I found the coffee to become bitter after sitting for a few minutes and quite expensive.

Street parking is usually available. The interior is beautiful.

The National Cafe and Bakery was able to accommodate without a problem--they don't use soybean oil or soy based butter in their vegan options. Most vegan options at restaurants are soy based so this was such a refreshing change. The vegan French toast is so good and hearty! I also love their baked goods and look forward to being able to enjoy a treat there. I hope they continue to to serve my neighborhood--I love the farm to table concept. 10/10. A Milwaukee staple on the Southside.

We came here on a Sunday morning, so it was fairly busy. They only have street parking and it can…read moreget a little complicated if you want to be really close to the restaurant. We ended up getting the full English breakfast, I had a London fog latte and my fiancée had a regular coffee. They do have oat milk and soy milk if you prefer that instead of regular milk in your coffee. The full English breakfast has baked beans, tomato, bacon, sausage, mushrooms, eggs and toast. I have had this numerous times here and it has always been my favorite! the baked beans are just a little sweet n tangy, the eggs are however you like them cooked, and the mushrooms at a bit of earthy flavor. If you have ever been to England, the only difference is there is no white or black sausage here. I don't exactly like it so I am glad the sausage here is more like a broiled regular one. The London fog here is the ONLY one I like in MKE! They always put just the right amount of vanilla syrup and milk in it. Most places end up making it super sweet but this place is PERFECT! I come here occasionally because it's also cute and we like to sit in the window and people watch. The service is great and you just order from your phone at the table you choose and pay using Apple Pay or a card.

It is surprisingly hard to find just about anything open in Milwaukee on a Monday, coffee shops…read moreincluded. Like, don't they know that Monday mornings is when we REALLY need coffee? I had scoped out a couple coffee shops in the neighborhood we were staying in, all within walking distance of our Airbnb. But as it turns out...none of them were open on Mondays OR Tuesdays. So I searched further away and generally along the route we were planning to take out of town on our adventures that day. My only requirement is that I find somewhere that wasn't a national chain (I'll go for local or regional chains!) That is how I came upon Boiler House Cafe. BHC is in the Brewery district, very close to several points of interest as well as apartments and hotels. And they are open, at least currently, every day of the week! They are fairly new, it seems, but I think they are definitely worth a visit! Metered street parking and pay lots are available. The space has that sort of industrial-light sort of feel inside. Old brick, exposed ducts, but still clean and inviting. There is outdoor seating, but no assisted shade which may or may not be welcoming depending on the time of day you visit. But there is plenty of indoor seating. The center, high-top counter tables have plugs for electronics, but ALSO have in-table cordless contact charging spots. Very clever and convenient. As for the actual coffee and offerings....their prices are very reasonable. My boyfriend and I each got a large specialty coffee and a pastry (four items altogether) and it cost less than $15 before tip. That is pretty darn good these days! My latte was delicious and the donut stick/cruller tasted exactly like I hoped and wanted it to. Absolutely give them a shot, whether that be for carry out or stay in. The staff is super friendly and kind. I would make Boiler House part of my regularly visited coffee houses if I lived in the Milwaukee area.

Overall my coffee was very good. I was disappointed in the size of my coffee in relation to price…read more Definitely more expensive than what I would pay at other local coffeeshops.

Oh, and of course coffee and food too. Well, I found that and MORE here at Wantable Cafe. Not only is it FREE to come here--no monthly subscription unlike some other remote work cafes but they also let you reserve noise cancelling pods. Two pods have couches where a few people can sit and work together and one pod is for a solo person working--or like in my case having to take an exam with dead quietness, no people, pets and be heavily scrutinized. The rest of the cafe has a bunch of tables ranging from 2 people to groups of 6 people, couches, comfy chairs AND lots of plug outlets. So there is plenty of space for you and others if you need it. Now let's get to the good part---the FOOD. The have gourmet pizza slices sold by the ounce, gourmet cannolis (the matcha and chocolate was to die for), breakfast sandwiches, bowls, snacks, basically everything you could want to set up shop. Plus wine and beer! My only wish is that they were open 24/7 because I also work 3rd shift and finding anywhere to study without waking up my wife and disturbing my precious dog is difficult.

First time here. Stopped in early for a hot beverage and pastry…read more Didn't really know that this place existed until I did a search for coffee shops in the Walker's Point area. It's down a side street off of 1st Street, so it's easy to miss. It's a brick building sitting on the corner, with just enough signage to let you know you're at the right place. Inside is a large area that is both a coffee shop and a coworking/collaboration space to help people connect. There are large tables for groups, small tables for couples, or work pods for privacy. Great idea! They have the usual barista favorites, along with smoothies, breakfast, and lunch items. When I arrived, there were several other people working on their laptops. Met the friendly barista and ordered my usual London Fog Tea Latte (a little lavender, a little vanilla, extra foam). They didn't have scones (so sad), but they did offer some nice bakery items that they source from Stone Creek Coffee. After several minutes, my London Fog was ready, along with the Morning Bun. They did a nice job with the drink, it was the perfect temperature (about 140F), and the pastry was warmed up nicely as well. During my time there, other people started to show up, but the noise level was good. Conversations were quiet and respectful of others. This place does a nice job of balancing the intimacy of a coffee shop with the need for a collaboration space.
