Everything Steve the manager came to greet us, we had Pluto our Basset Hound. He brought him water with ice! Our waitress adorable full of smiles! This was an experience. The food was excellent! The ambiance was so relaxed refreshing from Illinois where everyone is in a hurry. We loved this place. Definitely worth coming and eating anytime and seeing the amazing experience of having a European meal a real one. read more

This year, we had our Easter brunch at Cafe Hollander in Brookfield. My daughter said it was super easy to make a reservation. We showed up a few minutes early and we were seated immediately. Everything we ordered was fantastic. My husband had a Bloody Mary... wooo doggy, I took a sip... it was so good. They let us know ahead of time that some of the food might come out at different times, and there might be a wait but neither of those things happened. Our food arrived at the same time and it didn't take long at all. So much stuff to look at... great place to celebrate a holiday, have brunch, grab a drink with friends or have a quick lunch. We will be back! read more

My husband and I went to eat here last night at 5 PM. We sat outside. I ordered the Luxembourg burger. My husband ordered the Sammy breakfast sandwich. The waitress right away asked him if he wanted a side? He then proceeded to ask for his choices and then order the side salad. When the bill came, we were shocked to see a three dollar up charge. My expectations of a waitress/restaurant is you explain to the customer what the sandwich does come with if anything and then explain up charges for additional sides. It was a tricky way for waitress to do it. Also, I'm a Hefeweizen beer drinker. And Café Hollander did not have one Hefeweizen on tap. Huge beer menu and not one. We even asked the waitress to double check with the bartender. read more

Cafe Hollander is a fun restaurant. The best part of the experience was our server, Isaiah. He was excellent. He was busy, but was very present with us, helpful, kind, and came by often to check in. I was excited to try the food, but honestly- it was just okay. The only thing that really stood out was the basil aioli, one of their many homemade sauces. They also have lots of beers on tap, many coming from other countries, which is very cool! Overall, this is a fun restaurant with a good ambiance, and we are glad we tried it, but the food we got did not impress. read more

Came here and met with family with grand children to have a send off dinner before we all went our ways to go home after vacationing. Our server, Paige, was pleasant and somewhat attentive, although we needed to flag her down for water refills during our meal. Overall, this is. A bit pricey for the quality and size of the food. It is in the sending mall area in Brookfield. My chicken club wrap was small and came with fries, but a wrap for $16.95 and only 5 inches long (cut in half) is certainly not inexpensive. The quiche with a side salad was dried out. They do have a separate gluten free menu, but most items are priced somewhat higher for the same size portion,but gluten free buns or prepared. read more

The service was good. My meal was not good. The vegetarian sausage wrap was ok. It was small and so was the portion of fries. It was greasy. After finishing it, I felt like i had a greasy film in my mouth. Something didn't agree with me and I did not feel well the next day. Someone else made the reservation. I would not recommend this place. read more

Nice spot. Went with work people for dinner. Got the salmon. Came with vegetables and potatoes. Everything was good. read more

Went for brunch on a Sunday. We hadn't been for at least a year possibly longer. In past service was always great. Today the expeditor literally threw our food on the table. The chicken on my salad was over cooked and stringy. Same for my husband's chicken wrap. The server came by once refilled my husband's drink but didn't offer to refill mine. (We both had soft drinks.) We probably will not return. read more

Good food. I have been here multiple times. Seating and service is always fine. Solid omelette and sweet potato fries but nothing special. read more

We both loved our meals. The Thai sweet chili sauce on the Turkey sandwich made it the perfect combo. My husband got the fish fry and mentioned it was one of the best he's had - the potato chip crust is a must. The cheese curds are definitely the best around - we ate too fast to take a picture I guess lol. The margarita is also delicious - I've ordered this several times now I think. We sat at the bar, service was quick and friendly. We came during March Madness and they had multiple TV's for us to watch. A lot of windows so it's very bright and inviting inside. read more

