Colectivo Coffee Lakefront

Visiting Milwaukee and honestly had higher expectations going by recommendations. The coconut cold brew was bitter and astringent while it was described as being sweet akin to a dessert. The London fog was passable. The food was absolutely mediocre, the bagel for the salmon bagel sandwich was chewy and hard, the salmon itself was alright; the veggie pesto burrito was small and flavors were ok at best, quite unremarkable. And the food took over 40 minutes to come out! The pastries: lemon poppy bread was dry and very mild in flavor, lavender scone largely the same. Only saving grace was the location and vibe, which was near the beautiful lakeside with a nice breeze blowing. Cannot recommend.

Colectivo at the Lakefront is the ultimate stop! Vibrant vibe, great coffee, and solid food right on the trail. Perfect pitstop whether you're out for a walk, a run, or cycling along Lake Michigan. Unbeatable patio views! PROTIP: parking at the marina if the store lot is full.

What an amazing coffee shop right by the lake. The variety of baked goods and ingredients used was top-notch. What we loved was the outdoor seating area, and the cool and calm vibe, which certainly makes the coffee experience 100% times better and lets you sit, relax, and ponder on worldly things :)

This is one of the best coffee shops I’ve been to. The atmosphere is amazing, and the outdoor patio seating is especially nice. It’s also very close to the lake, which makes the view even better. Parking is free and there’s plenty of space, especially in the lot behind the building.

Beautiful spot on a sunny day. The place gets awfully busy, and it seems the crew struggles to keep up. We ordered four beverages, and it took fifteen minutes. One coffee never arrived and we simply abandoned it (even though we paid). I'm sure they do as well as they can for a small space, but it's still annoying, IMO.
