I tried a tuna melt, having been underwhelmed by a breakfast experience on a prior visit and since I don't eat meat. the sandwich was good and I enjoyed the challah bread until about halfway through when I hit a fishy bite and was put off. The accompanying fries were very good. BF really enjoyed his Reuben, which was filling and meaty - thus the 4 stars. I'm waiting for a winner from Benji's, but as a vegetarian, I might be waiting a long time.

I got the lake front sandwich and a mango lassi, and both were phenomenal! The ingredients were all very fresh and made to order, and the service was great!

Anyway, had I known she was going to make my grilled panini with regular sandwich bread, I definitely would have tried somewhere different. Not that it tasted bad at all, I assumed grilled panini meant ciabatta and also GRILLED. I had gotten a mango lassi too and was not my preference as well, they mix theirs with spices (that were chunky in the drink, not pleasant for me personally). The worker was so nice but yeah, false advertising for their menu items.

I have been wanting to try their Italian beef for so long and I'm so glad that I finally did! I got…read morethe regular size, it was fully loaded and way more than enough. The beef was perfectly tender and well seasoned. I got the au jus on the side which I'm glad I did because as fresh and delicious as the roll was, it was pretty soft and not sturdy enough to hold all of that flavorful beef. The flavor of the au jus was incredible and it was nice to be able to dip and pour a little on top as I gobbled down. I also got the tomato salad and marinated mozzarella. The tomatoes were super fresh and juicy and all of the vegetables were crunchy and fresh! I only got one cucumber slice but at the same time I also ordered the smallest size so that's just how the cookie crumbled in terms of ratios. The mozzarella might have been the best I've ever had. The seasoning on the outside was amazing and the freshness and moisture was absolutely perfect. I tried the pizza slice at Brady st fest and it was pretty solid. The sauce had a slight sweetness to it and there was a very nice cheese to sauce to crust ratio. I love a good thick layer of cheese and this definitely had it! The Italian sausage was cooked perfectly and the seasoning was on point! The staff was super friendly and helpful. The inside of the store had a really unique feel, almost like I was in another country. I can't wait to go back to their deli and try more of their delicious food!

WHERE to begin? I've…read morebeen familiar with B&B since its earliest days (which roughly coincided with the earliest days of another great Milwaukee institution, Outpost Natural Foods -- where I was a member and volunteer). A good friend of mine cooked at B&B for a while. As young, recent college grads, my wife and I regularly ate there. Along with Oriental Drugs, the Blue River Cafe, The Outpost and Century Hall, B&B was a favorite, comforting go-to spot. Although I couldn't visit very often during my 25 years on the west coast, I was so very happy to know that it was still here, and as wonderful as ever, when I returned to Wisconsin in 2008. How funny to think that this tremendous haven for those wanting to include at least some vegetarian foods in their diet occupied the spot once known for Frenchy's restaurant (the place famous/infamous for its bear and lion steaks)! I'll need a new place to eat before going to the Oriental Theater. And I'll need a long time to process the sadness I feel. All the best to the owners and staff . . . and here's hoping that maybe B&B will live on in another location.

The pork belly was cooked to perfection and was nice and crispy. The drink I got was called the Sconnie Mosa and it was like a mimosa, but with a cranberry liqueur added to it. This drink was delicious! The service was super friendly and I loved the classic diner vibes. I highly recommend this place and can't wait to go back for lunch!

They were open an hour earlier than the cheese mart so we headed here first and got our meats!

Anyway the prices were great and I got a ton of different types of meats to take back home. I got some sliced meats that I made sandwiches with when I got back to my hotel. A perfect lunch! The hickory smoked meat sticks were a great travel snack.

I started with the French onion soup, which was loaded with melty cheese and had such an incredible depth of flavor. I also enjoyed a beautiful slice of Quiche Lorraine, accompanied by an excellent side salad, sliced baguette, and the cutest little swirls of butter! Of course, I couldn't leave a French bakery without trying a pastry, so I went with the cherry almond Danish. And I'm not exaggerating when I say it might be one of the best things I've ever eaten! Absolutely phenomenal. I finished with a lovely cup of coffee, which was the perfect ending to an already wonderful meal. The chef also let me in on a little secret: one of their sleeper hits is the rye bread. Naturally, I couldn't resist taking home a sliced loaf, and I can't wait to try it tomorrow! Excellent service, exceptional food, and so many thoughtful little touches. Highly recommend!

Date of visit: April 26, 2026…read more Another place that has seemingly been around forever, but I didn't get a chance to visit until my days in Milwaukee were numbered! We came on a Sunday before they officially started serving breakfast and just had pastries available, but we were getting together with some friends for our monthly coffee date and didn't need a whole meal necessarily. The selection was a bit more limited than I would have expected from a boulangerie, but the cinnamon roll was very good (probably would have been better if it had been warmed up but that was not offered). And the cookies that we brought home (chocolate chip and gingersnap) were also very good. I also tried a bite of my husband's quiche and it was very good--definitely made in-house! The almond croissant had a generous amount of almond paste in it, and was quite sizable, too.

I keep thinking about the soft pretzels with bread pudding consistency and the crunchy streusel topping. I know some might think it's really sweet but I loved it.

I need this to be on the menu more often or someone needs to send me the recipe lol! Also, the cafe gave us a voucher for next time once we realized they forgot the gravy to go with our biscuits. Always happy with the service and vegan options.
