    Mediterranean Harvest Bowl, Potatoes, Daisy Cake
    Suha M.

    This place was so yum! I had the Mediterranean Harvest Bowl, which was a large portion size and very good. The breakfast potatoes and their classic daisy cakes are both a must have. The cakes were soft, fluffy, and melted, not to mention drenched in syrup. Parking can get a little chaotic when the Corners are busy, but it is only a short walk to the restaurant. The interior is very cute, complete with pink ceilings! Our server was very nice and checked on us often.

    Chai Latte
    Scott W.

    Came here a week earlier as part of a Yelp event. I liked it so much that I came back for breakfast and brought a friend. Food: They have an awesome menu with lots to choose from. I had fully intended to get the Norwegian Benedict, which I had sampled at the event, but the thought of having an entire Apple Pecan Daisy Cake to myself was just too hard to say no to. So that's what I ordered. Now I realize that might be more like dessert, but that's a whole other topic. The food came out in short order, and both my Daisy Cake and my friend's Classic Benedict were excellent. Good temperature, spot-on flavors, and generous portions. I had to get a box to take some home. I also ordered a Chai Latte, which they did an excellent job with. Lots of nice foam and a sprinkle of cinnamon on top. Service: We had great service the entire time. We were seated right away, and the waters and menus followed quickly. The place wasn't crowded, so we felt like we could take our time, and that worked out well. The server did a nice job checking in with us: "How's the food?", "Do you need more water?", and "Can I bring you a to-go box?" Friendly and efficient. Thanks, Ari. Atmosphere: This place is well designed. There's lots of bright natural light coming through the windows, and the seating offers plenty of options. The noise level was good (even at the Yelp event when the place was full). It feels both upscale and relaxed. This place checks all the boxes for either breakfast or lunch. I will definitely be returning.

    Pastrami hash
    Julie P.

    Went for the first time this morning for a late breakfast. My first thought was the temperature of the restaurant. Due to the fact that the entrance is near where the tables are there is a lot of drafts in the front of the restaurant. We had to wait longer for a table because we did not want to be cold. When we sat down, the service started out good. The waitress was very attentive. As the meal went on, we were waiting on her to come to our table so we could ask for more creamer, more coffee, etc. The water brought to the table was also not cold. Maybe consider closing a smaller area around the front door? As for the food, three out of the four people had omelettes and they were extremely good! One of them was missing an ingredient ordered, but my friend chose not to say anything. The salad on the side could use a little bit more vinaigrette as it was a bit bland. I ordered the pastrami hash. The presentation was beautiful. The pastrami was a bit fatty, but overall the flavor was good. I think this restaurant has room to improve but simple fixes.

    Classic Benedict
    Natalie R.

    Waking Daisy is cute breakfast spot at the Corners in Brookfield that I'm happy to report checked all the boxes this chilly Saturday morning. Seated quickly and cheerfully greeted with a carafe of water, we started our meal with a small pot of Anodyne (my favorite) coffee. As we are avid coffee drinkers, I was concerned about the size of our pot of coffee but our server was quick to replace it with a fresh pot when we needed more. Our server was attentive and friendly from start to finish! I ordered my go to, classic Benedict, with pulled ham and a toasted English muffin. The petite greens were lightly dressed and a delicious side to the crispy potatoes and Benedict. The pulled ham wasn't as salty as I usually like but there was a generous amount of ham and the poached eggs were cooked to perfection. I loved every bite of my breakfast! Overall, Waking Daisy was a great place for breakfast and we're already planning to come back to try the famous daisy pancake!

    Waking Daisy had caught my eye from the road and I was excited to try their brunch offerings. I really enjoyed the Chicken & Pancake. The chicken was crispy and flavorful. The pancake was thick and the syrup delicious - not too sweet, just how I like it. This is a standout Milwaukee brunch dish for me! The Irish coffee was a miss and service was a bit slow/didn't check back much. But I would be happy to come back and try more!