This place is casual and low effort but still has a sense of put together style. The food is the star of the show. Understated, with a wide variety of comfort foods to choose from. I ordered the Luxemburger. Herb garlic cheese spread, caramelized onions, pickles, arugula, mustard all nestled onto a brioche bun. I was a little nervous since I'm not the biggest mustard fan, but I decided to just trust the process on this one. All the flavors went well together and complimented each other perfectly. Typically, I do not finish burgers. I end up with 4 bites left and quit. Not on this one. The flavor was so good I just kept going back for more. For my side, I upgraded to the sweet potato fries. They were the perfect ratio of sweet and soft inside while crispy and salty outside. Another item that usually doesn't get finished but my plate was empty till our waitress came back. Speaking of, she kept our glasses full and checked in frequently enough to keep us satisfied without being overbearing. This spot is fairly laid back and relaxed, but it's still the perfect that casual night out. read more

Nice variety menu of drinks, appetizers, salads, entrees, and sandwiches. I liked the variety of Octoberfest beers available on tap. The cheese curds with the tangy ranch sauce were amazing. For my meal, I had the jambalaya. Nice portion size and just enough spice but not overwhelming. I also ordered the tomato bisque soup. It was flavorful and smooth. Service was ok but a bit slow but overall I would visit again. read more

The ambiance was really nice. Social and not too quiet. I enjoyed the look and feel of the place. We ordered the meatloaf and the grilled cheese beef toasti which were both really good! The mushrooms and gravy on the meatloaf gave it a nice flavor that was different from your average meatloaf. The grilled cheese was also delicious and the beef was very tender. We ordered it with sweet potatoes fries which were VERY good! We also tried the jambalaya and that was also delicious, had a little spice but more of a peppery spice than a spiced spice. The food and service did not disappoint. Definitely a place to try if you're in the area. Parking was slightly confusing when we first arrived though lol read more

Love it here! The food, service and ambiance is wonderful. Thanks to the Cafe Hollander team!

This needs to be known that this was the best veggie burger of my life. Genuinely so insanely good. Good sweet potato fries too. A+ decor, A+ ambiance, so many seating options. The greens on the salad could be chopped a bit more, they were very stringy due to the nature of the plants. I will yearn for this veggie burger for the rest of my days. read more

Came for dinner to celebrate my 8 yr old son's birthday. We sat in our favorite booth and the service was on point as always. Haillie was attentive and warm, making the evening special for us and the birthday boy. We make our way out here pretty often, because our kids like it and the food is always tasty. We shared cheese curds (a staple) and I had the salmon salad which I love. Cooked perfectly and showed up fast. We love this spot because it's high energy without being "loud" and the staff are so nice. read more

Lovely (and festive) atmosphere and good service. My party enjoyed their food. I had the gluten-free turkey Reuben and it was ok...there was not a lot of flavor in it. But I shouldn't be surprised...it was GF and dairy free (no cheese). I would to add a veggie or put pickles in it to make it more flavorful. I like their rewards program. And it was great to see that they have trivia night! read more

A group of 10 visited this establishment on a Saturday evening with a 5:15 reservation. The restaurant was busy but not overly so, we were seated promptly on arrival. The restaurant has two levels and we were seated upstairs, for anyone with a problem climbing stairs should be alert and ask for seating on the main level when making reservations. Seating was comfortable, tables were appointed with condiments, linen napkins and small flower arrangements. Service was prompt and friendly, and we were offered the choice of how we would be billed. Didn't turn out quite the way we asked but it wasn't a big deal. Water was provided without having to ask for it, a nice courtesy not always extended today. Drink orders were taken and took a little longer to arrive than one might have expected. Prices for cocktails and mixers went from about $10-15. Appetizers were ordered, frites, cheese curds and a couple cups of soup. They arrived in a reasonable amount of time, were plentiful and were enjoyed by all. These came in at between $8-14 depending on the item. Dinner orders were taken at about 6:10 and arrived surprisingly fast considering there were 10 meals ordered. I didn't get a chance to talk with everyone about their meals but those that had burgers were ok with their sandwiches. A few people ordered meat loaf and were disappointed with that meal, describing it as bland and dry with too little gravy. I had the mini sliders, three burgers with cheddar cheese and crispy onions. These were ok but a little more cheese and onions would have made them better. Overall the meal for me was better than my last experience at this restaurant. For an appetizer, cocktail, soda and sliders my bill with tax and tip came in at about $50. read more

