Buckley's Restaurant & Bar

Buckley's, a restaurant neatly tucked away on Cass Street in Milwaukee, has a beautiful interior and a very friendly staff. We went on a Sunday Brunch date and sat at a high-top in the bar area. We were waited on by the bartender and he seemed slightly overwhelmed as it was fairly busy, but he handled it very well and was attentive. Overall, the food was good. I would say I enjoyed the pork shoulder sandwich, but I would caution that it may need more seasoning. I was glad salt was on the table as it needed a dash or two. We also enjoyed the hush puppies with crab and avacado creme. The dessert was good, with the peanut butter buttercream and chocolate cake, but it needed to be warmed up a bit as it seemed to be straight from the cooler. Overall, pretty good with a really nice, friendly staff.

Buckley’s was great, we always visited when in Milwaukee. I feel like their food has really suffered the last few visits. We will always swing by for take-out carrot cake to enjoy when we get home, but will probably skip dinner from now on. Disappointing…

Great bartender, we had drinks and some apps on the walk to summerfest from the plaza. Generous portions, great drinks
