The memory of enjoying custard at Kopp’s is one shared by countless Milwaukeeans. Appleton Ave., and it wasn’t long before the stand developed a reputation that resonated throughout Milwaukee and beyond. The original Kopp’s was located at 6005 W. The popular custard stand was founded in 1950 by Elsa (Moll) Kopp, who with the support of another local custard pioneer, Leon Schneider, began slinging butter burgers and custard to support her family when her husband's Parkinson's disease left him unable to work.
