Date of visit: April 20, 2026 I worked just down the street from this location for several years, and while I did come here often, I never actually left a Yelp review. Not sure how THAT happened, but we'll rectify that now. I met an old coworker for a coffee before work on a Monday morning and remembered that I struggle a bit with Stone Creek and their coffee options. The menu had changed since my last visit and they stopped offering my favorite drink (the Mexican spice) years ago, making it a bit trickier to find something I would enjoy. They also don't list the prices or other sizes on the menu, just the 16 oz. I thought that maybe meant they were being "green" and only offering one size, but that is apparently not the case. Since they didn't list the other sizes, I stuck with the 16 oz and tried the white chocolate mocha, since that's my standard drink at Starbucks. The drink was very good, and as long as they don't change the menu further, I have a new drink to enjoy should I stop into another location in the future! read more

Very good place to hangout, read, or do some work. I did the coconut cream sweet foam cold brew. It was a perfect cold brew to start the summer day. read more

I have been checking out and reviewing lots of coffee shops in the Milwaukee area, and what I'm finding is that Stone Creek is becoming my favorite local chain. For context, I think a local chain has to have three or more locations. Their attention to the overall coffee shop experience really sets them above many other shops. This location has some great attributes. They have friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient staff. They offer a wide variety of quality beverages and food items. And the design and feel of the dining areas are upscale yet casual. I came to this location Saturday around noon. There were plenty of people inside, settled into different areas. This is also the location for various training classes. It was a short line to get to the register. Got a super friendly greeting. Ordered a London Fog Tea Latte (little vanilla, little lavender) and a special scone flavor, Gingersnap. Got the latte in a ceramic cup, and the scone warmed and plated. It took a few minutes to get the drink and food, which means they took the time to properly steep the tea. The latte was very good, though next time I need to remind them to make it a bit hotter. The scone had great flavor and texture, with little bits of crystallized ginger. The atmosphere was relatively quiet. No loud conversations, and nobody playing videos for the whole room to hear. It's a great spot to relax, catch up on work, or meet friends. read more

Swung by stone creek factory after getting off the Milwaukee Amtrak station. The place is unique in the sense that it's both a store and a cafe. They have great food and coffee options, however, the seating is a bit limited. When I went to order, it was still pretty early in the day but they were out of a lot of food options. I tried the cardamom latte. It took ages to get my order. The latte tasted weird, almost bitter, cz of the syrups they used. I was definitely left a bit disappointed as I was hungry but couldn't get a sweet treat and the coffee was bad. read more

The most charming and architecturally exceptional coffee shop. We later learned that this is the HQ and roastery location of the Stone Creek Coffee empire. It was a stunning find and a delightful way to start our morning. There are so many quirky items within their storefront to peruse. Some great vegan and GF options within their bakery case. The coffee selection was fun and unique as well. The cereal inspired lattes were great fun and had a wonderful nostalgia to them. I stayed classic with a drip coffee and it was smooth, hot, and strong. All of the things I needed. My sister tried the cinnamon toast crush inspired latte and appreciated the nod to the cereal by way of the cinnamon sugar sprinkle. Overall, a great experience. My only complaint was that the cup for my hot coffee was terrible. It leaked the whole way home and was disintegrating at the seam. read more

Classic coffee shop. Warm, trendy interior design. Lots of coffee options on the menu. I got a large iced horchata latte and the almond monkey bread. Both were kind of meh, honestly. Not much flavor from either. The staff seem a bit surly. Maybe it's a hipster Milwaukee thing. But I definitely don't feel welcome. It's a nice space to hang out in and if I wanted to sit and read this would be a good choice. read more

One of my favorite local coffee places! I love their espresso. It's well balanced and is so bold. I also really love their bakery items!! You can't go wrong with one of their stuff breads. So spacious and cozy to sit and read a book by the fire place and the employees are always so nice. read more

Great coffee spot downtown! Stone Creek is my favorite coffee in the city and while they have many locations around Milwaukee, this is the best one. It's the home of all their coffee roasting and is cozy and inviting. There is plenty of seating and tables where you can crack open your laptop or just lounge on. The exterior has the iconic cream city brick Inside you are greeted with a wood burning fireplace. The Learning Lab offers classes and tours on Sundays. They have a nice selection of bakery items to choose from too. The Intermodal train/bus station is next door so parking can be at a premium. Overall this is a great spot to get some work done or just hang out by the cozy fire while sipping on a delicious latte or matcha. read more

The espresso was good, but our cappuccino didn't have enough milk orfroth... so, yeah...

