    Iced Cold Brew Oat-Chata
    Patricia K.

    Obsessed! I came by to check out colectivo on a Tuesday morning. There was no line when I arrived. So tough to choose what to order because all of the options sounded great. Ultimately went with the oatchata and the goat cheese and egg sandwich. The oatchata was the perfect amount of sweet. The egg sandwich was tasty but a little bit messy; the oil got on my hands quite a bit. Very relaxing atmosphere to catch up on some work and enjoy good food. I'd love to come back!

    I absolutely love Colectivo and make it a point to stop in whenever I'm in Milwaukee. Their pistachio matcha latte is my favorite drink and not overly sweet. I get it hot which is a warm and cozy option. They also have good iced sport teas which I've gotten quite a few times. The veggie pesto burrito is my go-to food choice. It comes with a side of salsa which has a slight kick to it, it's good on its own too if you don't like spice but I appreciate it. They offer lunch sandwiches and pastries too. It's a fairly spacious cafe with outdoor seating if it's nice out. The staff is always friendly here too

    Staying at Marriott downtown Milwaukee and was surprised to not finding a Starbucks around the corner, lol. It was a usual experience for a New Yorker where the green sign seems to be on every block. Asked the hotel concierge and she pointed me towards the Public Market and Colectivo across from it. It was a cold February morning, walking 3+ blocks for coffee seemed crazy but I did it anyway - the sun was out. Once inside, I was surprised there were many patrons. Not sure whether they drove or walked here. It was a busy cafe. I tried one of their scones - choco. Tasty with a medium roast coffee.

    I had to stop by my favorite cafe in its base location. I was in Milwaukee for work and picked up my morning coffee from this place. It is located in Third Yard location which had a lot of upscale restaurants, cafes and shops. I ordered a latte with almond milk as well as Butter Croissant. It was great!

    Beautiful cafe, but I was a bit underwhelmed. It didn't feel very inviting and as someone who was there for the first time (visiting from NY), it just felt like it wasn't worth the hype (TikTok). I didn't try any of the pastries but I did get a matcha. It wasn't my favorite. It could've just been the day I came. I'll give it a try again whenever I'm back in town and hopefully it'll be better! Again it's beautiful, love the art and how it's decorated. It's highly recommended, so I'd still give it a try!

    The decor is so cute and cozy. The workers were so kind and patient. My iced strawberry matcha was delicious and they also have a variety of pastries and speciality drinks. Don't go here if you are in a rush! I'd recommend doing an online order honestly. The line was pretty long and it took almost 15 minutes for my one drink to be ready. The employees work hard, so I obviously don't blame them! I'd definitely go back next time I'm in Milwaukee.

    Fabulously designed coffee shop in the historic third ward district (truly love the entire aesthetic) with a very creative drink menu! We heard about Colectivo from fellow Yelpers and this was our first experience. Service was quick. We weren't totally blown away by the particular drink we ordered - the salted caramel - didn't really have a salted flavor and was more milky than espresso forward. Will try more when we visit again!

    I love the vibe here. The food is good and the speciality coffee is even better! They have a few locations around the city with a mobile app to order ahead!

    We used to stop here pretty often because it was around the corner from where my daughter used to work. Great coffee, great outside seating... the service has always been a little meh. Next time we are in Milwaukee, I am sure we will grabbing a coffee from Colectivo.

    Almond milk latte and scone!
    raquel t.

    Visited Milwaukee in August and searched for a great almond milk latte. Colectivo did not disappoint! The latte was so good and let me tell you how delicious their breakfast sandwiches are! I went back the next day for another latte! Looking forward to my next visit to Milwaukee and getting my almond milk latte!! The barista was super sweet too!!!

    Really sweet people working - such a lovely start to my day! And the food and drink options are incredible. Great outdoor seating for sunshine and fresh air or indoor seating if you need that.

    Iced chai with almond milk.

    Such a nice coffee place. Large and open, lots of plants. Great service and the almond milk chai is delicious.

