    Found this gem when I was looking for a local cafe to get a gift card for my sister who goes to a church nearby. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, this place. Housed in a former little school house, everything about it is charming. When you enter up the stairs there is a place to order your coffee, tea and other beverage options and they have the most amazing looking bakery. They also carry gluten free bakery which all looked soooo good. I ordered an Americano and my son ordered hibiscus blueberry tea. The girl behind the counter was super sweet and friendly. They have a nice seating area decorated with different tables and chair sets, orchids and other plants on the window sills, another coffee bar just without the bakery where they make the beverages. They have a shelf with games, a small table and chairs for little ones, the cutest table decoration of glass flowers in different tea cups. We played a few games of Connect Four, I did win one game but won't say how many we played. I found the prices very reasonable. There is more seating available in the lower level which according to the sign is also used for private events which is good to know. I wish I lived closer because I could definitely see myself going there quite often with friends. They did not have a shortage of customers and the girl at the counter greeted an older gentleman who ordered ahead of me by his name so obviously a repeat customer. I also like that they have art work for sale from different artists on the wall for purchase and have children's pictures displayed on a door. So many good vibes!!

    Might be my favorite coffee and bake shop in all of Wisconsin (I've only been here for a month though). The coffees were excellent so was the lattes, I also had the breakfast sandwich egg and cheese on a house made croissant ... best part about it... the runny yolk! Perfection! I also got an apple maple something bar... next level good.

    I absolutely love the Hillside café. They have the absolute freshest bakery items and you will always find something new and delicious when you go in! The staff is warm and welcoming, the atmosphere is cozy and welcoming. Delicious & fresh food, delicious coffee, and gluten-free options! Absolutely everything that you want from a neighborhood coffee shop.

    Very cute, smiling staff, who will talk you up a storm, and laid back atmosphere. Lots of GF options for sweets and serves Anodyne coffee. Service is slow, but it's because they're so friendly with everyone. Just take your time and enjoy browsing through their knickknacks!

    What a cute little coffee spot! Hillside is a great place to grab a quick coffee, stay and do some work or just relax and enjoy the ambiance. They have a large variety of coffee drinks and do have seasonal drinks. I have had their iced coffee (which they serve with coffee ice cubes - frozen coffee - to not dilute the drink) and various lattes and can say they are always delicious and just the right amount of sweet. Their bakery is also very good and they have a large variety of baked goods to choose from. Staff are very nice and friendly. The owner regularly comes and will talk to customers which I really appreciated!

    This was once a school, now a coffee house with amazing baked goods. There was a line when I arrived and it moved very fast. The ladies working are all extremely friendly and welcoming. There are several tables to relax and enjoy your coffee, and lots of windows with natural light and plants, a very calming place, and there is a whole downstairs as well. I was impressed with my bakery treat and will definitely be back to try more. Not pictured was my chai and that too was delicious, not over spiced, just the way I love it.

    This is the most adorable coffee shop I've ever been inside of. It's in a cute former schoolhouse. They have a variety of homemade pastries and treats to choose from at the main station where you order and pay. They then have you enter the main room, which has an eclectic mix of seating arrangements, where you can wait for your drinks. They serve either in to go containers or on China! Their coffee is delicious as are all their treats. (Don't forget to try a cinnamon roll! That's their specialty!)

    Ham, egg, and cheese croissant. Delicious!
    Gina G.

    A year later and I'm finally back at the Hillside Coffee House. Let me tell you, I am even more surprised and delighted at my experience here. The ham and cheese croissant was melt in your mouth delicious and worth the wait for them to make a fresh batch. The iced cinnamon roll latte was smooth and just the right amount of sweetness. The atmosphere in here is amazing, and the staff makes you feel like this is your home. So many smiles, so much kindness, and amazing smells. If you haven't been here yet and are thinking about trying, then step right in to your home away from home.

    Very cute place! It looks like an old time school house ! You walk up the stairs and see the shoe case! You can order coffee and desert ! I got the strawberry cream puff that's a bid selling item ! Homemade delicious cream I ordered freshly brewed coffee ! Tasted like great beans!! We bought a blueberry lemon pound cake slice to take home and enjoy for another day! Will go again to this local business !!

    my favorite coffee shop in the world! the staff is always super sweet and helpful and the food is unlike anywhere else. it's the best bakery and coffee you can find. the environment is also super cozy! lots of seating options in the downstairs and upstairs.

    Hillside Coffee House is a beautiful local coffee spot in Oak Creek. This renovated building from the late 1800s has served as a school (with photos from the 1930s classes to prove it!), city hall, and a variety of other businesses. There's plenty of natural light, tables, and nooks to be cozy in. They serve a variety of baked goods and Anodyne coffee. I'll be back!

    James Moran, the proprietor of Moran's Pub in South Milwaukee, recommended Bakehouse 23 to me. The…read moreestablishment offers an exceptional selection of baked goods. I particularly enjoyed the Heath Bar Brownie, which was delectable and complemented perfectly with a cup of coffee. The Heath Bar Brownie's exceptional quality has prompted me to indulge in it on two consecutive Fridays. I eagerly anticipate exploring the other delectable offerings at Bakehouse 23 during my next visit!

    Date of visit: March 23, 2025…read more How funny that we visited Bakehouse 23 on the 23rd! Totally not intentional but glad that we did stop by as both of the things that I tried were excellent. First up, location and staff. This is truly a neighborhood bakery so expect to pull in, grab some things, and dash off. I believe they have some tables for the summer but in March there's just no place to sit and enjoy your items, so keep that in mind. It's a family affair behind the counter with the young gentleman reminding me of helping my mom bus tables as a waitress many years ago. He was polite and efficient, two great things you don't see in young 'uns these days! Most importantly, the goods! Sundays are cinnamon roll days and that is where it's at, people. They are ready by 9 am and when we grabbed them this morning, they were still warm! We took them to the Starbucks on Drexel because of the aforementioned seating challenge and they were still warm and also delicious. Easily one of the best rolls I've ever had--and I am nothing if not a bread connoisseur. I also snagged a peanut butter cup for later (later being noon...) and it was phenomenal. Don't sleep on this place--honestly, how am I the first one reviewing it!--if you're anywhere in the southern hemisphere of Milwaukee, it's a gem!

    First time here. I was originally planning to drive to Brady Street and visit Sciortino's, but then…read moreI came across Scordato's. I'm glad I did. Food: I found all the classic Italian bakery treats I was hoping for, including cannolis, cream horns, and an assortment of cookies. Rather than trying to decide, I asked the person behind the counter to put together a selection for me. I mean, how can you go wrong? It's all good! Service: There were a few people ahead of me, but it didn't take long to reach the counter. The person helping me was pleasant, although not much for small talk. The entire visit took no more than five minutes. Easy breezy! Atmosphere: The storefront features large windows that let you see inside before you even walk in. They also bring in plenty of natural light, making it easy to browse all of the bakery items. The display cases were well organized and easy to navigate, so it was simple to get a good look at everything. After getting home and sampling my assortment, I realized I don't always have to drive downtown to Milwaukee to satisfy my Italian bakery cravings.

    Best Italian bakery around!…read more Everyone is always so friendly when I visit and their food is always delicious! 1) The wall of cookies is like no where else. They are excellent and I can never leave without getting at least a small container (you know as a snack for the ride home haha). They are always sooo fresh. I've tried most of them and they are all excellent. 2) The hot ham and rolls on Sunday are hard to beat. Their super thin sliced ham is so flavorful and their rolls are so fresh. 3) If you have not had sfincione yet just get some (if it's there- it sells out quick). Sicilian-style pizza and you'll thank me later
