Coffee was pretty decent but for an empty place they made my coffee and left it in the counter…read more They claimed that they had called my name, but it say there for probably 5 mins until I went to check it. I ordered my latte extra hot, so that defeated that purpose. Anyway. It's a really big shop and tons of space located in a strip mall. Good relaxing area with tons to space to sit or relax.

A true little tea shop, which also sells plenty of ingredients (like rose petals) if you want to make your own blends. Bought a few teas to take home as well, but sadly they were out of the tea I liked the most, I believe it was something like mango turmeric. There is nowhere to sit! But you can order a cup of hot or cold from any of the teas they have. Wish this was closer to me!

I discovered them when they had a booth at a local craft show. They had several items for sale and…read moreI settled on the loose leaf Ginger Turmeric tea. Lisa was friendly and offered to assist me, but I was not in for a long shopping day that day. A day or two later, I used some of the tea and was greatly impressed, so much so that I made the trip from my home on the southside to Mequon to get a 4 ounce bag of it. My husband joined me on the trip and picked up some high-quality cinnamon. This will not be our last trip. Hope to see you soon, Lisa! Make sure you have the time to peruse all of their wares and if you have a moment you can sit in a comfy nook to check out The Food Network. If I have the time, I'd definitely check out their spices and get inspired for my evening meal. Next time, I plan on trying the sweet onion sugar as a glaze for my next ham. The hubs was impressed with their salt and pepper selections.

Cafe 1505 is definitely worth a visit if you're in the Mequon area. There's plenty of parking, the…read morespace is bright and welcoming, and I like that they offer both a sit down restaurant and a café area for quick bites, pastries, or takeout. The service was friendly, patient, and helpful with menu recommendations. I ordered the breakfast burger (no bacon), the salad sampler with wild rice, walnut chicken, and quinoa salad, and a jumbo Reese's cookie. The salad sampler was just as flavorful as I remembered, the burger was delicious, especially with the egg, and the cookie was so good I forgot to take a picture before eating it. They specialize in breakfast and brunch and typically close around 3 PM, so plan accordingly. If you're looking for a tasty meal with healthier options and a great dessert selection for those with a sweet tooth, I'd definitely recommend Cafe 1505.

Always friendly service and a comfortable place to enjoy some coffee and or food with friends. Has both a small cafe and a larger restaurant to pick from. Also a bar area that you can eat at if you alone. Hidden in a strip mall, might have to search for this restaurant... but it's worth it!

Date of visit: January 11, 2026…read more The latest edition of our monthly bakery stops brought us to Interurban Coffeehouse, the rare Foxtown outlet that doesn't actually have "fox" in the name. Points for the name, borrowed from the nearby trail and surely eliciting squeals of delight from the old school train crowd! Front of the house staff were very friendly and patiently explained the different pastry options on offer--many of which looked amazing. First we went with breakfast; my brioche egg sandwich was quite good though my husband found his english muffin sandwich to be bland and unremarkable. Unfortunately, their food system needs some work. I ordered the sandwiches for dine in with my name. The kitchen staff prepares the orders, hurriedly mumbles a name on their way out of the kitchen and unless you are standing in the right spot to hear him, you don't know if that's your order or not. Making matters worse, our food was prepped to go. Staff did offer to plate it, but it seemed silly to also dirty dishes and plastic containers so we declined the offer. The pastries are really where Interurban shines! I had half of my husband's cinnamon roll three days later and it was amazing. Like Costco cinnamon roll amazing. And my roasted pineapple cheese danish was phenomenal the next day hot out of the toaster oven! I was going to take a picture but I devoured it before my wits were totally about me, so you'll just have to take my word on that one.

The giant cinnamon roll immediately caught my attention, and it definitely lived up to the hype. It took me two days to finish, but every bite was delicious. Just be prepared for a generous amount of icing. I also ordered an iced matcha and an iced caramel latte, both of which were full of flavor. The wait was under 10 minutes, making this a great stop if you're in the area and craving quality coffee and pastries.

