Steam Cafe

The cutest coffee shop, a true gem hidden within Cedarburg’s downtown. This shop is easy to miss, as it’s located on the top floor of the same building as the winery, but promise me when I say it’s worth it to make your way up! Upon making your way upstairs however, one is transported to a tranquil, serene cafe with sounds and views of the river dam below. Love the extensive latte offerings available here. Almost every latte flavor I can think of can be found on the menu! Also, the shop owner is so wonderfully attentive and sweet. We were offered glasses of water in the middle of our stay, and also told to gesture to her if fellow cafe dwellers were being too loud. 100% recommend making the trip out from Milwaukee to visit this lovely gem. Will definitely be back.

We absolutely love this spot. The coffee is exceptional, and while the bakery selection is somewhat limited, everything is delicious. What really sets this place apart from other coffee shops is the atmosphere—it's uniquely serene. The tables offer lovely views of Cedar Creek, creating a peaceful environment. Plus, there's plenty of natural light, which makes it perfect for reading.

What a nice place, nestled above the Cedar Creek Winery. As I walked in for my introduction to this nice little place, there was a journal I ended up seeing and purchasing made from leaves of Indonesia. It's a very unique item, and will be a nice journal for me to inscribe some thoughts onto paper. The coffee itself that I purchased is Italian, and it had some robust, flavorful, great taste to it. Brenda was so kind and took great care of me. Outside was a live music event with a singer that sounded great (I'm usually not a fan of live music). But the breeze through the window, mixed with the sounds of the acoustic guitar and flavor of the coffee merged together for a nice experience. I will definitely come back my next visit to Cedarburg.

Brenda is the sweetest woman on the planet. She let us sample a tea she made and we ended up ordering it because it was absolutely amazing! She also educated us on the products from Italy and it was so great to see how sustainable everything was. Brenda kindly took a few photos of us as well because the view from her shop is unbeatable! It looks out onto the water and the whole atmosphere was so peaceful. We drank our tea in the AC then ordered some coffee to go. She has a delicious blended espresso made with gelato! I’ve never seen anything like that and it was sooo tasty. This was my favorite spot we visited in Cedarburg. I highly recommend you seek this shop out and enjoy a conversation with Brenda :)
