Fool's Errand Kitchen & Eatery, Milwaukee (3rd Ward) , WI

 

A sibling and I decided to start off a short road trip at the best place you can start any weekend day - brunch! 

I knew of the 3rd Ward in Milwaukee from having lived there previously, and it seems it's only gotten fancier and more shopping and dining friendly since I left. I knew we could get brunch, shop and even drink if we wanted to. This place got on my radar though a simple Maps search, having earned a 4.5/5.0 rating. How bad could it be!? 

On the day of our brunch outing, with both of us driving an hour or more, we found the place fine, even grabbed parking easily on this Sunday morning.Not too many pandemic-related nuances once inside. 

What a lovely space it is too. The 3rd Ward buildings are often repurposed factories from a bygone era, and this space seems like no exception…





As for food, I decided to "go light" for my meal, and chose a Broccoli and Wheat Berry Salad (or bowl). It came with two poached eggs on top, and frankly, I wouldn't change this choice. It was perfect and delicious - maybe even healthy  


My sibling had the Eggs Benedict, and while the ham was a bit salty for their liking, I had a taste or two and felt it was a solid option...

We also ordered their version of Monkey Bread (if you don't know it, find it!). This turned out to be maybe a muffin-sized pastry, but again, it was the perfect size. Sweet, cinnamon-y, and delicious.

A very enjoyable brunch, nice staff, and cool space. They also had the technology set-up to review their menu with a QR code and pay for your meal online. Pretty slick these days. To be sure, I'd definitely go back.

Panoramic View of Collectivo Coffee (Lakefront), Milwaukee, WI


I couldn't help but take a long picture of this very unique location and always busy coffee hotspot, down on the lake front in Milwaukee, WI. They seem to have a unique combination of upbeat, patient personnel, old and new food and drink options, and people watching for days. Not to mention they're located in an old water facility on the lakefront... it's a great place to get some refreshment or get some work done.
