8 Best Bakeries in Wauwatosa

“I had the LOUP DE MER Grilled Branzino, Lentils, Walnuts, Brocolini, Caper Vinaigrette 10 out of 10!“

“Got their cheesecake jars to celebrate a birthday and OH MY.. they are so incredibly good. We will be back to try more of their offerings for sure.“

“I’ve been a returning customer for the last 4 years & will continue to recommend Black Twig to everyone who hasn’t tried it yet. The bakery items are always delicious & fresh & the customer service is always perfect.“

“We tried Mochiring recently and although there was a wait for drinks and hot dogs, I expected it with all of the buzz about this place. The drinks were amazing, the hotdogs are a MUST, especially the number 10. The doughnuts were super fresh and flavorful, I wish they had more flavors to try but I’m sure that will come with time. it’s still very early in their opening process so I understand them working things out. I’m more than happy to wait for food there, it is absolutely worth it. We have been craving it since our first visit!“

“Stopped in to pick up some pastries for a client. Katie was a great help, everything looked so good! I love that you have dog treats too!“

“We love stopping in for coffee & their amazing bakery! Their soup is so delicious & they make a variety of breakfast items oatmeal/sandwiches/homemade granola and all sorts of drinks. This place is a must visit (and visit often)!“

“I’ve noticed a lot of negative reviews here—some fair, but many come off a bit entitled. I’ll speak from my own experience: I’ve been coming to Breadsmith since I was 6 or 7, and I’m 24 now. In all that time, they’ve remained one of the most consistently high-quality bakeries I’ve known. Their breads and treats are always fresh, flavorful, and thoughtfully made.

What really stands out is how little their prices have changed over the years. That kind of stability, especially in today’s economy, speaks volumes about their commitment to the community and keeping things accessible. I love you BreadSmith.“

“I have been to several other Stone Creek Coffee locations, but this was my first time at this one. It's on a busy street near the center of the Wauwatosa Village. It's a corner lot with an ample-sized parking lot. It has an urban chic design on the outside, with a patio out front. You can enter through the front by the patio or the side parking lot.

Came here Monday morning. There were already people relaxing at small tables or working on laptops. There are large windows that help bring in lots of natural light. Several different areas to sit at, depending on your need for quiet or a larger table. The order counter is up front, with lots of space for menus, bakery cases, and merchandise. The entire space has the typical upscale yet relaxed feel that you find at their other locations. Everything was neat, well organized, and clean.

Got a friendly greeting from the staff member. When I ordered my usual London Fog Tea Latte, I was immediately asked if I was looking for a Lavender London Fog, which I was. Added my usual instructions for a little vanilla, extra foam, and in a ceramic mug. They then even asked what shape mug I was looking for. That is the first time that I was offered a choice. Just another little tweak to make the experience better. I picked the latte cup (as opposed to the coffee one). (Thanks, Austin!) They usually carry a nice selection of bakery, and on this day they had the addition of a Sweet Potato Pecan Scone. So of course I had to try that.

They took time to properly steep the tea and did a nice job with the foam. The flavor and the texture were delicious. It was creamy all the way to the last sip. The temperature could have been a bit hotter. (It measured 123F, and my preference is 135–145F.) The scone was good but not great. The flavors were excellent. However, it was much denser than I prefer, and the maple glaze was actually brittle. Glad I tried it but wouldn’t order it in the future.

Another very good Stone Creek experience. With a couple of tweaks, it would have been perfect. Would definitely stop again.“
