    S'mores donut
    Ashely V.

    I was at the Milwaukee Public Market today with a friend and had to stop at the pop up shop to try Sugar Cube Donuts. I've been hearing about them and seeing awesome pictures of them online, so today was my day. I was a little surprised to see they were averaging $4/donut, but they're pretty large and thought it would be worth a try. I ordered the s'mores donut and my friend ordered the sprinkles donut. I was really surprised when I bit into mine that it wasn't a traditional donut base, it's actually quite yeasty. The icing or glaze on top is super sweet and, I'm not really sure how to describe it, but it's a little over powering for the rest of the donut. My friend felt the same way about hers as well. These are certainly large enough to share with several people, I don't think I'd ever be able to eat a whole one by myself in one sitting. If these donuts were bite-sized and you could get maybe 4-6 pieces to a pack instead of one super large donut that would be awesome. It's certainly a fun donut stop for the novelty of it, but if I were going to buy donuts for the office or the weekend I'd rather go to a traditional bakery.

    I finally was able to snag a box of these pop up donuts! We preordered last weekend and pick up at the Kind Oasis was super easy. The donuts are flavorful without being cloyingly sweet. My favorites were the Peach, lemon poppyseed, and an afternoon tea donut. The puppy chow was okay but I'm not a huge fan of chocolate. Overall, if you can get your hands on some sugar cube donuts, DO IT! You won't regret it.

    Menu pic of said "Berry Blast" SugarCube Donut - gorgeous, right? Where can I get THAT one??

    Round Two! We had pre-ordered this box prior to checking them out last time. This box looked much better and very much like the photos they had posted on Instagram. How'd they taste? Not bad... Fruit Loops: stale chewy cereal. Maybe stay away from cereal on donuts? And whatever cereal that was it wasn't actual Foot Loops lol. Spicy Chai: zero flavor. Tasted like a plain glazed donut. I love chai. I have it every other day. This was no chai. Cinnamon Roll: the cute little cinnamon roll on top of the donut was hard and dry. But the donut itself was decent! Tasty cinnamon icing. PB&J: the best one! It was pretty wet inside but outside was intact and the flavors were excellent.

    This is a sugarbox of 3 of my most favorite donuts- matcha, chocolate and apple pecan

    Sugar cube donuts took me by surprise as to how awesome they are! They are hand made donuts with the wildest combo of flavors! A must try

    Pecan donut

    I got donuts for one of their pop ups at a hotel cafe. There was one employee running the stand and even though there was a line she made an effort to greet everyone making Conversation. I am not someone who goes looking for Sweets but when I get that craving once in A blue moon I'm eating sugar cubes donuts the donut boxes pure quality they don't skimp on ingredients every bite is as good as the next. The monkey bread and pecan donut are by far must haves and goes well with a latte. These donuts compliment coffee but are great stand-alone treats

We ordered a 12 pack of doughnut and were able to pick 4 flavors. The s'mores ones were amazing! We also really liked the puppy chow. While ordering, one niece picked out Bart's birthday cake and I said something to her like oh you picked those because we are celebrating your birthday. I didn't think much of it but after our doughnuts were delivered, staff asked her if she wanted powdered sugar or cinnamon sugar doughnuts to go for her birthday. She loved getting to leave with an extra treat. We had fun playing pinball while we waited and one of my nieces commented on how she really liked the vibe of the place. They both said the mini doughnut place was a highlight of their weekend with me.

The selection of donuts looked delicious so I placed an order for a six-pack of donuts. Got to pick out three different flavors. Wait time was a ridiculous but i gave them a break due to the high traffic from the event going on outside. When I finally got my order I had to laugh. These donuts were the size of donut holes. One bite donuts? No exaggeration, I paid a premium price for full size donuts and I all I got were bite size dough balls. I was mad as a Danzig at a Bulletboys concert. Don't waste your time with this place. Happy Dough Lucky is just happy to take your dough. No luck involved.

