Betty's Burgers & Custard has closed up shop at 1233 E. Brady St.
Operated by brothers Anthony and James Roufus, Betty's opened its doors in July of 2020, offering a menu of burgers, custard and globally inspired street food fare. The restaurant was named for the brothers' grandmother Patrina "Betty" D’amato, who lived on Warren and Arlington and raised her family there.
They shared the news with fans on Instagram earlier today in a bittersweet post which offers hope that there might be some new plans in the works.

Lori is an avid cook whose accrual of condiments and spices is rivaled only by her cookbook collection. Her passion for the culinary industry was birthed while balancing A&W root beer mugs as a teenage carhop, fed by insatiable curiosity and fueled by the people whose stories entwine with each and every dish. She’s had the privilege of chronicling these tales via numerous media, including OnMilwaukee and in her book “Milwaukee Food.” Her work has garnered journalism awards from entities including the Milwaukee Press Club.
When she’s not eating, photographing food, writing or recording the FoodCrush podcast, you’ll find Lori seeking out adventures with her husband Paul, traveling, cooking, reading, learning, snuggling with her cats and looking for ways to make a difference.
