Welcome to Colectivo Coffee Third Ward, a gem nestled in the heart of Milwaukee at 223 E St Paul Ave. This inviting café is not just another stop for your caffeine fix; it offers a warm and vibrant atmosphere that sets it apart from the average coffee shop. With a deep appreciation for quality and community, Colectivo has crafted a space that feels both cozy and invigorating, making it ideal for a quick coffee run or a leisurely catch-up with friends.

The spacious layout provides ample seating, both indoors and out, allowing you to soak up the local ambiance while sipping on your favorite brew. The staff here is celebrated for their friendliness and expertise, ensuring that every visit is as enjoyable as it is delicious.

But what truly shines at Colectivo Coffee is the extensive menu that caters to all tastes. Start your day with the Bacon Egg and Cheese Croissant, featuring a fluffy egg frittata with Jones Dairy Farm bacon, all nestled in a flaky Troubadour croissant bun for just US$8.75. For something a little heartier, try the Potato Bacon Burrito, loaded with cage-free eggs, Usinger’s bacon, and Wisconsin cheddar, served alongside a zesty homemade salsa for US$7.50.

Don’t forget to indulge your sweet tooth with delightful baked goods like the Cranberry Pumpkin Muffin, bursting with tart cranberries and topped with crunchy pepitas for only US$4.25. Or, if you’re in the mood for something light and zesty, the Iced Lemon Cookie is a perfect choice at US$4.00.

Guest reviews echo the excellence found at Colectivo. Chris Provencio mentions the “great tasting coffee and wide breakfast options”, while Omar praises the café as "perfect for great drinks, cozy vibe, and super friendly staff." These sentiments reflect the collective joy that comes from sharing a space dedicated to craft beverages and quality food.

In terms of beverages, the offerings are equally impressive, catering to a range of palates. Whether it’s the NITRO coffee that Gregory Stewart II raves about, or the salted vanilla mocha that wowed jana, each cup embodies a unique blend of flavors crafted to satisfy. The attention to detail is palpable—from the carefully brewed coffees to the thoughtful service that makes you feel valued.

So if you find yourself in Milwaukee’s Third Ward, make sure Colectivo Coffee is on your list. It’s more than just coffee; it’s an experience that celebrates community, quality, and, of course, the joy of a good cup of joe. Come for the coffee, stay for the atmosphere, and leave with a smile.

    I stopped here because a local told me to. And so glad I did! Not your average hipster coffee shop of subway tile and plants- so much more!! Loved their custom swag and food options. I got a smoothie and was worried that it would be too sweet, but it was 10/10.

    Another day at the Coffee shop. Here to try new tea. This time Ginger Rising Hot Tea and Smoke White Chocolate Mocha. Great time to be alive drinking Colectivo Coffee.

    NITRO POWER!!!! What an awesome coffee shop. I was in town for a concert. Stopped in for an afternoon coffee. WOW. Such beautiful design, decor was original design with some upbeat flavor to it. Many flavors of coffees along with sizes. The staff was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. Indoor and outdoor seating. The outdoor seating is just as beautiful as the inside. Definitely worth a stop.
