A little heavy on the foam maybe, but the coffee was really good. Had a couple of donuts which were very fresh and tasted great, too. The server was super nice and had the drinks out fast. The place is cute. Eclectic odds and ends are hanging around everywhere and the music was good. Liked it well enough to pick up a t-shirt too :-) Looking forward to our next visit!

A quaint and cozy coffee shop in the Bay View neighborhood…read more It's almost like stepping back in time, with some rustic bicycle decor, old bookshelves, crates, tables and comfy chairs to lounge. There is a little free library and boardgames you can play while you enjoy your coffee or sandwich. They use Anodyne beans for their coffee and they make simple, fresh sandwiches. I went with the Trike - Deli style chicken, pepper jack cheese, with a spicy aioli chipotle sauce on a ciabatta bun. Simple and delicious. Service was good as well. A nice homey cafe where you can post up and work, catch up with a friend or come alone and cozy up with a book for awhile.

The staff is friendly and they'll make your coffee to order if you ordered ahead so it's fresh when you arrive. I love the bright colors. If you want to stay and eat there, the patio is great when the weather is good! I love the Azteca burrito- it is HUGE and the salsa is so fresh. Drinkwise I always go for the cold brew.

First time here…read more Nomad is part of a collection of food & drink venues located on a corner of Brady Street. It's famous for its World Cup parties. The coffee shop is connected to the other through a shared patio space. There are outside heaters available on the covered patio areas. We stopped in for a hot beverage and some breakfast. The coffee shop is not much too look at. There are a few high tops, with tall metal chairs. It efficient, but not all that comfortable. We were the only ones eating inside. You could also take a seat outside in the covered patio, which was actually warmer with the heaters going. Got a friendly greeting by the Barista. Asked for a Latte and a London Fog. They were out of Earl Grey (along with Chai and some other teas), so they made it with a simple Black Tea. Did a good job with the rest of the recipe (little lavender, little vanilla and extra foam). For food we got a M40 Commuter (Egg, Sausage, Ham, Cheese on a Toasted English Muffin) and the Veggie Burrito. A few cookies, or muffins to choose from, but not much breakfast pastries (i.e. Scone) The drinks and the food were very good. Everything was hot, flavorful and nice portions. The M40 sandwich was delicious, and looked like it was made with care. The muffin was toasted (it actually looked grilled) and the home made cheese sauce gave it unique finish. The burrito was practically bursting at the seams. Both items were excellent choices. Nice place, but didn't make my "got to come back to list".

Mama D's was a pleasant surprise of a local coffee shop when I was in the Waukesha area. The…read moreoutside is assuming and small--but the menu was quite expansive! They had 7-8 specialty drinks, plus 4-5 seasonal choices. Choices spanned a Cherry Blossom latte with cherry and vanilla to a Flower Child Chai with lavender. A few baked goods were in the case, and a menu of lunchtime salads, soups and wraps. There is very limited seating inside, so it's definitely more of a grab and go spot, which works because there's a decent amount of parking for a coffee shop in downtown Waukesha. The baristas and cashiers were friendly and served us quickly!

Stopped in for the first time with a friend…read more Food: Ordered a hot beverage. I got a Mocha and a piece of their coconut cake. Both of them were very good. The Mocha had good flavor, and the right amount of chocolate (sometimes they can taste more like hot chocolate). They warmed up the cake and it was absolutely delicous. It was a good portion, with more than enough to share. My friend got the oatmeal, and that was also amazingly good. The bowl was brimming with oats and all the optional toppings. You like walnuts? There were enough in that one bowl to make a cake! Everything was delicious. My one criticism was that they do not have mugs for the hot beverages. Just not a fan of sitting down for a inside coffeeshop experience with a paper cup. Service: The people helping us out were both super friendly. Explained the different menu choices. They offer gluten "friendly" bakery, and let us know that they try hard to contain any cross contamination.. I don't have a gluten issue, but that was good to know. Gave great service for our entire stay. Atmosphere: The place is nicely designed. Plenty of natural light through the front and side windows. The seating is arranged for different size groups, and it was easy to have a quiet conversation. The design is simple, casual, and very open. It was a relaxing space. Would definitely come back again.

It was floral, sweet and had the perfect tartness from the blackberry and espresso combo. The Chai was one of the best I've had, super smooth, flavorful and a good amount of foam. It's cozy inside with comfortable seating. The music is a tad too loud but enjoyable. The staff were super kind and welcoming and that stood out to me in comparison to the other coffee shops I've been too. I'll definitely have this shop in my rotation!

I entered this establishment but chose not to stay after noticing Pride flag displayed on the…read morecounter. I prefer that businesses remain focused on their products and service rather than promoting any political or ideological symbols. In my view, such displays introduce unnecessary messaging into what should be a neutral commercial space. I would ask the owners to consider the reverse: Would they feel comfortable dining in a restaurant that prominently featured MAGA hats or comparable political symbols? Many customers hold different perspectives, and visible partisan or cultural signaling can alienate a significant portion of potential patrons. Businesses that choose to mix personal or political views with their operations risk losing customers who simply want to purchase a meal without encountering ideological statements. I have reached a point where I prefer to support establishments that keep these matters separate

Been here a bunch of times. It's a nice place, but it can be a bit inconsistent. This visit,…read morehowever, was a positive experience. I met a friend for a hot beverage and something to eat. I ordered a London Fog in a mug and a scone. The scone was excellent, with a great texture and not overly sweet. The London Fog was good, had nice flavor, and temperature. Could have been even better with a bit more care with the frothed milk. When we arrived, it was packed wall-to-wall with moms and children, maybe due to an event next door. It was very crowded and loud. By the time we left an hour later, the place had cleared out, and it was easy to have a conversation.

They even have jugs of water for you to take to your table which I appreciated a lot. Next time I'm in the area, I'd love to come back and try a coffee! My only negative is that our food took a very long time to come out. Although, it was definitely worth the wait!

Been here a few times in the past. This time, I came with a friend to get a hot beverage and a…read morepastry. Food: They have a large selection of breakfast pastries, including scones, cinnamon rolls, hand pies, and more. There are also some savory items, such as a rosemary biscuit. It was a tough choice, but when in doubt, I go for a scone, and they had a Maple Cinnamon one. I had it warmed up a bit, and it was delicious. These scones are not muffins in disguise, which means the texture is a bit drier and more crumbly--perfect alongside a hot beverage. For my drink, I ordered a London Fog Tea Latte. I was hoping to have it served in an actual ceramic mug, but those are only offered to customers who order drip coffee. That said, they made a very good London Fog, with a little extra lavender and plenty of foam. For my taste, it could have been a bit hotter. Service: Everyone who helped us was kind and helpful and gave us plenty of time to choose the perfect pastries. When ordering the London Fog, they explained how they make theirs and how they would add the extra lavender, which I appreciated. As mentioned above, they do not provide mugs for specialty drinks, using mugs instead to keep track of customers who have paid for bottomless drip coffee. I could bring my own mug from home, but I am not a fan of carrying around coffee shop essentials. Atmosphere: The building is nicely designed on the outside and sits on a corner with plenty of large windows that bring in natural light. It faces north, so you avoid the glaring morning sun. Upon entering, there is a short walk to the counter, where you can view all of the bakery and pastry items. A menu board above clearly displays the breakfast and lunch offerings, making it easy for first time visitors. There are numerous tables that accommodate small groups, and a fireplace with a couple of upholstered chairs offers a cozy seating option. Even after filling up with customers, the noise level was very good, and easy to have casual conversations. A nice visit and a place I would enjoy coming back to.