I visited Stone Creek with some friends on a morning to do some work. While this location is sort of "tucked away" upon entering I was so surprised and impressed by the ambience and atmosphere of the coffee shop! the shop was very cozy, with lots of seating and table areas for people to sit, chat, do work, and enjoy their coffee and drinks. the shop was lively, with the baristas very friendly! the coffee selection on the menu was extensive, with seasonal drinks and a variety of syrups and customization options as well. I ordered a Cortado with skim milk, and the presentation of the drink was beautiful and the coffee was excellent, not burnt, sour, or bitter at all! I did not try any pastries however they did have a large selection of sweet and savory. I would definitely return for a nice coffee and environment to do some work! read more

We have been wanting to stop by Stone Creek for a long while and it just hasn't worked out. We finally made it work this visit and now we wish we had always gone. It's delicious! The location is convenient with plenty of street parking and the building is large, spacious with seating, clean, and welcoming. It gives off chic, urban, hipster vibes. We loved it! The moment we walked in the wait staff greeted us with warm welcome and were immediately helpful with all that we needed. Furthermore, prices are reasonable and the ingredients are top notch! We each got the black cold brew and loved the rich toasty flavor! I got the caprese stuffed bread (pretty much a savory danish) and my husband got the sausage and egg stuffed bread. We both loved our respective foods and ate so quickly that we didn't think to offer one another a bite. Whoops! We sat outside on the outdoor chairs/tables because we were sweaty from a Run. So this is an option open to folks! The outside isn't super scenic, but it's comfy, spacious, and gets the job done. We look forward to our next visit to MKE so that we can stop by Stone Creek again. It is delicious and a whole delightful experience! read more

Found this gem on a recent work trip. Truly one of the most beautiful coffee shops I've ever been inside. Loved the variety of menu items, especially specialty latte flavors I don't often seen. (I got pistachio cardamom - so good!) They were sold out of the savory item I wanted, so I went with the ham/cheddar croissant -- a little slick, but tasty. I would have sat there all day and ordered even more if I had the time. Highly recommend! read more

Solid coffee shop situated perfectly by the Intermodal train station. Excellent place to grab some great coffee, snacks, and merch while waiting on your train or upon arriving in the city. I got a 16 oz drip and a scone for $8.40 and both were delicious. Great service and nice chill vibe. read more

Stone Creek is easily my favorite local coffee chain in the Milwaukee area--and I've tried a lot of local coffee! They always have creative and specialty lattes, which is something I really value in a coffee shop. One of my favorite drinks I've ever gotten at Stone Creek is the iced pistachio cardamom latte. Give it a try! The Factory Cafe location in particular is a great spot for several reasons: It has tons of seating inside for working, and has pull-up parking spots you can use if you placed a mobile order and you just need to run in and grab your cup o'joe. It's got lots of art to appreciate, and tons of Stone Creek merch to sift through when you're waiting for your order. The mobile order system has me stopping by Stone Creek a lot. You just order in the app, and it'll be waiting on the coffee bar for you in about 10 minutes. Make sure to sign up for the rewards system, so you get the points every time! read more

Great food, great coffee, great service! Really conveniently located near the train station.

I love that the cafe is conveniently located a minute away from the train station. While waiting for the train, I popped over for a quick coffee. The inside is really pretty. Everything is decorated for the holiday season with trees and lights everywhere. There is a good amount of seating. Doors require a key attached to a small block of wood which I thought was interesting lol They released their early holiday flavors at the time and the Maple Ube Latte got my attention. I love Ube and I've never seen it combined with maple. It was a good flavor. I might prefer the two to be separated though. The vanilla latte tastes like a traditional latte. I am definitely curious to come back to try more special flavors! read more

What a surprisingly lovely coffee shop. I met some people here to get some work done and the outside of the building is unassuming. Come inside and be transformed into a spacious, cozy, and unique cafe. Plenty of street parking, metered at $0.75/hour We grabbed a table right by the real and crackling fire. I got a black coffee, dark roast, and it was strong and delicious. My friends got a tea, a hot chocolate, and a baked good that I can't remember the name of but she said it was delicious. It certainly looked that way. Grab a quick drink while you're out and about or bring a book and stay awhile; this is a lovely MKE gem. read more

Rustic and accommodating place with joyful staff, big parking lot, vintage reformed mill, and a broad drink menu however limited to high fructose flavors from pumps, tried a basic latte which was decently brewed but still way too sweet, beans were not quite quality enough to make up for the basic sugar goo. I wish for house made syrups that are easier mixed and balanced with the java especially at the Starbucks prices. read more

The pastries were amazing! Good customer service and the ambiance is amazing. Super cute space.

