didn't bother me. We went for lunch on a Tuesday and it was packed with a wait (it is the holiday season) BUT we just walked in and sat at the counter. Bartender was busy so ordering was a little slower than at a table, but you don't have to wait for a table. better deal, no? I had the porkslaw sandwich with a salad (cuz I'm trying to be healthy, yo). Go for the basil mustard dressing. It is sweet and tasty. Sammy was good but I was sad about all the onions in my slaw. Not the best pulled pork around, but still yummy. SigO had the burger and it was amazing. Crazy over-the-topness with bacon, two types of cheese, two patties, a fried egg... and who knows what other mysterious ingredients. Decadent but delicious. There are healthy things on the menu, but we didn't order them and looking around it didn't look like other people were either. But everyone looked pretty darn happy. Add some tap beers and get some more veggie options and it would be excellent. There were veggie and vegan options on the menu but they were out of some key ingredients for those dishes (and had been for a while they admitted). I'll be back. read more

Anodyne coffee and a smorgasbord of apple and coconut cream pies, banana choc chip, carrot, strawberry and almond chocolate cupcakes... Slices and cupcakes were HUGE! Three of us greatly increased our chances of acquiring diabetes, but it was well worth the stop for desserts on a Wednesday night. The ladies behind the counter were very helpful, but somewhat preoccupied with side-projects. I like the look of the menu and the pricing was pretty fair. I'll be back to try more. read more

I am giving Honeypie 5 stars for their brunch. I have not eaten dinner here yet although my bestie and fellow foodie tells me their food is always great. But I digress. Brunch: not only the meal that combines breakfast and lunch, but also the meal that makes drinking at 9am on a Saturday socially acceptable. Which automatically makes me a big fan. I started with the Mimosa, which was better than most cuz they mix it over ice and serve it in a pint glass. Way better than the champagne glass set up. Hubby got a Beermosa, also very good. Bestie got a Bloody Mary. She asked for it spicy so they made it with a Chipotle infused Vodka...fabulous. Great garnishes included salami, cheese, pickled green beens...and some other stuff I can't remember. ****You have to order their biscuits and gravy, get it as a side if you want but this is nonnegotiable. This biscuit melts in your mouth and their sausage gravy is the best I have ever had, not joking here I pretty much want to smother everything I eat for the rest of my life in that gravy. I actually ordered their breakfast casserole which was layered with biscuit, home style potatoes, mushrooms, sausage gravy, and cheddar cheese. It is broiled and then topped with an egg sunny side up. Perfection. I ate every morsel which induced an immediate food coma but who cares because it tasted sooooo good. Hubby had the breakfast burrito, which I thought was good but it did not compare to the fabulous layered sausage gravy goodness on my plate. Did I mention how good the gravy is? Bestie had a ham biscuit sandwich with (of course) a side of gravy. Again, everything in life is better with this gravy. Our server was really friendly and our food came out fast considering the place was packed with a 20 min wait. In summary: go here for breakfast or brunch...get the biscuits and gravy....do not deviate from these instructions. read more

