chai lattes
Scott W.

Been to Ally's several times before. Mostly for breakfast. This time I met a friend for a breakfast. It's a nice location, an upscale stripmall. with a good size parking lot. Lots of places to sit, in the main dining room, outside on the patio, or at the bar area. Plenty of natural light coming through the large windows. Although the breakfast menu doesn't have pages of items that see at some diners, they have all the most popular items including sandwiches, wraps, omelettes and avocado toast. You order at the counter, get a number, and they bring you the food. Easy peasy! Got here around 8am, and they were starting to get busy. Super friendly staff that were helpful with our orders. We ordered the Avocado Toast (with an fried egg), and a veggie omelet. It didn't take long for the order to hit our table. Nice portions, good flavors, and the omelette was plenty hot. We also got a couple of chai lattes. Got them in mugs, with extra foam. And they added a sprinkle of cinnamon to make it special :) While we were eating we got plenty of attention, checking on our meal, and clearing dirty dishes. We stayed for nearly 2 hours, and never felt like we had to rush out. Great spot for coffee, breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

BLT Wrap w/Fresh Apples
John F.

Fresh, fast and really good food. Choice of Full Service or Deli Counter ordering. Food is delivered to your table even if you choose to order at the counter. My BLT Wrap was awesome and I loved the choice of fresh apples vs. Kettle Chips. My Chicken Noodle Soup was also very tasty and the cup was a generous portion. (However it was so good I wish I would have orders a bowl!)

I stopped in here quickly to pick up breakfast and was wowed by all the locals inside. The place was packed and had a ton of pickup orders. I ordered there and waited, but my order didn't take long at all. The food (breakfast burrito) was fabulous and the coffee was very tasty. Great spot for breakfast and I bet lunch is amazing as well!

We're rarely in this area, but happened to be over the weekend and my husband noted that Ally's is a great spot. We decided to give it a go for Saturday lunch. He wasn't wrong, it's nice here! Not just your average deli. The restaurant is well-kept, the atmosphere is calm and enjoyable, and the food is quality. Plys, I'm a fan of order-from-the-counter casual spots. They were quick to take our order and equally as fast to bring out the food. I was starving and very excited to tuck into a big sammie, which is just what I got with the Dilled Chicken Salad Sandwich. It had a really great flavor and wasn't too mayo-y like some chicken salads tend to be. Also the rye bread was so squishy and delicious. It seemed fresh baked. My husband really enjoyed his Chicken Capri sandwich as well, which came off the panini menu. There are a few options for sides, like chips and salsa, apple slices, or kettle chips. Our meals were delicious and worth the price. However, we also got the avocado toast for our son, and it was really just sub-par. Something we likely wouldn't pay $10+ again. I would undoubtedly return here to try some of the many, many other options on their menu. Honestly so many delicious sounding dishes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner!

I stopped here for breakfast on my way out of town to start my morning. The place is in a strip mall with plenty of parking. The restaurant has two sides with the bar area having table service and the cafe having walk up to the counter service so I went to the bar side. The place has a music decor with music memorabilia and instruments on the walls. I would order a Bloody Mary and the village breakfast. The Bloody Mary was average with a cube of cheese, pickle and a bacon strip. The village breakfast is 2 eggs, choice of meat, hash browns and toast. My food came quickly and I noticed that this is one of those places that gives you one piece of toast cut in half so my second egg is useless because I can only make one toast sandwich, when did we move away from 2 pieces of toast that I'm noticing in the last couple years. The eggs were perfect sunny side up. The wheat toast was nicely toasted. The extra crispy hash browns with added onion were delicious. The sausage patties were horrible because they were so bland and had no pork sausage flavor and maybe they were a turkey sausage but not good at all.

Chicken Noodle Soup ???

