    In the Marshall building
    Andy K.

    And now for something different I tend to bring goodies home but the fam likes to have something different from time to time. Press Waffles definitely fit the bill. I always see the Press food truck but am late to the game. I pre-ordered with toppings on the side and picked up from their closed retail location on a Friday afternoon. I chose the lemon curd with berry compote and truly enjoyed the flavors. Once we get past COVID it will be great to stop in here to check out other offerings, this cafe is a super cool spot.

    One of my favorite pick me ups to get in Milwaukee! I love getting a savory waffle for breakfast strolling through South Shore Farmers Market - talk about a perfect morning! The smell of their food truck alone is enough to convince me to order one. The ingredients are always fresh and the waffles are fluffy

    Sandwich and soup
    Lico J.

    Since everyone has known or heard about their signature thick, golden and yummy Belgian waffles, I am posting this for their sandwich and soup at their new permanent location in third ward. I didn't have high expectations about their sandwiches in the beginning, but I was totally blown away after the first bite. I got the Brie, Bacon, Apricot Jam and Arugula sandwich with rusty tomato soup. They were both of decent sizes. The sandwich was nicely prepared as you can tell from how tight it was paper wrapped. The taste was even better - slightly chewy yummy bacon, slightly sweet apricot jam and large, thick pieces of Brie cheese combined so well. The arugula gave that little hint of natural bitterness. Bread was not dry at all and was fluffy inside and chewy outside. The rusty tomato soup contained some chopped things which I wasn't sure about what they are but were very flavorful. I got so full after finishing my sandwich and soup. The cafe is very small (three tables in total I think maximum 10-12 people can sit) but it is so clean, bright and cute! I can smell the sweet waffles from the door of Marshall Building.

    Honey goat cheese & mild chutney by SA BRAAI - slightly sweet & little spicy, amazing!
    Pamela M.

    I mean, I'm not so much a sweet eater, but when I saw them parked outside of Anodyne on a Sunday and they were going to leave soon, I had to try. They had quite a few of fruit, cheese, and Nutella flavors. I asked for what was less sweet and there's when he said the honey goat cheese with SA BRAAI chutney, and I said yes to that! And it was really good! With a bit of a kick to it from the zippy chutney. The waffle itself is chewy and has a sugary outside, but not over the top sugary. It gave it this nice appearance and texture. I was really blown away with how tasty this waffle was! If you have the chance to try their waffles, hungry or not, definitely do it!!!

    I am in love with Press Waffles. Everything about it is so awesome. We needed a smaller little breakfast spot in the Third Ward. Aside from your classic coffee shops with mediocre food in the area, there are just nice sit-down spots. This place is the best of all worlds -- great coffee, unique and delicious food items, and a small sit down area. Come and go, or stay awhile. The atmosphere is awesome. We have also loved the service we've had when we've been in there. It has been the same barista, and he is great at suggestions and small talk! We really enjoy coming here, and love that it's local.

    tl;dr consistent, delicious waffles at the ready. This food truck tours around to a lot of Farmers Markets, but I've personally experienced it at the South Shore Farmers Market. Soft and fluffy on the inside, but sturdy on the outside for all your glorious toppins'! Strawberry, Nutella and seemingly homemade whipped cream graced the presence of my waffle as I sat on a bench and enjoyed the lake view and ate the whole thing. Pretty speedy service since they're pumping these out of a food truck, and the workers are always super friendly. Sweet and savory is an option - you have more hearty choices like honey goat cheese and candied bacon or honey goat cheese with a mild chutney from SA BRAAI. A sweet twist on a classic breakfast/brunch food and I like that they have the concept of a "waffle bar" catering option you could do for a work event. Other Farmers Markets they seemingly grace on the regular: Tosa Farmers Market and Shorewood Farmers Market.

    If you've ever had Press Waffles at a local farmers market, you'll know how great it is to have a brick and mortar location to go to when farmers market season ends. But if you've never had their liege waffles before, don't delay! They have amazing seasonal features and fantastic year round flavors. They have great coffee options and other non-waffle food items on the menu to check out. The staff are friendly and welcoming and the space itself is quite darling and cheerful. It's a very small space but it's a quick and easy stop in, so make sure to do so!

    Honey Goat Cheese + Bacon Waffle

    Cute little hidden place! Definitely love supporting smaller businesses like this. Honey goat cheese and bacon waffle was amazing. Service was perfect. Definitely will come back when in Milwaukee!

    Hi, this is Dominic the food reviewer. Today I tried a restaurant called Press Waffles. It is located on 207 E. Buffalo ST, Suite 104 in Milwaukee, WI 53202. It's on the first floor of the Marshall building. Same building as my favorite Chinese place Jing's. I thought the decor was like a European bakery and it was very clean and new looking. The workers were very nice and welcoming. They are open M-F 8AM-5pm, and Saturdays 9AM-5pm. Closed Sunday. They make Liege Waffles which are made with buttery brioche dough. The toppings they sell are very fresh. They also make Baguette sandwiches, salads, and soups. They make the waffles with the toppings right in front of you, so you can see everything. It smells great in there also. I had the Honey Goat Cheese w/ Candied Bacon waffle. My dad had the Strawbery w/ Whipped Cream waffle. My Grandma had the Speculoos waffle, which is like a cookie butter that has a gingerbread taste. I thought my waffle was fresh tasting, and the toppings were delicious. My dad thought it was the best waffle he ever had. My Grandma also loved her waffle. The waffle almost had a croissant taste, which was awesome. They also have a food truck that you can find at the Milwaukee winter farmers market at the Dome's on Saturday's. They also are at the Wauwatosa farmer's market, and the South Shore farmer's market during the summer. This is Dominic the Food reviewer. I think everybody should try these waffles. They were delicious. Press.