    Had a great experience at Waking Daisy this morning. Open since July, they are running very smoothly. The servers are kind and attentive, making sure our table coffee pot was always never empty. This decor is super cute. The checkered green table tops are reminiscent of a neighborhood diner. Clean and bright, they've created an extremely pleasant environment to enjoy a breakfast or brunch. I had the Rita's Classic Combo with thick cut bacon. Eggs were perfectly over hard and the herb potatoes were a tasty addition to the plate. In my opinion, the only thing that needs improving is the cook of the bacon and the coffee pots on the table. I prefer my bacon crispier than how it was cooked and the coffee pots are far too small to have them on the table. They barely fill 2 cups on the table. These aren't enough to keep me away. I'll be back for sure

    Korean breakfast bowl
    Amy M.

    Ordered the Korean breakfast bowl and it hit the savory spot I was looking for. The egg was perfectly runny and meant to be mixed into the rice and pickled onions. And let's be honest--I've never met a pork belly I didn't like, and this one did not disappoint. Delicious and well balanced. The space is bright and comfortable, and our waitress was friendly and helpful, which was especially appreciated since this was my first visit. I'll definitely be back--next time when I'm in the mood for something sweet.

    Wonderful service- so kind from host to server. Lots of tables and booths- and outside dining. Table cake- tasty!! Loved their homemade honey maple syrup...nice item to share. Our table enjoyed our meals- all egg dishes- from the rose's plate to steak and eggs. Coffee was hot and plentiful. Enjoyed our visit. A little pricey- but again, a nice place to come for a breakfast or lunch to meet friends.

    That's my jam burger
    Tony N.

    Finally got to try waking daisy and it was all amazing! There is a huge parking lot outside so parking is not a problem. The restaurant had a nice vibe and perfect vibe for brunch and a good time. The service was amazing, we always had someone come check on us to make sure everything was okay. The food was delicious we got the table cake for the start and it was beyond fluffy. I also got the "that's my jam" burger and I did not think it was going to blow my mind away but it was packed full of flavors! I can't wait to come back and try more items.

    Daisy Cake
    Jerilyn A.

    I gave this restaurant an extra star because I liked the vibe inside. It's really cutesy. For the food. I tried the daisy cake and was excited to see what it would be like. I'm glad I tried it but I wasn't very fond of it. It was dense (not a problem) but the flavor was something I don't have to have again. For my meal I had the Korean breakfast bowl. The pork belly was flavorful but everything else fell a flat to me. Not much flavor unfortunately. I was with my mom and she got a pastrami sandwich which was salty for my taste but I will say the portion sizes are good. I'd be open to coming back and trying a couple more items.

    Table Pancake Daisy Cake with Honey Maple
 Butter Sauce
    Dianne M.

    I have a couple of girlfriends who love to go for brunch. Finding a new place that is as good as Waking Daisy is such a treat! I arrived at the restaurant a few minutes early and got to chat with Michael, who turned out to be the General Manager. He was a delight! So excited about the restaurant the menu! I found out that he is a chef and helped inspire the menu, and contributed recipes for several of the dishes. He also told me that Waking Daisy tries to source their ingredients locally, including their meats. The restaurant was bright and cheery and had comfortable tables and booths. They also have outdoor seating. Michael suggested that we try the Table Pancake, which is their Daisy Cake with Honey Maple Butter Sauce - oh my word! So delicious! We didn't finish it because we all wanted to enjoy our meals. I ordered the biscuits and gravy (because Michael suggested it and because I love biscuits and gravy). It was also delicious! And I would order it again! The eggs were cooked perfectly over easy and served atop nice, tender biscuits, then covered in gravy with pieces of locally sourced sausage. It was served with a salad that was lightly dressed with a citrusy dressing and great potatoes! One of my friends had the grilled cheese - and she's still talking about how great it was! It has homemade tomato jam, caramelized onions, goat cheese, and fontina grilled on sourdough bread. She chose the salad as her side and enjoyed it as well. Our server was very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. She made sure that we didn't feel rushed to leave after we were done. I also got to meet the bar manager (I wish I could remember his name), he was also excited to be a part of this new restaurant. He told me that the owners also own the Fresh Fin restaurant, which is located right next door to Waking Daisy, and it's also outstanding! We all agreed that we should come back and bring our hubbies. Great job, Michael and crew!!!!