I've been to Honeypie twice now, and I think I can now confidently say that this place stands out among the "trendy late 20s/early 30s Bayview hangout" genre of restaurant. My first trip was awhile back. I don't remember much in terms of specifics other than liking my food and having a friend almost cream his jeans over a risotto special that was offered that night. My second trip was earlier tonight. My fiancée recommended Honeypie; I was a bit skeptical, because I'm used to the typical Bayview restaurant experience taking a little while and I wanted to be home before dark so that I could get some work done. With a little bit of prodding, I relented. This is a Yelp first for me, but I want to specifically mention my server. The receipt said his name was Rob. Rob, I'm calling you out! You rock! Seriously, this guy is a great server. From the time we sat down he had just a sense of casual coolness that marked the whole experience. Even though I'm unlikely to see the guy again (well, unless I come back to Honeypie again in the near future..which, maybe? If the mood strikes me?), his whole attitude just made him easy to talk to and joke around with a bit. Even when he was clearly trying to upsell us on dessert or a side or whatever, he did it in a way that wasn't in the least bit intrusive or annoying. This guy, and I say it with no irony intended whatsoever (and also as somebody who served my time in the service industry), is that any server who cares at all about their job should aspire to be. As far as drinks go, they had a good selection but I opted for water tonight because I suck. My fiancée had a cocktail--the green something something--that I sampled. It tasted like a green drink should. Actually, it was extremely good. It tasted strongly of ginger and a bit of lime, maybe? I don't know, I didn't look at the description. It was very good though. The food itself was also great. I only had the pastie special with no sides because I had a big lunch and wasn't terribly hungry tonight; it was full of meaty, black beany goodness. The dough was very flaky, almost like phyllo. It was hearty and filling, but not over the top. My fiancée had the mac and cheese with bacon crumbled over the top. When we saw that in the menu, we figured "yeah, yeah, probably some chintzy, anemic bits of bacon." Nope, this is some cripsy, thick cut stuff that is sprinkled liberally over the top of the dish. It's excellent. And I almost forgot: the appetizer. We tried the pretzel. Mostly the pretzel is an excuse to shovel beer cheese into your talking-hole. The beer cheese is very strong, but it compliments the pretzel well (and for that matter, goes great with a bite of pastie or mac and cheese). I'd recommend it. I said to myself awhile back that I'd be hard pressed to write any of the classic Bayview places a 5/5. Well, now I'm making a liar of myself. Honeypie easily walks away from tonight with five stars. (Also, I'm adding this bit to the end because my fiancée has asked me to: apparently one of her co-workers recently gave her a Honeypie chai cupcake for her birthday. She says it's to die for. I dunno ¯\_(ツ)_/¯) read more

Honey pie is a fun neighborhood restaurant bar. Their menu is really diverse with all day breakfast and they serve real maple syrup ( extra star for that). Service was really good and although my schnitzel on pretzel bread was good, it was hard to eat, not super hot and overall, it was a bit disjointed. I think it reads better on paper than it tastes. Their pies are usually good but the banana caramel pie was not very fresh ( limp whipped cream and brown bananas along with a crust that had sogged-up and dripped with not so fresh banana juice They can do better read more

We had dinner this past Thursday night. We ordered the Mac and Cheese (with bacon) and the Klug- a field roast sandwich with fries. We have been here a few times and the Mac and Cheese has always been fabulous. It is much better than Café Hollander's. I am a vegetarian and have ordered it with jalapenos and tomatoes. I have had field roast non-meats before but the type served up most recently on my sandwich was inedible and I had to peel it off my sandwich and then ultimately pushed the fabulously looking but sadly inedible dish aside. The field roast tasted like it was cured in cinnamon to cover up its past date fresh mark. I would have informed our beret donning waitress but she was too busy talking it up with her friends in a different booth. She returned to us as we were almost done with our meals. I would have given four or even five stars but the service is touch and go. If you see the waitstaff hanging out with friends as you walk in and they ignore you- take it as your cue to go and try again later. The food IS worth returning for. Tip: order the basil-citrus dressing with your salad. It's great. And order the alcohol drink served with ginger liquor and lemonade. read more

Number of diners: 3 including one picky eater Meal: Brunch Day of the week: Saturday Weather outside: cold and drizzly (it matters) Arrival time: 12:55 and it was packed - due to the weather, people waiting were crammed in the doorway - looked like many of the seated customers had not gotten their food. Seating time: 1:45 yes that is almost one hour wait. We thought we would tough out the wait time to see if it was worth it. diners with only two people will most likely be seated quicker especially if you are willing to sit at the bar. Food served 2:05 pretty good since I figured the long wait was due to a slow back of the house. Ordered: 2- Honeypie Benedict - the biscuit, sausage and poached egg with sauce tasted great individually and together they were very satisfying, the potatoes were cooked perfectly, little crunchy yet soft. Used gravy from Farmers Breakfast on the potatoes for a delicious cardiac punch Farmers breakfast- the scrambled eggs were cooked well, tasted fresh and were ample. French toast delicious and REAL maple syrup as it should be. Ambiance: Meh, not weird enough to be interesting and pretty dark. Scored on a slice of Chocolate cream pie (thanks J). Quite good, and interesting hint of spice. Service: Okay. Our server was nice enough but not memorable. The other floor waitress looked like she was recovering from an all night bender and hated life. Bill: $36+ for 3 meals, coffee, lemonade and soda. Departure: 2:30 - still a short line for brunch Overall very good food and worth the wait if you have the time. Not really a spot for kids younger than 10 due to the wait. read more

