I have been here so many times and it has always been good the donuts today I went & I just could not believe what I seen I spend $20 on 2 bags of donuts, mango smoothie & dorito nachos. The smoothie was nasty very my donuts I have never seen my donuts ever look like this in the past 7 years & up going they look disgusting I really wanted to eat some but this is such a disappointment then the nachos had sloppy joe meat on it and a pound of sour cream the guy that worked there today had to take a picture of my order because he supposedly didn't see it on his system he really made this place look so bad i don't know if I would be returning after this & that is sad because I really loved this place.

Just bought a “frozen lemonade” from The Drive-Thru on Oakland Avenue and North Avenue in Milwaukee, WI. I thought for $6.59 it was going to be a slurpy-size lemonade. With tax, this watered-down lemonade with little sugar and lemonade flavor that consisted of pretty much 20 oz of ice particles mixed in with lemonade kool-aid came out to just under $7 in total. This is price gouging at its finest. I wouldn’t recommend going to this place unless you want to be overcharged and undervalued as a customer. I could have went to Speedway gas station and gotten an icy twice this size for less than half the price.

Doughnuts were the only edible thing we ordered! The burgers had a putrid smell and the meat was expired. My girlfriend and I feel nauseated.

I'm not sure why so many people have had a difficult or unpleasant experience at this place... I mean, it is in a very tiny space that is on the corner of a busy intersection, and you just have to be smart about what it is that you order. What I mean is I'm not coming here for a really amazing juicy burger! I do feel for those who didn't have burgers that even had edible meat. I also don't really expect the atmosphere to be five-stars in terms of like a regular restaurant. It's more of a fast food atmosphere, so I don't think people should be expecting the workers to spend a lot of time doting on them. 🤔🧐

I ordered a chocolate shake, Mexican corn, and two hot dogs. I ordered things that I feel like an equipped restaurant of this size could do really well! They did not disappoint! I also ordered their amazing donuts before I went to an art MeetUp event at the library. I enjoyed the food so much that I offered them up to my friends who joined me there, and they too, par took in the deliciousness!😋

I wish that I had taken photos of my food so that I could prove to you that I had a very enjoyable experience that actually has made me think fondly of the place ever since! This evening, I'm going to go back and support this venue because I'm saddened by the...

I would not recommend anything from here. Someone suggested this place because of the fresh donuts and I figured I would order some food, as well. The burger was dry and rubbery, the bun was just as bad, there wasn't enough ketchup to even tell it was on there. The donuts and french fries both tasted like old grease and didn't seem fresh, at all. I would give 0 starts if possible. I am very disappointed that EatStreet works with this place, makes me hesitant to use their service. I rarely write any poor reviews, as I always try to give places a chance but this was a complete waste of money and I felt sick from eating the few bites of...
