14 Best Coffee Shops in Wauwatosa

“I’ve been taking my son here for about a year & he loves it! we live further away now but occasionally we still come here & make a day out of this wonderful play cafe! The coffee & staff are absolutely amazing!🥰“

“Excellent Italian apricot pastry and espresso.“

“I’m a proud regular at the Harwood Stone Creek. For the last two years, the baristas here— kind, funny, and genuinely attentive— have been part of my daily life in ways that go beyond coffee. They’ve helped start my mornings, celebrate small wins, and offered quiet empathy on harder days.

The coffee is consistently excellent. My drink is always made exactly right. The croissants should make any bakery blush. But what really sets this place apart is the people— behind the bar, at the tables, and coming through the door. Folks aren’t here because it’s the only cozy café around; they’re here because it’s the best.

Anyone can make coffee. Stone Creek makes an experience. A business rooted in curiosity, kindness, and care is one I’m genuinely happy to support and it’s a true joy that the coffee lives up to the values behind it.“

“Amazing coffee, and amazing employees! Only coffee I drink! All of our customers now get recommended to check out the Grafton location! They all have had nothing but positive things to say and are grateful for the recommendations!“

“Found this cozy gem and had a fantastic experience. I tried the 'Pink Lightning' pour-over and it was excellent—super flavorful. It’s the perfect spot if you're looking for a relaxing atmosphere to unwind. Highly recommend!“

“We used cranky Al’s for our wedding and we got SO many compliments! They were delicious even later into the evening, the tasting was amazing, communication was great, and they were very transparent about pricing which seems to be difficult to find in the wedding industry. This is the go-to place if you want donuts for your Milwaukee area wedding!!“

“I love their food and their coffee“

“Honestly turmeric latte is my fav ! But they make the best salad in the world I’m like addicted to it !“

“Very beautiful place friendly people I enjoyed my beverage. I will be back again. Sandwich was amazing nice and hot bread was fresh. I will give it a 10 out of 10.“

“Love this place perfect for having a me day“

“customer service was great 👍“

“Posting because nobody seems to know about this place. It is “hidden” right in the Nordstrom at Mayfair mall. Cool coffee drinks and chef-made bakery and grab-and-go food of surprising quality. You can park in the lot behind the mall and walk right in. ?“

“just wanted to give a shout out to this location. I made the mistake of ordering ahead at the wrong location and the barista willingly made me my drink and despite my error. On top of that, she wrote a nice message on my cup. She didnt know it, but I was having a bad morning so she made my day. I'm sorry I didnt get your name but thank your for being so kind.“

“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!“
