The Lafayette Place - Milwaukee

This was a cute breakfast/lunch place! Small and cozy, a great place to meet friends for brunch or stop in and read a book while you munch!

Holy heck, this place is great. I went the morning they opened and returned the next two days because it really is phenomenal. The roasted vegetables (I think it was brussel sprouts, carrots, onion, mushroom, potato) in the cheesy hash and veggie melt were super well-seasoned and hearty. The tofu scramble in The Classic was REALLY great. Things were saucy and GOOD. You can tell they put a lot of effort into perfecting the flavors. I love that they use local vendors for many of their dishes (Rocket Baby bakery, Ruby's Bagels, Simple Soyman, etc). Excited to try the smoothies, because they sound really clever (peach basil; blueberry muffin; banana chai.. FYI, this is located in the same spot where the old Celesta restaurant used to be.

These people know what the hell they're doing! Only just soft opened and already spot on with service, drinks, timing, and flavors. Everything I've tried has been amazing. The menu is a handful of the best of the vegan goodies from The National with a bunch of fantastic new options. Can't wait to see what's next from this amazing new corner spot, they've really hit the ground running. Breakfast and lunch only so set your alarm.

The room that was formerly occupied by celesta is now lafayette place. it is still cozy and the 100% vegan breakfast, brunch and lunch are all mouth water!

Lafayette Place is such a great addition to the east side . The food is always fresh and the people are wonderful.
