Vendetta Coffee Bar - Walker's Point Diavola + Piccante Dolce = both must try Officially a honey on pepperoni pizza fan 5/5Since I'm not a coffee girl, I decided to split a pizza with my friend instead. We ordered the Diavola, but when the Piccante Dolce came out, we got way too excited and thought it was ours turns out it was our friends' pizza... which explains the two missing slices LOL. Thankfully both pizzas were so good and filling! Check out the full review on Instagram: @ratedbyaleena read more

Great spacious coffee shop with high ceiling and historical charm. Their WiFi works. I tried the pistachio latte with apricot croissant on a weekday afternoon. Definitely a good place to work remote or catch up with friends. The food and drinks came out quick, staff was friendly. Would definitely come back! read more

We were visiting from out of town and looking for a good coffee shop. We came across Vendetta and it looked promising. The atmosphere is rustic and industrial with some soft touches. It's just a really cool space. It's so beautifully lit with ambient and natural lighting. You could easily spend all day working or studying there. A couple even came in for a coffee lovers engagement photo shoot, and I know those pictures will turn out beautifully. I had a hot cannoli coffee and it is easily one of the best cups of coffee I've had. Certainly in the top 5. We also got a plain hot latte and it was excellent as well. The pièce de résistance for me was the sfogliatella the had in the case. I'm a former bakery owner and this is an incredibly difficult pastry. I was so excited to see it in the wild. To my knowledge, no one in my area makes them! It was perfectly done with a delicate ricotta and orange filling. I was so impressed by it. I would go back to Vendetta in a heartbeat for coffee and pastry. This is an absolute gem in the Milwaukee area. I went somewhere else for coffee the next day and it didn't come close. I'll be visiting again before I head out of town. read more

Stopped in to have an espresso martini with my husband. It's a very cute coffee shop, with enough sitting for meeting up with friends or studying! We tried the salted caramel espresso and it was amazingly delicious! They also have small bites, but we only came in for the martinis read more

Always my first stop when I enter Milwaukee! I came during the Thanksgiving weekend and it was fun seeing this cute coffee shop Decorated for the holidays. There was 1 barista working at the time and she was so welcoming and friendly. I ordered the cafe natalie and got myself some espresso and their new latte glasses. The drink was amazing! I miss Vendetta already! read more

They talk about coffee in the title but I'll admit I came here for the espresso martini. My friend's and I sat at the window and watched the street festival from the alcove window. The martinis were incredible. I tried two different versions...the salted caramel and the tiramisu. I loved both of them. It's a very quaint space that looks small on the outside but it's a really big space inside. Next time I'll check out the coffee or maybe I'll just stick to the martinis. read more

Coffee, Cocktails, and more! I visited Vendetta's for a night cap espresso martini. This spot was busy for a Friday evening! They offer a variety of games to play but also live music on Fridays. They have an all day coffee and tea menu, evening cocktail menu, as well as some simple bites. I saw a lot of people ordering the flatbreads and all looked tasty. The staff was extremely kind and even offered to make my cousin last month's special martini. Both the tiramisu and raspberry espresso martini's were packed with flavor with that cold brew kick. They were presented nicely and made quickly. Pricing I thought was very fair. I'd certainly come back to enjoy more cocktails or coffee here! read more

Vendetta is a great local coffee shop. The prices are so fair, and they have a great selection, including seasonal drinks. It is a very chic place with lots of seating, but can be busy on the weekends- you may have to wait 15-20 minutes for your drink at peak hours! read more

I'm an old fashioned old man and my happy place is a proper cup of espresso IN AN ESPRESSO CUP and SAUCER, as it is supposed to be served. Seems so hard to find now. One would think that people would realize we just can't keep wasting so much disposable nonrecyclable containers but the irresponsible practice has increased not waned. This throwback cafe serves coffee the proper way, and they have real croissant to go with in a lovely space. Servers do not make faces when I say I'm having the espresso in, why anyone would want an espresso to go is beyond me. It's an odd name though isn't it? read more

Very great coffee if you are in the MKE area! If you are not around for the morning, they also have great cocktails at night often with live music! I would give 5/5 stars if they have their pistachio latte (pictured) all year round versus a seasonal drink! I have friends that drive over an hour to come to the city for this latte. It is amazing!! read more

