Kopp's is local favorite in Milwaukee. If you know, you know! And if you don't, the cheeseburger…read morealone is reason enough to make a visit. In my opinion, the cheeseburger here is among the best around. Get it with the works, then add Usinger's bacon and pickles. Seriously, you can't beat it! Pair that burger with the onion rings. They're considerably better than the fries, in my opinion. And don't forget the Sprecher root beer on tap. It's the perfect addition to the whole experience. Be prepared for a crowd. This location is usually busy, and figuring out where the line even starts to order can be an adventure! But the staff is efficient, friendly, and helpful. Just listen closely for your number to be called. Everything is cooked fresh, so there can be a wait, but it's absolutely worth it. This location has standing tables only inside. There are some large concrete stair-style seating areas on either side of the building, but those are primarily an option when the weather cooperates. And then there's the custard! Exceptional, as always. They offer two flavors of the day in addition to their always-available vanilla and chocolate. You can check the daily flavors on the Kopp's app, which is a must if you're planning a visit around a particular flavor. Butter Pecan is one of my favorites, and it comes around on the schedule every 11 days. But who's counting!? It's a Milwaukee classic for a reason. Don't leave town without stopping!

Let me just tell you how wonderfully amazing this tasted on a very hot day, which felt like it was…read moreover 100. I stopped by for a scoop of mint chip custard and it was creamy, rich, cool, and delicious. But - really is there no bad day for custard? No, there isn't! This place is busy all year round, and for good reason. For the custard, there is usually a flavor of the day, plus the usual favorites, vanilla and chocolate, plus a sundae and shake of the month. A sign outdoors advertises the flavor of the day and a monthly menu of each flavor of the day is available online, if you want to plan ahead for your visit. If you've not been to this Milwaukee icon, it's a must-stop; the custard is really, really good. The retail store is set up like a 50s type diner, and there are plenty of folks ready to take your order. There is no seating indoors, just a few tables for standing-only to munch and chat. However, there is outdoor seating like a mini amphitheater on cement steps, and when the weather is nice, it is not unusual to see large groups of customers sitting outside eating ice cream or other treats or burgers. The menu also includes burgers, chicken sandwiches, fries, shakes, malts, floats, and sundaes, too.

My wife and I visited Purple Door in Mequon a couple of weekends ago.

This is a game changer for me since most of their ice creams are just base flavors without added toppings. Mixing flavors like chocolate and mint chip together created a super tasty bowl of ice cream. I'll be looking to do this the next time I make it there.

The shop is right off of 43 and has plenty of parking. Employees were very friendly and helped walk us through all of the confections. Everything is in little glass cases displaying the gorgeous way their candy is decorated. We got a box of Bon Bons, Little Bit of Everything bar, Macaroons, a pint of Caramel Apple Gelato, and a scoop of Cookies'n Cream in a cone. The Bon Bons had a flavor guide included which was appreciated! My favorite was the salted caramel, always a classic. The everything bar was excellent but too many flavors going on for my taste. The macaroons are some of the best in the area! Perfectly chewy meringue with a creamy center. The gelato was the perfect consistency and held up nicely on the twenty minute drive home. I highly recommend a stop next time you have a sweet tooth!

Side note: I would have given 5-stars for today's experience except I asked the young girl at the counter to make my drink for here in a cafe mug and it was served in a to-go cup.

There seem to be very few employees, as we have seen the same counter guy on each visit, but he does an extremely good job -- esp considering that he is handling both the donut and the ice cream side of the business, as well as as a drive-through. He's always very nice. I hope they stay for many years to come! We have been there three times now, and will be back again soon. PS The donuts are tummy too.

Throwback! Recently went into Baskin Robbins for the first time since I was a kid. It was a quite…read morethe hot day, so to no surprise the place was slammed. This is only a small store, with maybe 2 or 3 tables and a few high seats near the front window. I could be wrong but I didn't see any outdoor/patio seating. Because the place was so busy, it was tough to see all of the ice cream options. It sure looked like there were "31 flavors" though! Because we couldn't make it all the way around, I opted for the first one that stuck out to me - oreo s'more. Omg. I very rarely have treats like, but dang was it good. Literally tasted like a perfect swirl of graham cracker and marshmallow flavored ice cream, with add chunks of oreo. Just one scoop was enough for me. They have this cute option for kids called Creature Creations, which is essentially a scoop of ice cream with a theme - dinosaur, unicorn, or alien. Our son loves dinos so we went with that one (see photo). To no surprise, he loved the chocolate and sprinkles! Plus it came with a dinosaur crown he wore on our way out of the shop. Beyond just regularly-served ice cream, here you'll find customizable cakes and pies, malts, sundaes, polar pizza (aka cookie pie w ice cream), bakery treats, and beverages. Basically anything and everything to satisfy your sweet tooth.

What a delightful experience at North Shore Boulangerie!…read more The service was excellent from start to finish, and the food was equally impressive! 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!
