Oakland Cafe

Love this place! They have the best hookah and coffee in Milwaukee! The owner and staff are very friendly. Service is amazing. It's chill enough during the day that you could come here and do work. On nights and weekends it's a fun spot to come with friends. If you're looking for a chill hookah spot that has good hookah, this is the spot for you.

I was just looking for a place to meet a friend near UWM before we attended a show there, and I wound up finding a place that I would enjoy hanging out at, and I don't even drink coffee!Oakland Cafe serves Colectivo coffee and tea, and I think I saw hookah, too. What I liked were the super comfy chairs that spun so you didn't have to push your chair back to leave the table and the chill music playing, which was mostly soft hip hop (think Digable Planets type of tempo) at the time of my visit.Seriously, I will be back.

I got a avocado smoothie with almond milk. It was delicious and beautiful. Very nice and attentive staff. I only waited a few minutes, but the owner thought it was too long so he gave me a larger size smoothie for free. I will be back!

The service is great! Staff is friendly and very helpful, knowledgeable and caring... they are quick, the hookahs are clean, nice and flavors are excellent. Grape Mint is my flavor!!!! They play all kind of music..

Great lounge, friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff. I am a regular here when I'm not in school at Madison. They make an amazing Turkish Coffee. Great study spot, social spot, or chill spot to just relax and enjoy good music and good shisha. Decently priced. Well worth it.

The two owners are real nice! The place has a great vibe and is real comfy. The hookah tasted great!

Employees here are great! Very accommodating, I get exactly what I'm looking for every time. Awesome place to go and hang out. Coffee and hookah is always good. They play great music. I come here at least once a week, and have never had one problem, only good times!

I could tell they didn't want me there. Turned up the music really loud. I was trying to work and only person there. It's drab. I wouldn't go again.

No idea why people say they aren't friendly- the gentleman who helped me was very kind! Attentive service too, and the coffee was great. I'll be back!

It is a nice cozy place, great mix of Arabic and English musicI loved the avocado and milk smoothie and the hookah was good!
