Highest-Rated Coffee Shops in Milwaukee

There’s a few services that, once you find a good one, you will always go there. For instance, barbershops/stylists, pubs, and coffee shops. Finding the right balance of good coffee, good service, and a good environment is always a treat. For many people, a packed Starbucks, Dunkin Donuts, or Tim Hortons isn’t the environment that they want to work or relax in.

List Rules

We took into account high ratings and the number of Google reviews. This is an unranked list, though, so there is no definitive winner.

Colectivo Coffee Lakefront

Where: 1701 N Lincoln Memorial Dr

Rating: 4.6 (2,162)

This is far-and-away the most reviewed spot on this list. It was originally built in 1888 as the Milwaukee River Flushing Station. Besides stellar coffee, espresso, and tea, Colectivo serves classic bistro food like sandwiches, soups, and salads, as well as freshly-baked, homemade bakery items. In the summer it is also home to a beer garden and live, outdoor music.

Anondyne Coffee Roasting Co.

Where: 224 W Bruce St; 2920 S Kinnickinnic Ave

Rating: 4.7 (711); 4.7 (669)

With two locations both receiving high ratings, this was a no-brainer inclusion. All coffee is roasted in-house. They also have artisan pizzas made fresh at their Bay View location. Anodyne Coffee Co. focuses on responsible, ethical, and eco-friendly business practices. As such, they are a Local First Milwaukee partner, as well as Fair Trade and Rainforest Alliance certified, among many other partnerships.

Stone Creek Coffee – Factory Café

Where: 422 N 5th St

Rating: 4.6 (537)

The Stone Creek Coffee building houses the whole shebang: the headquarters, café, training center, and quality assurance department. It serves its own coffee in-house, as well as selling beans. But one thing they do that most other companies don’t is offering classes on how to prepare coffee yourself. This is great for coffee enthusiasts that want to know more about how to prepare their favorite drinks.

Rambacho Coffee & Tea House

Where: 1317 E Brady St

Rating: 4.7 (521)

This is a get-together spot, a little more rambunctious than the others on our list. This is thanks not only to great, in-house roasted coffee, but also their menu of artisanal hot liquor drinks and craft beers. Their Crater Lake Hazelnut Espresso Vodka mixed with Rombacho House blend coffee is an award-winning combination.