    Featured Waffle: Clock Shadow Quark, fresh peaches, honey and basil....so good!!
    Kari B.

    I've seen this food truck often at different events and farmers markets and I've never tried them until today when their featured waffle piqued my interest. It had creamy quark from Clock Shadow Creamery, fresh sliced peaches, drizzle of honey and basil. What a great flavor combination!!! I am now a huge fan of Press Waffles.

    look how cute this food truck is!!
    Carie F.

    found this adorable truck at the NEWaukee Night Market & when I saw the word waffles I HAD to check it out. I befriended a nice girl who told me I had to try the honey goat cheese & candied bacon one, and it was so so so good! the light sweetness of the waffle & honey coupled with the creamy goat cheese & generous portion of bacon was incredible. seriously, try this one! I couldn't stop telling people about it. what looked to be an average sized waffle was a huge portion, I was really full after eating it. the menu had savory & sweet options -- the lemon curd & blueberry one looked incredible as well.

    Meghan E.

    I'm going to start this review by saying that I've known one of the owners for a decade but we haven't seen each other since he started this venture. I made a trip out from Buffalo to get these waffles (i'm serious), and they didn't disappoint. I didn't get the full farmer's market experience but I did get the opportunity to sample the toppings in Press.'s kitchen and it was well worth the trip from the 716. Let me tell you what these are not: they are not your typical brunch waffle fare. These are doughy, yeasty, caramelized, slightly crunchy outside, chewy inside delights. The selection of toppings is outstanding, and if I were coming to the market I'd have to get two: one sweet (lemon curd +blueberry compote) and one savory (goat cheese and chutney or goat cheese + candied bacon). The prices are reasonable so if you're in the same boat I am and can't decide? Treat yo'self and get both. And maybe 3rd one in the form of the Tomorrow waffle so you have one for the next morning. Just a thought. Awesome work, Aaron and Emily! Can't wait to see what's up next for Press.

    Goat cheese and bacon waffle & lemon curd waffle
    Leah G.

    One of Milwaukee's hidden gems!!! We had been meaning to stop by here in the morning (we kept seeing the little sign during our morning walks) and finally made it in. We have been missing out! We ordered the waffle with lemon curd, blueberries and cream and the goat cheese and bacon waffle and this was the perfect order. Sweet and savory! The sandwiches and other menu items looks great as well. They also serve great lattes! A must try in Milwaukee!

Everyone we came across was genuinely nice and welcoming, which always makes a difference. I ordered the apple French toast with a side of bacon and scrambled eggs...everything was really good. No complaints there at all. Now let's talk drinks, the Mimosa flight is a must-try. It was $25 and came with about 6-7 different flavors to pick from, all flavorful and surprisingly strong (in a good way). I do wish I had known about their $16 unlimited mimosas on Saturdays, that would've been a nice bonus, but the flight was definitely still worth it. Overall, it's a great brunch spot with good food, great drinks, and an even better atmosphere. If I'm ever back in Milwaukee, this is definitely a place I'd visit again.

Menus...I normally don't comment on the menu itself but our table featured no less than 4 different menus...the regular menu, a drink menu, a specials menu and a mimosas menu...choices are wonderful, but the immediate reaction is this is a whole mess of menus on the table, and I don't know what to look at first. It felt haphazard. Let's move on to the coffee...Coffee is an essential part of the brunch experience. Even at a diner, you want it to be strong...the mug it came in was nice, but it was weak coffee. I need coffee to kick my butt, and if you're serving what's close to "browned water" at a breakfast place, you're missing the mark. How about the food? I can't fault them for the generosity of the portions, but will say individual dishes were way too much for my wife and I...we wish smaller portions were available, so so much didn't go to waste. My wife had the Egg and Waffle sandwich with waffle fries. It was fine. I had the Harvest Hash made with egg whites...the eggs were a little overcooked. (Egg whites require a thoughtful touch when cooking them so they are finished white and not browning all over.) There are plenty of fresh tomatoes, mushrooms, and peppers in there (I guess that's the extent of the harvest in Milwaukee) The hashbrowns it all sat on were undercooked. We were excited about the croissant beignets...Available were the regular ones with chocolate or strawberry dipping sauce, and a special with a fruit dipping sauce. They couldn't mix and match sauces, so we got the special. They were okay but a bit over-fried, losing the croissant texture altogether ...I mean, there's nothing wrong with deep-fried dough with sweet things to dip them in, but we do wish they hadn't fried the croissant out of them to give us the unique experience implied by the name. The menu has plenty to choose from...every breakfast savory or sweet thing you could imagine...and on the nicely designed, modern-looking menu at looks like it could be amazing...but everything we got, plus the experience of sitting in a place that felt a little rundown, left us overall disappointed.