Could this be my favorite Colectivo location!? The inside is so spacious and airy, and the sunken…read morepatio is such a vibe. Sat outside there recently and it's just so welcoming. As are the employees. I'm always game to try their season lattes, so I went with the elderflower one on special. Loved the flavor. However I'll say, I always alwaysss ask for 'half' the flavoring / syrup and honestly that's plenty. So just a hot tip if you're not into anything overly sweet or flavored. My friend got the matcha latte and added a shot of espresso. That's a good pick here, too! It's been a bit since I've eaten of their menu but I'll be back for that because the options are great for a small cafe.

Colectivo Coffee in Mequon has been one of my favorite coffee and study spots for years, and it's…read morealways a pleasure to come back whenever I'm in town. The central location makes it super convenient, and it has that perfect blend of cozy and vibrant that makes it great for both meeting up with friends or get some work done. In the warmer months, I enjoy the outdoor patio. They have a fireplace out there, and it's just the nicest spot to relax and enjoy a coffee to catch up with people and it's also a dog friendly! the inside atmosphere is nice--it's cute and well-lit. The staff are always friendly and helpful, which just adds to the whole experience.

I stopped into Friendship Cafe after walking around the area following an appointment close by, and…read moreI was super excited to find a cafe near where I was. When i walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the staff seemed super nice, and were diligent about helping all orders ahead of me pretty fast paced. I've been dealing with a lot (hence the appointments mentioned) so finding new food places (and food places that are GOOD) always serves as a pick-me-up. I ordered a tuna melt, muffin, and hibiscus iced tea...that tuna melt was so good I completely forgot about taking a picture of it. But the banana chocolate chip muffin and iced tea were also some of the best morning goodies I've ever had. If it wasn't so much of a hike from where I actually live, I'd probably be an everyday regular here. Definitely delicious and would recommend visiting.

Could there be a better reason to stuff your face full of bread? Friendship Cafe and Bakery hits like home with a mixed staff who are warm, friendly and really are overjoyed to be at work. Some of which are actual graduates of the 12 month employment training program Friendship runs for adults with disabilities to get placed in amazing work environments to support themselves and make (guess what) FRIENDS. The cafe makes coffee drinks, refreshers, teas and other beverages along with every baked good you can dream up. Muffins, cake pops, cookies, cakes, bagels, strudels and delicious loaves of bread. This place also caters any mealtime and touts being able to provide menus that can be: nut free, Kosher, gluten free and dairy free. Customization is key and what they're there for! The distinguished Head Pastry Chef, Tara Forosisky-Benito, puts all her passion into her baked goods and breads. She's worked on this particular sourdough starter perfecting its makeup for a little over 5 years! And to make sure that the kitchen is always performing at the highest quality and speed, she's always 20 steps ahead in terms of prep and early mornings. I got a peek inside the kitchen after I heard all about their nonprofit mission and you could see the creativity popping and the drive to support some of the fellow employees was apparent. Oh, did I mention there's an art studio space, too? As if they aren't doing enough, they host art and little workshops like the popular "Art and Baking" for kiddos in the Fall. This cafe is remote work friendly (free WiFi!), has delicious drinks and baked treats all while supporting an important cause. Will definitely be making a bunch of trips back!

I love going to get a coffee, but whenever she is working the drive through she ruins the experience. I will not be returning to this Starbucks for a long while because of the lack of costumer service this woman has.

As someone who does frequent reviews of different restaurants. i want to share more of an insight…read moreon what I see. I have not only worked but have been in the food industry for over 15 years. many of times the establishment itself doesn't change, it's the people coming in and out. Depending on the customers mood they can also shift the energy in an establishment. If there is a place that may not have many workers but take in more than what they can handle it can shake up some things. This location seems to be smaller yet takes in a high volume of people. That can't not only be overwhelming for the customer but more frustrating for the staff. Drive, mobile, walk ins, and those who come everyday at the same time expect service to be the same every time, trust I know. It seems this location deals with a lot of entitled people who have an issue with waiting for anything. I would say more staff will equal less complaints about this store.

I also like the ample seating and decor.

I landed on the traditional breakfast w ham steak, 2 eggs over easy , and potatoes. I got what I ordered and a side of grease. I had to wonder if the cook soaked the potatoes and my ham in a pool of grease. The eggs and the toast was the only good thing that I could eat. My dad omelette was made well and was good. I've been to other First Watch around the US , but this location is the only one that I think could be improved upon.