The food was great however the customer service was not. We had griffin as our waiter and were treated poorly. He was rude and rarely came by the table to check on us. We sat with dirty plates for 15 minutes. He handed my friend and I scolding hot plates with no warning. Ambiance was good they had a very nice outdoor area. read more

Came here for breakfast on a Sunday. Overall, it has a cute vibe and we sat on the rooftop which was nice. We got the cheese curds, donuts and Cajun omelette. The curds and omelette were good. However, the donuts didn't live up to the hype and the potatoes with the omelette tasted like they had been fried 4-5 times. They were hard, overly crunchy and it was challenging to taste the actual potato. read more

We come to Cafe Hollander on most trips back to Milwaukee (my family loves this spot). The space is really cool, food is good, & their drink selection is large. This time, however, we came on a Sunday around 11am. The restaurant wasn't super busy & we were sat immediately. Our server came over and took our orders fairly quickly, which was nice. Once we had our food, though, we didn't see our server again until he breezed by & asked if we were ready for the check. The table across from us had a different server & were checked on regularly, had their coffees refilled, & were given water glasses without having to ask for them, so it was a really stark contrast to the service we had. Service aside, the food also wasn't amazing this time around. I had the Avocado Smorrebrod, which is basically avocado toast. The toast itself was pretty good, I like that you can get 1 piece of toast instead of the standard order of 2, so I got a side of breakfast potatoes. The plate felt as if it had been sitting for a while, which is a shame because we waited so long for our food to even arrive. All in all, this was a disappointing trip to Cafe Hollander. If we come back to this location, hopefully next time is better! read more

I've come here for some work dinners and we've sat both inside and out. The western facing patio is just beautiful...you won't even know you are in Wisconsin. The service was pretty good and the food was standard lowlands fair. The Mac n cheese is always a winner. I didn't really spend any time downstairs but with a bar and additional dining space it always look lively read more

I live very close to this location and really want it to be better. They do some things well, like offering a unique selection of beers with a lot of imports. However the beer prices are pretty high. The food is also inconsistent, during my last visit I ordered a pretzel breakfast sandwich which was quite tasty. I ordered a Mac and cheese upgraded side, which didn't come out until I asked for it, my sandwich came with fries instead which were cold. When the Mac and cheese did arrive, it was also cold and wasn't very good. I planned on having a second beer, but the server didn't check on us the entire time we are until I only had a single bite of sandwich remaining. I've visited this location about 5 times because it's so close, but the service is almost always poor. This place has so much potential. read more

Always a consistent experience at Cafe Hollander. Love the drink/food pairing options. And you cannot go wrong with soup/sandwich combo - of course select tomato soup and perfectly grilled cheese sandwich accompaniment. Your tummy will thank you! read more

Had a wonderful experience here this afternoon. Our first time here having recently arrived to the area for my husband's travel nursing assignment. Excellent service out on the patio from Katherine. Thanks! Love that the outdoor space allowed for our dog to join. Very extensive beer menu plus an impressive cocktail menu including several Bloody Mary iterations. We didn't have a full meal, but based on the menu quality we would love to be back again. We enjoyed the basket of cheese curds - very generous portion. Comes with sriracha ranch and we added an additional sauce of charred poblano buttermilk. I wanted to bottle up and bring both sauces home. SO DELICIOUS and house made. Hubby tried two beers and both were winners for him. My bloody - I tried the cilantro infused one - came with a "chaser" of a draft beer. Nice little touch. read more

Great vibes here and love the atmosphere of this location. They have awesome options for outdoor seating. It is the perfect spot to hang with friends or grab a drink after shopping. The sweet potato fries with garlic dipping sauce. Chefs kiss! That salt and creamy flavor! I will say I tend to prefer their lunch/dinner over their brunch options. Brunch is just meh. However the sandwiches and appetizers again are great to share with friends. Had the seasonal margarita and that was delicious! Fun spot to meet friends! read more

