Anodyne was a great spot for hanging out and studying. The espresso and tonic with blueberry was so good! It was floral, sweet and had the perfect tartness from the blackberry and espresso combo. The Chai was one of the best I've had, super smooth, flavorful and a good amount of foam. It's cozy inside with comfortable seating. The music is a tad too loud but enjoyable. The staff were super kind and welcoming and that stood out to me in comparison to the other coffee shops I've been too. I'll definitely have this shop in my rotation! read more

Anodyne is one of the best coffee shops in Bay View. It's light and bright with a relaxing playlist and friendly staff. There's plenty of seating and it's a great place to chat with friends, get some work done, or grab a copy of a local publication to browse as you sip your beverage. The beverage menu is large and varied. The honeybee latte is delicious, as is the iced chai (but you can't exactly mess that up). Their bakery selection is a bit smaller than other area shops, but the deliciousness makes up for it. While the blueberry muffin is a classic, I'd recommend the cinnamon chip scone. It's perfect for people who want a little sweetness with their beverage, but not too much sweetness. You'll really feel the warm, spiced cinnamon flavor. As for the price, you'll be paying a little bit more than other nearby national or local chain franchises. But, in my opinion, it's worth it. read more

Really good coffee and quick. Honey bee is my favorite. Right at the front of the public market.

Favorite coffee shop in all Milwaukee! Best beans, I love the Atomic blend for making lattes at home. The Bay View location has a special spot in my heart, it's such a nice atmosphere and the employees are so nice. read more

Just had the worst egg and cheese sandwich for $10.00. Coffee not that good either $30 plus tip for a very disappointing experience. Yesterday at Mexic 103 for the same price we had two amazing omelettes with delish salads & toast pls three margaritas! We will never go to anodyne again read more

We had an excellent cappuccino in our quick jaunt through Milwaukee proper. An excellent cup...

This is a great place to come and read or have a nice chat. The coffee is always great and the staff are always friendly.

This is a great coffee shop. Good music, comfortable seating, delicious coffee and pizza. The baristas are friendly and helpful. They also serve beer and wine! What else could you want? read more

Love this place. Not sure why you changed the aesthetic of the place though (firewood) it had a warm ambience. Only thing I'd suggest is drinks that are served hot or cold to put a H or C or H/C on the board. read more

I really enjoyed this location for doing work or hanging out! It has great lighting and plenty of seats. On top of coffee, they serve food and pastries as well. read more

What a delicious cortado today over here at Anodyne. I got mine with soy and lately at another Cafe I frequent they have been burning the milk. It sure was yummy to have the soy creamy and the right texture. High five to the barista. It's a cute spot and the coffee is fresh roasted and done right. They have indoor seating and a cute bar. Next time I'm trying the pizza. It's a concept I never imagined but usually after coffee and Journaling I leave to grab food now I can do both in one cozy spot. read more

Great setting. Attentive staff. Outstanding product. Pastry, coffee, tasty stuff. Highly recommended read more

Best iced mocha I've had to date and made the way I asked it to be. Pleasant staff, great coffee shop environment.

The service is amazing always great employees. but I think they should start making their pizza and salads before 4pm. Otherwise they have amazing food and drinks I recommend this spot for tourists in Milwaukee. read more

Made a road trip to Milwaukee before a Bucks game, and got a pregame meal here. A coffee shop that makes pizza is definitely a unique combo. Ordered 2 pizzas over the phone and was ready within 25 minutes. Upon arriving, I asked for a coffee recommendation and got the Maple Pie Syrup Latte, one of their seasonal drinks. The latte was amazing. Definitely can taste the maple in the latte, but it wasn't overpowering sweet. It was good. The pizza was superb, both of em. The Jimmy Mac is a unique one for sure, pizza with no cheese, but it was good with quality ingredients. The Southside salami was a solid second pizza option. Service overall was great. Everything was prepared promptly and friendly when asking for recommendations. It does have your typical coffee shop atmosphere. Free street parking too. Would definitely recommend for those in the Milwaukee area if you want pizza and coffee at the same time! read more

