My favorite coffee shop! Just what us locals were missing. I could spend hours here! Great coffee, friendly service, wonderful atmosphere, and beautiful food. Shoutout to Eli for always making us feel like regulars. (: Lines can be long in the summer or on weekends, but it's worth the wait or trip back during off-peak hours. Highly recommend the peanut butter macchiato or avocado toast. Also the salad with berries and goat cheese! Really appreciate the gluten and dairy free options. Rosie's bakery treats, games for kids, water bowls outside for dogs-- I could go on and on. 10/10 read more

A place that knows what they're doing. Have something to go or have it to stay your service will be quick and efficient. If you're looking for a quick breakfast or light bite this is a great option! The space itself is really clean and I love that there are indoor and outdoor options! read more

A really nice cafe that's located in downtown Lake Geneva. It has floor to ceiling windows throughout that allows all the natural light in. This was is designed simple and beautifully. Staff members were nice and were keeping up with how busy it was. My husband and I stopped in around 10am on a weekday and it was packed. We were fortunate enough to snag a table inside. We noticed that people were constantly coming and going throughout our time there. We shared the hot pumpkin cream chai and the avocado and egg sandwich. This seasonal drink is probably 1 of my favorite coffee drinks of all times. It was creamy, not overly sweet and very delicious. It reminded my husband of having a slice of homemade pumpkin pie in drink form. The avocado and egg sandwich was also very good. The croissant was flaky and buttery. All the ingredients went very well together. read more

I think I could live at this place - it's just so cozy. It smells delicious and the people working there were super friendly. It was my first time so I probably looked confused but was helped quickly and decided on a regular coffee and the sourdough toast as I just was walking around at the farmers market and saw that it wasn't too busy so I wanted to give it a try. Even though it wasn't that busy, it probably took about 8 to 10 minutes for my toast, but I received my coffee immediately and if you dine in you do get free refills on the drip coffee, which was nice. The coffee was absolutely delicious. Probably the best drip coffee. I have had a really long time. My sourdough toast with fresh fruit, and raspberry jam was also delicious. I traveled to Lake Geneva often to visit friends and family in the area, and I am definitely going to make this one of my must stops in the future. There is indoor and outdoor seating - more indoor with the bathrooms behind the main building. Also for next time they have $10 s'mores supplies for use at their tables outside! read more

This is the exact kind of place I'd love to own myself. Adorable, local coffee shop/cafe serving up a variety of fresh eats and good drinks. Plus, it's in the perfect location - a side street right in downtown LG. I'd imagine most people that patron this shop are tourists (like us). From a distance, this place draws you in. You can see the big patio from afar with lots of seating - including couches and adirondack chairs - and big red umbrellas. Upon entry, it's a very welcoming place. Clean, bright, natural light. We ordered three iced lattes and an americano, which all were whipped up in a few minutes, despite it being super busy. I had a little of the brown sugar syrup added to mine and it was the perfect addition, not too sweet. The patio was indeed so enjoyable, especially on a cool, sunny day! We didn't get anything to eat but saw a handful of dishes brought out to other customers and they looked dang good. Including some kind of colorful salad and various toasts. Certainly a charming spot for breakfast and lunch, along with beers and wines to sip on! read more

Really sweet spot with tasty eats and good coffee. It gets BUSY as is expected in LG - but the line moves quickly and there's ample seating inside and on patio. Check it out. read more

After some disappointing coffees and breakfasts, this was a much needed change up! And the prices here were way more reasonable compared to others. Everything was so good. The place is adorable with tables set up with chess or checkers or other games to play. There's a cute, life-sized llama for purchase at the front doors. The inside has quite a bit of seating though it definitely gets crowded, and there's outdoor tables as well. We came around 7:30/8am, which was luckily before the rush. The line was out the door at some points. What we got: Yogurt parfait - Our kids shared this and they loved it. Definitely more than enough for the two of them to split. Breakfast sandwich on croissant with bacon and cheddar - One of our kids finished half their sandwich plus half the parfait, while the other finished their half of the parfait but not the sandwich so we saved it for later. They both really liked this! Avocado + Egg Sandwich - This was nice and felt satisfying but also light. The egg and avocado had that savory element that made it filling. Lox on a Bagel - This was delicious. My husband really liked the everything seasoning on top, which was a unique aspect. I thought it could do without because the salmon is already salty enough that it didn't need more. But this is a solid order and you really can't go wrong unless everything is slipping off the bagel. But the bagel here had great texture and chew! Brown sugar oat - This was delicious. There's really nothing so sad as terrible coffee with your breakfast. We were so happy the coffee here was equally as good as the food! Dirty matcha latte - Matcha was strong and the espresso was strong too--no weak flavors here. So good! read more

Love this spot for coffee. The flat white was fantastic! The blueberry muffin was good, could use a few more blueberries. Loved the interior and didn't know this initially but there is another space you can sit if you go outside and to the left. The bathroom is located there too. Will definitely be back.. read more

