The Spice House

Ready to spice things up? This purveyor of herbs and spice blends at the end of the Milwaukee Public Market is worth taking a look at! We bought a couple of things including a delicious maple popcorn sprinkle that makes me want to eat nothing but popcorn. Staff is milling around ready to help. This was a busy spot (popular products + the turnaround for the market); they could stand to have about twice the space!

I love fun spices. The Spice House has fun spices and regular spices. Located inside the Milwaukee Public Market, it's easily accessible. There is a huge selection of spices, and when I went, there was a sale. Cool!There are some nice spice mixes to use for fish, veggies, meat, poultry, basically anything you can imagine. I bought one a Tuscan herb blend, then I know I'm going to have to go buy more because it is perfect for grilled veggies. I also got a spicy hot mix for Christmas presents. I'm not about to try that one.There is basically something for everyone. I do want to go to their bigger store. They also sell online.

WOW! Back in the day I was given a gift box of spices from the Spice House and today I went to the retail store in Milwaukee. It was beyond fantastic! The employees were so helpful and friendly. And I stocked up on a few different spice blends. When I was checking out The young lady at the cash register informed me that if you buy the flat packs -like the garlic salt in the picture- online it ships for free! And all of their spices are available in the flat packs!I was pressed for time so I didn't get to shop for long. But I'll be back in May (I picked up a trip specifically so I can go back to the Spice House, Usingers across the street, and to hit up the MKE Public Market, I didn't have time today). What a GREAT shop! Thank you Spice House!

I was on a mission to find shallots as a substitute for onions, as those don't really do it for me in both the taste and texture departments. My stomach also doesn't seem to appreciate them later in the digestive process, either. After striking out at a couple different places, I walked over to The Spice House and within a minute, I found dried shallots and was able to be on my way.Staff were friendly and I was glad to be able to support a local business along the way. I will definitely keep them in mind the next time I need some spices for cooking, or maybe an unusual gift.

Very pricey. Their products are good and really enhance food. However the staff aren't very helpful with specific recommendations, and only encourage customers to buy more. My recommendation is the "lavender vanilla sugar"; I put it in coffee and tea!

I adore spices from the Spice House. Great quality, great staff, lots of variety. I cannot wait for the day that the Historic 3rd Ward Italian Spice is back!

What's not to love here? The spice of life can be found here on a pretty small footprint. It is Well organized. These seasonings can turn a basic chicken into finest gourmet entrée. The selection is not as good as the original location when it comes to variety of bottle sizes. No one person could ever use a whole 2 oz of ground habanero powder!So split and share. With 8 foodie foodie friends. They have kitchen gadgets and gift cards as well. 68/2015

One of my two favorite spice places in the United States, and of the two, probably the top of them. I cannot say enough about the Smokehouse Blend, I've used it on burgers, and porkchops, and chicken. I suspect it'd even be a solid choice for some devilish deviled eggs. It's smoky and spicy, with some paprika in there. I have used several of their blends, and whichever I've used has worked out wonderfully. The Back of the Yards blend works well in tuna salad. The shop is well laid out, and there are testers of each blend. There are several different varieties of curries and vanillas. The Public Market itself can get a little busy, but this shop definitely makes it a worthwhile trip. Highly recommend!

I was happy to support a non-political spice entity. Politics do not belong in business.

Basic and ethnic spices in the Milwaukee Public Market. Many flavors to browse. My favorite is the black garlic ramen pepper. The two women working the counter were friendly and helpful. Make a stop for something to jazz the tastebuds. And the whole market really is a good stop if you're near.
