    Chocolate peanut butter scone and psl
    Brooke A.

    Coffee was tasty but could have been a little hotter in my opinion. Peanut butter chocolate scone was delicious but also could have been warmed up for a better experience. Staff was friendly and service was quick. Still a handful of people lingering half hour before closing. Lots of seating options. Enjoyed the fire pit outside.

    Very cute little cafe that has delicious food and drinks. It's a bit expensive then I'd prefer, but the ambiance is great with a good mix of indoor and outdoor areas (couches, tables, bars, etc). Staff are really nice and goofy. It seems like it'd be a great study/meeting area. There's a little bit of parking as well. P.S. Pictures doesn't do it justice.

    Nice location with a small outdoor dining patio on the River. Good coffee and breakfast sandwiches. Nicely renovated old style building. A definite good stop for a morning beverage.

    A wonderful spot along the Milwaukee river for a coffee and a patio hang. The place has great vibes and a huge menu so looking forward to coming back soon to try more!

    Iced chai latte

    Love sitting out by the river enjoying a latte and muffin. The choco pumpkin muffin with oat flour was so good. Chai latte could use more spice, but it was okay.

    Riverside patio, which is pup friendly

    Fiddleheads is a great local coffee shop. This review is specifically for the Mequon location, however the Shorewood location is also great! (Those are the only 2 I've personally been to). The Mequon locations has an abundance of seating between their indoor seating, their heated glass enclosure (that also opens up for the summer time) and their outdoor patio. Located right next to the river, it makes for a scenic morning cup of joe. Their black coffee has good flavor, but I am a big fan of their breve lattes. Both my fiancée and I also love their breakfast sandwiches when we feel like treating ourselves. It's slightly pricier for a latte than some of the other coffee shops, however the quality is worth it.

    Whatever the little main street area of Thiensville might lack ever so slightly in the adorably charming factor (see: Cedarburg), in my mind it makes up for in convenience. Its slightly closer to get to from downtown, and the little yellow cottage with wraparound porch that houses the coffee shop is a block or so off the interurban trail. They have coffee and tea and all the drinks (lattes, chai, etc) one might expect. They also have smoothies, sandwiches (breakfast and otherwise) soups, baked goods, wraps, etc. Everything you might expect from a coffee shop. Theres outdoor seating on the little porch, as well as a number of tables and Adirondack chairs out back on a really beautiful patio facing the river. Inside its more like a little house, cottage-y like you'd find in a British mystery novel (or something). Staff has always been very pleasant and accommodating. A bike rack and parking lot are adjacent. The sign out front lists summer hours to 6:30 pm. I'm a fan - 4 stars.

    The new patio addition to Fiddleheads looks awesome!

    Sometimes perfection can be found in simplicity and that's just what this location has. Sitting by the river and enjoying a cup of their terrific coffee or one of their delicious sandwiches can make you forget you're right on Thiensville's Main St. but enjoying a seat in their quaint cafe during the cold months, which is most of them, can provide the same relaxation. And if that weren't enough, their new fire-place-heated patio, complete with garage doors on all three sides should do the trick.

    First and last time coming here! Should have just gone to Collectivo like usual. The lady at the counter was rude, no one in line behind us and she rushed our order. I didn't even end up getting what I wanted because she didn't give us time :(. Cookie was dry and had been sitting out all day. She didn't let me sign my receipt and I'm suspicious she added an undeserved tip. I don't think this new remodel can mask the rudeness. Don't make the mistake I did- GO TO COLLECTIVO!!!

    Great coffee! Awesome service. The ambiance depends on the time it can be very quiet on Sunday mornings which is nice
