    Fried chicken sandwich & fries
    David C.

    As a Milwaukee native (born & raised) now living in Cali, this place feels so much like Milwaukee food culture in the best ways. And their pie game is INSANE. Service was impressively on point. The host had the perfect mix of professional service and local chit chat. Here's what my mom and I split for lunch: Fried chicken sandwich w fries: Crispy chicken thigh and the harissa sauce gives some flavor. The pickled daikon cuts the richness. Fries surprised us as the MVP of this dish. Spinach artichoke dip: Super rich and flavorful. The goat cheese adds tang and depth. Crostinis were good, but - the fries as a vehicle. Trust me. House salad: We got this because we were guilty for ordering the Artichoke Dip and Fried Chicken. And it turned out to be much needed balance to this meal. Milwaukee Mud Pie: The reason people talk about Honeypie. Chocolate maxxing at its finest. Mega fluffy top and crunchy cookie base. Top 5 pie in my life. Unsolicited, I tell people about this pie. It's that good. NEXT TIME: Chicken pot pie looked sooo good. Will definitely try!

    I love the vibe of this place. It's cute and cozy and makes you want to eat comfort food! My cousin and I recently came here for a quick dinner. We both had the Chicken and Biscuit pie. It was good although the biscuit was really huge. I love the crusty top, but maybe could use a little more of the stew part of it. She loved it and pretty much finished the whole thing. Service was fast and friendly. Great recommendations, so I want to come back when I have more time and more room for dessert! Oh yeah - don't forget to peruse the little shop area in the front of the restaurant. My cousin found some great Christmas gifts for her daughters and her friends - all locally made!

    Went for lunch before my flight out of MKE. The reviews were spot on! I had the Friday Fish Fry and some of best breading I've eaten! The main reason for the review was the Coconut Key Lime Pie. Your diabetes will thank you. Get it.

    Pie pie pie!

    Admittedly, I am not a huge pie person (I know, I know...) but when I come here, all of that goes out of the window. When I come to Honeypie, not only do I have a difficult time choosing just one but I love every single bite of whatever I choose! The selection is always epic, between fruit pies, chocolate pies and unique flavors of the week/ season. This visit I chose the lemon blueberry because it was the end of summer and wanted something fruity and I wasn't sure this summery flavor would be available if I were to visit in the fall or winter months. Of course, it was perfect. Crust was light and flaky with exploding blueberry and lemon flavor in each bite. Although I came here for pie after dinner, I somehow had room to finish every last crumb of my pie. I've also been here for brunch (bar service) where nothing was less than perfect and exactly what I would hope for in my brunch experience. The bar staff is also fun, friendly and speedy, no matter when you're here. Honeypie is one of my favorites and should actually visit more to taste more of the pie flavors I drool over when I do visit!

    Tried Honeypie for breakfast with friends and had a great experience! We came on a Saturday around 10am and only had a 15-20 min wait. The food was amazing- my friends said it was "one of the best breakfast burritos ever". I love their coffee and also enjoyed my ham/egg croissant breakfast sandwich- lots of flavor! The wait staff was extremely kind to us and very attentive, which I appreciated! Overall a very cute vibe. Not pictured below, but we tried a slice of their specialty honey pie which was SO good! Very different than any pie I've had before so would definitely recommend trying it out. Definitely will be coming back :)

    Love love love all things Honeypie Pies. Stopped here a few weeks ago to celebrate my birthday, our new tradition. Sat at the counter and the staff was friendly and engaging. The cream pies are always on point. My fav is the black bottom banana cream pies. Don't ask what it is. Just get here and try it. They also host pie making classes out of a different bay view kitchen so they will even teach you their craft. It is all a super enjoyable experience.

    Beautiful restaurant experience at Honeypie Cafe. The front bar area is gorgeous with a true cafe vibe. Art and decor surrounding the dining area is also very cool to be around. My party and I stopped in for a quick lunch and had a great time. Friendly service and good food made our day! Had the chorizo melt special which was fantastic! Others in our group were pleased with the omelette and mac and cheese as well!

