Crema's Take

Vendetta Coffee Bar is a stunner that transports you to a classic European espresso bar the moment you walk in, with elegant woodwork, stained glass windows, and an atmosphere that feels both timeless and intimate. Their espresso drinks are expertly crafted with creative flair—think unsweetened matcha elevated with house-made syrups like lavender and cherry—and the space itself, with its distinctive vintage aesthetic, makes it worth the extra drive even if you have closer options. It's the kind of place where you can settle in for hours with friends, pastries in hand, and actually feel like you've stepped into something special.

In my opinion, the most solid coffee shop in wauwatosa. I'd rather go the extra mile to come here than go to a shop closer to my house. Great place to meet with people, enjoy the day, and be with friends. The coffee is always actually good, which I find so critical for a place claiming to specialize in coffee. Thankful for the quality; they make their own syrups, roast their own beans, use good milk, and the baristas care about their craft.

The matcha is very good here, not sweetened initially. I like it unsweetened, and then if I am in the mood for something sweeter, they have a vast array of different syrups like lavender or cherry that I like to add. They also have a rotating drink menu, and make some classy drinks in fun glasses, such as martini glasses. The food is good, but not particularly broad. A few selections of sandwiches and pastries, which I am usually not a fan of personally, so that is individual! Staff is very nice, and professional. Very clean, very attentive, and welcoming. The prices are a bit higher than other coffee shops, but it is a large space with lots of outlets and tables and a common study spot for various types of students or a good work location. It is relatively quiet most the time, other than busy periods during lunch where people come to meet up and have conversation.

Honestly I don't really have anything negative to say about this place! First time here & they were packed (granted it was a Saturday morning). We just waited a little bit for a table to open up so it wasn't much of an issue. Loved their menu and the variety of options. BIG thumbs up because they make their own house syrups, too. Will be coming back

I stopped at Vendetta Coffee Bar on a Monday morning and was blown away by the beautifully detailed interior on the inside! The unique bar and stained glass windows make this cafe memorable. They're also dog-friendly, have ample seating, moody lighting, and relaxing background music. The staff is very friendly and my drink was delicious! I opted for a recommendation from the barista and had the seasonal drink, Cafe Zucca, made with locally-sourced pumpkin puree and espresso.

Walking into this room feels like stepping back in time, to a classy old time espresso bar in Austria. Elegant, majestic woodwork on back bar. Beautiful stained glass windows on back wall. Perfect espresso served in demitasse at standing bar for one dollar! Great service, great room, great location.
