Let's say we're all bees. Each and every one of us is buzzing about-
buzz buzz buzz.
The honey that we make is our lives. Experience has taught me two things...

KILLER BEES MAKE THE MOST DELICIOUS HONEY

...and LIFE is only as yummy as you make it!

Are YOU a Killer Bee?

THE R&R REPORT: HIGHLAND PARK PIES AND CAFE


Highland Park Pies & Cafe
Milwaukee, Wisconsin
4110 West Martin Drive ( at Highland )
414.933.9303
Hours of Operation: M-F 6:30am-5pm & Sat 8am-5pm


I didn't have to travel far to do my 1st R&R Report. In fact, I just walked across the street.

I have to tell you that having this charming little nugget is feather in the cap of our little Martin Drive Neighborhood. It's a family affair for Sarah Buzzell and the whole Metzger-Buzzell clan. And they treat you like family as well, from the moment you walk in the door! Beyond the yummy coffee [see Stacey's up-coming feature on Johnson Brothers Coffee at Stacey's Hot Dish] and scrumptious deserts, you can grab a quick, nutritious breakfast, or grilled panini and cup of homemade soup for lunch. Sarah says that in the Summer they take advantage of the season and source as much as possible from Wisconsin farmers. Right on!

Housed in a quaint, vintage English Tudor style home at the corner of Martin Drive and Highland, the cozy atmosphere is as delicious as the food they serve. Celebrating 2 years since they took over the cafe from [one of my favorite people] Maureen Bohorfoush , Sarah and company are about to "re-brand" the cafe as BIRDIE'S over the next month.


Since the cafe is a converted house, there are charming private rooms that can be used for everything from business meetings to baby showers. A few other things you should know...

  • The cafe has a diverse menu, including: brakfast pizza, wraps, paninis, salads, and daily specials.
  • Catering and delivery is available.
  • NEW website with menu coming soon!
  • The cafe is available for rental on off hours, for groups up to 70 people. Perfect for wedding showers, rehearsal dinners, holiday parties, and other special occasions. You can order food through them, or bring in your own caterer.

Stop in and see Sarah & family soon, and do yourself a favor. Have a Viennese...it's a lovely latte style coffee drink, perfectly sweetened with what else...? Honey!
