39 Best Cafes near Oak Creek

“My friend, Margaret, introduced me to Hillside. Great place to meet and catch up with friends and family. We went for the delicious, specialty coffee, but were more than tempted to see the yummy pastries available. They also have homemade breakfast sandwiches for sale. Staff has always been more than accommodating whether they're at the counter or as Barista. Also, look forward to their Cinnamon Rolls available only on Sundays. Rose, the owner, and former baker, has hit a home run with this place. She's sweet as a peach and her shop is very warm and welcoming. You'll find beautiful, hand crafted and delicate pastries to go with your fabulous coffee. Love this place and hope it's part of Oak Creek for a long time to come.“

“I was taken there at the suggestion of my client and had a terrific lunch. My omelet was delicious and filled with veggies, my American fries were crispy but not burnt, and my toast was just tasty. I definitely will be returning. Our service was excellent, friendly and attentive. The entire restaurant was very clean. I was so thrilled to be supporting a locally owned business. I would recommend Market Place Cafe to anyone who enjoys breakfast anytime and flavor filled, diner food.“

“We ordered ribs and they were fall off the bone tender and coated in a sweet BBQ sauce. The sides of grilled green beans and baked potato really made it come together. Great food good prices and a big menu to explore more. So many diners now close at 3:00 thanks for staying open for dinner.“

“Great food! Great service!“

“Excellent Italian apricot pastry and espresso.“

“Great space to work and connect with people. Great vibe. Very helpful and attentive staff. Clean. Definitely will be back!“

“We enjoyed your Bay View location today for the first time. Weather was perfect to enjoy really good coffee, cinnamon roll/biscuit&jam in your outdoor seating area. Staff is so cordial, food and beverage is incredible, and the customer service goes above and beyond. Happiness all around - smiles galore! 😁 Definitely our new feel good spot.“

“Great place to have breakfast/lunch I had Monte Cristo sandwich great flavor not to mention morning buns dessert“

“Anodyne ended up being the perfect wedding venue for us. The rustic meets modern downtown coffee shop vibes were just what we were looking for. Let me tell you, this place is nice during the day, but at night this place comes alive with the string lights, moody mirrors, and classic radio wall. My husband and I took moments throughout the night to just around and admire the dreaminess of the venue. We received so many compliments about the bartenders and the venue coordinator Erica. The bartenders were super friendly and fast, and one of them even told us at the end of the night how much fun they had too! Erica was AMAZING to work with throughout the year and a half of planning. From the very first email to the last goodbye at the end of the wedding, she was the reason that everything ran so smoothly. We had multiple meetings with her leading up to the wedding, and she was helpful and accommodating every time. She told us that her goal was for us to enjoy our day and not sweat the small things, and that's exactly what she did! We held the ceremony and the reception there, and the transition after the ceremony was seamless and took less than ten minutes. Erica and her staff also set up all of our decor. We left the decor with her the day before the wedding, and when we walked up the stairs into Anodyne everything was set up the way we imagined it. No, better than we imagined! They went above and beyond, and we would highly recommend Anodyne if you're getting married in Milwaukee!“

“My friend and I ordered the dragon and karma smoothie bowl. Both were so good and fresh! We also had their coffee and the avocado toast. The toast was so fresh and filling. The coffee tasted great. I can’t wait to go back!“

“Man what can I say spectacular drinks had the iced chai latte strawberry cream cheese crepe excellent service excellent ambiance with a Latinos twist ?

Kid-friendliness: Also have a really affordable kids menu big plus for me not to many cafes have a kids menu???“

“Really an amazing place, so impressed. Great bagels, cake, donuts, sandwiches, coffee, the setting is so cool. Hard not to enjoy yourself. The nicest staff. Very reasonable prices on the food, and beverages and antiques.“

“A long-time Cudahy gem. Just ate there 2 days ago. Eggs made perfectly, Hashbrowns crispy and sizzlin`, toast drippin` in butter. Huge plate! Ate here in morning, didn`t need anything else the rest of the day.“

