I like their coffee Columbian whole bean coffee,It use to be about $12.00 for a full LB ,unfortunately like everthing else ,they only offer 12 Oz bags of beans for $15.00 ,so a 1/4 lb less for 20% more is unacceptable .I'm looking at other alternatives.

Hot Chai was okay. Banana nut muffin was great. Shop is busy and very dirty. Table stained with coffee, floor full of dirt and crumbs. The cloth chairs are so dirty and in need of replacing. Spend some of your revenue on a new cloth chair.

Great coffee shop just across from the State Capitol in the heart of downtown Madison. I stopped in for an evening latte and a muffin and definitely will be checking this place out again. The non-fat latte was expertly made and the blueberry muffin served as a nice evening snack after having a lunch later in the day thereby forgoing a big dinner. The menu looked great across the board with a nice variety of coffees, teas and more available to drink and some nice food options available, as well. In addition to the pastry case there were some delicious egg options and some other bowls available, as well. The interior is spacious and warm and would be a good spot to fire up the laptop, have a coffee and get some work done. Next time I am in Madison, definitely will be hitting up Collective Coffee again and encourage you to check it out, as well!

Good coffee. Not ideal for working on a laptop. Too cramped up and noisy. Has plenty of outlets though.

Sweet drink and food offerings; tons of seating; attentive staff; and amazingly sharing patrons!! Three folx either allowed me to sit at their table while I was waiting for my order or came and shared my table once I got situated. Had some interesting conversations and felt right at home even though it was my 1st time visiting Colectivo!!Parking: There is a paid parking lot 3 doors down on the same side of the street and it's Not expensive at all!!!Wheelchair accessibility: Everything is too close, and it was too crowded on a Saturday morning at 9:30 for a wheelchair to maneuver, but I did fine with my rolling walker. Although there is an outside portion that is definitely warm enough, it is probably cozy down to 30 degrees and has tons of open space. It's enclosed and heated with chairs around the bar.

I can't get enough of this place. Amazing bagels, a useful, easy to use app (unlike chipotle) with generous rewards, and a perfect selection of premium coffee, tea and cocoa drinks. There's a feel good, UBU, laid back atmosphere. Employees are unionized and that means you don't need to worry about them dropping bitter underpaid vibes into your morning sauce. Prices are comparable to Starbucks IMO. I especially like their selection of sugar free specialty drinks. I like a hot caramel latte. I do miss their maple syrup dipped breakfast sausage croissant-bring it back please. Finally a suggestion too. Food orders should be readied with drink orders. Two trips with a laptop in a crowd is unfun. There are outlets for the WFH herd. Clean bathrooms (don't leave your valuables everywhere not just here.)

I love going here and sitting down and having a cup of coffee and a coco pumpkin muffin before heading off to work in the area. Such a great atmosphere and the staff is always kind and professional and service is prompt, highly recommend going!
They have signature unique coffee drinks made out of house made syrups! I got the iced cardamom honey latte, my husband got the cortado. Both very good and the cardamom honey latte didn't taste too strong (I was worried that it would be too much cardamom taste), very subtle. Definitely recommend trying if you like lattes with different flavors. There were plenty of seating available, great for students to study and hangout.

Food was good but took 15 minutes for a breakfast burrito and 2 drinks and 30 minutes to heat up an already made cinnamon

Solid drinks from my limited experience while in the area for a conference. Plenty of space to just chill and use the fairly reliable WiFi as well!
