LuLu Cafe and Bar
Mediterranean · Milwaukee, WI
About
LuLu has been serving Bay View since 2001, tucked into a former diner that still feels like a neighborhood secret. It's a relaxed spot with Mediterranean-inspired sandwiches and salads, plus homemade chips and pies. The bar lets in sidewalk air through big front windows, and weekend live music starts after 10pm. Smoking is permitted in the bar only; the cafe stays smoke-free.
You can grab brunch Sundays from 11am to 3pm, or happy hour any other day. The chalkboard menu changes weekly, so regulars keep coming back for whatever soup or special is up. Local art rotates on the walls, giving the place a lived-in feel that's hard to fake. If you're craving something sweet, the homemade pies are a must.
