50 Best Cafes near Whitefish Bay

“Good LORD I love this place. First, not to be all weird and quirky, but this place has such a cool and chill vibe. Without even trying. I can’t put my finger on it….but I LOVE IT.

Next, the coffee and food. In short, FANTASTIC. The coffee is top notch and I wouldn’t say I am a snob about coffee, but I would say that I am very particular and very good, not bitter. Regarding the food, I have already contacted my lawyers for my will and I have made it clear that when I die I would like my casket filled with the s’mores waffles so that I can live for eternity in paradise.

And don’t get me started about the chimichurri steak tacos. I will keep it simple so that the s’more waffles don’t think I’m cheating on them, but holy moly the tacos are so good. GET IN MY FACE.

Check this place out.“

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

“Stone Creek Coffee in Milwaukee has been fantastic to work with. Emily was incredibly responsive and helpful when I reached out about ordering coffee in bulk for my gifting business. She made the process easy and ensured my order arrived right on time for a wedding planner’s client gifts. If you’re looking for high-quality, locally roasted Milwaukee coffee and a team that truly supports small businesses, I highly recommend them. ☕️👏 Thanks guys!“

“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.“

“The burgers here are outstanding! All of them!“

“iconic business focused solely on the betterment of community and the people in it. every city should have places like this.“

“I tried 2 tasty warm items today a feta and spinach pastry and a chicken croquette. I would say these are some of the tastiest things I have tried in a long time. Flaky pastry with a buttery taste and a croquette with the chicken that was so flavorful! What a lovely place. They also offered other warm items, pastries and a lovely seating area and free internet. I will come again. Perfect for coffee, small groups, families or to do work on the computer.“

“Style Pop Cafe is the perfect name for this cafe. The decor is popping. The staff is so friendly and polite. My Caramel Latte and Blueberry Muffin were delicious!“

“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!“

“Excellent recent experience. We visited on a Thursday afternoon. That made our tour group very small, just two adults. Very welcoming greetings with the staff. The best part is the presentation of the tour. If you enjoy great presentations of history, neat tidbits you might not get from videos or books, this is definitely for you. Looking forward to return visits with friends and family. Highly recommend.“

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

“Cute little place! The drinks were excellent, (Thai tea & brown sugar boba) I do want to note if you like your drinks less sweet to opt for a lower sugar level as they are on the sweeter side, the boba was warm and the drinks were made well and fresh :) overall a lovely experience—would recommend!“

“Went in recently and was disappointed with the changes made to the breakfast sandwich. It used to taste like fresh eggs (whether it actually was or not) and was creamy and delicious. Now, it is a much bigger, square shaped egg that tastes like the carton eggs from McDonalds. Really took away from the flavor of the sandwich as the egg was so big and fake tasting. Still good drinks and good people.

Edit: I went in on 2/23/26 last, first time was 11/04/25“

“I recently discovered Rochambo, and everytime I've visited, Brian makes me the most delicious drink. He is always so bubbly and cheerful!“

“They are extremely polite, quick and talented. It’s a very welcoming environment. I got the Maple Pie Spice Latte warm, and I enjoy it. Not too much spice, and very creamy. Delicious!

Everyone is complaining about price, but it’s not anymore expensive then Starbucks unless you add an outrageous amount of stuff.“

“In Milwaukee again and decided to eat the Comet Cafe which seems to have a following. I ordered the compact turkey dinner, a featured meal. It is essentially a complete turkey dinner rolled into a ball and fried. Very efficient to eat and it was pretty good. The servers were attentive. I would return and try other things from the diverse menu.“

“Excellent Italian apricot pastry and espresso.“

“Bakery is always fresh, coffee always is delicious, and service is friendly and fast. My FAVORITE coffee shop in Milwaukee. They have seasonal menus as well and I always try something different and it's delicious every time. I put all my friends onto this place as well because it is just that good. I have been going here for years and don't plan on stopping.“

“Love spell available to Reunite with your ex boyfriend/ husband immediately Love spell to Break up a couple and return your partner Love spell to Fix a broken and unstable marriages Spell to Attract that special new or a specific lover My powerful love spells to Bring Back Lost Lover are effective. Losing someone you love is like breaking your heart in two pieces, especially when you are deeply in love with that person.“

“Nomad Coffee Bar is consistently good! Their food takes less than 20 minutes after ordering and it's always delicious! It's almost always my go to Brady Street eats before they close at 7!“