    Chilaquiles
    Karla M.

    Excellent brunch! Would highly recommend to any one looking for a cozy spot. The place is so lively with all the unique decorations. It was nice to be seated immediately, I would recommend being early as it gets pretty busy. Have been here twice and I've only tried their brunch, but everything has been delicious! My favorite is the Chilaquiles and the Nutella pie

    What a vibe!!! This place has such an adorable cafe/diner atmosphere. It is fun, welcoming, and cozy. The service was friendly and quick. They offer comfort foods - highly recommend the burger (SO juicy and flavorful) and the Pesto chicken salad sandwich (so so fresh and full of flavor) . The fries were crispy. The side salad was so fresh, and I loved the ranch! It wasn't super creamy and they didn't drown the salad in dressing. As far as pies, you have to get one! Our group got the strawberry rhubarb, salted caramel, mixed berry, cookies and creme, and chocolate and we loved them all! Highly recommend coming here.

    Breakfast Casserole and Lavender Cream
    Alano V.

    Came here by myself and sat at the bar. Got their Lavender Cream iced coffee with oatmilk--so delicious! Then their breakfast casserole--quite good! Would have liked it with a bit more gravy cause the biscuit was so thick but overall pretty good. It was very modern inside and had a chill vibe to it. I had a really great waiter and spent barely any time waiting as they were quick to close me out ! Would definitely come back when I'm feeling some breakfast food

    Made yet another trip to Honeypie, this time for lunch. It has yet to disappoint! The macaroni and cheese was gooey, creamy, and delicious. The additions of the bacon, toasted bread crumbs, and ribboned green onion really made the dish dynamic -- plenty of textural interest that you don't always get with your run-of-the-mill mac and cheese. At $18 it was a little pricey for an entreé, and though it was delicious, I might try something else in the future. The Bay View Breeze mocktail was to die for. The flavor combination of pineapple, ginger, lime, and mint worked exquisitely. Once again, a little pricey at $7 for just a mocktail, but I might just catch myself ordering it again. For dessert we went with the salted honey pie, per the recommendation of our server, and it was hands down the best pie I have ever had. The custardy filling was held together by a perfectly buttery and flaky crust. The brûléed top added depth to contrast the sweetness and the whipped cream was just the right touch to round it all out. Our server Rin (Ryn?) was spectacular. They were always attentive and friendly and knew the menu well enough to offer some top notch suggestions. Honeypie Cafe is not cheap, but you really are paying for quality. Both the interior and the patio seating make for an ambient experience and I've never had a bad server. Be prepared to spend upwards of $50 (before tax and tip) for two people. And whatever you do, don't skip out on dessert. The pie truly is amazing and worth the $9/slice price tag.

    Wow I have not been here since they moved to a new space and apparently that is already 5 years ago now! The new space is open and spacious and has a great vibe. The bar is open and bright. Honestly would've sat there if I didn't go with my family. I ordered my usual - pork fries and pie. The pork fries hit the spot as usual although they now serve it in a bowl where it used to be on a plate. The is impacts the longevity of the fries crispyness. Still just as dense and heavy and plenty for a meal on its own. I also has the breakfast casserole with my nephew and wow that was flavorful and heavy too. Be prepared to take food home here! The gravy in the casserole was delicious and the biscuit was not dry. Wish the ratio was a bit less biscuit though. Pies are always good no specific notes except get yourself a slice.

    There is typically a wait (20+ minutes) over the weekend for brunch, and to combat this, they have coffee at the front you can enjoy before you are seated. They also sell merch and other items (e.g. cookbooks, kitchen utensils, honey, etc.) at the front. The interior is cozy and best suited for groups of 2 or 4. We ordered their biscuit to share, and I ordered the breakfast casserole and my partner ordered the chicken and French toast. Overall, the service was friendly and the food was delicious!