Great spot that I've visited a few times for cocktails. Most recently, we stopped in to share an Espresso Martini flight with Tiramisu, Salted Caramel, and a newly added Pumpkin espresso martini. They were all excellent, and the Tiramisu came with a lady finger ! The vibe is great for meeting with friends, going on a date, or enjoying some alone time. A musician was setting up as we left, so it seems they have live music Friday nights. Check it out! read more

What a cool new addition to Walker's Point! My spouse and I stumbled in on a Friday night and it was a wonderful surprise to encounter a full coffee shop and relaxing venue that was open late. We decided to skip another cocktail in the neighborhood and opted for espresso drinks. The menu was impressive and creative (rosemary, almond, chocolate and espresso in my drink). They also offer local craft beer and wine. The space is inviting and perfect for a group or even just a date. It seems they have jazz and live performances on certain days, which is another big plus. It has a lot of original character, and I'm glad to see a coffee shop focused on quality in Milwaukee. I hope they keep the hours--I will definitely be back. read more

I love this place for late-night studying. During my recent visit, I ordered a caprese sandwich and a hot Caffè Sicilia. I've been to their location in Wauwatosa before too. I ordered and LOVED their Caffè Florian iced (fun fact: I've even been to the Caffè Florian in Venice!). Unfortunately, my latest experience at Vendetta in Walker's was a bit mixed. My hot coffee was cold by the time I got it, even though I picked it up as soon as my name was called. I didn't love the caprese sandwich either--the tomatoes didn't taste fresh, and while the pesto was good, I think some basil leaves would have added a much-needed pop of freshness to the somewhat bready sandwich. The atmosphere was also louder than I expected for a weeknight, with a music show and a cribbage tournament happening at the same time. While not Vendetta's fault, it did make it a little less enjoyable. That said, I love their menu! It's extensive, with pastries imported from overseas and high-quality coffee. I've had their imported pastries at their Wauwatosa location--highly recommend. This location's upstairs seating is another big plus with a upper level perfect for settling in. I'm definitely planning to give it another try and order something new next time! read more

- good treats, ok service, nice ambiance - not too busy on a saturday afternoon - would come back for the pizza and other drinks Went here for a nice lil treat after seeing lots of posts, and it was a pleasant surprise. I got the Prosciutto Pizza and it was a nice hefty serving and pretty tasty to start the day. The crust had a nice crunch with each bite and was soft with each chew. It had a pretty tomatoey sauce and the flavor of the prosciutto, balsamic glaze, and arugula was a tasty combination. The dough may have been a bit much as it was quite filling and I needed some help finishing it! Also would have appreciated better cuts as I had to almost tear the slices apart myself. I got the Pistachio Mocha with the pizza and it was a good drink to wash everything down. The pistachio flavor was subtle and the mocha added a deep chocolate flavor to fill me up after the pizza! My pookie had gotten a Pistachio Croissant and it was a bit of a miss. I am not too familiar with pistachio cremes, so the filling was a bit of a surprise with how *unripe* it tasted. It was almost citrusy, but was not too tasty for us to finish. For her drink, she got the Caffè Pedrocchi for the mint chocolate flavor. The hot drink was also not for our flavor profile and also not what we were expecting. The mint flavored cream added a very subtle flavor when mixed in and made the cup just taste like a shot of espresso. While I was happy with my picks, pook's were not really for us. I would like to come back to try the other drinks and the sandwiches. The interior was nice and the loft set-up they had was a cool spot to be. Love how spacious it felt and that they are open late! We are also not coffee people, so take what we say how you will! Looking forward to coming back and having a more milky treat. read more

YES! I adored this coffee shop as they serve both espresso and coffee liquor drinks. We stopped in here before a ghost tour to grab the tiramisu espresso martini which I had seen advertised on social media. Let me tell you, it did not disappoint as it came with a lovely cookie on top. If I could go back today, I would (but I'm not a local). Therefore, if you are in the area, this is a must stop. The shop itself is very basic with large tables to remotely work and visit along with historic natural brick which is quite common in this area. Enjoy! read more

I recently attended a private event at Vendetta and wow what a space. The staff was so friendly and attentive, the drinks were delicious and the space was perfect. Great natural lighting and so much space on the main floor and the upstairs loft. They have probably one of the best espresso martinis that I have ever had. Run don't walk to try them! read more