Obsessed with their French Madeline latte. Haven't had anything like it anywhere else. I usually get it with almond milk and it's decadent and frothy. I've never had a bad drink here. Although it's very close to the main strip in Lake Geneva we always find close parking. One of our favorite stops! read more

I got my coffee to go on a chilly April day. The restaurant was beautiful. If I had a coffee shop this is exactly what I would want it to look like. I had medium madeleine coffee because I saw someone else recommended it. DELICIOUS! read more

This is the cutest little coffee shop in downtown. It's actually big once you learn that there is a second room that you have to access via going outside. This extra room is beautiful and so cozy with lots of board games, books, sofas, etc. my dirty chai was delicious! Not too spicy, which I like. The staff was attentive and very sweet. The apple fritter was delicious! read more

We had an awesome time here! Came here for a date with my wife and we both loved the atmosphere and the drinks. She got a bourbon maple and vanilla latte, and I got their cold brew, and both were excellent (and most importantly) caffeinated. We didn't get any food but they do some of that too. The atmosphere is the best part though, tons of natural light inside, and lots of seating outdoors too. They even have little toys for kids to play with. Will come back again! read more

I came back here over and over because the coffee was just so good and the service was amazing. I talked to the barista about what I was looking for, and she handcrafted a customized drink based off of my sweet preferences and flavor profiles that I was looking for. She was spot on with her recommendation, and I came back to order the same drink several times. The ambience in the café was very cute and cozy, but also had a modern farmhouse type of feel. Overall, I would highly recommend this place for anyone in the area that is looking for a reliable coffee spot. read more

Loved the ambiance, they have it all decorated for Christmas and it's truly stunning. The service was also awesome, as she helped me decide what to get and customized my food as I don't eat bacon. I had low hopes for food, but it was better than expected. I do think they would be better using real avocado instead of guac type paste. I will definitely come back! read more

I was so disappointed with this cafe. I came in with a group 6 of my friends and was waiting in line. While we were waiting and chatting, a barista with red hair and a red beard and glasses YELLED at us to wait outside!!! It was cold and windy outside. Meanwhile, every other worker watched and let him yell at us across the room. It was terrible. We all were so startled by his yell. The room went quiet. We went outside to wait in line but decided to leave because of how terrible he spoke to us. DO NOT go to this cafe if you like to respected and spoken to in a friendly manner. Don't care how good the coffee is. Not worth the amount of hatred we encountered from the staff. read more

Decaf? I never said anything about "decaf". It was a "regular" drip coffee. This happened on multiple occasions. It's 11am. Not sure why fresh coffee can't be brewed. Maybe ask your employees why this is their M.O. read more

This place overall has a very nice vibe. The girls at the counter were kind and we got our drinks within about 5 minutes. There's plenty of seating inside, even a nice comfy couch and chairs. The patio outside has plenty of seating also. The green smoothie was great & not too sweet. My wife's cold brew with brown sugar cold foam was not bitter like some places. Will definitely go back to try more! read more

Whether it be mornings, afternoons and evenings, The Porch is the newest addition to "The House of Brick & Mortar Home." Serving coffee, lattes, blended creations, breakfast and lunch bites, wine, and beer. After doing a walking tour around Lake Geneva, we decided to relax and try this new little gem. I highly recommend the berry salad coupled with Banshee Pinot Noir. A little high on the price, but with the economy, it's understandable. read more

I've been to Lake Geneva several times the past two weeks for events and always find myself back at porch. The staff is so kind and so helpful! I've had a Lavender Matcha, Blended Matcha, and the Peanut Butter Latte and all are amazing. The baked goods are fresh and yummy and they had gluten free options. My friends and I love this place and the vibe and can't wait to come back! read more

Food - below average Service - kind gal taking orders Service - HORRIBLE! WAY TOO SLOW! With only a handful of customers ahead of us, we waited over a 1/2 hour to place our order, we waited another forty plus minutes for our food. We took it to go, and one sandwich was missing. I called, and the person I spoke with told me they had long lines this morning. What does that have to do with anything? Lol! So unprofessional, and the sandwiches were barely edible. Cute seating area, but obviously the owners have no restaurant experience. Never again. read more

Beautiful place! All glass windows, outdoor seating, dog friendly outside! They need to work on a system of menus/food choices before you approach the ordering station.. the QR code doesn't work.. multiple menus floating around but once you get to order they inform you that is not the menu. I will return and hope the system/ flow and ordering is improved. Coffees were phenomenal. Phone number is 262-729-4100 read more

This is such a great local spot to come when visiting Lake Geneva! I have visited Lake Geneva numerous times but I have never been to the coffee shop.

Love their outdoor seating but have been disappointed with the food for my past two experiences. I first got a breakfast sandwich with bacon egg and cheese... it was cold. Next time I got a lunch item (pictured) BLT with avocado. They failed to mention they were out of tomato ): My drink and lunch sandwich was $20 and $3 tip. This place is adorable but seriously lacking quality. Only come here for a coffee. read more
