I used to love this place. The location is amazing, but they are now posting overtly political messaging that alienates have their customers. They have giant LGBTQ flags on windows. If the owner is reading this please remove the political messaging. If not we can no longer support this business. Location is amazing and otherwise a good spot. The staff is also dressed provocatively...in punk rock attire.

1st time trying coffee from this coffee shop after visiting St. Paul Fish Company many times. This coffee shop is across from St. Paul Fish Company. I was looking for a cup of coffee before long drive to Wisconsin Dells. So, I decided to try a coffee here. It’s SO GOOD! I ordered salted caramel latte. It’s not too sweet and no sour taste. It’s very smooth and tasty! 👍🏻 They are also offering food such as breakfast, soups, sandwiches, etc. If you want a quick meal. I definitely come back here again next time.

Delicious coffee with an even better atmosphere. Peacefully situated right by Lake Michigan, Collectivo Coffee Lakefront is a wonderful coffee spot for meeting up with friends or coming to work and study, There are several rooms and many places to sit. There is an awesome outdoor area with lots of colorful seating and a beautiful area. The historical tour guide on the river boat that i attended prior to coming to Collectivo recommended going to see The Milwaukee River Flushing Station which is quite literally in the middle of one of the rooms at Collectivo, Overall, it was a lovely coffee spot with great service, beautiful views and some historical importance as well!

Great breakfast place! I am not a coffee drinker, but my friends said the coffee was very good. I had the Avocado Toast and a egg and goat cheese English muffin sandwich. Both were very good. Parking can be a little bit difficult. Well worth a stop, if you are in the area.
