I loved the food!More surprised that Kurt is a ghost here, no more food truck with custard I guess.

First time trying Milkcan tonight. Fish Fry was good but pieces were a little small for the price. I upgraded my fish fry to get sweet potato fries that were average but tasty. As I waited for my take out some amazing staff who were super friendly moved about the cozy establishment. Some of the meals they were delivering looked so good. The desserts which are made on site also looked flavorful and fresh. I tried the chocolate chip cookie and it was unlike I have ever had, with a unique texture and flavor. The outdoor patio was quaint especially with the colorful flowers all around. If you haven't been there before now is the time to check it out.

Came here because word of mouth and didn't disappoint. We got the buffalo chicken loaded cheese curds and it was really good. The cheese curds were a good coat and cheese was delicious. Good hot sauce as well. I got the Greendale Triple Burger, very very messy but really really good. Then my fiance got the Gold Standard and the BBQ and and sauce on the burger was delicious. Both burgers were juicy and salty. Then she also got the tres leche, yummy marshmallows and Carmel. Would come again to try other items on their menu.

My wife and I stopped in for lunch on a Saturday in late June. We were seated right away, host was extremely friendly. They have a nice menu with many options for both lunch and dinner. My wife had the Jacks Gold Standard burger, she optioned for a side salad instead of the fries that came with the burger. Her burger was delicious! The “side salad” was huge, everything was so fresh and crisp. She had the Apple cider vinaigrette dressing it was very refreshing on such a hot day. I had the hot ham and cheese sandwich. The pretzel bun was to die for, the sandwich was outstanding! I highly recommend stopping the Milk Can if your in the area!

On the smaller size so make a reservation or go early but the food is so yummy. A good chunk of items are made in house like the jams, syrups, buttermilk ranch, etc. I had the country fried steak and yummm! I noticed they also have a few vegetarian items on the menu.

Cute diner. Good service and food wasn't bad at all. Got the Mimosa flight which was good as well.

Upon walking in, I immediately loved the feel of being in a diner. Patio looked very inviting. That happy feeling soon left as we waited for 5 minutes to have a hostess greet us. When she finally came she asked "can I help you?" I thought how odd!! Of course you can help us by seating us at a table. We were seated and a waiter popped by to say he will be right with us. 10 minutes later he came to get our drink orders and we said we are ready to place our meal order as well. We had to wait another 10 minutes to get water!! Our mimosas weren't delivered until the food came quite some time later. I ordered the milk can melt which was quite tasty and a side salad. Don't order their homemade 1000 island dressing unless you really like dill. It was not good at all. My husband ordered the Pioneer and all I can say is WOW. SO much food. He couldn't finish his plate, which is highly unusual for him. He said it was good.

Pros:The Breakfast Burger included everything in it to make it the perfect burger, and it tasted as such! I would highly recommend it. My husband also enjoyed his burger.There was no wait to be seated and the burgers came out really quickly and still tasted freshly made.Clean restaurant with a cute diner atmosphere.The fries were good.Cons:I’d say the burgers were a little to small for the price we paid; I would have liked to see a bigger beef patty included.The sauce for the breakfast burger was definitely really spicy, so I’m really glad I ordered it on the side.

The Bloody Mary's are delicious. It's hard to find a good Bloody Mary these days. This is our new favorite spot for them. The Shrimp Eggs Benedict was fantastic. Being able to use the website to get on the Wait List is a big plus. We'll be back for sure.

Meh, food choices sound good but end up pretty lackluster in reality. I got a parmesan crusted grilled cheese and pretty much lacking the Parmesan and texture like leftover bread from the weekend.. and my wife got the chicken and cornbread French toast sticks. Also pretty meh for $16. A single chicken breast and 4 French toast sticks..
My experience was absolutely wonderful. The food and service was fantastic! A very nice, modern take on a diner. I also loved that they had oat milk there :)

What a gem!!! So glad I found this place! And I found it courtesy of a close friend; together we ventured here on a Sunday morning and it was a great experience. The wait was a bit long on a Sunday morning around 9am; we had to wait about 45 minutes until we got seated, but we took this opportunity to get in our morning walk, which we were going to skip to eat. So the universe said, no you still need to walk before you eat this delicious breakfast. Coming from someone who's not really into breakfast food, this is a must!! I ordered an ice coffee with vanilla cream and it was superb. The loaded tots were so fire!! Gotta get em. I got the big breakfast but instead of toast I asked for a bagel with cream cheese. It was all so good. The eggs were slightly overcooked from how I asked them but not a big deal. It's far too easy to mess up eggs. My friend loved her omelet as well. The service was so friendly and prompt as well. And there's desserts! Which if you were feeling on the fence about, the TVs featuring all the desserts they make and how will surely convince you otherwise. I opted for banana cream pie. The crust was luxurious. I could just eat the crust and be satisfied honestly. Parking is easy as it's in a plaza. Definitely will be returning.

This is a good breakfast place that I'd place a notch below the "big 4" best breakfast places in the burbs.The service was really good - attentive and friendly.The food was tasty. I had the Denver omelette and it was really good. The red peppers are a nice touch.My dining companion had the breakfast sandwich and was very happy with it.It would be great if they start to serve the hash brown casserole hot instead of just warm.

Had an excellent lunch here the other day! We had a Caesar salad, club sandwich and a chicken sandwich - all of which were very tasty. I highly recommended Milk Can to any one

Oh wow, this place is cool!! Located downtown Greendale which is cool all by itself. Very nice staff, cool decor and food is amazing. Started off with an Old Fashion and my wife got this Bourbon cookie milkshake that was sent straight from heavens kitchen, it was AMAZING!!! I had spicy chicken was was amazing and wife had the burger. This is a must stop if ANYWHERE in the Milwaukee area, don’t miss out!!!!! You can thank me later, trust me!!
