Colectivo Coffee of the Third Ward

I've been a regular here for years and the service is always wonderful. Tea and coffee options are tasty and the atmosphere is great for a quick break or casual lunch. Excellent location in the Third Ward.

There are several staff that are stand-outs, but I will specifically call out Matea for always providing a friendly greeting and making a point to remember my regular order.

NITRO POWER!!!! What an awesome coffee shop. I was in town for a concert. Stopped in for an afternoon coffee. WOW. Such beautiful design, decor was original design with some upbeat flavor to it. Many flavors of coffees along with sizes. The staff was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. Indoor and outdoor seating. The outdoor seating is just as beautiful as the inside. Definitely worth a stop.

I stopped here because a local told me to. And so glad I did! Not your average hipster coffee shop of subway tile and plants- so much more!! Loved their custom swag and food options. I got a smoothie and was worried that it would be too sweet, but it was 10/10.

I loved the vibes of this location. The Windy Ci-Tea latte was great, but their almost croissant was amazing! I had originally walked by on a Saturday afternoon and it was completely packed. I'm so happy I decided to come back on a Monday morning, there was plenty of empty seats for me to hang out and read for a while.

Absolutely love this place! The staff is so kind and helpful. All the specialty drinks are bomb. I had the Dolce de Leche iced latte (with oat milk) and my husband had the Windy Ci-tea. There’s a lot of bar seating as well as low tables for doing work. If you haven’t had a pastry from Troubadour Bakery—also owned by Colectivo—you gotta do it. This is a great place to hang out and escape the crowds across the street at the Public Market. Always impressed by the quality of coffee and service at any Colectivo location!

Love, love, LOVE Colectivo! Very "homey" environment, even just for the quick step-ins I do for takeout. (Try the Iced Pistachio Matcha Latte, delicious)

There's really something for everyone here: fresh-baked goods, all types of coffee including a nice pour over selection, above-average sandwiches, and friendly, coffee-whispering staff all housed in a rustic/industrial space with a pleasant vibe. If crowded, don't overlook the bar with seating hidden back between where orders are placed and the kitchen.

A nice rainy day retreat! Great place to huddle up and feel cozy. Coffee is just plain excellent. Often times a bit crowded, but I guess that's a good sign of a successful coffee shop.

Great smoothies, bakeries and coffee. We stayed downtown Milwaukee for 3 nights while at jiu jitsu camp and came here every morning and loved it.

One of the most vintage buildings in Milwaukee turned into a small cozy atmosphere. Love their coffee. Best coffee in town!

I've had Collectivo Coffee at cafes before, so when I while in Milwaukee, I had to stop and get one their shop. This place had a great open air vibe, ample street parking, and no line. I enjoyed a chai latte. Delicious treat!

Great coffee shop with a fair amount of seating. I come here to get work done. It is a calm and quiet atmosphere with a friendly staff. Exposed brick and high ceilings make for a great aesthetic.

My favorite shop in Mikwaukee. This place was so good, I ate breakfast there every day while in Milwaukee. Their breakfast burritos are top notch and the vibe inside is super chill. I asked for something off the menu, the Mexican Madness, and was blown away. One of the best spicy mochas I had in my life. I wish they opened up some of these in New York!

Great place! Artsy with being too fancy or elaborate, with leftover, rusty relics of the factory that the building had once been, thus the old school gritty Milwaukee flavor along with this avant garde aesthetic appeal in places. And the coffee is superb, doing the trick splendidly, while the fruit drinks are very tasty & excellently made. Overall an outstanding establishment that makes really good coffee & delicious fruit drinks in the heart of the 3rd Ward.

This coffee shop opens early and has quite a few seats inside.
Great selection of pastries with wonderful coffee that tastes just right.
If you are staying downtown, try it out.

Delicious hand crafted drinks and friendly staff. Love all the options and perfectly brewed.

Great little coffee shop with excellent coffee that rotates weekly and an awesome staff that that has been there for years. Love this spot!

Amazing! Got a huge warm and so delicious cinnamon roll with a smoothie. The roll was soft and sweet and wasn't skimping on cinnamon like some rolls do. So so so good.

I love this place. Not only is the staff immensely friendly, but the coffee is wonderful too. Cold brew is silky and delicious. Iced tea is nice too. Also, very affordable. It's hard to walk in here without buying a bag of their gorgeous coffee. I particularly like the Brazil and the Cold Brew Blend.

Very nice espresso shot. Highly recommend it if you're visiting Milwaukee!