I had the pasty of the day there and it hit the spot. The pastry was nice and flaky and the meat, cabbage filling were just right. I rarely finish my sides but those caramelized cauliflower were just too tasty to ignore. I regret not saving enough room for the pies or cupcakes but there will be a next time. read more

Honeypie Cafe - Amazing pasty of the day and caramelized cauliflower!! Very satisfying - New American Near Me - Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Oh god. This place is FANTASTIC. The breakfast pork pies were DELICIOUS, the waitress was LOVELY, and the deserts looked AMAZING *note to self, next time have nothing but desert because the breakfasts are GOOD sized portions of delicious*. We.will.return. read more

I'd like to give this place 4 stars, if only for the mouthwatering french fries they've served up (generously) with every sandwich I've bought. But their service prevented me from doing so -- Honeypie is consistently super-duper slow. It doesn't matter what time of day or night I arrive, how many other customers are present, or what my restaurant mates and I order. Slow slow slow slow slow! If you're not in a hurry and you feel like having some delicious comfort food, then put your patience on and head over to Honeypie. If you have any sort of time constraint or generally lack patience, then walk a few blocks up to Lulu or Centraal for a similar meal served more promptly. read more

Have to say how much I love their weekend brunch menu. The Honeypie Benedict is super delicious--order it with field roast (it's awesome). Also, their coffee is super tasty and their morning adult beverages are awesome like the 'Sconniemosa. If you're in for brunch, get there early if you want to avoid a wait. Around noon it can get a little ridiculous with folks waiting for tables (not Comet ridiculous, but you get the idea). Also, pies and cupcakes FTW. Haven't had a bad one yet. Also, who doesn't love a place that serves cupcakes where the cupcake to frosting ratio is approximately 1:1 ? read more

I don't know why it has taken me so long to try this place! The waiter was great and he has as I told him "a voice for radio." He was knowledgeable and thoroughly explained the menu. Our food was reasonable and delicious! I will be back! *Next time, I must save room for their renowned dessert:) read more

The service was lovely and we stayed a long time. I give the lady credit for tolerating us for as long as she did. Nary a raised eyebrow or a frustrated sigh. The Pork Fries were delicious. Wonderful. Lovely. Decadent. All the things. They were everything. The Chicken Biscuit pie was OK, but it was generally sort of bland. I bumped it up with some salt and that seemed to help matters but it's disappointing I had to do that. The pie, while delicious, was outrageously priced. It didn't occur to me to ask the cost before ordering because I've eaten a lot of fancy pies in fancy places and I had thought I wouldn't bat an eyelash at any high priced pie. Well. Many eyelashes were batted. Overall it was nice and funky, but way too overpriced for what we ended up getting. They place isn't really expensive, just not worth the cost. I'd return and get those pork fries, but I don't think I'd return unless they lowered their prices or I got a better job. read more

Other user says, "What that server didn't understand is that we have three kids. We don't get to out often, so when we do, I want it to be a great night. My wife doesn't "cheat" on her diet often, but when she does, she wants it to be for something great." Felicia agree! When wife cheats, other food must be handsomer than mac n cheese in box! Server should know cupcake was uglier! Server should also know that man has children! So rare to have children, server should have treated man special! Felicia angry! Felicia smash! read more

Better then average but not quite 5 stars... hard to explain why but I didn't quite get the 5 star feeling. The service could've been quicker, food was great though. read more

