Gordo’s Bubble Waffles | Bay view

My daughter and I were driving around Milwaukee looking for ice cream…we found this place that makes fresh “to order” bubble waffles 🧇 and fresh mini pancakes or homemade cookie dough scoop to go on ice cream… it was the bomb. I highly recommend this place…everything was fresh! Try it out!

Nice place, just can’t see it being a regular stop. Parking is a big issue as well…

As I was drinking my shake I realized I found a hair inside 🫠 I expect a $10 shake to be good not with hair.

Shake was good.

Too busy making TikTok’s instead of serving customers

Space is too small for the amount of traffic they get. Parking is also difficult at this location.

Parking: Limited with many loading zone signs in the direct vicinity of the shop.

Didn't get a chance to order, no one behind the register for over 5 Mins. No one around and teenagers doing homework and no one could answer us.

Gordo’s Waffle Dessert Shop is a delightful stop for anyone craving a sweet treat. The menu offers a fantastic selection of waffle creations, each more tempting than the last. I tried the “Nutella Dream” waffle, topped with fresh strawberries and whipped cream, and it was nothing short of heavenly. The waffle itself was light and fluffy, perfectly cooked with just the right amount of crispiness.

The ambiance is cozy and inviting, making it a great place to relax with friends or family. The staff was friendly and helpful, providing recommendations without hesitation.

My only slight drawback was the wait time during peak hours, which was a bit longer than expected. However, the delicious flavors made it worth the wait. Overall, Gordo’s is a must-visit for waffle lovers, and I’m looking forward to trying more of their creative offerings on my next visit!

Gordo's Bubble Waffles: Located in the heart of Bay View (with a second location on the Marquette Campus), this trendy ice cream shop boasts not only a variety of ice cream scoops, but also their famous "Bubble Waffle" sundaes. The shop itself has a fun and welcoming atmosphere with friendly employees, striking artwork, and contemporary music. Although there were quite a few sundae options I would like to try, the one that stood out the most was their "Cookie Monster". The Cookie Monster is a scoop of cookies n cream ice cream topped with crushed OREOs, whipped cream, drizzles of Nutella & icing, all wrapped in a Bubble Waffle. I was immediately enthralled by the size and beauty of my sundae. To begin with, the crushed OREOs were not just a sprinkling of cookie dust, but almost entire halves of OREOs. Not purely for aesthetic purposes, the drizzle of Nutella and icing packed more sugar and flavor along with the light and fluffy whipped cream. Taking my first bite, I was startled to discover that the Bubble Waffle was still warm! In retrospect I probably should have expected that, but I've never had a Bubble Waffle and I was anticipating it to be similar to a waffle cone. The freshly made Bubble Waffle is not only warm, but soft and chewy with a slightly buttery flavor. Honestly, the contrasting temperatures actually works pretty well, other than the fact that it gives your dessert a short life expectancy due to the melt time. This brings me to my only two cons, which are both just personal preferences. First, you have to eat it quickly and I prefer to slowly savor my food. Second, I'm kind of frugal (I struggle with justifying $5 for Crumbl) and at $12 it is a bit pricey (ice cream scoops seemed on par with other area ice cream and custard shops though). I still say it's worth the indulgence to try at least once or on a special occasion. I know I'll be back for some of their other options at some point. Doughboy approved

This was my first time ever trying a bubble waffle, and wow Gordos made it worth trying! The waffle was made warm and had a very sweet taste almost melting in your mouth with the ice cream. They have a ton of different flavors. I tried the strawberry cheesecake and my husband got a Reeses peanut butter cup shake which was to die for. You can also get individual ice cream scoops or bubble waffle sticks. What a cool place!

Parking is street parking.