Thank you, YES, as I found this spot due to excellent reviews in downtown Milwaukee on my visit, and I couldn't be happier that I did. The place is beautiful! Of course it smells divine when you walk in, but the lighting is lovely, the feel is classy yet comfortable and the folks behind the bar are so chill and nice. The menu looked awesome and by recommendation I tried a chocolate cappuccino along with a fresh baked (from Italy) chocolate croissant... and holy moly.... Both were DIVINE! The gentleman who made my drink was cordial, warm, and very friendly. There were folks in there having a meeting, some just sitting with a computer, I popped in to spend time to write a report for work but in the meantime, enjoying the flavor of the Capuccino, how airy it was, and the combination of the melty chocolate in the foam, seriously I literally felt like I was enjoying a Capuccino at an Italian cafe. You must try here if you love coffee and love a seriously attended cup. read more

I could sing Vendetta's praises all day! Vendetta is my favorite place to get coffee in Milwaukee. They always have creative seasonal drinks to try, and I have yet to try one I haven't loved. The baristas are super knowledgeable and friendly and always make a stop at Vendetta a pleasant one. The Walker's Point location is absolutely gorgeous, and has Wifi which makes it a workable cafe as well. I haven't been able to try the espresso martinis or negronis yet, but I plan to go back to try those ASAP. I believe they have live music on most Thursday evenings as well. I tookk a barista class at Vendetta a few months ago, and learned a lot about espresso and what makes a great coffee--and how to make one yourself. I'd recommend taking that class as well. read more

One of my favorite coffee spots around! Their coffee always tastes high quality and smooth, and they regularly introduce unique seasonal drinks. They have cocktails too, and I love that they accommodate options to make drinks decaf/non alcoholic. They do have some limited food options (croissants, pizzas), but I haven't tried them. I would primarily come here for the drinks and ambiance though and would probably choose to eat somewhere else. Vendetta is also a great place to do some work (free wifi, plenty of seating on 2 levels) or meet up with some friends (card/table games available to choose from). They do get pretty busy on weekends and evenings that they have events. If you are attending an event, I recommend arriving early to guarantee a seat! read more

the worst part about traveling is leaving behind a place you love. after arriving in milwaukee, my wife and i needed some coffee as a pick-me-up. luckily this spot was nearby. we got an espresso martini and a pistachio mocha and they were one of the best martinis and lattes we've ever had. the vibe is so cool too, we don't have a lot of these like converted industrial buildings back home so to be able to chill in this super cool atmosphere was great. the baristas are super friendly and kind as well. we came back here two more times out of the three more days we spent in Milwaukee. and we usually rotate spots so you know you're good when we come back all the time. the upstairs area and the one by the bay window are so cute too. nothing we got disappointed it was all so good. please come to San Diego we need it!!! read more

The pastries looked amazing as well, though I didn't try them one of the people I was with had a croissant and said it was melt in your mouth delicious. They also offer food and cocktails later in the day, so I will have to come back to try that out. The food list looked to be paninis and pizza which sounds like the perfect combo for me. read more

One of my new favorite spots to work and have a coffee or read and (also) have a coffee. I love this space with its Old Milwaukee feel to it. I'm not sure what this building once was, but it feels perfect as a fancy coffee bar. Every barista who has served me is always super friendly, helpful, and knowledgable. Whenever I'm there a lone barista seems swamped. I have no idea how they manage such service, all alone, and with plenty of customers in line. I've met up with a book club here and adventured on my own. The drinks are a bit pricey but well worth it. It is also in a fun area so you can pop in for coffee, go next door for a beer at Indeed, and then have dinner at Camino's. Highly recommend a visit. A great working spot for those "working from home" types. Just significantly more fun! read more

Stopped in for acoustic music night and had a drink. Very chill spot. Music was good. Drinks were well made. Our group of 3 easily found seats and enjoyed ourselves. They don't have servers so you order at the bar and pick up your drinks when ready. It's a small space so not a big deal. Come check it out if you're looking for a chill spot to hangout or do some work. read more

Vendetta is by far my top favorite coffee bar in Milwaukee!!! They offer breakfast and lunch food options with a wide variety of drinks/cocktails. My favorites include the tiramisu latte, lavender cold brew, and espresso martini (one of my favorites in town)! The summer seasonal menu came out with the strawberry matcha which was so delicious. The light strawberry flavor was subtle but paired very well with the matcha. Their biscottis are a really nice option to pair with your beverages, especially the espresso biscotti. The breakfast sandwich we tried was simple but had overall very good flavor as well. The staff is always so nice and they play the best coffee shop music (ex. Jazz, low-fi etc). They also have weekly jazz nights which is a fun evening activity to check out while sipping cocktails. 10/10- I will always recommend checking out Vendetta at any hour of the day for a relaxing and inviting place to sip and chill. Bonus points for being dog friendly and having a lovely outdoor patio ;) read more

