I loved their seating areas: outside, couch seating, and tables. A great place to meet someone or work. They even have a small childrens toy area near the couches. Great windows with tons of natural light. It's a bit cluttered and dated but great neighborhood coffee shop vibes. They have some awesome merch. I loved their travel coffee tumblers. Note that the parking lot is always busy, but I've always been able to find a spot. They also have additional street parking on Midvale.

The inside was cozy and had ample seating for customers to stay and chat or do work-- although the coffee wasn't standout, I would go back for the convenience next to the Sequoya Public Library and the service/vibes :)

After visiting my Colectivo on a previous visit to Madison, I vowed to hit every location in the…read morecity and with my most recent visit and a stop by to this location, goal achieved! I fell in love with the brand via their downtown locations, tasty coffee, creative recipes, chill and local vibes, sustainable and a good cause. All the things! This location is a bit different than their downtown locations, not in service or menu, but it vibes, decor and overall space. This Colectivo is located in an older plaza with a bit of historical significance to the area. With that, Colectivo kept the bones and history of the place, including a cool fireplace inside, and ultimately arranged the restaurant around what was there, not the other way around. As with the other locations, I have an absolute favorite on the menu, an item I am utterly obsessed with...The Iced Cold Brew Oat-Chata. Absolute perfection in an iced coffee cup! Seems fairly simple, but it is complex, layered in flavors and just an enjoyable drink to chill with while hanging out here! As with the other locations, they do offer a bit of food from prepared meals and sandwiches to pastries and treats as well. Service is always stellar at Colectivo and this location is no exception. Overall, massive fan of Colectivo!

I had a very easy order to go at the counter (16 oz latte, skim milk, no foam). Repeated the order twice. Tipped for the order. Was served a cup that was 60-75% foam. Picked it up, immediately said "Um... i ordered this with no foam...this is ALL foam." Staff person poured it down the drain, giving me major attitude. Not a "sorry, I'll make you a new one" ...not a word actually. Little things matter. Headed back to EVP from now on...much, much friendlier service.

The place has a relaxed, comfortable vibe that worked well for a casual hour. Glou Glou had a partnered food truck outside, from which I grabbed dinner. Made things easy and I appreciate the local business supporting local business supporting local business thing going on among the three entities. I ordered wine based on the owner/operator's recommendation. The service felt personal and I suspect people that know about wine (not me) could have good conversation at the bar with her about such. Overall, it was a simple but enjoyable night, and the kind of spot I'd return to when I want something low-key but well done.

The barista was friendly and helped me pick out a drink, which I appreciated. My coffee tasted smooth and was made just the way I like it. It was also nice to have a quieter environment where I could focus without feeling crowded. Parking was simple and the whole visit felt relaxed and easy. The only thing that would make it even better is having a few more drink options, but I still had a great experience and would definitely come back.

We stopped here when looking for a place near the mall for coffee, and had a very pleasant experience. The staff at the register made good suggestions and they were very friendly. It's not a huge space, but there were enough tables for everyone who was gathering in the coffee shop and our drinks were very good. Since we were staying there to drink and converse, our coffees and teas came in very cool ceramic mugs that were just fun to drink out of. It's nice that this place is near stuff, far enough away from the mall chaos, and still has a nice sized parking lot.

Upon walking in you immediately know you're going to love the place. It's so cute and cozy. There is indoor and outdoor seating, cute decor, and chocolate galore. 2. I ordered the drinkable hot chocolate. It was good, although a little thick. I would have wanted a bit of almond milk to thin it a bit but I loved how rich it was. My daughter also got the kids chocolate frappe (I think that's what it was called) she loved it! 3. We received one free truffle each since it our first time there. We ordered the mint, vanilla bean, and turtle truffles. I also ordered the sea salt caramel truffle and my daughter got a gaming boy stick chocolate. So cool. 4. We also tried their cookies so tasty! 5. The lady working was sooooo sweet. Omg, she truly was. I'm so sorry I didn't get her name but she made us feel welcome (almost everyone in Wisconsin made us feel that way) and she was no different. What a pleasant experience as we headed back home. Highly recommend that you drop in when you are in the Madison area!

A few weeks ago i ordered 2 quad hot caramel macchiatos but after I drove away I discovered neither one had any caramel in them. So I drove back and told them there was no caramel and could they please put it in. They told me they would put some more in. They didn't apologize at all. I told them there was none in it and they kept saying they would put "more" in. I was getting a bit perturbed that they were implying that they had put it in and would now add more and I must be mistaken when I said there was none. When I insisted that there was absolutely no caramel in them, one girl rolled her eyes and said again they would put more in. I spent almost $14 for no caramel so I was getting upset at the attitude and finally said "are you calling me a liar? There is no effing caramel in them at all!" She then says she won't be serving me because I was so angry and I left with my $14 worth of coffee flavored milk. I threw them out when I got back home and vowed never to ever go back to MOKA. The owner lost about $3000/year because of these terrible employees. The way they treated a longtime customer that had spent so much money there was very upsetting. I will never go there again and will badmouth MOKA to anyone that will listen until the day I die.
