Best Place Coffee & Spirits

While in the area for the weekend for my sister’s wedding, I practically lived off their muffins and cappuccinos. Staff is super friendly and helpful, and their drinks/baked goods are on point. Wish I lived closer!

Fun little coffee shop with great coffee!

Love this cute little coffee shop in the Pabst Brewery district. Great coffee & treats.

In town for a Brewers game and checked this out. Coolest coffee shop ever! Amazing staff and awesome building.

Super cool old historic building and tasty chorizo breakfast burrito

Pinnacle spot for taste of MKE history and atmosphere. Yes, you might be waiting for a few minutes as the baristas diligently make your drinks. However, they are worth the wait. Seasonal drinks are plenty and cold brew is simple perfection. The patio is the picture perfect for reading a book with a cup of coffee on a Sunday morning. Plus, it’s dog friendly.

Visiting from England there was only one brewery tour that we were definitely doing and it was the PBR one! The tour is really interesting, our guide at 12 on Friday the 16th of May (sorry I forgot your name) was awesome, was a knowledgeable machine when it came to PBR. Wonderful stories and plenty of beer, Jim the owner was a great guy too, not as great as his wife who managed to get the football (soccer) on tv so I could watch Aston Villa ✅ Absolutely awesome place, plenty of cool merch in the shop too.

Really cool coffee shop. Had lavender latte and a savory scone. Delicious.

Such a cute place! Great coffee and the quiche was probably one of the best I've ever had!

Best place for me to do my school work, the matcha always motivates me the best! It’s usually quiet which I love bc it allows me to focus

I love the feel of this cute little coffee shop in the historic Pabst Brewery! The coffee is always delicious and i love the baked goods, especially the Superdoodle (snickerdoodle) cookie. Staff has been friendly every time I am there.

Best Place Coffee & Spirits, more like the Worst Place for Coffee. I wish I could give it 0 stars. Yesterday I went and I asked for their Iced cookie butter latte iced with oat milk. They made it wrong. They put the espresso on a plastic cup for iced drinks without ice(which it can burn the cup), then the syrups, and then milk, and then the ice. Most of the drink was oat milk. If I wanted to drink oat milk I would've asked for the container of it instead of coffee. Like it just tasted like oat milk, I had to throw away the whole drink. The two baristas making the drinks took their sweet time with it, like they would stop making drinks just to talk about their personal lives(I get it but talk while making the drinks, you don't have to stop to talk). I've been a barista before and I understand sometimes drinks take a long time, but it doesn't take over 25 minutes to make 3 drinks(that's the number of drinks that were made including mine) unless you need a blender which none of them did. Also just a tip for iced drinks you put ice first then the syrup or espresso and then the milk.

I randomly walked past this place after just coming to Milwaukee. Immediately coming in I was greeted by the colorful baristas. They were so nice and helped me pick out an order (a chocolate pumpkin muffin and regular coffee). Sol, Emily, and Edin are great at their jobs. They make conversation and are still attentive with the orders. Please consider giving them increased wages or at least recognition for their efforts! Place is tidy and food is pretty good! Happy to keep coming here!!

My family, and I went in this morning for a coffee and to check out the coffee/gift shop. The staff was very rude, did not even acknowledge us upon walking in, or after we greeted them(In both the coffee shop and the gift shop). Once we did place our orders, it was as if we had to wait for them to serve all the other people, and we received ours next to last, despite having simple drinks. I don’t know if this was due to us being of color, or not, but it certainly felt that way. Overall, the situation was not ideal. The coffee, and ambience of the establishment was nice, but we were made to feel unwelcome by both the coffee shop workers and the gift shop workers. Would not recommend for people of color.

The staff was unbelievable friendly and made a wonderful cup of coffee. A beautiful interior and building. I wish I had more time to enjoy my coffee. Before they closed.