I remember this place being awesome. It's a shame that I apparently didn't write a rave review of them before, especially because this review will not be a rave. I have been there twice in the last week. Once for brunch, and once for a somewhat early dinner. The brunch was first so I'll talk about that visit first. I have had enough bloody marys recently that I have become a bit of a connoisseur, and I feel comfortable saying that though their bloodies are good, there are better to be had in Milwaukee, I ordered the traditional eggs benedict. Instead of the typical canadian bacon, they do it with a hunk of ham. Notice I said hunk. It's not a slice. Both the potatoes and (a more grievous sin) the eggs were overcooked. The service, while not great, was adequate. I figured that the brunch being overcooked was a fluke, and I was in the area of town where they are, so I figured I would try it for an early dinner. The service this time was pretty lousy. My dinner partner commented that the server didn't look like she wanted to be there. The burger I ordered was asked for medium, but I ca,e to the table well done. The egg they placed on top was with the yolk very nearly cooked through. I would have sent it back for a do-over, but the server was nowhere to be found. read more

Awesome. Simply awesome. So this weekend was probably my most successful in Milwaukee. I went to Food and Froth with my big sister and enjoyed some of the most stupendous food and drink I've ever had, and after it was all over we met with our delightful friends Charlie and Stephanie L. for a nightcap at Honeypie Cafe. I need it to be known that my experience at Honeypie could not have been any better. I've given them 4 stars only because I only had one beer, and one piece of pie...and when I assign 5 stars I want it to be because I really did my research and could not find a thing wrong with said event/establishment. By the time we got there (probably close to 10:30 or 11:00, the display case was pretty barren. I was still able to snatch a pie of coffee pie and a Clown Shoes Chocolate Sombrere (heavier chocolate stout). The pie was exceptional. First of all it was huge. I don't know if portion sizes are this big or if the bartender hooked us up because we were probably going to be the last customers of the night...either way...I was pleasantly surprised. The layer of whipped cream is thick and has this rich, almost caramel flavored sweetness to it. The coffee layer is only slightly heavier than the cream it rests beneath, but it packs a punch. It's light and smooth, savory and addicting. The combination of the two is unprecedented...it is truly a remarkable dish. The service was quick and the bartenders were personable. They were joking around with us and having a good time, they answered whatever questions we had in such a way that I never felt like we were imposing on them. I had a great time here. I can't wait to go back. read more

I've been here twice now; once for pie after dinner. The pie is really good! That part I can agree with. BUT my friend and I went here for breakfast last weekend. While the waitress was really nice, the service was SLOW, they were out of 10 different incredients, didn't add vegan sausage to my friend's dish, and didn't ask when I said I wanted fried eggs if they should be over easy or over hard (I assumed, and wrongfully so, they would be over hard). Yuck. As my friend said, "I typically don't like breakfasts I could easily (if not better) make myself." I couldn't agree more. Really unimpressive. BUT, the pie is good. read more

Be careful. They don't update their online menu. We ordered the $15 scallops over the phone and they charged us $19. And it's not only the prices that aren't updated. Some of the food posted online wasn't available when we called either. The lady tried to tell me their web guy doesn't work on the weekends but it's been the same for months. The food is not good enough to put up with the bad customer service and sloppy upkeep. read more

Good french toast. A little on the dry side but great portions and the pie looks delicious.

After a not so awesome experience last summer I stayed away, but I went back with some friends this weekend for brunch and was quite happy with the meal, the service, and the atmosphere. Sure, there are some space cadets who work here, but our servers this day were awesome, smart, caring, and nice. Excellent service all around. My brother had a burger which kicked butt (he said it was too much food!, but he ate it ALL!), and I had the pulled pork thing with the potatoes and egg on top. Whatever that was was like a breakfast party in a bowl. The sauce was yummy, and it just hit the spot. Tried a salted brownie pie and was also quite happy. The Bloody Mary with a chaser was solid even if it had a bit too much horse radish. Nice people help. Way better second time around. read more
