Comet Cafe - Cafe in Milwaukee - 1947 N Farwell Ave, USA

Really enjoyed my dinner. Food was amazing. The flavor was right on. Great comfort food. The bloody was just as amazing. The employees were all very nice and did a great job. Well done guys.

There are a lot of great brunch options. I dined here with a group. The breakfast burritos are tasty, I would add more salsa. The biscuits and gravy are dynamite. Make sure to get some pie. I will not order the egg cheese and bacon croissant again. It comes out as a big bag of grease. Not tasty. When I mentioned this to the server, she did not seem to care. The rest of the service was great. The mimosa was underwhelming. Clean bathrooms. Clean restaurant. Bicycle parking.

Comet is my go-to hangover cure. Their breakfast is awesome and, while it’s not exactly relevant to me, they do a great job catering to gluten friendly (not gluten-free!) and vegan diets. Last week was my first time trying something that wasn’t breakfast (and not hungover lol) and it was equally as good. Sometimes you just need a simple burger and this did the trick for me. The service here is always really friendly. It’s casual and they talk to you like they’re a friend. I’ve never had bad service here. The atmosphere is cool too—a classic diner feel with a fresh modern look. Don’t miss out on their pies either! A good variety of flavors on rotation and they’re good quality. Comet is a great neighborhood spot for brunch or dinner.

Make sure to get here early, the wait can get long on the weekend, and they do not take reservations. The homemade pie was delicious. We all enjoyed our food, but nothing I would highly recommend. The biscuit that was part of their special (Cheddar Bae) was pretty good though. The portions were large, we definitely needed to-go boxes. Service was nice and attentive.

As a person in the Hospitality industry I must say that the food is very delicious. Unfortunately, my last visit to Comet Cafe left me speechless by what the GM Bobby asked upon leaving. On Jan 29, 2024, I ordered takeout from Comet Cafe. I have dined in and also have taken out so this is not my 1st time patronizing the restaurant. I called ahead to inform the restaurant that the to-go portions sometimes are not equivalent to the portions one would receive as dining in and I usually order the same entree. After receiving the order that I paid for the GM Bobby ran out to my car and asked for a tip. Now in the Hospitality business and especially a to-go order, I'm sure tips are not required. I mentioned to Bobby my meal was around $18.00 I gave them a $20.00 bill and I did not ask for any change in return. Bobby said I was not required to leave a tip but he was asking because he was simply looking out for his team. I felt speechless because in a way that was kinda like my last cash until Friday and the fact that I spent it on a meal at Comet Cafe should speak volumes but isn't his business to know I spent my last. I felt somewhat harassed by the gesture of leaving a tip. Please help me understand why this was a necessary action from the GM. It's very rude to ask for a tip in any circumstance. I have dined in and have tipped more than 18% on a $40.00 bill before but for a takeout order that? I'm reluctant to dine or order in again. I hope this is not common managerial behavior and I hope Bobby does not ask other patrons for tips because that is bad Hospitality etiquette. I am an Afro-female who really like the food and appreciates the accommodations for my diet but the GM may need more training in Hospitality.

This cafe is one of my favorite places to eat in MKE. I’ve been here so many times and have tried multiple dishes. Everything from breakfast, pie, sandwiches, drinks and more are all great. The coffee is arguably the BEST…even when compared to some of the nicest coffee shops around, and only for a fraction of the cost. They rarely disappoint. The servers are also just down-to-earth, trendy, and genuine. This is a great place for a leisurely meal and highly recommend to anyone in MKE.

Comet Cafe is a great place to eat. My friends & I came for breakfast. I had the eggs, bacon, toast, and hash browns. All of the food was hot & fresh. The staff are very friendly and professional. They play great background music as well. Definitely recommend!

Comet Cafe has such a cool vibe & atmosphere! The staff were very friendly & provided great service. Lots of food & alcoholic drink options, including vegetarian/vegan & nonalcoholic options. Prices were reasonable. Milwaukee is lucky to have Comet Cafe! We went on a Friday night around 6 pm and it wasn’t very busy. We ordered two sandwiches for dinner and it was delicious!
