Nice enough. Coffee was ok but nothing to write home about, service a bit offhand but yeah, one of the better options in the area for sure

I love the space here great for meetings, lunch and just working peacefully. It’s also warm here in the winter months. Not a lot of places offer cozy spaces for your comfort it sometimes feel like some places want you to come spend your money and leave not here. This space is welcoming and it says hey stay a while we want you here. I work from home and when I want to get out the house to work, I will drive all the way here and work for the day. Or have a meeting as I know I will be comfortable. I am saying at times I pass up several Starbucks to get here, several other Colectivo as well.

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.

Excellent coffee. Excellent service and staff. A nice selection of pastries and drinks beyond coffee. Wish there was more/better seating but what a wonderful, local, great place for a cup of joe.

I had a really disappointing experience at colectivo. I’ve ordered coffee from these guys online and had good beans. In the cafe I found bad coffee, super loud music, and poor customer service. 2 stars because my cookie was excellent. The baristas didn’t seem familiar with their offerings (one of them was training, but the person leading the training was more confused than the trainee). The shot they pulled was pretty astringent and they put my order to stay in a paper cup. Clearly they’re doing something right to be as successful as they are, but I wouldn’t recommend their coffee. I try not to leave a bad review of a coffee shop, but I really feel these sorts of issues hurt the industry and I’m hoping the consistency can get corrected.

Got a cup of their Guatemala on batch brew. Rounded and rich with some deep fruit notes. Overall a solid cup. Nice space and friendly staff.

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.

Very cute coffee shop, and it’s in a good location downtown. There is a wide selection of drinks, food and pastries + some sugar free options and milk alternatives. It was the most expensive coffee I’ve ever bought though (and I am a flight attendant, so I visit shops all over the world) $8.50 for a drink is insane! I was trying to get an americano with the peppermint fluff but it couldn’t be made with water, so I got oatmilk because I can’t have regular milk. Instead of the vanilla syrup, I asked for sugar free white chocolate and got charged for the change. Yikes! It was tasty but I will not buy it again It’s a cozy environment, but the seating is a little uncomfortable.

Went 2 days in a row for breakfast. Food was good. Very good. It's not fancy, but we'll done. Tried a variety of espresso drinks. Nailed it. Service was uninspired. Not bad :not good. They were not rude or bad at all. They seemed bored with it all. Chairs were reasonable and seating was available.

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.

If you are in a rush this is not the place to go. The speed of service could be a little better, it took them 15 min to toast an everything bagel with a side of cream cheese on my way to the office and did not have the patience. Other than that, nice place and ambiance if you want to hang out.
