Crema's Take

K & K Barista is a beloved neighborhood gem where the owners' genuine warmth matches the quality of their creative drinks—their seasonal caramel apple latte and strawberry frappe are standouts that keep people coming back. This intimate, independent Black-owned spot in West Allis has mastered the art of hospitality, with baristas who go above and beyond, whether crafting your coffee or helping a stranger with car trouble. It's the kind of cozy local coffee shop where you can linger for hours and feel like part of the community.

I loved their strawberry frappe! It’s a small cozy spot for coffee and the barista there was really nice. Definitely would come back. :)

I stumbled upon this place by accident. I was having car troubles and it stopped right in front of this shop. A man was out cleaning the glass. He assisted me with getting my battery off so I could change it. Very helpful. I went in for a coffee and croissant. Very clean, welcoming and friendly. I will definitely be back. Thank you guys for being my angles that day. My coffee was delicious as well as my croissant. I did not have time for a sandwich but I will go back this weekend for one.

We were staying at the home2 down the street so I walked over to K&K for some coffee. The atmosphere was amazing and the service was great too. Would 100% recommend K&K Barista to anyone in the area looking for a great cup of coffee!

Great coffee and hospitality. We tried their seasonal carmel apple latte. It was divine. The owners are wonderful people. It’s great having an independent, black owned coffee shop just blocks from our house. We’ll definitely be back! P.S. ignore the snobbish review from Scott W. It’s an old building and a fledgling business, what do you expect? He complained about a portable air conditioner and heater. It’s better than no climate control.

love to see local coffee shops thrive, and I was hoping that K&K Barista would live up to its high ratings. Unfortunately, that wasn’t my experience when I stopped in on a Saturday morning. It’s a small place with cheerful blue paint on the outside, a couple of large front windows, and white awnings over each. Inside is a small area with a few tables and stools at the windows. The space felt cluttered, with portable air conditioners and a heater hanging from the ceiling, which made it feel disorganized and a bit uninviting. I was the only customer when I arrived. There’s a menu board on the wall behind the counter. I didn’t see my usual drink, but I was able to order a London Chai Latte. It was well made — hot, with extra foam. I would have liked to order a pastry, scone, croissant, or muffin, but the only options were a box of donuts and a jar of cookies. I know many people enjoy this place, and perhaps most customers stop in just to grab their coffee and go. However, I prefer a café where I can relax, enjoy a pastry, and read a book. For that kind of experience, this wasn’t a good fit. Overall, not the kind of coffee shop experience I look for.
