Midwest Sad

Great spot in lower level of 770 N Jefferson building! I tried the brownie, Caramel Apple Cinnamon Roll, banana pudding and banana pudding with peanut butter. The banana pudding lived up to the hype I heard from a couple of friends! The version with peanut butter was good, too, but I wanted a little more peanut butter. The brownie is BIG and a great value. It is crisp and crumbly and chocolatey and tasty!The Caramel Apple Cinnamon Roll was creative and delicious and finished off with glitter for fun presentation.I want to go back to try other treats and specials, as well as lunch items I've seen them post about on the socials. They are worth checking out and open until 6:00PM. Be sure to catch the Sad Hour with 30% off their sweets from 3:00-6:00!

Hidden gemTucked away in the basement of 770 N Jefferson alongside Shah Jee's is this super cute little bakery. The owner is super friendly and the baked goods are delicious. Besides sweet offerings they also have fantastic sandwiches and other savory items. Service is quick and they have a pretty solid variety of items to suit your workday needs. It's definitely worth seeking out!

We utilized them to cater a meal for our team at Big Brothers Big Sisters. The food was delicious and plentiful. I heard many positive comments from our staff members. The chocolate chip cookies to end the meal were truly extraordinary.

Midwest Sad. First I loved the name. But then I tasted the food. WOW. There aren't enough superlatives to describe this fantastic food. It is nostalgic in that it includes some of the foods you grew up with, but it's innovative in that chef Sammy Sandrin reinterprets them in ways that make them feel fresh. Your mom never made egg salad as delicious as this. I'm guessing the desserts include the best Wisconsin butter, cuz you can't get depth of flavor like this without great ingredients. And in every dish, she seems to add unique little flourishes. I grew up in Wisconsin, but have lived my adult life in Colorado. Still, even in super sunny Colorado, the Midwest SAD can get me. When it does, I will have to reflect back on my afternoon overeating at Midwest Sad.
