Story

The Restaurant

Le Rêve Patisserie and Café, opened in the summer of 2008 by Andrew Schneider and Therese Hittman, serves traditional bistro meals from breakfast through late-night dinner. Located in the heart of the Wauwatosa Village, Le Rêve is renowned for its exceptional design. Once a 100-year-old bank, the building has since converted into a spacious patisserie and café with classic leather banquettes, playful pendant lighting, and a signature zinc-topped bar.

Le Rêve offers a French menu prepared by our team of chefs specializing in European café and bistro cuisine. Guests can also choose an assortment of breads and pastries showcased in our custom cases, made by classically trained pastry chefs. Le Rêve has been featured in Martha Stewart Weddings, Martha Stewart Magazine, Milwaukee Journal/Sentinal, Milwaukee Magazine, Edible Magazine, M Magazine, and The Food Network. Le Rêve has also been awarded numerous accolades including Best New Restaurant, Best Desserts, and Best French Restaurant.

Le Rêve is available to host your special event. Our dining rooms will accommodate up to 80 guests.