If you want great vibes, friendly people and great breakfast/lunch spot, you have to come here! I've had their iced coffee, chai turmeric latte and their cake and it was all spectacular! This location is great with a trendy feel to it and great decor and decorations on the wall. The chai turmeric latte was the best I've ever had (better than Starbucks, Colectivo, stone creek) while I saw delicious pizza being made in a pizza fire maker. The vanilla and chocolate banana cake had great unique flavor that was moist and fresh and paired very well with the chai latte I had. Lastly, it's average priced with most drinks costing $4 which is the norm. Overall, it's a must go! read more

Anodyne Cafe was my first indie cafe chain to visit after I landed at Mitchell International in Milwaukee (2/16/20). I liked the atmosphere and vibe. Folks there were totally laid back, no snotty hipster nonsense which I greatly appreciated. Very personable baristas. Tasty 8 oz mocha. Wished I could have had one of their hand tossed pizzas, smelled so good inside that my grumbling stomach started to protest. But alas, my MKE host had made dinner reservations for us elsewhere. read more

I found out about Anodyne when the Stoughton Coffee Break Festival was in town this summer. I was in love when I sipped their Midnight Oil Blend. So when I was in town, I decided to check out their nearest location (I believe four came up on the map, but I could be wrong.) Super neat environment, none of the stuck up Starbucks crowd you might instantly think of when you think of a coffee shop. I saw they make pizza, though I didn't catch when they bake it. This time, I tried an Iced Red Eye with an extra shot of espresso. Whoa. I've never had a sour and bitter coffee, but something about it was unlike anything I've ever had, and would most definitely try it again next time I go. Definitely my new go-to for coffee. Too bad I have to order their coffee online, but it's worth the wait. read more

Really nice location, conveniently along KK near Outpost Coop. A good spot to stay & hang out. The inside of the café is welcoming & comfortable, down to the professional, polite staff. read more

Terrible company. Let's count the ways. 1. Horrible to their employees. VERY low pay rate and they don't trust the hard working baristas enough to cash out their coin tips at the end of the day, so everyone walks home with $10-35 worth of coin change at the end of their $8 an hour/9 hour shift. I guess they think everyone can afford a car. Breaks are suggested to be "for the weak" in this work climate and if you ask for/take your regular 10 minutes every two hours everyone rolls their eyes. 2. Dull and loathsome owners. They opened the new "music venue" location but then said live music is just "too much" and that live music/bands are "obnoxious." When they opened their Public Market location they greeted everyone with a scowl (making fast enemies all around) and insisted on not having any music for customers or employees because they were "just looking forward to everyone working in silence." Employees were encouraged to not smile or be overly cheerful to customers because it was "shopping mall cheesy." 3. The coffee/espresso sucks. Every one of their roasts tastes like a watered down light roast coffee with a hint of lemongrass and metal. Lighter roasts should have MORE caffeine, but customers have said that they had to order 2 times the amount of shots in their morning black eye to get the same kick as the other espresso kiosks in the area. 4. Again, horrible to their employees. Unless you are higher up in the company they don't bother to learn your name and won't hesitate to say sharp witted digs regarding things out of your control, because your poor. If you have a family emergency or are late more than twice a year they fire you. They don't miss a beat pointing out how much milk they "give" you to train you- many times- as if you should pay them back?! If you don't NEED a job and your parents are paying your bills and you have the nonchalant attitude of Billie Eilish on a Sunday afternoon and possess complete disregard of other people and don't like good coffee and hate music you might just fit right in read more

