Good vibes in this small local coffee shop. Nice selection of baked goods and I appreciated multiple choices for whole bean coffee.

This is the best coffee shop in Wisconsin. Nestled on a quiet corner of Birch St. Il Bar is more than just a coffee shop. It’s heaven, a community hub , a place where time seemed to slow down. Great ambiance and amazing coffee. What a delicious selection of coffee and sandwiches , my favorite being the tripleta; it’s a MUST try! This is definitely my favorite coffee spot!!!! Cudos to the owners 😉

I visited the coffeehouse a few days ago, it was an absolute great experience! The owners were there greeting everyone and making sure everyone was doing well and enjoying their food. All the staff was so friendly and seemed to genuinely love working there and they even offered to help me with my items to the car since I had my daughter with me. And as far as food goes I got a breakfast burrito, one for me and my fiancé and we both loved it! I will definitely be visiting again. I unfortunately forgot to take a picture of my burrito, for being too busy eating but the presentation of it was great as well. We also both had a mocha coffee which was good as well.

Rachel who took our order was so kind, attentive and a very nice first impression of this coffee bar.

Coffee is always so good. We took the bus from downtown Appleton to enjoy this pleasure.

Amazing surprise. Great coffee and food in a laid back and nicely decorated interior. I wish I would have found this place earlier. Definitely will be back!

Been coming here since they opened in 2020- always amazing service , food/ beverages and atmosphere! I drag along my friends and family here all of the time and they love it! Some people complain about long wait times- but the place is popular for a reason 🤷‍♀ they all work so hard and you can really tell ❤ 100/10 recommend !

Our first time at il Bar, and we were very impressed! The vibe is super cozy and relaxing. The shop is very clean, and the lattes are amazing! My daughter got the peppermint mocha and I had a matcha. Both were phenomenal! They also have a gluten free section, which is important for us. Also, all utensils are compostable! We will definitely be back!

IL is the place to be! Love the extra space to use for work and studying. Their coffees are wonderful and the food is delicious.

Great place with even better coffee. If you’re looking for quality coffee and food, this is it! The staff and owner are very friendly, welcoming, and provide excellent service. They even have a great kids corner for kids to either play or grab a book to read. Cannot recommend this place enough! Kimberly’s superior coffee shop.

Cute coffeehouse with brunch menu! Visited on a busy Sunday morning, staff and owner were a delight to interact with, clearly a great work environment. Festive decorations and low-key holiday music topped off this 5⭐ experience. I will be back and bringing friends to try the seasonal hot chocolate flights.
Pictured is the Verde Ovo Toast and a large brown sugar cinnamon latte, both were delicious!

These people know coffee! We decided to drive about an hour out of our way to check this place out, and we were SO glad we did! The service was wonderful and so friendly, the atmosphere was aesthetic and inviting, and the food was great! Our barista was knowledgeable about the different coffee choices, and gave wonderful recommendations.

We decided to try their coffee flight and we were in love with the thoughtful mix of flavor profiles presented. They chose flavor combinations that were unique, well-balanced, and really excentuated the notes of the coffee. We really enjoyed it! It was one of our favorite coffee experiences!! Definitely worth visiting!

I love this coffee house. I live in Appleton, and there's a lot of options there...but I drive out of my way to come here because the coffee is delicious. The pastries are also phenomenal. I have not had their other food yet. I really enjoy that there is such a big coffee menu with seasonal drinks, as well as a rotating coffee flight. (I loooovveee the coffee flights. That is what originally enticed me to come in). The atmosphere is cute and my boyfriend also enjoys the vibes that this place offers compared to other shops. The additional seating is nice and I am constantly coming here every Sunday I am not in indiana. I'll definitely be sharing this coffee house with others. Also, the owner and the staff is always super nice every time I've come in.

Edit: to put it in another way, my boyfriend and I planned to come here another Sunday not realizing they weren't open, and when we got there we went "now what?! Our day is ruined!" (Jokingly) We knew there were like 6 other coffee shop options but we REALLY wanted that il Coffee ;)

Such a cute and comfortable environment. There were plenty of unique items on the menu that tasted amazing and flavorful. Absolutely ❤ this place.

Met a couple coworkers there on a rainy day. We all got the pumpkin spiced lattes. I loved it on ice, absolutely awesome. Did not try the food but will definitely be going back to give that a go. Very cool atmosphere, one of the best coffee shops I've found in the valley.

The owners and their staff are very friendly. I LOVE how unique the sweet treats are! They are not super sweet which is excellent and they make me feel very classy. The atmosphere is delightful.

They have a cute little kid courner. It's not big but it is a little something to hopefully engage the Littles so one can enjoy a beverage in peace.

Very cute place and great vibe overall. We tried the coffee flights and mocktail flights. Very cute concept! Definitely will try to visit again!

Always delicious food and drinks. Friendly service.

BEST. COFFEE BAR. EVER.
Stop whatever you are doing right now, and run here!
What really sets this place apart was the flights of coffee they offer.
We got the fall flight, which is perfect if you want a taste of everything. Amazingly good flavors!
We also got panini for lunch which was incredible, so I have no doubt the rest of the food would be phenomenal as well.
Such a warm, friendly atmosphere that makes you feel right at home.
They have board games, table games, and cards which is really fun!
The wait for coffee was not long, considering the craft and masterful skills they put into each and every customers order.
The owner Cal and his wife were around bussing tables, handing out menus, working in the kitchen etc, which is refreshing to see such hard work and dedication into their business. Spoke with Cal, for a brief moment and he was very appreciative of our business and such a nice guy!

Highly recommend making this place your new go-to for coffee, brunch, lunch or just to hang out! We will absolutely be back!

Quick service despite a skeleton crew, delicious iced latte, and a good atmosphere. You can also buy ground coffee, pottery, and t-shirts.
