• Farm-to-table • Milwaukee

What started out as a butcher shop concept, has evolved and changed over the years to become a full-service restaurant, which was solidified with the restaurant's move to a larger space in 2022. At Bavette, the consumer will enjoy complete transparency of its food moving from farm to plate. Although the butcher shop has been phased out, the restaurant still works with the same farms, and uses the same high quality meats on its menu, which consists of a daily changing menu consisting of salads, sandwiches, small plates, pates, cheese, and charcuterie boards. The restaurant truly is a farm-to-table restaurant, sourcing not only the meat but most of its produce from nearby farms. In addition to the highly seasonal menu, there is a small store featuring chef-curated retail items, such as Wisconsin cheeses, local charcuterie, artisanal jams, pickles, salts, vinegar, and oil. Going along with the thoughtful menu is a select and unique offering of craft beers, wines, and cocktails.

    First visit; will definitely go back! Had the Pink Brunch special-it was delicious and actually took a dish of my main home and it is enough for two more meals ( I do eat light) Coffee excellent and my alcohol free Bloody Mary was spicy and flavorful. Desserts was churros with chocolate sauce almost as yummy as the ambiance/loved the pink curtains and all the Spanish touches and the pink cheetah! All servers were very warm and polite.

    Bavette has the best roast beef sandwich I’ve ever eaten, and there is no close second. It’s pricey but worth it. Absolutely delicious. Attentive service, casual but professional ambiance.
