Lake Park Bistro is bringing back its Sunday brunch service for the first time since 2020.

Whether planning for a midday celebration or just looking for a way to make Sundays feel extra special, Milwaukee diners have another brunch spot to add to their list.

Lake Park Bistro, the lauded Bartolotta Restaurant Group-owned restaurant specializing in traditional and modern French cuisine, has announced the return of its regular brunch service for the first time since 2020.

Brunch is now served from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. every Sunday, featuring a three-course menu of French-inspired breakfast and lunch specialties plus brunch cocktails.

The menu comes from Executive Chef Amanda Langler, who assumed her new role at Lake Park Bistro, 3133 E. Newberry Blvd., last November. 

The customizable brunch allows diners to choose their dishes within three courses: appetizers, entrees and desserts.  

Appetizer selections include Soupe a l’Ognion, Lake Park Bistro’s signature baked French onion soup; Cocktail de Crevettes, a traditional shrimp cocktail; or Chevre Chaud, warm goat cheese with preserves, salad and a baguette.  

Main course dishes include Salade Lyonnaise, crispy pork belly tossed with frisee and radicchio with a poached egg; Traditional French-style Omelet; Pain Perdu, brioche French toast with pear butter; and Bouef et Oeufs, a grilled bavette steak with eggs.  

Dessert options include Coffee Pots de Creme, coffee custard with milk crumble and blackberries; or Crepe Suzette au “Lake Park Bistro,” white chocolate-filled crepes with a Grand Marnier sauce.  

Specialty brunch cocktails are also available, including the Empress French 75, espresso martini, St-Germain Champagne cocktail and more. Lake Park Bistro's selection of more than 100 Champagne and sparkling wine options, as well as wines by the glass, also will be available at brunch.

A three-course children’s brunch menu for guests aged 12 and under also will be available on Sundays. 

Sunday brunch reservations can be made online at bartolottas.com or by calling (414) 962-6300.
