The Perk-up is like Elkhorn's living room. The atmosphere is cozy and warm; it is fun to look at the vintage decor and toy collection, the displays which pay tribute to Walworth County's agricultural community, and celebration of family and Christian values. Collectivo is my favorite coffee, especially Del Sol, the morning blend: rich, full- bodied, but not bitter. Downtown Elkhorn is fortunate to have this business which draws people to the square.​​ read more

Great coffee! Fast and friendly service! Adorable shop in an ideal location! Definitely worth a visit!

I stop here whenever I am near Elkhorn. Chai tea ( loose leaves) is my drink of choice and they always have it available. A great location on the square and within walking distance of a host of businesses as well as the county court house. Back for the 2018 summer season and have been in to get reacquainted. OK IT IS 2019 and we are back for our specialty beverages. A great place to stop in rural atmosphere. Will wonders never cease? I love latte's but whole milk does not like me, as I am lactose intolerant. Leave it to the dairy industry to produce a new milk, a2, and this dairy family run coffee shop to have it on hand. A2 milk has a component removed (a1) which makes the milk digestible for lactose intolerant humans that otherwise would have gastrointestinal distress. Isn't science wonderful. Just ask for a2 for a of your favorite drinks. It doesn't get any better than this. Perkup also caters coffee service et el to groups in the area and delivers. Open, friendly and offers great drinks and snacks. It is the family owned small business to patronize in downtown Elkhorn. Stop in, right on the square, if you need help finding you way around this compact, full service, county seat. read more

Spent 8 dollars on a mobile order just for them to not even be open when it said online they were open until 2 and it was 5 minutes past the pick up time wish i couldve at least gotten a refund and i wouldnt have even cared but now i just wasted money read more

Great coffee and healthy snacks. Bring some thing to do or work on the puzzles they have set up!! I had the Butternut Crunch coffee just coffee. Nothing in it. Good beans. The folks there were also very friendly. My mom had the coffee cake muffin and she said it was very good. read more

The only thing that Tops the coffee drinks are the amazing people at Perkup Coffee. We moved to another state and the coffee is so good that we actually have it mailed to us periodically. They use the premier fair trade Colectivo brand. My personal favorite is Blue Healer. Devon and Laurie are the best! read more

I have been stopping here for coffee now for the past 5 plus years and I would never go anywhere else. They serve Colectivo and Door County Coffees which is the finest coffee in my opinion for coffee connoisseurs. The shop always elicits great conversations with regular customers in a comfortable, relaxed atmosphere. It's always the best way to start off my day with a positive experience. read more

I moved back to Walworth County in 2021 after 45 years and reconnected with one of my closest friends from high school. We need there regularly as this is a wonderful place to relax and enjoy our time catching up with each other. Devin is the best for helping you decide what drink you may want to try. Their variety of choices are wonderful and you can't go wrong with any choice you make. Check them out, you won't regret it. read more

Stopped by because we saw this menu on yelp, my daughters can't digest dairy and this picture of the menu posted 14 days ago indicated that they offered soy and almond milk as an alternative to milk. When we arrived we were told they do not offer those, because the woman behind the counter is a dairy farmer, and doesn't believe in supporting non dairy options. I absolutely support anyone having their views, and expressing their support...however this woman was actually kind of rude...and I felt assumed a political position when we just asked for dietary reasons. Perhaps the menu picture that offers non dairy should be removed, to prevent this experience from happe ing again. Had we known we would not have come there. read more

The service is great ! Very knowledgeable. Able to guide and explain what I could and couldn't have because of multiple food allergies. Cute gift stuff. Very relaxing friendly atmosphere. They make you feel like a old friend. The coffee is always amazing. read more

Don't know how new this is but it is a welcome addition to the Elkhorn square district. Right next door to 31 and down the street from Moys. They serve Alterra so that's a plus. Way better than any chain (mermaid) Java shop. Has a quirky vibe that I liked. Not big city (like Anodyne) but hey this is Elkhorn. I have only been once and it was solid thus the 4 stars. I'll be back and might up to 5 if warranted. For now it's good, it's local so 4. read more

Perkup Elkhorn - Coffee and cold weather equals happy - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Elkhorn, Wisconsin

Not only did we get coffee from Laurie but when my co-workers and I were in a jam she came to our rescue. The coffee was delicious and she had to whip out 17 drinks for us. Laurie was more than accomodating and made us feel welcomed in Elkhorn. read more

Their website clearly states they have soy, almond, and coconut milk....we were told otherwise when we arrived. They only offer A2 milk as a "dairy free" alternative, A2 is not diary free as it is made from real milk. As someone who cannot have ANY form of milk (lactose free or A2), I did not appreciate being told that they don't offer dairy free because they "don't believe" in milk alternatives. Sorry my body cannot digest it, just wanted a latte. Will never go here again. read more

My first visit was today and I will be returning when in the Elkhorn area. I was greeted very nicely. I am not a hot beverage drinker and was given several cold options. After selecting one, I was extremely pleased. Laurie has a very nice shop and the people who were there seemed very pleased and happy/ read more

They don't offer any dairy free options, so they aren't accommodating of lactose intolerant people or those who follow a plant-based diet. It's 2020, super disappointing that they don't even offer a single dairy free milk! They only offer A2 milk which is not good for lactose intolerance like they claim. read more

Love this place! The owner & staff are so friendly, and the atmosphere is super inviting !

