Even Alton Brown doesn't miss stopping at Cranky Al's for their famous Crueller. My personal favorite is the Crosonut. We also love their muffins and breakfast burritos.

If you like to go out to breakfast and want it to taste almost homemade, go to Ted's. It hasn't changed in fifty years and that's its charm. The prices are reasonable and sitting at the old-fashioned soda counter is a treat you won't want to miss.

This place will make you wonder how you lived without their fresh baked goods for so long. Their croissants are the flakiest, most delectable around. The Tosa Sourdough, baguettes, and whole grain bread are phenomenal. My kids also love their Macaroons. Honestly, I haven't had anything from there that I didn't like!

Where else can you go grab a bite to eat and a drink while overlooking a professional baseball stadium? The restaurant is open all year round, whether or not the Brewers are playing. If you want to sit in the restaurant during a game, be sure to reserve seats by the railing in advance. No additional ticket required but on game days, you do need a ticket.

Get your drink on
Places where you might get food but you're mainly there for the adult beverages and conversation.
Walters is one of those neighborhood gems where they might not know your name, but go in anyhow. The drinks are cheap, the food is good, and the people watching even better. One caveat... they don't do table service so order everything at the bar.

Camp has a great vibe. The lodge decor is homey and it's very spacious. The prices aren't as cheap as Walters but they make a good old fashioned too. And, if you are in town to see a game, they have a handy shuttle so leave the car and ride with them.

We love sitting on Leff's patio in the spring and summer. Kids and adults alike love their patio games. Their wings are fantastic. (I never was a fan of wings until I had theirs.) And the ballpark pretzel is one of our go-to's whenever we visit. The Big Ass Pretzel is fun to get once but it's huge (and breadier) but give it a try if you have a group to share it with. Their Burgers and nachos are also great. Across from Hart Park, there's always something going on there.