The horchata cold brew was good. I have had better tasting cold brew but it wasn't bad at all. The horchata flavoring was decent. As someone from San Diego, California, the horchata flavor was pretty close. I also got a blueberry muffin that I had higher hopes for. It was a little dry and didn't have much flavor. The service was nice. The barista and cashier were friendly and even though it was busy they didn't make me feel rushed. The place is super cute. I loved the cozy feel to the inside. Overall, a better experience and atmosphere you would get at any Dunkin or Starbucks. read more

A+ coffee, A+ lattes, A+ baked good, and a really good homey fireplace with comfortable seating to boot. My fiance and I have also done the espresso 101 class here and throughly enjoyed it, although be prepared to come out of the class slightly vibrating from all of the espresso samples. They taught us how to properly make a latte, and even some basic latte art, we had a blast and are looking forward to taking the advance latte art class sometime soon. read more

A cozy gem of a coffee shop in Milwaukee. There is plenty of seating and a fireplace which is perfect now that we're headed into the coldest part of the year. Pastry/bakery selection is ample.

Stopped here on a whim and got a vanilla iced latte and pumpkin bread! Really good coffee and they had a cute spot to sit and look outside!

What a cute spot! I got an iced chai latte with soy milk, as it was later in the afternoon and didn't want too much caffeine. The barista was really friendly and the drink came out quickly. I loved the ambiance of the place - if I lived here I would definitely come often to work! It's close to the train station, so a great place to stop if you're coming in or leaving the city via train or bus. I'll definitely come back if I'm back in MKE! read more

Stone Creek had pretty good coffee. We got a whole milk latte and oat milk latte and both were good. The ratio of espresso to milk was to my liking. We ordered at the front for takeout and got our coffee 5 minutes later. Next time I would like to spend some time inside because it was open and well lit. It would make a great space to work remotely or catch up with friends. read more

I've seen this place a couple of times walking by, so today I decided to check it out. It's incredible. There a training room, cute merch, work space, and helpful baristas. Very clean, great atmosphere, and smells like amazing coffee. I tried the Summer Spritz iced coffee, the barista said it has a cherry aperol coffee taste (sans alcohol), I've never heard of anything like that so I tried it. It wasn't as tart as he prepared me for, and it wasn't sweet but I loved that it wasn't too strong or bitter. It wasn't too creamy either...it was just right. I'd try it again. Next time I'm in town, I definitely want to try the frozen blended coffee, he said it's espresso and ice cream blended. I would also love to see the cool "COFF33" pin as a sticker, just an idea. Until next time! read more

I live on the lower east side of downtown milwaukee and wanted to take a longer walk to a new coffee spot. The Stone Creek Coffee-- Factory Cafe by the Amtrak station is a little less than 2 miles away and was perfect for this. The location is cozy and just so stinkin' cute. There are soooo many options for beverages and all of their food options look and sound delicious. My boyfriend and I got a sweet foam cold brew and a cardamom spice latte. We drank them too fast (too fast in a "we're sad they're gone and we don't have more" type of way), but that goes to show how tasty they were! This is the headquarters location and hosts classes on coffee. We didn't get to take advantage of it since we didn't know about it before arriving, but I'm interested in checking it out in the future. I'm excited to go back and to also visit other locations! read more

This coffee shop is a friend's favorite, so while in the area (walking distance from the Amtrak station in downtown Mikwaukee) I had to check it out. I had a "Churro Latte" which was tasty and visually appealing. The service is very good, and I liked that they also have a local brand of kombucha that I like a lot. ( I had it on my second visit!). The place is huge and with a great rustic vibe; but, due to COVID, it is restricted right now so it's only grab-and-go. Hopefully in the future I'll get to take a tour, a class, and try its bakery. A great & very original coffee shop in the downtown area! Tip: Look in the box by the entrance, they give away (empty) coffee sacks. read more

One thing that I enjoy about Milwaukee is its abundance of coffee shops. This is definitely at the top of my list right now. Once you step in, you get a strong whiff of fresh coffee that fills the room. The natural lighting that peaks in gives it a very comforting and clean feel. The staff was very friendly and the service was very fast. I ordered an Ice Lavender Latte and a Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Muffin. Both were very filling and delicious! Very pleased with my experience here :) read more
