    I'm not a native Milwaukeean, but I've lived in the area long enough to understand how popular Kopp's is with many people. Even though it's not necessarily my favorite, once in a while a custard flavor of the day will be intriguing enough where I feel like I have to stop in to try it. On this particular visit that flavor was German apple strudel. In addition to two scoops in a waffle cone, I got a plain double cheeseburger. The double cheeseburger is huge, it's got a lot of cheese on it, and I'm fairly certain it's cooked to order, all of which are great points. My problems with it are twofold. First, I ordered the burger plain, so not only do I not want pickle on my sandwich at all, I especially don't want it on top of the bun seeping pickle flavor into it. Second, I feel like the top part of the bun flakes apart pretty easily, making a mess of it. Overall it's a fine burger, but not worth the hype it gets. The custard was very good. I loved the bits of apple in the custard and the two scoops were humongous. The "strudel" was more like hard cookie chunks than what I think of as strudel. It wasn't my favorite flavor of the day that I've had from Kopp's, but it was easily the better of the two items I got.

    Frozen Custard 4 Scoops - Chocolate, Caramel Pecan Silk, Mint Chip, Vanilla

    We came over at around 12 pm on a Friday and the first thing we saw was the giant list of 100 reasons to buy a kopp's gift card. It was so funny looking at all the different reasons from To Offer a Bribe to Sorry the Market Dropped. We ordered on the custard side where the other was burgers and fries. They have 2 special flavors of the day and the standard vanilla and chocolate to choose from. Frozen Custard 4 Scoops - They filled it to the brim stacking each flavor on each other. Every layer of custard was so creamy and smooth. The mint chocolate chip was what I wanted the most, the mint flavor was strong and it was generous with chocolate chips. The standard flavors were also really good with the rich chocolate and light vanilla. The biscuit on top was nice to scoop with, soft and lightly crunchy. We shared this between 4 people and it was so filling from the rich creaminess of their custard. I do wish they put all the flavor scoops separately but I understand why this custard is so popular and has been said is the best in the area.

    Best frozen custard I've ever had! I had their black raspberry and chocolate in a waffle cone. Paid around $5.50 and got a ginormous portion. (I'm not from WI) Super silky smooth. Just the right amount of sweetness and the black raspberry had bits of the real fruit. My friend who frequents here also mentioned that their other flavors of the day like birthday cake would have pieces of actual cake in it. They also serve burgers and other typical American fast food but I have tried so can't comment. This one is located in a shopping center corner and there is a nice outdoor space to enjoy outside during the warmer months.

    One of the constantly rotating specialty flavors.  Super creamy with a nice bit of tart mixed in.

    Kopp's is one of those special places that defines a city and while I'm sure families have traveled there for decades, Kopp's was a new find for me as I rarely travel to Milwaukee for business but this is now a must visit when I'm in town. Not only do they serve some of the best custard I've ever had nationally, but their burgers are also something to reckon with and the only issue is whether you can save room for the custard after having this larger than life burger. Maybe start with the custard first? No shame or judgment if you eat dessert first but both are highly recommended, no matter the order. If you look at the website online, you can see their monthly calendar of rotating selections along with constant standards (i.e. vanilla, chocolate, etc.). For me, it's always the luck of the draw for when I'm lucky enough to be able to visit but ohhh...to be able to be the master of my own fate and plan for the flavors you crave!! Oh well - highly recommended and this particular location is near MKE airport so PLEASE find time to stop on the way and you can thank me later!

    Kopp's Frozen Custard never disappoints! We ordered three cheeseburgers and an order of onion rings, and everything came out hot, fresh, and delicious. The burgers were juicy, the onion rings were crispy, and the service was fast and friendly, even while they were busy. We ate at one of the stand-up tables, which worked perfectly, and there are plenty of outdoor seating options--especially great in the summer. The location is also close to shopping, making it an easy stop. And of course, the custard! I love that they offer so many rotating and holiday custard flavors--always something fun and tasty to try. Yummy and a must-visit if you're in the area!

    I remember coming here as a kid and I'm so happy that nothing has changed. They have separate counters: one to order burgers and another for custard. Once your order is ready, they'll announce your number over the loud speakers. I had gotten a burger, fries, and custard. They have some of the largest burgers I've seen in a long time. Each bite was perfectly balanced with meat, cheese, pickle, ketchup, and part of the toasty bun. This was the definition of a perfect burger. I didn't feel it was too greasy but I know the fried onions add a bit more grease to it. But the star of the show was certainly their custard. It's so creamy and the perfect sweet treat. If you ever visit this side of town I highly recommend you grab a scoop of this legendary custard!

