Catered Beans and Barley for a post-wedding family picnic in the park! The process was seamless and we had so many great options to choose from. When we ordered, Jennifer made sure that we had enough food for 100 people and met dietary restrictions (nut-free, some vegetarian, some gluten-free). The day of, the team set everything up - including heated pans - all we needed to do was bring plates! Everyone complimented the spread - the turkey chutney sandwiches and the hummus on the veggies were guest favorites. And the pear coffee cake! Everything was clearly labelled and clean up was a breeze. Could not have been easier or more delicious - would order again!

Just had the worst experience here which is crazy because it was a spot I usually frequent due to them have gluten free items (I have celiacs). There were just a lot of micro issues that added up. First I walked in by myself and was told I could sit anywhere and I chose a booth. Waitress walked up, never greeted me and sat everything (water, menus, silverware) on the opposite side of the table from where I was sitting, okay that's fine, not too worried just moved it closer to me, then just walked away without greeting or really even asking if she could get me anything else. Not a word. Okay fine I get bad days. I then sat for 15 minutes before I had to eventually ask another waitress to take my order. I was very kind, smiley and tactful the entire time so I'm just really confused, She literally rolled her eyes and said okay, so I proceeded to order and I warned her I had celiacs and just wanted to make sure if she could let the kitchen know it's for a gluten allergy and to make sure the bread it gluten free (again being very kind). She acted like I told her to bite my toenails off?? I then get my order 20 minutes later and it's super cold and not to mention I found not one, not two, not even three but four strands of hair all over my plate. AND it was NOT gluten free bread! | was starving and unfortunately didn't notice till I took a bite and looked (plus when I had my gluten symptoms the next day from it). This is my second time getting glutened by them, my fault for thinking it would be different this time. Not to mention, all the servers were standing around talking the entire time and nobody came to check on me or anything at all. The menu revamp is different and they took off a few items that I loved. So I don't know. I just took the check and left. It was just the poorest service i've ever experienced since being in Milwaukee, I will not be coming here again. *NOT CELIAC OR GLUTEN SENSITIVE SAFE* I don't normally write bad reviews but I need to come on here for my fellow celiacs and gluten sensitively/allergen people.

Food was decent, black beans was more like a porridge. Service was polite and attentive. This location has both indoor and outdoor eating. They had some local beers on tap along with some Mexican favorites. Menu had vegan options available as well as gluten free options. They do offer daily drink specials as well as specials if you get three tacos.

I'd seen the space being prepared to open for months, and stopped in on a whim today because they looked to be open! The atmosphere of the diner is very bright and welcoming, and the staff were friendly and helpful. They have a mobile order/pay system that was super convenient, so I got to order at my pace without having to wait for someone to take my order. I got The Classic breakfast and a pumpkin pie smoothie, and everything was delicious! I have Celiac, and was assured the kitchen would use fresh pans/utensils for me, and the GF bread they had was delicious.
