Discourse Coffee - Downtown

Really cool location and even better coffee. Love the creative drinks this place has to offer. Seems like there’s always something new to try. Very laid back and friendly vibes from the staff too

This isn't ordinary coffee. It's pure art in a cup. Each sip was flavorful and delicious, and you can tell they put effort into giving you a beautiful and delicious coffee experience. They also have an amazing assortment of tea options. And the staff was very friendly and helpful. We're happy to have discovered this gem and will be back!

I'm not kidding when I say this is the first place I've ever actually enjoyed coffee. Their moonwater is my favorite. The atmosphere is amazing, prices are comparable to Starbucks, and the people are lovely. I'm not in much but they even know me by name! If I can help it this will be pretty much the only coffee place I go to consistently for the rest of time. Also their pastries are to die for! Very impressed and already bringing all my coffee lover friends here when I can :)

If you are in Milwaukee you have to swing by Discourse Coffee. These guys are magicians! The flavors are unreal! The staff is unbelievably knowledgeable. This is true art. This is a definite stop next time we are in town! Thank you guys for such an unforgettable experience!

I love, love, Discourse! This is Milwaukee and possibly the Midwest's best coffee shop! I would be hesitant to even call it coffee at this point. These artistist creations of flavor explosions take you on a journey of sweet and salty, nice and spicy, and everything in between! Just take a look at these pictures! If you love coffee... if you love flavor explosions....then you are going to want to make a stop at one of these locations! It's totally worth it!

What a cool place and great addition to downtown! Tucked away in the direct supply building and in the heart of MSOE’s campus! The baristas are so friendly and very knowledgeable to answer any question you may have!

The menu is so unique with rotating experimental combinations every month. I tried the “pumpkin situation”, an amazing take on the pumpkin spice latte. The combinations are strange but taste great! The more standard coffee is great too! Can’t wait to go back and try something different

Discourse is a must-go for coffee and experience in Milwaukee. So glad I finally got here and cannot wait to keep going back! Looking forward to new rotating menus and funky flavors.

I had the “BSL” which was their take on the PSL but with butternut squash. Excellent.

Service was great! Very kind and talented staff. The space was very clean and comfortable.

Highly recommend the Junto for a traditional pour over, I’d that’s more your speed.

High quality, crafted cafe drinks! We go out of our way to visit Discourse. Such a delight every time.

such a sweet and funky local shop for specialty coffee and sweet treat lovers alike. they use a mixologists eye in crafting a lot of their signature drinks, so whatever you order will take you on a pleasant journey off the beaten path. of course they nail the basics here too with a rotating selection of cool coffees.
as a recent chicago transplant, i have been really missing the specialty scene, so i was very excited to see this place pop up. i can't stay away :)

A unique coffee shop that is a lovely addition to the city of Milwaukee. I love Discourse and have been following them since their Door County days. You'll find all your regular coffee drinks here, but you'll also find an array of unique specialty drinks that you won't find anywhere else! 10/10 - would rate higher if I could. You can't go wrong at Discourse!
