The Milwaukee cheesesteak sandwich was full of flavor. House made chips super crunchy. Buffalo chicken salad was full of chicken. The big game burger had two thick slices of beef brisket. Our server was prompt and very friendly.

I enjoy the bay from time to time for a great drink!! The food I’m not too much of a fan of. I ordered a po boy and to my surprise the shrimp wasn’t fried I still ate it as I ordered it but wouldn’t order it again. My regular item is the chips and dip.

Wonderful establishment!!!! This is truly a hidden treasure. We went on a Thursday evening, and it was pretty busy. We were able to get a table immediately. We had a wonderful waitress who provided her favorites which really helped us choose our dinner. We had the buffalo cauliflower bites, hummus with vegetables, salmon salad and buffalo fried chicken salad. Everything was amazing! The hummus is house made. You can’t beat that., . .

My dad and I stopped in on a whim for lunch after an appointment. We are not from the area. Our lunch was absolutely delicious. He had a BLT with chips and I had the cod fish fry. Both fresh, crispy, and hot. Perfection. The waitstaff was attentive and very polite. Thank you!

Wonderful smells and soon as you get near the place. Chili was excellent. Pulled pork sandwich was good not fantastic. Very nice place. Waitress and person who served the food....maybe the chef, were courteous and attentive. Indoor and outdoor very clean and comfortable feeling. Outdoor has some vertical heaters for when the weather turns colder. Nice to see Hinterland on tap.

Y’all know I like to taste good food. This place delivered. Drinks were amazing and my sweet potato burger hit the spot. Sometimes it’s hard to find a place that offers a good lighter meal. This place has choices and I appreciate that.

Big fan of this place. Nice to have a hip local bar right downtown Whitefish Bay in the north shore. There is a great outdoor patio for when the weather is good. Nice variety of menu items. The Bay Burger is a classic. Feel good place to go as well since the owners are very active in the community.
