Crema's Take

Vendetta Coffee Bar brings authentic Italian café charm to Walkers Point with a stunning two-level space that somehow feels both energetic and intimate, complete with excellent espresso drinks and creative signatures that draw serious coffee lovers back again and again. The vibe here is genuinely special—think old-world elegance meets cool Milwaukee cool—with spacious seating, thoughtful service, and a welcoming atmosphere that makes it equally perfect for lingering over a cortado solo or meeting friends over pastries and oatmilk lattes.

Gorgeous space, excellent vibe, plus outdoor seating, too. Plenty of seating where you’re not sitting right on top of one another. Very clean, including bathrooms. The espresso was excellent, with house made syrups! Lainey was very kind and welcoming!

If I could give this place 10 stars, I would. This coffee bar is hands down my favorite spot in Milwaukee—and honestly, one of my favorite places anywhere. From the moment you walk in, it feels like you’ve been transported straight to a café in Italy. The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and full of soul. Whether I’m catching up with a friend or hunkering down to get some work done, it’s always the perfect setting. The drinks? Phenomenal. Every cup is crafted with so much care, and you can genuinely taste the difference. And don’t even get me started on the food—fresh, flavorful, and consistently delicious. But what truly sets this place apart are the owners. They’re not just talented—they’re kind, welcoming, and genuinely passionate about what they do. You can feel the love they pour into every part of the experience. It’s rare to find a place that feels this special. If you’re in Milwaukee and you’re craving a little slice of Europe (with even better hospitality), this is it.

We had a lovely time in this beautiful Italian-style cafe, reminded me of my trip to Italy. I love the old-world charm of the place. The bartendress was super helpful when I asked if the Chai was vegan (most are made from concentrate that contains honey) and she let me look at the Rishi carton to read the ingredients, and it was vegan! And deeelicious! Rishi knows how to do tea right, and I'm glad Vendetta knows they are right to serve Rishi. We sat upstairs for a quiet conversation and the place eventually filled up on a Thursday night after work hours. It was acoustic open mic night and a lovely couple sang some great tunes. Parking can be a bit difficult to find as the neighborhood is busy, but don't give up, it's worth finding a spot to enjoy this cafe. I only had a Chai Latte with oat milk, but my friend who comes here often had a Panini that he said was excellent. Looking at their menu online, it doesn't appear they have vegan food offerings, but the vegan Chai Latte is superb.

This has to be one of the coolest coffee shops in Milwaukee. Everyone is really nice, service is fast, cool vibe. This is the real deal for coffee afficionados! The oatmilk latte, cortado & strawberry iced matcha are some of our favorites. We love to bring a book or laptops, grab a coffee and just enjoy the vibe and great coffee:) Tons of seating - check out second level if you want to have more of a hidden space. Street parking. Check out the events they have going on!

Yum! So I come into this place and it's like 10am and they have some kind of awesome techno thumping above. They have upper and lowers seating, and the place is really cool, overall. Great vibe, lots of wood, very eclectic. And the best thing about it is the espresso! It's absolutely delicious, not bitter at all; truly amazing. I had the tiramisu which is a seasonal drink. Check it out!