    I went in for an early morning coffee. I asked the barista for a recommendation for an iced pour…read moreover and she delivered. I enjoy coffee that isn't tart and bitter, which the pour was not. It almost had a fruity hint. The shop was cute with ample spots to sit down and enjoy the drink.

    This is my first time writing a review. The (co)owner, Colin Whitcomb, lacks basic professionalism…read morefor his customers.You will find the same sentiment in many other reviews. If you're interested in my experience, keep reading. I arrived today 9/23/26 @ around 11am to have a meeting with a United States Navy Sailor in uniform. It was 3 of us at a table. Soon after we all arrived I got up from our chosen table to order at the counter. The young female barista was making a drink and Colin saw me. Eventually I went to go sit back down because I assumed they were busy. 15 minutes later Colin came over to our table, left a menu and muttered something. Soon after that, he came back again in the middle of our meeting and muttered something again. He repeated in a very agitated tone, "You guys can hang out but you have to order something". Two of us told him we tried to order earlier, to which he replied something along the lines of "well we're wide open now". I had genuinely never seen or heard a barista act this way. I thought he's just having a bad day from the way he's walking around the shop, so I told him I'd go right up to order. Later, Colin generously brought over my toast and I said "thank you so much" and "thank you" as he tossed my napkins on the table. He did all of this in silence. Soon after, he put up a hand written sign on the door that said "We close at 1". An odd experience, to say the least

This one has a very…read moredifferent vibe and doesn't quite offer the elevated experience I've come to expect from the brand. Food: We ordered a couple of hot mochas with whipped cream. Unfortunately, they were some of the blandest lattes I've had in a long time. Even my wife commented on how lackluster they were. We also ordered a breakfast sandwich with egg, sausage, and cheese. It was disappointing as well. The sausage patty was warm around the edges, but still cold in the middle, and the sandwich looked like it had simply been dropped into the to-go box without much care. Service: One staff member was handling the register, taking orders, and preparing the food, all while doing their best to keep up with customers. During that time, another employee was stocking shelves and organizing bags of coffee. From a customer's perspective, it seemed like helping with the line and food preparation would have been the higher priority. Atmosphere: This location definitely caters to a different clientele. Since it's part of the Public Market, you don't really get the traditional coffee shop experience that Anodyne is known for. We found a couple of chairs at a small table outside, which was a pleasant place to enjoy our drinks. This location just didn't live up to the experience I've had at Anodyne's other cafés. It's probably not one I'd plan to return to.

You may see them in and around East Town and Third Ward peddling coffee and now healthy snacks. During the week, they are parked outside the Johnson Controls building (Jefferson & Michigan). It's the service that separates them from the others. Every morning Mike yells out, "BARRY!" Mike and Matthew (when he is there) really work hard on getting to know everyone and makes it a point to remember what you do, like, your interests or asks about your weekend. Ask yourself, when was the last time you experienced that? I usually go for their dark roast. Recently, I tried the pour over (it takes more time to make) and the flavor and quality is much better if you have the time. Today, I wanted to try the Booster Bites,on-the-go energy in bite sized portions made with nuts, seeds and dried fruit. They are supporting this brand by selling this from their cart. They also donate 10% of their profits to a charity each month. The accept debit and credit cards too. Bring in your own cup and get a discount. Lastly, their coffees are from supports free-trade. +++++ Service!!! +++++ Atmosphere (Mike and Matthew) +++++ Quality +++++ Supports community If you are around the area, check them out.

I love sandwiches and knew I had to try the pastrami. It was fantastic. I've been trying to cut back on caffeine and I instead went with one of their refreshers on the menu. It was I believe and 'Blue and Grapefruit' - and that wasn't my favorite as someone who doesn't really care for grapefruit that much. I got it thinking it would be diluted a bit, SO, if you like grapefruit, I'm sure it's perfect for you. I also got a peanut butter oreo pie and wish I took a picture of it...but I devoured it too quick to even think about it. For me, that dessert was the definite highlight of the cafe. I'll definitely come back on more weekends when I have a craving for pastrami.
