I've driven by this place dozens, maybe even hundreds, of times, but had never stopped in. Part of…read morethe issue, at least for me, is that it's tucked into a strip mall behind a hill, so you really can't see it unless you're looking for it. The driveway is also a bit inconvenient to access. This time, I remembered and decided to stop in and check out the bakery. They also have a small coffee bar with a few café tables, so you can enjoy your bakery treats with a hot beverage. How great is that? Besides my drink and bakery item, I also picked up a four-pack of cupcakes that looked excellent. They had plenty to choose from, so it was a difficult decision. They also offer some gluten-free items, and I chose a Caramel Peanut Butter Cookie that was sweet and chewy. Food: They had an amazing assortment of fresh baked goods. There was a large selection of cupcakes, bars, croissants, scones, and more. I decided on a Chocolate Chip Scone with a mocha, which turned out to be an absolutely terrific combination. The mocha had a nice balance of coffee and chocolate, along with plenty of whipped cream on top. The scone had a great texture, with just the right amount of chocolate chips for sweetness. Next time, I will ask for the mocha to be a bit hotter. Service: I received a friendly greeting and a sincere smile from the barista/server. She did a great job explaining the bakery options and served my mocha in a large china mug. She checked in to see how I liked the food and drink and was exceptionally friendly the entire time. I was also offered a sample of the Black Forest Cupcake, which was delicious. Thanks, Kathy. Atmosphere: It's a large bakery operation, and you can see into the work area, which gives the impression of a high-quality operation. The café seating area is near the entrance, with lots of natural sunlight coming through the windows. I was the only customer there at the time, so it was very quiet and relaxing. So glad that I finally stopped in. I will definitely be back to try more of their delicious items.

This visit was…read morespecifically for bakery items, and that is when I learned that I have apparently been enjoying Periwinkle desserts all along. Their production facility is next door, but the baked goods are sold through Rochester Deli. I also learned that the deli owner's daughter runs the bakery. I came in hoping to pick up a few cupcakes and possibly a small round cake. There was only one cupcake option available, a Boston Cream, which did look good. Unfortunately, there were no cakes available, so I struck out there. I did grab a couple of the peanut butter cookies half dipped in chocolate, which are always a hit at my house. The staff member who helped me apologized for the limited selection, but there was not much they could do. Overall, I really enjoy their cookies, bars, and cake slices, and I will definitely be back for some of their regular items.

This is arguably the best breakfast sandwich in Milwaukee! The bagel was toasted perfectly and…read morestill somehow very soft and cheesy on the inside. And came with eggs, veggies, tomato slice, two types of cheese. The flavors are incredible, and the cheese is perfectly melted. You get to pick the type of bagel you want, and I believe all the bagels are made in house. The service is quick understanding that your food is made to order so you might have to wait five or so minutes. The weight is absolutely worth it! They have a variety of iced coffees and I have tried a couple that all live up to the hype! The place itself is small and very cute so you can sit and work or study if needed. Will definitely be back!

First time here. Came with a friend. It's a cute place. The exterior is painted white brick with a…read morefloral mural on the south side. There is a rooftop patio that gets you off street level, and on a nice day you can enjoy the sun and fresh air (unless they are cooking something in the oven, and you get the amazing smells that are coming out of the vents). Inside there are several small tables or a counter with seats that face out the front window. The inside design is bright and friendly. Was excited to see all the amazing looking pastries, cookies, and rolls in the case. So with all this goodness in mind, I was a little taken aback by the greeting I got from the male cashier/barista. He appeared grumpy and curt. One of the things I asked for (and I always do) is extra foam with my London Fog Tea Latte. He just flat out said it couldn't be done (because they use a concentrate and not tea bags), but I know that's not the case and have had that before. Now, if you are reading this, you might be thinking, "get over it." However, it was my first time here, and the exchange between us was very strained. After ordering my London Fog, with an amazing looking Apricot Almond Scone, we grabbed a small table. After a little wait, they brought my beverage, and it was very good, and it had extra foam! Nice job! However, I had asked to have my scone warmed up, and it never came. I could actually see it sitting on the kitchen counter, and I asked someone if they could bring it out, which they apologized for. The scone was as amazing as it looked -- warm, nice texture, with almonds and icing on top. There is a lot to like about this place. Great atmosphere, with excellent products. However, the service that I got on this particular (first) visit was not great. I would stop again to see if it was any better the next time. This could easily go from a 4 to 5 star review :) P.S. Everyone can have a bad day. However, when I checked out some other reviews, I noticed a few others that mentioned the service, and I wonder if this is something that needs to be attended to?

