Crescendo Espresso Bar

My mom and I went to Crescendo for the first time. I had a cappuccino and my mom had a macchiato. Both drinks were hot and made fresh with care. While we were drinking we had a raspberry scone too. The ladies that work there are kind and inviting. Please go and grab a cup of coffee, study, work, and relax!

Great if you wanna grab a bite and have a really tasty coffee. Not recommend for extended stay and laptop work. I came on a Sunday and all seating was gone plus ten people in line. The internet here is super slow with just 3MBs - devide that by five laptops and I was barely able to check FB. Pretty chilly, too, in the winter, since the door constantly opens. Friendly staff, perfect setvice.

I tried their maple cinnamon cortado, which was very good. The only minor down-side was that I didn't consider just how sweet real maple sugar is, so next time I'll as for a tad less.

Cute little coffee shop in hilldale. I ordered a sausage egg and cheese breakfast sandwich and it was huge! Not to mention, probably the best breakfast sandwich I’ve ever had.

One of my favorite places in Madison! So delicious and have always had a great experience. Try their avocado toast - it's amazing!

the dude behind the counter was super friendly & patient! he fixed my drink after i forgot to say no ice. coffee is great & decor is nice.

For some times now I love the coffee but it is not very warm this days that will be the down side of Crescendo.

amazing staff; was there a few nights ago and the boy at the counter was so helpful! fixed my drink for me after i forgot to ask for oat milk instead of dairy; im allergic!

Coffee and espresso drinks are fantastic. They make a tasty ice latte but skip the baked goods. Dry and overpriced.

The guy who is in the counter is not respectful, the place is nice but the service is not good at all. They gave me my drink and it was too sweet for me and I asked him to fix that, but he was not helpful at all. Even with that he’s asking for a tip!!!!