“We enjoying going to Dia Café every week, great coffee great staff!“

“Passed through on a whim while in MKE and I'm so glad we did!! It's a cute space with indoor and outdoor seating, friendly staff and delicious food! I can't remember the exact name of what I ordered, but it had "gas station" in the title and it was a sausage breakfast sandwich with apricot jam and oh my lord, I had to ask a staff member if I could take a picture of the jam that they use so I could get some for myself.“

“I come multiple times a week for a reason. The coffee is excellent and the staff are great, but there are two small points that I love about Anodyne: 1) for espresso drinks to drink there you get a real cup not a paper one (good for the environment and for the vibe) and 2) 8 oz latte/cappuccino options (most places only sell 12 or 16 oz as the smallest- most times I just want a little coffee so this is perfect). Also the temperature of the coffee is always just right.
Milwaukee we are really lucky. I judge coffee in every other city against Anodyne.“

“Had such a delicious chai latte there today and a really scrumptious dill havarti and turkey sandwich (thanks, Mary!) I need to make a point to get here more often. Plus, today, some artists were selling their wares, so it was fun to see what was there! I had limited time so I hope this ad hoc makers market happens again when I can spend more time taking a look at everything. Also, the ambience at Hi-Fi never disappoints! I have been going to the cafe since it opened in the '90s; to me it is a staple of what an artsy and music focused coffee shop should embody-- true cultural gathering place to foster creativity and community.“

“For our daughter’s grad brunch we decided to have it catered instead of cooking ourselves & Green Baked Goods did not disappoint! Ordering was easy, communication was open & our order was beyond perfect. We ordered the biggest breakfast charcuterie board which was a huge hit with all the varieties of baked goods, & fun layout. The variety of mini quiches were delicious & the perfect portion sizes for a buffet style brunch. Also easy to serve. Cheesy potatoes & the French toast bake were so good I wish I ordered more for leftovers. Not a crumb was left behind. We will absolutely be going to & catering with Green Baked Goods again. 10/10 recommend this family owned business. Thank you GBG’s for helping us celebrate our daughter’s graduation in grand style! 💚“

“Great venue and a fabulous band led by Don Linke.“

“they have the best crema and chamomango out of anywhere I've tried. I always have to get something from here everytime I go to southridge“

“Great atmosphere, and a great Bookcrossing shelf of books to exchange or take.“

“The coffee and chai are excellent. The muffins are phenomenal. All of the staff members I have meet have been pleasant. I’ve been about a dozen times since they’ve opened and have not had a single problem. Really happy to have them in the community!“

“Fish was very Good! Just a nice place for food and close to the Park for US.“

“The coffee and food is great. The ambience is chill inside, the outdoor area is nice in the summer. My favorite item is the zucchini muffin! I have been coming here for years, love it.“

“Lived in Walkers Point for almost a year now and finally tried Ruta’s out! Good news and bad news.. good news is it’s DELICIOUS and SUPER fresh. Bad news is I can’t stop spending all my money here HA. Definitely try this place out, it’s a hidden gem!“

“Excellent food and atmosphere ❤️❣️❣️“

“thank u soon much for our Christmas dinner it was delicious, flavorful dessert as well was delicious 10/10“

“Food was great! However, we bought coffee mugs and when we looked at them later, we realized they sold us used, dirty mugs. It made us worried that we may have been drinking out of dirty mugs as well when we were eating. My friend tried to contact them about it and has never received a response. Hope they address that used dirty cups are bring sold.“

“the restaurant is clean, service is excellent and food is Delicious, I do recommend that cook do the dang thang👍🏾👌🏾🤌🏾🤙🏾“

“delicious food, great service !“

“Wednesday thru Saturday they offer the best rotisserie chickens in Milwaukee. For only $10 you get a juicy chicken and a side order such as fries, rice, or plantains. The food is made fresh as the orders are placed. The place is clean, everybody is friendly, the prices are reasonable, and my food was made quickly. I can't complain, except for the fact that they aren't open on Sundays. However, Monday thru Saturday, they are open from 8:30am to 5pm, and they deliver thru Door dash and Uber Eats. I definitely recommend!“

“The place was great for a small get together and the food was delicious“
