I really enjoyed their ribs and the various bbq sauces they had, I could have skipped the pulled pork though.I stopped by at a really busy time and they got food out within 10 minutes so I consider it a win.Their fries are seasoned well and fried to a crispy perfection that makes them perfect for dipping into the sauces. You can get 2 different types of sauce so it's nice to try more than 1.Overall this is a decent little shop in the market and a good place to buy bottled sauces.

Came here in a busy Saturday in June and was expecting more from the reviews. We all agreed that overall everything was fairly dry. The cornbread, the pulled pork sandwich, the 6 piece hot wings, and the ribs were all very subpar. There were. A few pieces of ribs that I thought were okay, but the rest needed a lot of help. Unfortunately would not see myself returning here and should just stick to the seafood market/restaurant next door.

Oh no. As a Texan this is not bbq. I ordered the brisket sandwich and it was the worst I've ever had in my life. Dry and no flavor. The meat was bland and taste like it was reheatedin the microwave 100 times. Even the bbq sauce couldn't save it. If you're a tourist you'll be okay but REAL bbq ppl "hell no". This is not it.

I'm kind of surprised Pat's in the Milwaukee Public Market has so few reviews, but then again, I've visited a few times in the past few months and am just now reviewing! In the former Soup Market stall location, Pat's is a great addition to the Market. Their rib tips are not to be missed, and their pulled pork sandwich is also great! You get to choose from a variety of sauce choices, which are clearly described behind the register. Service is friendly! Pat's has a few counter/stool options if you want to belly up to the "Bar"-BQ! It's an attractive bustling little spot and I hope they're here for years to come!

Only grabbed take out from the public market once, but what I ordered was delicious. Got the 6 spareribs and smoked fries. The ribs were a decent portion and worth the $18 price. What was disappointing was the fries. Mediocre and nothing special. Service was meh. The young man who took my order didn't really welcome me or say hello, he just sort of stared at me waiting for me to order. The wait wasn't too bad, but they also didn't have a long line like many other vendors at the market.

Great food, great service. We ordered the two meat option with sides and choose the 1/2 pd. Pulled pork and the Polish sausage. The pork was wonderfully moist and flavorful, if you wanted to add to that they had sauces you could choose from for dipping. The Polish sausage was pretty great too. It wasn't bland, it's a bit peppery and it was coarse ground meat. For me, perfect.

Dude. This place is so good you can smell it from a block away. Tucked into the market place Pat's is a home run for BBQ. I had to do a quick look to make sure I was in Wisconsin and not in the south. It's legit. The 4 stars is because of the brisket, it's good, but I'll get into it in a bit. I got the 2 meat basket which was a good portion. I selected the ribs (of course) and the brisket at their suggestion. I grabbed the beans and coleslaw for my side. I also got the Pats house sauce, Memphis mad dawg hot, and the Alisha's special sauce. The ribs. Oh boy. Fall off the bone tender with a deep smoke flavor. I wanted a whole rack as soon as I took my first bite. No sauce needed here but they do compliment the ribs well. The brisket was interesting. I'm not used to brisket being chopped into little pieces more like ground beef. The burnt ends were delicious and the brisket had great flavor but it was dry. I wish they had just sliced it and given it to me like that. I think it may not have dried out and would have been more enjoyable. Instead sauce was mandatory here. Let's talk about the sauces. house sauce is a pass with better options available. Nothing special about it. Memphis mad dawg hot had the right amount of sweet heat. I would stick with this sauce all day! and the Alisha's special sauce was solid as well. Not as good as the mad dawg but a good option and better than the house. The sides were also very good. The beans were rich and flavorful and the coleslaw (not mayo based) had a great tangy flavor. Home run here. Next time I'm getting the ribs and maybe try the sausage. But this place is excellent!

The wings with the house sauce has always been my go to when I come to Pats at the Milwaukee public market. Today I decided to order the coleslaw for $2.99. I wanted something refreshing while I ate my wings. But once I got my bag and looked at the size of my coleslaw I was flabbergasted! I couldn't believe I paid $2.99+taxes for a small sauce container of coleslaw. For the same price you get a hefty amount of fries as a side from there. If I had know it was going to be this small I would've never order it. They 100% need to put the size on their menu. Instead of leaving us guessing how much we are receiving.

So I have been getting take out from the market place for years now.. amy favorite spot is the St. Paul fish market.. My daughter who made a review on the restaurant across the hall Pat's rib place she and her classmates were not pleased by the taste of their meal.. Also she witnessed so action.. Long story short she made a review on the restaurant page and this was the owner's response.. As her mother I'm taking as a threat but then it's my name and face on my Google account.. Wow the owner seems to be very sensitive about their food.. I can for tell you I taste it and I prefer to not spend money there.. A response like this I knew it was a rumor this isn't Oprah's family restaurant with this mentality