I have been stopping here once a week and absolutely love the place. Excellent coffee and the owner is one of the nicest ladies I have met! She really cares about her regulars. read more

My favorite coffee place in the area, especially since they serve Collectivo coffee. I come here a few times a month, and by no means a "regular", yet the owner Laurie recognizes me and what I usually order! Very friendly staff in general and great service. read more

This coffee shop opened about 8 months ago. It is a very nice and comfy shop. We didn't get to stay long but they do have more than just coffee and bakery. They had some nice spots to sit down and relax. We ordered some coffee and bakery and all was delicious. The owner was very pleasant which is always a plus at a coffee shop. So stop by here and give them your business. We need more places like this. We will stop by here whenever we pass through Elkhorn. read more

Good people-Vickie is the star of the show. They won't let me sit unless I have a girl with me. Never a problem. Great addition to our town.

Love it! Great coffee and a relaxing place to enjoy it :) The staff is friendly and you can't beat a good cup of Jo for $1.50

A solid choice for a good cup of Colectivo Coffee and quiet atmosphere to read or chat with friends! Be sure to grab some bags of coffee to go and enjoy at home! read more

Perk Up is the perfect place to meet friends and enjoy a good coffee! Love the Chai Tea Latte with a good gluten free snack bar! Laurie is super friendly and efficient. She makes everyone feel comfortable in this homey atmosphere! We look forward to our weekly visit to Perk Up! read more

I love this coffee shop! While originally from SE Wisconsin, I haven't lived in the state for about 15 years, but visit often to see my parents. I tried this place on one of my visits and was quite pleased. Great coffee (loved my mocha!), cute place, nice employees, much more spacious inside than it appears outside (it extends backwards farther than you'd think). Good wifi, varied seating (chairs, tables, couches, armchairs), nice atmosphere. Well worth a visit. read more

Great fun friendly coffehouse. They carry Colectivo coffee and Rishi teas! We will be bacl!

I worked with Laurie for a coffee delivery at Camp Wandawega for a corporate retreat. She delivered coffee, plus all the fixings, for 50 people over several days. I love that they offered Collectivo, since they make a great variety of roasts. She was on time, and very pleasant to work with. read more

First time here today stopped after lunch walking bye cute little place owner was working as was friendly and coffee was excellent will definitely be back read more

My "go to" coffee shop in Elkhorn. Staff is always friendly, great place to meet someone for a cup of coffee or tea (great selection of tea) - great seating area to sit and chat! read more

Perkup Elkhorn provided coffee to our wedding guests last weekend. We got married at Camp Wandawega and wanted fresh and local coffee for our guests to enjoy on both Saturday and Sunday. We worked with Laurie to arrange coffee delivery on both days, and she was a complete pleasure to work with! She brought two types of coffee in addition to all needed cups, lids, sugars, and cream. She came on time both days and was great to communicate with! Additionally, the coffee was delicious, and we got a lot of compliments on it from our guests. We would highly recommend Perkup to others. read more

Needed my morning cup of coffee desperately and Perk Up was just around the corner so I stopped in. Just a plain cup of coffee with a splash of cream is all I need and it definitely hit the spot! Perk Up is a cute and cozy little shop. Love the iPad system and credit card terminal -very advanced! read more

This coffee shop is absolutely fantastic! I happened upon it after attending the Elkhorn Flea Market a few years ago. I had an excellent Caramel Macchiato and the best ginger snap cookie I have ever had. I had honestly kind of forgotten about it, but this Saturday we took a ride as there isn't a coffee shop in our neighborhood. The owner is the barista. Very friendly, very talented. She makes an amazing specialty coffee and makes you feel like a regular even if you are a newbie. This place is worth the 20 minute drive for us, and we will definitely be back! read more

Best place in the area for coffee drinks and it's a family business. They serve Collectivo coffee which is still superior to all national chains I've tried. Outside of Milwaukee, the owner is the best at making lattes. She won't make a goofy design, but she has the espresso to milk to flavoring ratio down pat. Her and her employees are always friendly and inviting. The non coffee drinks are also great, so it's a place you can find something for almost everyone. I recommend the Cookies and Creme frappe for those who want a dessert drink. The prices are comparable to the national chains, so if you're in the area, there's no reason not to stop by downtown Elkhorn for a liquid treat. read more

Absolutely amazing experience! I think the barista's (maybe owner) name was Lauren. She was so friendly and just amazing. She was so kind to my family- to the point that she called my 2 year old over and offered to help her wash her hands. That is just going above and beyond. If we are ever in the area again we will be sure to stop in again! read more

This is my husband's "go-to" place for coffee. Usually there is only one person working the counter which can mean long waits.