Listen. My youngest son has been waxing poetic about the coffee at Dunkin' for years. And, I've…read moreignored and mostly rolled my eyes and probably muttered something like, 'kids! psh!'. Then I was in an airport and it was the only coffee option and ya girl needed coffee like someone stranded in the desert needs water. It was an absolute necessity. So, I ordered one of their seasonal lattes, thinking--let's hope I can get through this to get the caffeine flowing. But, wait... It was actually pretty good. So, I got back to Milwaukee and insisted my husband also try one of their seasonal lattes the week before Christmas. He tried to ignore and definitely rolled his eyes. And, may have muttered something like, 'seriously?! psh!' Then we stopped by here. We both ordered one of their seasonal lattes (yum!) and I got a breakfast sandwich (also yum!) and my husband got some sort of egg bites. There's no feeling more absurd than clunky-ordering at a well known chain where everyone there assumes you must know the drill. Because, why wouldn't you? It's Dunkin' after all?! We did not know the drill. But, I digress. Overall, it was a fine experience and definitely good to know that Dunkin' is an option when I'm out of town or at an airport and other local options aren't available. Or, really, just an option occasionally, Because, the coffee was good, my friends. And, my son is gloating. Get to it!

I don't think it's fair to judge the place based on how they handle Door Dash. DD and DD are…read moredefinitely an imperfect pairing. From what I've seen, the employees here are fine, the problems are all the way Dunkin' who-no-longer-has-donuts-to-their-name is run. First and most important for our planet, they insist on disposable everything, even for people having coffee in. If you bring in your own cup, they will waste one of theirs to "measure." Lots of unnecessary unrecyclable plastic. The place is relatively clean in front, but you can easily see in the back that they don't regularly wash hands, wear hair covering, mask up (but they will God Bless each other when sneezing, American Christians baffle me), or avoid putting fingers inside cups. These shortcomings are most certainly not unique to this location, or even for coffee places in general. The coffee here is better than McDonalds, Starbucks, or Kwik Trip which are your other nearby choices.

Fries were crispy and crunchy. Onion ring batter was light and airy though a bit greasy. Pot pie was very heavy. Lots of cream in the filling and lard in the crust. Comes without a top crust or pie pan below. An abundance of filling, mostly potatoes and carrots. Minimal chicken. Could've had some flavor. But overall it was pretty good. Patty melt was also good. But menu offers it with American cheese rather than the typical Swiss, though they made the substitution on request. Steak sandwich was cooked properly. When delivered, they thought it was a burger. Be aware, if ordering ice water, you'll be charged $2 for a bottle of water without warning. Sodas are by the can and $3 each. They won't split a check. Split plates get charged $3.50. Desserts are expensive and there are no prices posted in the cases. Will definitely try again though.

They did ask to see evidence of the order. I then ask for a cup of hot water. I had just arrived at Dunkin from a 40 min walk in 15 degree weather, feeling like 6 degree with the wind chill. And though not cold from the brisk walk, was thirsty. That would be a $1 charge for the water they said. Same for cold water. It should be noted that there was no extra charge for napkins, Wi-Fi, or bathrooms. They even have convenient electrical outlets free for use. So be sure to BYOW. (Edit: On my way out after submitting my review, they were able to provide water (anyway I would like it) at no change if I provided the container, which I did, having a water bottle on hand.) No doubt policy, and maybe systemic, but just leaves a bad after taste. Relatively clean, this time smell was ok, but been to this location before when there was a strong burnt smell in the air that persisted at least for my length of stay, 15 minutes.