    **July 2025: Wednesday Lunch Visit**…read more While I was researching iconic food in Wisconsin I came across an item called Butter Burger which sounded so decadent and delicious. My friend and I were only exploring Milwaukee for a day so we wanted to make sure that we picked a good spot to try this region favorite. AJ Bombers came up consistently ranked on top for really great burgers. We came on a weekday so parking was pretty easy, but it is metered street parking. The restaurant is located at the corner of a large building and since we arrived right at opening we were seated right away. We ordered the following -Cheese Curds $9 - These were delicious. Nice and crispy, almost had an airfried texture to it so it tasted healthier than others that I've tried -Bomb Butter Burger $14 - The meat was very juicy and overall a good burger -Milwaukee Burger $12.50 - This was a fantastic burger and I think I preferred this to the Bomb Butter Burger. The flavors were more balanced IMHO -Tater Tots and Fries: The burgers all came with a side and I enjoyed both! They were freshly fried and served hot. The tots made me feel really nostalgic since those were things I remember eating growing up. The unfortunate news is that this restaurant despite all the accolades will be closing later in 2025. It's served Milwaukee for 16 years and while I'm bummed that they'll be closing their doors later this year I'm glad that I got enjoy one of Milwaukee's best. If you get a chance to check them out their decor also has a lot of personality.

I haven't been in years, but it was sad to see that they don't give out peanut like they used to and they were not all over the floor. There was a singular waitress there but she was nice and checked in on us. I ordered the Milwaukee Burger. I loved the onions on it and added tomato to it. I thought the burger itself was ok. Not too much flavor, I wish it was a little more pink. It would've been better if the bun was more toasted as well. I ordered onion rings, fried pickles, and cheese curds. Cheese curds and onion rings were really good, but the frickles were huge and every time I would take a bite the pickle would come out of the batter and I would be stuck with the plain batter alone. Overall loved the ambiance and I was miss Aj Bombers and its history.

It is a ln old school, classic vibe. I enjoyed all the sports decor and memorabilia on the walls. Right off the bat, one of the things that stood out to me was how incredibly affordable this place was! Looking at the prices, I was surprised that you could get a burger here for around twelve bucks including fries. That's like fast food prices. Most restaurants charge way more than that and don't include fries, so this place is an amazing bargain! We got their cheese balls, which were cheese curds. These were not bad. I do prefer a more beer battered curd, but I didn't mind these. I also got a bacon cheeseburger called The Loser. In reality, it tastes like a winner. The bread bun is amazing, so soft and fresh. The burger is juicy and flavorful. It's also not too crazy big where all the toppings fall apart. The fries were also crispy and tasty. Our server was also very kind and attentive. She gave us sugar cookies at the end of our meal, which was a nice treat. Overall, I enjoyed coming here. I would come here again to catch a game and enjoy a drink and some bites. You get a decent burger that is also a good bang for your buck.

While other restaurants in the district had hour and a half plus waits, we practically owned the place sitting wherever we liked. On event days they have a reduced menu. As they were slow, the kitchen gracefully allowed us to place a regular menu Crustless Grilled Cheese with Tomato Bisque order for our kiddo. I ordered the LP Burger with bacon ($14 + $2.5 - double smash, sharp american cheese, shredded lettuce, fresh tomato, shaved red onion, LP sauce, potato roll) and my wife ordered the Potato Chip Crusted Chicken Sammy ($12 - honey mop glaze, mayo, shredded lettuce and pickles). The bar has a fair amount of good bourbons and at decent prices for being in the deer district, such as the double neat pour of Stagg I had. There was one bartender/server for the place, but she knew how to hustle while still being super friendly. The interior could use some art on the walls, but is bright and clean otherwise. The food was delicious and presented very well. That bacon I paid extra for? Oh my goodness. Thick cut, perfectly cooked, so dang good. Usually I regret adding bacon but here it is a must. My 8-year-old kiddo, who is practically a vegetarian at this point, devoured her grilled cheese and half of the big bowl of soup. I never even saw my wife's chicken sammy, so you know it was good when it goes down that fast. Thankfully as our food arrived the place started to fill, as they deserve to be filled! I want to come back on a non-event day to try the shrimp poboy, their house dry rub wings, as well as on the weekend for their brunch.