    Pastrami hash
    Evbu O.

    Came here with a couple of friends early Sunday morning and were seated promptly with no reservation. The decor is cutesy. It's a floral/picnic theme. Really bright colors that provide a cheerful vibe. Our waitress, Arika Y, was attentive and helpful with recommendations. Onto the food. We ordered the table cake (6/10). Really fluffy and I liked the honey sauce but there was a sharp taste to the pancake that I personally didn't enjoy. My friends had the pastrami hash and chorizo has which they enjoyed. I had the Korean breakfast bowl (8.5/10). It was pretty good but could have had a bit more seasoning on the rice although the pork belly was incredibly tender. Waking daisy seems like a great addition to the area and I'd definitely visit again.

    Omelette
    Jill B.

    First visit to this newly opened breakfast/lunch spot at the Corners, and it won't be the last! We were welcomed in and seated quickly. Our server promptly stopped by. The decor and overall vibe are fun and relaxed. I tried the omelette this time - very good. A few tweaks would have made it awesome - a little seasoning (my friend who had the same agreed) and maybe chopping up those onions a little smaller so they cook a little more thoroughly and don't overwhelm. But it was tasty, the portion size was great, and the potatoes and greens on the side were a nice addition. Can't wait to come back and try another menu item soon - lots of dishes on my "need to try" list, like those signature Daisy cakes!

They serve their entire menu all day, so I was able to get the wrap I was craving even at 8:45am. My husband had the Oreo waffle, which was very sweet and very good!

I've dined there once before and was slightly disappointed by their pancakes, but I wanted to give them another chance with their French Toast. One criticism I have right off the bat is HBPC's menu offers descriptions of their different pancake varieties, but no descriptions are provided for their French Toast, which led me to asking our server more questions than I'd prefer to. There ended up not being a type of French Toast available on the menu that was exactly what, but our server did allow the modifications I requested, which brings us to my Nutella Stuffed French Toast (which should be a regular menu item). I got two large pieces of brioche French Toast dusted with powdered sugar and lathered in and stuffed with sweet Nutella. My taste buds were rejoicing from the combination of chocolate, hazelnut, butter, and hints of eggs. The French Toast was warm, perfectly crispy on the outside, pleasantly chewy, and incredibly thick (I actually struggled cutting it). It was precisely what I was hankering for and really hit the spot! I saved half for dinner at home and enjoyed it even more as chilling it in the fridge did wonders for the texture.

I saw a picture of their breakfast burrito on social media and made plans to stop the next day. In addition to the breakfast burrito, which came with a side of hash browns, I ordered cheddar broccoli soup and was gifted a brownie for visiting. The breakfast burrito is build your own with a bunch of different options for meats, cheese, and veggies. I went with bacon, American cheese, and spinach and wasn't disappointed. The burrito was hefty and every one of the ingredients stood out. This is something I would definitely come back for. The three hash brown patties tasted as you'd expect and I appreciate that they weren't cold in the middle or bland. You can definitely notice the freshness in the soup. It was thick and used actual florets of broccoli, not just the stalks. Given the size of the burrito I had just eaten, though, I wish there was an option for a smaller portion of soup. The bowl was large and if you just plan on having that as a meal it's fine, but I would have preferred buying a cup as compared to a large bowl. Hopefully that's something they consider as a menu tweak. I'm not a big brownie person, but I enjoyed it. Like the burrito and the soup, it was a sizable portion, so worth the price if you're buying one. I'd be interested in trying their lemon bar or coffee cake on a future visit as those are more up my alley. I enjoyed talking to the woman who was prepping the dining area while I was there. She mentioned that Senor Luna's next door is their sister location and that Miss Daisy's has such early hours (currently 5am during the week) so as to cater to the nearby business park. I appreciate the early hours because I can easily make it there and back over to where I work in plenty of time.
