Incredible. Happen to come across it and had to go back. The drinks are unique, phenomenal, and the staff was genuine and kind even as they were busy. Discourse knows what they're doing!

One of the best coffee shops in the area. Always friendly staff, high-quality beverages. My personal favorites are Parisian and Lana Del Fog

Came for a coffee and worked here over lunch - the avocado toast is truly maybe the best I've ever had.

If a cup of coffee could flirt with your spirit, Discourse Coffee Workshop on Barkley in Milwaukee would be the one batting its lashes. I ordered the Flora and let me tell you — from the very moment my lips touched the cup, I knew I had stepped into another dimension.
This isn’t just espresso; it’s artistry.
It’s alchemy.
It’s what happens when coffee decides to put on a silk robe, light incense, and whisper poetry.
The first sip? Floral, creamy, soft — yet confident.
That oat milk-kissed espresso wrapped itself around my palate like a warm hug from the universe. The lavender honey syrup added a gentle sweetness, not loud or perfumey — just enough to let you know she’s divine. The rosewater? A subtle spiritual elevation. The candied lemon powder? A bright kiss on the finish. And the fleur de sel sealed it — a tiny spark that made every flavor stand at attention.
I tasted everything. Every intentional note. And with each sip, it only got better.
By the time I reached the bottom of the cup, I wasn't ready to say goodbye. This was easily the best espresso-based drink I’ve ever had. A soft, luxurious symphony in a cup — one that made me close my eyes and appreciate the moment every single time.
Discourse isn’t just serving coffee…
They’re serving portals, rituals, and revelations.
10/10 — Go treat your taste buds to something magical. ✨☕🌸

I've never been able to drink my coffee black, but I was at the Recess Club Social Session yesterday and Discourse provided the coffee. I had a cup black ,with sugar, and I have ro say, it was the best coffee I've ever had. I will be picking this up to bring to our family Thanksgiving. Discourse's coffee will make the perfect end of the meal with all our homemade desserts
Dark, smooth but strong, with a slightly fruity,-fig finish. Perfect caffeine level. Sooo good!

Always a pleasure at the Disco! My favorite is lafleur (I hope I spelled it right), and the breakfast Sammy (vegetarian, and not in need of anything but a an extra napkin).

Coffee is amazing. Food is sorely lacking and overpriced. You will need a magnifier to find the salmon on your lox bagel.

Unique and amazing atmosphere here!
Everyone was so kind and made some killer drinks! The to-go cups have a built in hot drink sleeve all around the cup!
Definitely a spot to visit and try out!

Incredible lattes! The flavor profiles are so unique and innovative. Watching the barista prepare the latte was like watching an artist. The food menu looks excellent as well - we will definitely be back for more!

My experience here?? Masterful stuff! The ole Disco is a wicked mix of roasted divinity and protean artistry. And folks here treat you real nice besides! I’m just not sure what else to say here or how to describe the thing. I was all thrilled when I sat down to type out some stuff, but them words are nowhere I can find em. Can’t ever find right ways to string some right words together anyways. So’s here a bunch from when I was sittin at the Disco all awkward n’ wonderin the other day. My most deepest aplogies that I don’t really know how to put this stuff together with sense and all…
*saber slides*
blonde and sunripened
blooming behind coffeehouse glass
we aren’t friends
we aren’t anything
i’m sitting full awake, enough
a few thousand light-years to her left
wondering what it’d be
to be that spoon
delicately partitioning the pastry
snoozing under her chin
her face tilts skybound in
calmed contemplation
while a saber shadow
whispers dark blades across
her eyelids
the spoon.
her immense quietude.
a lightbright aura.
certain she clicked past
in a viewmaster
at a café wharf table in san francisco
this lifetime or last
here she is again
reflecting desiderata and december sun
we aren’t friends
we aren’t a darn anything
i’m still gonna wonder though
‘bout being that spoon, shadow,
or afternoon sun
partitioning her
easy expression

I can honestly say this is the best coffee I've had in my life! The motorhead is my favorite it's such an interesting specialty. The lavender latte is also very good. The food also does not disappoint, feels healthy and nice. Atomsphere is nice, big place with outdoor seating and firepits. The staff's service is exceptional. Very nive and welcoming. A little pricey... and on a busy day you will be waiting a while, BUT that just means it's good right!?!? 😁 When in Milwaukee this is a must stop.