Ohh. My. Gaud. Five frigging stars no problem, no question. Food was great. Customer service was great. Vibe was great. Prices were cool. I can't think of a single criticism. Okay, yeah. The bathroom was cold. Whooptie doo. I lived. They went out of their way to make a drink that isn't exactly listed on the menu. And they didn't get all stressed out about it. Yeah, sure. We can do that. Cool. They carry Rishi tea and have a big selection. Legit, I was humming and singing along to the music. It was a cool 80's vibe, very chill. Starship, Wham...ahh my youth. I wanted to ask what station it might have been but didn't knowing that I'd immediately be adding ten years to my age and I'd be required to get a Vera Bradley purse and a mini van. Ohh, an the jeans with white stitching and sequins and bling on the butt pockets. On Mondays the appetizers are a $1 off. These crostini are super worth it even if it's not a Monday. The garlic was my favorite! There is table and chair seating and a counter that abuts a window looking out onto the sidewalk. I am envious of their wiggly succulents in the corner of the counter. The pizza was really, really good! An incredibly fresh and bright tomato flavor. There is a bottle of olive oil, the good olive oil, that I dipped the crust into. The desserts here are from The Cake Lady. Do you know her? The baked goods are money! Usually, I can take or leave cake. Because I love pie. But this cake was complex, flavorful and full of moisture. I don't much care for frosting because it's so sweet. But with this cake I ate an entire fork full of just frosting. Yep. A fork full of frosting. I love that you can sit in front of the window and watch the world go by. It's an introvert's jam. They have tables and chairs on an outdoor patio, I'm looking forward to sitting outside and watching the world go by. After winter. Thank you Anodyne, I left full and very relaxed. read more

I had some time to kill on a Friday afternoon and stopped in at Anodyne Coffee Roasting to get some work done. There was free street parking (bonus!). I entered and was able to quickly order. Customer service was good. I had a beautiful (it really was pretty!) almond milk latte in a mug and a warm olives appetizers. The olives were okay, but the latte really made the trip. It was super thick and really flavorful. I worked there for about an hour. They were playing some fun hip hop music. Several families came in with their kids for dinner. I didn't try the pizza, but it looked like a big hit with the kiddos. It was cool to see families enjoying time there together. I liked my visit and it was a cool environment to work in. I'm definitely going to head back when I'm in the area. read more

Normally Anodyne is on point but today at the Walker's Point location it was terrible. Ordered 2 lattes to go and the milk was spoiled. Seriously, that is inexcusable for a place like this. I'm not a fan of Starbucks so I prefer to go to local places like this. Very disappointing. read more

Best coffee duh! BUT AMAZING PIZZA NOW? Had their pizza last week. Authentic Naples like pizza. Incredible crust and super fresh ingredients. Loved every bite and was so affordable. Best pizza in Milwaukee, or ever? They are open tues-sat 4:30-9 for pizza. 10/14/19 Amazing as ever. Love to see an all female pizza staff as it's always been. I even tipped the ladies ;) read more

While perusing wedding venues, we were given a list of local bakeries that were great cake options. We looked up the bakeries and sure enough, a coffee shop about a mile from where we were having lunch sold cake by of the bakers. Jackpot! Impromptu cake sampling on a Friday afternoon? Yes, please. The coffee shop was buzzing with people; lots of space for working, studying, and hanging out, wifi available as well. We were really there for the cake but ended up getting some coffee too. What a happy accident! I had the Honey Bee Latte - a latte with local honey and vanilla. SO AMAZING. I wish I could remember to sweeten all my coffee with honey; it was so different and you could really taste the honey. My fiancé drank cortado which he enjoyed. The cake was good - orangey and vanilla. I really enjoyed that local bakeries selling their products so we could try something local sweets. read more

Coffees are good but pizza is spotty. Tonight I had a feta and lamb Greek pizza, that was horrible! Lamb was burned, there was no cheese, no mint, and no sauce, it was dry.