Great food and service. Nice to able to park underground and take elevator right to their rear entrance.

sooooooo delicious!!!! i absolutely loved my sconnie burger. very friendly server as well. super super cool decor and it was a beautiful day so the windows were open. definitely would return! i hope to go back soon! there is outdoor seating in both floors of the building. i loved my sconnie burger but it was three meals for me - totally would be a good meal to split and save some money! the cheese curds were fantastic as well. we got a spicy ranch dip (can't remember the name) and it was delicious. kid friendly as well (we went for lunch and there weren't a ton of people, it was about 1 pm i believe). they have a great selection of drinks and will make mocktails! definitely look over the extensive drink menu, there are a few exclusives! read more

I planned an event (baby shower) to take place in the Four Seasons Room of this location, and although I was extremely busy with other 'life events' during the planning stages, Molly in the catering department was understanding and patient with receiving my responses and food / drink selections etc. On the day of the event, I was feeling a bit nervous because it's not as if you get a chance to practice setting up the 'vision' you have of your event decorations etc., but I have to say, everything turned out just as I had envisioned, and we had an absolutely OUTSTANDING experience. The food was great, our servers Danica and Ally were absolutely THE BEST, and their smiles, professionalism, attention to the Mom to be, and all of our guests - was unmatched. I was extremely impressed, and of course, as the host, it was great to receive feedback from so many of the guests, that they were equally impressed with how the entire event flowed, how great the food was, and that Danica and Ally were super attentive. Many thanks to the entire staff of Cafe Hollander of Brookfield, for an incredible experience. read more

Decided to try Cafe Hollander again for breakfast this time. Got two eggs Benedicts and pancakes to go. Didn't mess up the pancakes however worst X-Menedict ever tried out potatoes ridiculous No hollandaise sauce anywhere to be seen and diced ham that was hard to recognize from the dried out potatoes. Thanks for poached correctly that was it very disappointed again in this restaurant. Should have examined food. Very disappointed for a Mary expensive country for breakfast/brunch!! George Webb's is much better. This is my fourth time at this restaurant and have not had a good meal yet!!! Oh by the way just looked at my pancakes and they're burned unbelievable. read more

The atmosphere and decor is cool. The food is just okay and pricey especially considering the small portion size. Had the Asian Beef Bowl. Flavor was good but the portion size was very small with hardly any beef. Hardly a meal. My wife had the chicken wrap which she orders often at other restaurants. This was comparatively the smallest wrap for the money we have seen. Really marginal all the way around. They have an awesome beer and cocktail menu, but be prepared to pay for it. The food menu is interesting for sure but we would not go out of my way to eat here. We keep trying but are always disappointed. read more

It's always a great place to stop and grab a bite to eat, even if you're looking to get comfortable for a while and hang out. As a warning, it can get pretty noisy, so expect to talk a bit louder when you go during peak times. Drinks have always been delicious, and I appreciate the consistency of their quality. Whether you love getting beer or spirits, bloody marys, etc., they've got you covered. They make a few of their own cocktails that are worth trying if you're up for a little bit of an adventure for the taste buds. We come here with family, friends, kids, you name it. Everyone finds something that they love, regardless of what their preferences are. I would certainly recommend their cheese curds. I'm not even any kind of a cheese curd expert, but paired with the sauce they give you, it's a hit with everyone who's ever tried them. You can buy some apparel here, and they've got outdoor seating, even heated! Service has always been nice; we don't encounter rudeness or people being short on patience. We commonly pick up burgers, wraps, cheese curds, and drinks. Also, the breakfast items that are served constantly are really excellent. The combinations of ingredients give it the right amount of "pop" when you're taking it down. Overall, it's worth the wait when there is a wait. Personally, I find that their wait times are pretty inaccurate in a good way. We always get seated well before their predictions when the place is really busy. Keep that in mind if you're on the fence about waiting for a table. read more