I was introduced to this super cool coffee shop through a Yelp event and, for that, I am super grateful. It's a coffee bar with a large indoor space - lots of tables on the main floor and there's a second floor with additional seating as well. In addition to coffee and snacks, they have a bar with really good drinks, pizza, and sandwiches. We stopped by here after a date night at Glassnote next door for a bite to eat before we met up with a few friends for more drinks. We got a margherita pizza, which took about -25 minutes to get to us. You would think that for a coffee place, the food would be mediocre, but that is NOT at all the case! The pizza had a really nice thin crispy crust. The sauce was full of flavor and the olive oil on top was *chef's kiss*. The cheese was sparse (like a true Margherita), but the whole pie was easily one of the better pizzas I've had recently! They also had a live band when we stopped by, which added a very cool vibe and for a Saturday evening, it was super busy with all kinds of people - some socializing, some working. We didn't imbibe at this visit, but have had their espresso martinis before and they are truly top notch and I highly recommend! read more

Absolutely lovely coffee bar. It is a neat space with a small stage towards the front for night time events and an upstairs with additional seating. Lots of tables for catching up, chilling out, or getting work done. They have a great listing of coffee drinks hot and cold, alcoholic and non. They also come out as delicious as described. Having just arrived into town, this was my first stop at the recommendation of my friend. That first sip of latte was heavenly, strong espresso flavor that was not watered down or overpowered with syrup. A great coffee shop is such a valued find! If you are hungry they do have pastries and small sandwiches as well. I am so jealous I do not have a spot like this near me. This place is fantastic and I highly recommend a stop. read more

This is my favorite coffee place in Milwaukee, which is a tough competition! Everyone is so nice. I love how it looks inside - I consistently find myself inspired. My favorite espresso martini.

The first three reviews all refer to Vendetta as a gem. Gem is not a word often seen. Thus, if you're not suspect, I have some swamp land to sell you. I have been to this coffee/liquor bar twice, and both times the wait was inordinate, but even worse, the staff was flippant and unconcerned. We ordered two drinks, and it was more than 30 minutes until my wife, who is usually more patient than me, went up to the bar to see what the problem was. The two dudes working ignored her presence, their back turned, as if this sixty-one year old woman was invisible. By the way, the bartenders were gabbing and not mixing drinks. They didn't care in the least. We waited ten more minutes and left, sacrificing the $28.00 the two cocktails cost. It was a surreal experience, but since it occurred on two separate occasions, it became reality. Vendetta encourages revenge, and I suggest no one should give them business. Although I live in the hood and want every business to succeed, Vendetta should close and let someone who wants to succeed take over the lovely space. BTW, a band was setting up, and Vendetta would be a great place to listen to music if anyone employed gave a rip about the customers providing them a living. It's a travesty, and the city should have a department that closes businesses due to laziness and entitlement. The proprietors and employees should be ashamed of themselves. read more

I absolutely love this coffee shop. This location is near several other bars and restaurants, so definitely a great area to explore. I've been here twice now. The first time I ordered an Italian inspired latte that had a light orange flavor to it. I also recently attended the Yelp Community Event, where they served espresso martinis and pizza that they offer on weekends. The martinis were wonderful. I was also pleasantly surprised by the pizza which was delicious, especially the sausage and fennel pizza. I will definitely be frequenting this coffee shop, both for their drinks and food!! read more

Loft ceilings, industrial wooden beams and metal railing caught my eye, but the sign for "Best Espresso Martini" sealed the deal. Vendetta Coffee Bar is a beautiful coffee/cocktail space. In the evenings, it transforms into an cozy music space. The place is cozy and industrial looking in a warm way. We were fortunate enough to check it out during the morning on a Saturday and the full menu of drinks were ready to be served, no judgement! Some of the drink menu were espresso based which I don't normally come across, were unique and eclectic. A coffee tonic, espresso negroni and of course, the espresso martinis started off our day drinking in Milwaukee! "Espress-ologist" was super helpful on the menu and ensured we had a good time. The execution of the drinks were fun and elegant! Definitely recommend anyone who dig the coffee/drink/music scene to check this place out. Great ambiance and excellent service. read more