    100% a Wisconsin classic! Kopp's is always on my must-visit list for out-of-town guests -- and of course for the grandkids, who think it's the best treat ever. When Butter Brickle hits the flavor-of-the-day calendar, we stock up on quarts because it's my significant other's childhood favorite. My personal go-to? Tiramisu. Kopp's is definitely an ice scream to scream about.

    Cherry amaretto cheese cake custard- so fresh and yummy

    BY FAR my vote for best custard in MKE (and one of my favorites for a burger and fries too!) Their custard is so creamy with the perfect amount of mix-ins! You get a good size scoop too which is always appreciated (please never change that)! They have lots of fun outdoor sitting areas and is a perfect spot for a sweet treat any time of year. Love their new digital board and signs- definitely elevates the space!

    I had a great takeout experience! I ordered onions rings, a cheeseburger, and Coke on the website. I only had to wait 2 minutes for my food to be made fresh. Usually it takes quite a bit longer if ordering at the restaurant. When I got the food home everything tasted great! There is something about the mustard on the burgers at Kopps that I absolutely love!

    Was visiting Milwaukee for a wedding and was recommended Kopp's for their burgers and frozen custard. I liked it so much that I went twice during my three-day trip! First time I got their custards in a cone. They change up their menu on a daily basis so be ready to be surprised. They have their monthly menu in a booklet in case you want to plan ahead, but I don't think you can go wrong with any flavor. I had some raspberry combination and a caramel combination. Both were amazing. During my second visit I tried their burgers, fries, onion rings, and more custards. Their burgers were relatively much bigger than what im used to. Their patties were nice and thick, unlike my beloved In n Out's. I got their double double and really enjoyed it. Fries were ok, onion rings were nice and crispy. Custard's flavors of the day were great as well (their mango combination was my favorite) They have plenty of parking available. No tables to eat at, so a lot of people eat on the outside area on the benches. The only bad thing was that I found a hair in my custard during my first visit. They exchanged it to me for a new one. It didn't stop me from visiting again, but not the most ideal experience. Hoping they're more careful in the future about hygiene.

    Something about this place feels nostalgic! It may be the uniforms the workers were wearing.. or the look of the silver building. Whatever it was, I love it! There are multiple lines to lessen traffic- 2 for custard and drinks and 2 for food etc. Once your order if ready, they call your number/name out. There is tons of seating outside, as well as parking. We only came for the custard, but I'd love to come back and try the burgers because I heard they're HUGE for the value and they smelled really good. Custard was smooth and delicious. We got one chocolate and one vanilla. Chocolate was rich and vanilla was creamy! There is also a flavor of the day so make sure you check that out whenever you go!

    It's not ice cream, it's frozen custard. It's something new I've discovered that is apparently a Wisconsin staple. They even sell half gallon size! We got the flavors of the day, key lime pie and turtle. Can't go wrong with any flavor. The turtle flavor is so yummy though. Wish I stayed a few more days to try the cookie dough flavor that was forecasted for friday that week! We also got the burger, fries, and coke. Burger is huge and came with nothing on it, unless requested. We like our burger with just cheese so it was perfect. Bread so soft and burger juicy. Even the fries are very yummy. Honestly can't go wrong with anything at this place! They have a separate booth that takes frozen custard only order. The other booth, you can order the burger and frozen custard. Goes to show you, they're probably really busy with the frozen custard orders. They provide a shared outdoor setting to enjoy your meal/snack. Everybody is so clean, you don't see trash just left or flying around in the windy weather.

    This is my first time in Wisconsin so obviously I needed to try Kopp's and see what the hype was about. I ordered a burger and not only was it massive but I got to choose the toppings I wanted on it. I would say it tasted similar to five guys. Now their custard, wow. I got the two flavors of the day which were fairy plum and Christmas cheer. I could live without the burger but not without the ice cream.

I did notice that he both works the counter and cooks the food in the back, so he's clearly very hard-working. The fries were great crispy on the outside but fluffy on the inside. The chicken sandwich was made well, but the chicken was a little bit dry, which is why I gave four stars instead of five. I added some extra sauce I had at home and it was perfect. I would maybe recommend asking for extra sauce if you plan on eating it there. Overall good food and great service. Will definitely be back if we need something quick to go.

For drinks my husband ordered a ginger beer and I ordered Diet Coke. The check before tip was $62. Normally I'd be okay with that but I thought it was a lot given the quality of the food. The cheese curds and boneless chicken wings seemed like items from a restaurant supply place that they fried up. Unfortunately next time we are in the area we'll go somewhere else. A fast food restaurant would have given us the same quality food for a fraction of the price.
