Try their pink lemonade!!!We found this super cute coffee place near the Wisconsin intermodal station.They have excellent bakery with great drinks.There is a pretty, esthetic seating outside as well.We tried the cranberry pumpkin muffin and almond croissant. Both pretty good!Would definitely come again!

This coffee shop is very cute and spacious. There is space inside as well as a beautiful patio space outside for you to sit down, relax and enjoy your drink.The baristas were nice and polite despite the rush of customers. The bakery items (from troubadour bakery) are excellent and so is the colectivo coffee that they serve.

We went in a half hour before close and they closed the kitchen already. From the staff perspective, I get it. But from the consumer perspective I was kinda bummed.My cold brew was good, but my partners matcha wasn’t well mixed and chunky.

I like Collectivo, but…the staff has one hell of an attitude. For some reason this location seems to have this vibe like.. “I’m so hip… you’re nothing to me.. I mean I work in the third ward…” I went in this morning (and no, I don’t live in the neighborhood), asked what size a hot coffee was (they display both cold drink sizes and hot drink sized cups right next to each other with no explanation of which is which)… the girl (in her standard skin tight ripped at the knees jeans, baggy t shirt and purple streaked hair) rolls her eyes, and goes into this explanation like my question was stupid and she was wasting her precious time telling me which was which. These kids need to get over themselves…your generation isn’t that cool. And for that matter, neither is the third ward.

Collective is one of my all time favorite coffeeshops anywhere in the nation. The character of each store matches the character of each neighborhood.

I love this place! When ever I am in Milwaukee I go out of my way to get the best coffee in town. The atmosphere is fantastic great for meeting up with friends or needing to work to meet a deadline. With indoor and outdoor seating. I can’t recommend this place enough.

Coffee was fine, seating was ample. Took a while to get my coffee and bagel despite 7 people working all of whom were standing around talking.

Drove around looking for a place for breakfast and stumbled across this gem, good location, great service, different choices for breakfast, had the Baja Bowl and it was delish!

Get like 3 things to eat, portions are tiny winnie, itty bitty…

Staff is fantastic. Delicious food and coffee. Extensive list of sugar free flavors which is a rare find. Cozy atmosphere.
