AMAZING
1st FRENCH FRIES
Eagle Park Brewing Company, Milwaukee
Expertly seasoned, perfectly sized to maximize the crunch on the outside versus the fluff on the inside. Savory and not too salty, these have an option to add parmesan, but are great either way!!! An incredible fry!
2nd WAFFLE FRIES
Hot Head Fried Chicken by Crafty Cow, Milwaukee
These fries are exquisite!!! Such a savory seasoning on these with the right level of salty and a perfect crunch, I want five orders of these!
3rd BUFFALO CHICKEN TOTS
Tots on the Street, WI 53045
An amazing potato fritter with chunks of chicken and Buffalo sauce, with a touch of cheese too. Incredibly soft and tender, these are a must grab at any food truck event!
4th WAFFLE FRIES
The Dish Restaurant, Racine
It is remarkable the amount of flavor packed into this $3 box... What a perfectly savory and peppery seasoning, and a perfect crunchy outside with a fluffy potato interior. Purchased at the Franksville Craft Beer Garden's Food Truck Night
5th TATER TOTS
AJ Bombers, Milwaukee
These crispy tots are a crunchy delight, and whatever seasoning they put on these is so savory and addicting. Despite them being a touch too salty, they were so good that I did not care and kept on devouring.
6th BREAKFAST POTATOES
Mimosa, Franklin
Golden potatoes sautéed in olive oil, lightly but perfectly salted. A nice crunch in spots and a welcome tenderness elsewhere, these were a flavorful and textural delight!
REALLY GOOD
7th WAFFLE FRIES
Chancery Restaurant & Pub, Mequon
Perfect crunch, perfectly seasoned, fluffy insides. This is truly an amazing waffle fry!
8th OG TOTS
Tots on the Street, WI 53045
The original potato fritter for this truck, they’re are filled with a peppery ranch flavor that is very creamy on the inside! Absolutely worth the premium pricetag!
9th POTATO WEDGES
Growlers East Tosa, Wauwatosa
Very good fries!!! Perfectly salted and crispy! Simple but perfect!
10th FRENCH FRIES
AJ Bombers, Milwaukee
Really great fries with the same seasoning as the tater tots, but less overall season. With less going on with the underlying fry, there’s not really a reason for me to recommend these over the tater tots. They are good, but not the best potato option at the venue.
11th WISCONSIN CHEESE CURD TOTS
Tots on the Street, WI 53045
These tasted delightful, as a stuffed tater tot is a really novel idea. A lovely peppery and cheesy inside was super yummy. My complaints about this are purely logistic: there is no cheese curd to be found in these, they are just filled with small bites of cheese and $8 for three cheesy tater tots is... Difficult to justify. Obtained at their food truck at the Night Market in Downtown MKE!
12th BREAKFAST POTATOES
Black Sheep MKE, Milwaukee
Really simple but perfectly executed breakfast potatoes. Lightly salted and seasoned, with a golden brown crunch yet fluffy inside. These made me very happy at a venue brimming with flavor and energy.
PRETTY GOOD
13th TATER TOTS
Double Dub’s MKE, WI 53202
Very crispy tots with the right amount of salt and a nice amount of pepper to add some extra flavor! A very nice experience that does nothing fancy but nothing wrong.
14th FRENCH FRIES
American Family Field, Milwaukee
An authentic brew style fry with the right crunch and flavor, well salted. Fluffy insides, very solid fry with no complaints or incredible achievements here.
15th TATER TOTS
The Brick Pub and Grill, Glendale
Nice crispy tots with the exact amount of salt desired for tots. Standard but executed well.
16th NACHO FRIES
Taco Bell, Saukville
While the fries are a bit inconsistently seasoned and crisped, the seasoning is very good and the nacho cheese dipping sauce drives these to a different level with an added level of heat and flavor.
17th CHEESY FIESTA POTATOES
Taco Bell, Saukville
A crispy and seasoned diced potato with nacho cheese sauce = simple, fast, and effectively tasty. So good for such a small package!
18th TATER TOTS
Paulie's Pub & Eatery, West Allis
These are the typical tater tot you would find anywhere or realistically make at home. The right amount of salt, but just not doing much to differentiate or wow here.
19th CHEESE STUFFED SPUDS
Kwik Trip, Mequon
A convenient and poppable little cheesy potato fritter! A touch of crunch in the breading as well makes this a worthy grab!
20th FRENCH FRIES
Wonderland, Milwaukee
Fries were inconsistently seasoned, but the salt and pepper seasoning was good when it was on a fry. Otherwise, these fries were reminiscent of sad fast food fries, albeit without the sog.
21st FRENCH FRIES
Oak Barrel Public House, Milwaukee
A really solid brewpub style french fry typical of Wisconsin joints, especially for Friday night fish frys. Nothing extravagant, but flavorful enough to want to be finished.
22nd WAFFLE FRIES
Tiny Tapp, Chicago
Really hit or miss depending on how much or little seasoning they got. They have the right crunch, but some definitely leave some flavor to be desired.
23rd FRENCH FRIES
Blue Moon Brewing Company, Denver
Odd fries that work out in the end: they are not properly beer battered as advertised, as they have few spots of such batter. This is further evidenced by them being seasoned: a battered fry isn't traditionally externally seasoned. Despite the semantic complaints, the fries tasted really great with the combination of both. A great balance of external crunch with internal fluff.
24th TATER TOTS
The Explorium Brewpub Third Ward, Milwaukee
Just the average/typical tater tot to see here. Nothing done to enhance or ruin them, but cooked perfectly for the right amount of crunch.
25th SIDEWINDER FRIES
Inventors Brewpub, Port Washington
Potato wedge-esque that lacked a consistency of crunch or sog. More seasoning would have been desired for these instead of turning them into ketchup shovels. Good, but not great.
JUST OK
26th STILLERY FRIES
The Stillery - Grafton, Grafton
These fries were nice and crispy, but really lacked flavor and seasoning. These turned into ketchup shovels fast.
27th FRENCH FRIES
Camino, Milwaukee
Really thin cut fries where all the salt wound up in the bottom of the paper boat instead of on the fries. Hard to pick up and eat, not much going on with them due to the lack of salt, and quickly became ketchup and mustard shovels.
28th FRENCH FRIES
Big Sky Country Bar & Grill, Germantown
Lightly seasoned with a really good flavor that just left me wishing there was more of it. Had a nice crunch and fluff, but just wish there was a touch more care put in to elevate these further. On the doorstep of being good.
29th TATER TOTS
Milwaukee Brat House, Milwaukee
Solid tater tots, with a nice crunch when fresh, but turned soggy fairly fast. Lightly salted, and just fine overall.
30th FRENCH FRIES
Water Street Brewery, Grafton
Needed a bit more seasoning on these. Very okay. Nice crisp at least. Not much to say otherwise.