Got the pizza special of the day which was the "Totally Radish-ical man" which had radishes and some sort of greens. Awesome name and unique flavor idea but somewhat underwhelming pizza. I was expecting the crust to be real nice and crispy since being made in a wood fired oven but it was somewhat chewy and limp. Decent flavor. I also feel their drink selections are kinda limited. Cool concept to serve pizza in a coffee shop just not the greatest pizza I've had. read more

I honestly have never tried the coffee or even sat inside and stayed for awhile. I come for the wood fire pizza! Holy delicious! Whenever I am in the mood for a take-out Arugula and Prosciutto pizza, this place is it! I can't get enough of it! I am in the process of changing gyms for a bigger workout because I'm addicted to this pizza. Ha! I've also tried the Margherita and The Spice and both are great. The Margherita is a fresh and simple taste and The Spice is definitely spicy...delicious, but very spicy. Give it a try! The main reason I don't come here and have coffee is that I will literally sit there and have to order the pizza every time because It smells amazing inside. I'm sure the coffee is great too, but I can't speak on that behalf. Get the pizza......and I will try the coffee eventually! read more

I try to support local businesses whenever I can so giving 2 stars isn't an easy thing to do. But, in this case, it's all I can give them. I've been coming in mid-afternoon for a couple of months and each time I hope the crew of barista's is heads up enough to create an ambiance of a young, urban cafe. That includes the sound level of whatever choice of music they prefer. Sadly, they do not. Excessive loud music is perfect when the cafe is closed and the crew is cleaning and closing up. It is not good when customers, who are paying to enjoy a coffee or tea drink while talking with their friends find themselves shouting back and forth. That's fine if you're in a club, drinking & dancing. It's not good for a cafe. If the goal of the owner/management is to move customers in and out quickly, then they are doing an excellent job. If the goal of the owner/management is to create a loyal customer base while expanding that base with excellent reviews and recommendations, that most likely wont happen. I truly hope the owner/management reads and responds to this review and at the very least, reminds their crew that customers do come first when you're working at a customer service job. Just to offer a little background on this reviewer, my son has been in the entertainment business for more than 30 years, performing at venues all over the world. I have been to more concerts and clubs than I care to mention so I do understand the difference between loud music and excessively loud music...when and where it's appropriate and when and where it is not. A cafe serving coffee, tea and pizza is not the environment for the latter. read more

In what looks to be a cute location. Great space inside. AH-mazing pastries and cookies (from a nearby bakery, so my local friends told me). I'm not a big coffee drinker and got an Italian soda, which was quite good. My friends I was visiting buy their ground coffee for at home, and I tried some of that the day before and it was lovely. A nice local coffee shop. read more

Came for a light lunch and afternoon coffee. Overall the place had a fun vibe and the service was good. The barista helped me understand what their specialty drinks were and pick something out -- it was good but a little sweet for my taste. I also got a sampler of bruchetta. I was excited to try them all but in the end they we're not all that special. I would come back for a coffee & the vibe but would probably skip the food. read more

This is a review of their food experience. This quiet, yet efficient coffeehouse in Bay View is a great place to come, kickback, and relax. You can enjoy great coffee and or pizza, that is as good as any in Milwaukee. It has has an eclectic clientele of locals, Hipsters, yuppies, and business women doing deals. All come here for the coffee, the vibe and good eats. After enjoying a bike ride on the South Shore Bike path, we were ready to put calories back on, and decided to get pizza and salad for lunch. We started with a simple green salad, mixed with a balsamic vinaigrette dressing. It came with raw sunflower seeds, red onions, tomatoes and chickpeas, and nearly overflowed out of the bowl. There was enough salad to share with three people. Next we ordered 2 pizzas. First, the basic Margherita pizza. It was loaded with a light red sauce, fresh basil and drops of mozzarella. The crust was crunchy and the pizza dough was moist, but not undercooked. We also got the Veggie pizza (sans the olives) that included red sauce, red onion, red peppers, mozzarella, and broccoli. Again, edges of the crust were blackened (how we like it) that gave a crackle with each bite. It was just a lazy lunch after an energetic bike ride. As my daughter commented..."is there any reason we continue to order chain pizza? I mean really, why go back?!?" Well said. Although we live out in the burbs, we will make the trek back again for the great handcrafted pizza, the atmosphere and the nice staff. read more