    Three friends and I booked a reservation two months in advance for Barnacle Bud's Pop-Up Supper…read moreClub. The only reservation we could get was 4:30PM but we were excited we were able to get in at any time. Because of the timing, the sun was setting over the water, which was really pretty to see. I got a little confused with where to enter the building and I guess I went in the wrong way because I walked down the dock and entered the back of the restaurant by the restrooms, lol. Barnacle Bud's had a cool decor vibe and moody lighting. Our waitress was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and you could tell she was very excited about the menu and the pop-up experience. She provided exceptional customer service- she went over the menu thoroughly, came back to check on us multiple times, and always refilled our water, which I always appreciate! To start, we ordered wine and the relish tray. Everything on the relish tray was a little too vinegary for me but most of the table enjoyed it. However, the four of us didn't finish it. It was pretty powerful with vinegar flavor. For an entree, I had the salmon with veggies and my friends ordered the lamb chops, carbonara, and a vegetarian friend ordered a plate of Bud's potatoes and veggies. The food was good but I thought mine was very salty. And I'm glad I ordered my sauce on the side. For dessert, the four of us shared the mousse, which had good flavor and texture. Also to note, there were up-charges for veggies, sauce was $3 extra, etc., so just pay attention to pricing if that's a concern for you. Overall, it was a unique experience and worth checking out.

I was expecting "standard" supper club dishes, which are awesome & was fully excited for, but what we got was a twist on the traditional! Every bit had so much flavor & the portion sizes were plentiful. 4 of us shared 2 apps, 1 salad, 3 entrees (with add-ons) & dessert. Plus a lovely bottle of wine & some pre-dinner cocktails. The restaurant was decked out for the holidays inside & out. It felt cozy & festive. The service was beyond...from the moment we walked thru the door, we felt welcomed & even appreciated for being there. The staff is amazing! If you have the chance to go...do not waiver!

    Food, service, and atmosphere were all fantastic!…read more We were greeted immediately when we walked in. The place was packed on a Saturday afternoon, so the greeter gave us some menus and let us know we could order and he'd find a table for us ASAP. We got to the counter and the cashier told us it would be a 45 minute wait. We accepted this and ordered anyway. We picked a curry, a noodle dish, and a Thai beer each. The cashier was very friendly. The original greeter found us a table almost immediately after we paid and mentioned the beer is especially nice over ice, so we took his recommendation. Beers came quickly, but food did take at least a half hour, as the cashier mentioned. Table and dining room were clean and nicely decorated with warm lighting and relaxing music. Bathrooms were also clean. Food was very good and flavorful. The portions were decent. We were full, ate most of our dishes, and didn't take anything home. The original greeter came back and checked on us while we were eating. Service was fantastic throughout the experience. The food was pricey, but aligns with other Thai restaurant prices in the area. Dishes were around $20. The whole experience was worth it. We will be returning!

The minute we walked in, a man sitting next to the hostess--who appeared to be part of the restaurant, not a customer--just stared at us. No greeting, no smile... just staring. The hostess also seemed a bit confused when we walked in. She asked if we had reservations; we said no. Then she asked if a high-top table was fine, as if the restaurant were packed. We agreed, assuming there would be a long wait for a regular table. But as she led us over, there were plenty of regular tables available. So right off the bat, the vibe wasn't particularly welcoming. As for the service, the waitress did a great job with the welcome and checked on us at a perfect pace. We also liked the decor--plenty of cute design elements that would make for great photos and draw people in. The menu was well done too: not overwhelming, just the right amount of variety in each category. Honestly, this part is why I gave the place more stars than I probably should have. As for the food, it was just okay for us--though that may have been due to what we ordered. There were only two of us, and we got three dishes: shrimp fried rice, beef chow fun, and kung pao chicken. We thought that would give us a good variety. The food had good flavor, but all three dishes tasted very similar. If you try these same dishes elsewhere, the flavors are usually more distinct. I do wish we had tried more of the appetizers and drinks--maybe that would have changed our rating a bit.
