Top Spots to Get Caffeinated in MKE

The most important part of any day – or at least mine – is the answer to this question: Where am I getting coffee today? In the search for my caffeine fix, I’ve picked five of my favorite places to visit and get my day (or afternoon!) started right.

Colectivo
223 E St Paul Ave
170 S 1st St

A Milwaukee classic! There are two Colectivo shops within walking distance of the ZG office in the Third Ward, making it easy to drop by when a craving hits during a walking meeting. They often change up their specialty menu, so it’s easy to try something new.

Onesto
221 N Broadway

Did you know there’s a café window at Onesto in the mornings? Their delicious coffee is supplemented with AMAZING pastries. The ham and cheese roll and cinnamon roll are personal favorites. There’s often a line, but it’s worth the wait.

Anodyne
400 N. Water St.

This is the best location for an afternoon coffee – an invigorating walk with some tasty coffee creations at the destination. Plus, if you fancy a snack (or a late lunch) you’re already at Milwaukee Public Market!

Full of Beans Café
184 S. 2nd Street

Full of Beans is a quaint shop with a cozy atmosphere, good food, comfy seats and a fake fireplace to ease you awake. Just around the corner from our ZG office, I look forward to visiting often!

Vendetta Coffe Bar
524 S. 2nd St.

Experience the essence of Italy with Vendetta’s authentic coffee and imported pastries, making it the perfect morning or afternoon spot. The extra jolt of espresso is just what you need to power through a day filled with meetings. Our team loves walking here together in the afternoon, enjoying the flavors and each other’s company.

ZG Espresso Machine
131 S. 1st St.

Yes, we have an espresso machine! Perfect for that quick cup to give you an extra boost as you take on the world.