Second visit here and an okay experience. I had the half wrap and soup. The wrap was small but was decent. The Chicken Noodle Soup was unfortunately the worst I have ever had, did not even eat it. I'd recommend a new recipe possibly for the restaurant or not recommend this to others. It also would be nice if there were some options for kids with protein like grilled chicken or a burger. I feel as though there is a quite a bit of room for improvement.

Leanne's Breakfast Special Waffle
Jerilyn A.

I usually go to Ally's bistro for the amazing clam chowder but today I decided to try it for breakfast. Any place that has a waffle meal is good in my book! I ordered the Leanne's special and it came out pretty quickly. The food could have been warmer but overall it was a solid breakfast meal for the price. The waffle was fluffy but still had a bit of crispness to it and the bacon was good and cooked well. It looks like the breakfast menu has a bunch more options and they also do lunch and dinner here so I would definitely come back to try more. It's a good casual place to go and grab food.

Menu is slightly different from it's sister cafe in Wauwatosa Service is much better in Wauwatosa in my opinion

BBQ Turkey Panini
Han J.

Ally's Bistro is my favorite spot for a quick lunch whenever I'm in the area. My usual order is the BBQ Turkey Panini. The staff is friendly and food comes out fairly quickly. It is a great local staple!

Just a mug of tea with flat warm milk. So this time I took my drink back and talked to the barista. I showed her the drink, and she acknowledged that it definitely was not very creamy or foamy. But here is the part that really floored me. She said that they use an "auto steamer" (which is a steaming and frothing device used by larger coffee chains) and that there was nothing they could do about this situation. Seriously? They then just looked at me with blank stares. Totally bizarre for a small local shop that considers itself to be unique and focused on quality.

Offered to warm it up, and I said definitely yes. It took a few minutes for the drink to be ready, which means they let the tea steep properly. When it got delivered to my table, I was pleasantly surprised by the latte art in the foam. I have never had a barista give me that special treatment and was thankful. The cinnamon roll was warm, gooey, and delicious. Definitely a place that I would return to.

This particular location has plenty of space for different size groups. You can choose between the downstairs area, an upstairs space, or a nicely appointed outdoor patio. The staff are consistently friendly and helpful. The baristas are usually high quality, but occasionally you will get someone who is either in training or using their own techniques. Today was a good example of that challenge. My usual London Fog Tea Latte was a surprise. You can check out the pictures. Whoever made it steeped the tea in the cup and then poured the steamed milk over the top, instead of removing the steeper and then adding the milk. No worries. I went back and they were happy to fix it. The reworked one was a bit cooler than I like, but the texture was much better. The bakery here is good too. There is a nice selection, though it does not taste as fresh as if it were made on site. I always ask to have bakery items warmed up, which I think improves the taste.

I ordered a bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit and ended up buying a loaf of cinnamon chip bread with a container of salted cinnamon butter too. The biscuit itself was very good and sort of scone like in its texture. I enjoyed the garlic herb spread and wish there was more of it on my biscuit in particular. The egg, cheese, and bacon layers were pretty thin, but the egg was at least wider than the biscuit itself. When I entered, the employee working the counter asked if I wanted to try any of their breads. The cinnamon chip bread is the one that interested me the most so I went with that. Instead of just a small piece, she gave me a sizeble slice and spread some salted cinnamon butter on it too. Obviously this was an attempt to sell me on a product that I hadn't intended on buying and good for them, cause it worked. I happily bought a loaf of the cinnamon chip bread and a container of the salted cinnamon butter to bring home and share with the family. There are other flavors I'd like to try, but I don't feel like I could ever go wrong with the cinnamon chip.

Like a Creme Brulee (which I love) it has a layer of caramelized sugar on top. The taste and texture was amazing. The Brown Sugar Tea, was very good, but very sweet. I skipped the boba part (tapioca pearls), but might try it next time. The place was quiet and cozy. Some other customers came in and were either working or having quiet conversations. Great environment to bring a book and read. I'll be back, and this time with a friend.