“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!“

“I think Stone Creek has amazing food and coffee. However their prices are quite frankly ridiculously high. It costs almost 22$ for a coffee and a waffle in my experience. The staff are extremely friendly and there’s a nice outside window for anyone with an animal. I just cannot justify giving 5 stars for what can be assumed as price gouging“

“They came to Myrtle Beach for the fall rally and let me tell you they were very excited 😊 they were so sweet and always had a smile on there faces I would tell everyone about them I hope to see them again in the spring for the rally those young men were very respectful and honest I love they way they carried there self you have so great people working for your company“

“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!“

“That Tandem Chicken is OUT of this WORLD! And the sweet potato fries too! What a gorgeous spot for a cafe! Thanks Caitlin and team!“

“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.“

“My friend and I visited SmallPie last Sunday on a whim and absolutely loved it. She had been previously for a slice of pie, but had never had any of their savory baked goods. We both got chai lattes and split the 3-cheese quiche and sausage/hashbrown pie. Everything was delicious, the service was friendly and efficient. At the end, we got pie to go and landed on the Milwaukee Mud pie…it was perfect in my eyes. So good! Will definitely be coming back!“

“Nice cafe right on 11th and Lincoln Ave in the heart of Lincoln Village
Great menu with alot of options
My fav is the tuna sandwich
But the crepes are a talked about favorite among others.
Great place to relax and enjoy good food and converstation.“

“Brim Cafe and Catering is truly an all-star and gem of the Milwaukee Area. They have graciously donated to Children's Wisconsin's Miracle Marathon the past few years, and made sure dietary needs are met in a delicious and incredible way! The Mediterranean Catering menu is a true highlight, offering incredible flavor! Pair that with the incredible service Brim provides, and it turns into a match made in heaven! I cannot recommend enough!!“

“The service here is amazing. The people here, especially Rose, are nice and caring. I like that I can get a cold or hot beverage. The food is great, too. And it's just a great place to sit for awhile. Very welcoming place.“

“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 little coffee shop with good drinks and pastries.There's not much in terms of ambiance as it's in the lobby of a building, in front of a set of elevators, but it's good enough to grab a coffee and snack.There is minimal seating, so you can't go with a large group, but fine if you're solo or with a couple of others.“

“Butterfly museum 🦋 hands down amazing experience!“

“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.“

“Food was incredible! Our server Claire was FANTASTIC! 10/10 recommend for a top tier dinner experience!“

“For all gelato lovers, Shoshovi's Cafe is the place to be.“

“Sat outside with a cool beverage. Breeze was blowing & read a book. It was great“

“The only reason I didn’t give this place 5 starts, which I understand is out of the staffs control, is that it was quite busy and some of the tables are a bit cramped. On a weekday, I’m sure that this is a super nice coffee shop. The food was good, the staff was understanding despite being a first time customer, and even though it foot traffic was high, the food and drinks were ready in a timely manner.“

“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!“

“5 ⭐️ Can’t believe we finally got around to trying Miss Molly’s this past Sunday. It’s only a ten minute walk from our house. To say the least, we were very pleased! Tried a number of different breakfast items (including French toast, yogurt/fruit, breakfast sandwiches and muffins). Each one was delicious. Service was friendly and quick for how busy they were. All in all a great experience.“

“I stopped here to grab some light breakfast for an all-day team meeting; everything was a hit! We got a gallon box of to-go coffee - it came with a little carrier of cups, stirrers, sugar, half and half, etc. which was appreciated. We also did a mix of bakery…some scones, muffins, morning bun, and croissants. Everything was fresh and delicious.

I also want to shout out the employees! They were all helpful and kind. Just a great vibe all around at Casera!“

“No Other Words But Absolutely Amazing..Theres A CBD Store 3 Mins Away From Home, Yet I Still Travel To Both Locations Just Because They Are The Best!From The Food To Gummies,Drinks, Food And Flowers, They’re Great!Customers Service Is Out Of This World Every Visit!Local Customer Since Mayfair’s Grand Opening!#SupportBlackBusinesses“

“My 92 y/o aunt treated us at the plaza today. Great food and amazing service from chef Peter and crew. Thank you so much for the memorable experience“

“This is a secret gem located downtown Milwaukee in what I call the Quarles and Brady building because their name is on top. But I am sure that’s not the name of this office building. However, Davian’s 411 has delicious food, friendly and fast service and affordable prices. The building also has a convenience store and gourmet popcorn shop with awesome, kind owners that run them. Each of these 3 businesses treat me really good and I appreciate them. Plus, the security desk has a great staff as well.“

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

“Best Asian Mart in the city! Wonderful people, great prices & product. :-)“
