This is unlike any “diner” you’ve been to before. The edgy and modern environment makes this diner a sweet spot in Milwaukee’s Historic Third Ward. The Chicago owners offer a breakfast all day and lunch menu, and it’s all served daily from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Besides breakfast classics like omelets, skillets, pancakes and waffles, Sweet Diner has an impressive lunch menu perfect for a business meal. There are salads, including “Berries and Chicken,” in which organic mesclun greens are topped with fresh seasonal berries, grilled chicken, candied walnuts and dark cherry vinaigrette. Sandwiches include a Croque Madame with homemade Hollandaise sauce and a Veg Head sandwich complete with greens, mushrooms, zucchini, tomatoes, red peppers, onions, hummus and Gruyere on a pita. Sweet Diner also offers delish drinks, including a Bloody Mary, a margarita and mimosas.
