    Ginger molasses cookie. Soft and wonderful.
    Warren D.

    Date of visit: September 15, 2024 We've started hitting a local bakery with some friends once a month with our first visit being local gem Matilda Bakehouse! The selection is a bit limited, especially on the savory side of things, so make sure that you get here early for the best options. We ended up staying for nearly two hours and never once felt like we were getting "the glare" to leave, which was nice. Also nice: The water available at no cost on the side counter. I didn't see an option to heat anything up, but maybe you just have to ask? Next time I come, I will try a coffee drink as well, this time around was just bakery items. My kouign amann was nearly as good as the one I had in Paris, though that one was salted caramel so it's a bit of an unfair comparison. Because we were there so long, I also had a ginger molasses cookie that was soft perfection. Definitely worth popping in for a treat!

    This was my first stop at Matilda's and I'm already planning when I can go back. I got a box of 6 pastries to share with my friend and her kids- the four of us devoured them! Everything in the box was Abolsutely amazing. The crusts were so buttery and light! The fillings were packed with flavor, and the cheese danish was light and citrusy!the employees were so nice and welcoming. I was offered so great reccomdations! The prices were very reasonable- 5 pastries costs $22 and was worth every penny. If you are in the Fox point area, make it a point to stop for something sweet or savory! Such a great treat.

    Very cozy place, although also spacious - you can bring a laptop and sit there for a while. I was asked if I'd like my danish warmed up; it turned out a little more crunchy than I prefer, but still very good. I will definitely come here again in a future. :)

    I love that we now have a place like this in the neighborhood! I particularly love their more savory options! Everything I've tried here has been super high quality and well made! We needed something like this around!

    Great experience at Matilda's Bakehouse! Store was very large interior (enough room to do work for school/work) and comfortable seating. Staff were super friendly and very helpful with our orders! The coffee was very impressive! I got a hot coffee but my girlfriend got an iced oat milk salted caramel latte which she thought was the best coffee she's had in months. The food was also very good! We had the s'mores croissant, ham and cheese croissant and confetti cookie. Our favorite was the confetti's cookie, it was delicious. Overall, if you are looking for high quality baked goods or maybe just a stop in for a quick bite and coffee, Matilda is definitely a spot I would recommend!

    I've enjoyed finding Matilda products in the past but was glad to see a brick and mortar! The location is easy to find, despite being in an area with not a whole lot around it. Our group enjoyed the chocolate almond pastry which was very good but very messy. The kids loved the cinnamon roll, and we also grabbed a to go back of the shortbread bites which are very tasty. They make a good iced chai too. They had a small side room with a large table which would be good for large groups or a smaller meeting. The spot is not a super convenient one but will definitely be back when I'm nearby next.

    Chocolate croissant / pain au chocolat

    The coffee shop is very pretty, and the croissants are beautiful. They have the normal price for a croissant around 5dollars. I just thought even they were beautiful they didn't taste amazing. I had a chocolate croissant and I only ate the chocolate, and left the left over of the croissant because it tasted nothing. , the coffee shop wants to give us a French cafe feeling but nobody speak French, some translation of their products is funny, like google translate. For the coffee part, have waited 10minutes for 2 lattes but it was busy in the coffee shop, it's anodyne coffee, it's not my favorite but was ok !

    Date of visit: December 14, 2025…read more Our monthly coffee date with our close friends took us this time to the Colectivo in Shorewood and it was good to be close from home given the frigid temperatures we were experiencing. I can't say that I've really spent any time at a Colectivo since the one at Bayshore closed, so this was a nice opportunity to reacquaint myself with their offerings and I came away impressed for the most part. For coffee, I went with the Peppermint Fluff Latte, and I must say it was an excellent choice on my part. They didn't skip on the mint and it really felt like a perfect drink for a cold day with Christmas just around the corner. Foodwise, I selected a cowgirl cookie (a bit too overcooked for my tastes, though the half of the salted choco cookie my husband ordered was quite good and I would recommend that one) and the Bacon Egg and Cheese Croissant. The croissant was a bit more squat than I was expecting, but it lent itself to the sandwich well and while a bit miserly on the cheese, it was overall a very good sandwich. I went five stars instead of four because the staff was really quite excellent. I fully expected the usual crew of hungover hipsters you see at most other coffee shops but instead I found a fun, friendly bunch that were happy to help.

The food menu is extensive (however definitely more of a breakfast/brunch place), I do wish they had more enticing lunch options. The kids play area is a nice addition that gives my toddlers something to do when we go. We did have an issue finding a table this time - it's been so cold and I think everyone and their mother was a stone creek to get out and do something. Luckily we were able to find a bar seat! The staff is always so friendly, patient and helpful - and they do beautiful latte art for drinks in house.

I was impressed with the staff's patience as I asked multiple questions about the baked goods. I ended up order a seasonal drink (based on the glowing review of another Yelper)- almond spiced pear latte and a banana bread. Both of which were excellent! The spice was not overwhelming and the overall flavor was very comforting. While my order came thru, I was able to notice the decor. There is such an attention to detail and cute fixtures to notice throughout the space. I was also happy to notice the water station that included both still and sparkling! If you're looking for an awesome coffee spot in the Milwaukee area, stop here or one of their other locations!

When i walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the staff seemed super nice, and were diligent about helping all orders ahead of me pretty fast paced. I've been dealing with a lot (hence the appointments mentioned) so finding new food places (and food places that are GOOD) always serves as a pick-me-up. I ordered a tuna melt, muffin, and hibiscus iced tea...that tuna melt was so good I completely forgot about taking a picture of it. But the banana chocolate chip muffin and iced tea were also some of the best morning goodies I've ever had. If it wasn't so much of a hike from where I actually live, I'd probably be an everyday regular here. Definitely delicious and would recommend visiting.

Could there be a better reason to stuff your face full of bread? Friendship Cafe and Bakery hits like home with a mixed staff who are warm, friendly and really are overjoyed to be at work. Some of which are actual graduates of the 12 month employment training program Friendship runs for adults with disabilities to get placed in amazing work environments to support themselves and make (guess what) FRIENDS. The cafe makes coffee drinks, refreshers, teas and other beverages along with every baked good you can dream up. Muffins, cake pops, cookies, cakes, bagels, strudels and delicious loaves of bread. This place also caters any mealtime and touts being able to provide menus that can be: nut free, Kosher, gluten free and dairy free. Customization is key and what they're there for! The distinguished Head Pastry Chef, Tara Forosisky-Benito, puts all her passion into her baked goods and breads. She's worked on this particular sourdough starter perfecting its makeup for a little over 5 years! And to make sure that the kitchen is always performing at the highest quality and speed, she's always 20 steps ahead in terms of prep and early mornings. I got a peek inside the kitchen after I heard all about their nonprofit mission and you could see the creativity popping and the drive to support some of the fellow employees was apparent. Oh, did I mention there's an art studio space, too? As if they aren't doing enough, they host art and little workshops like the popular "Art and Baking" for kiddos in the Fall. This cafe is remote work friendly (free WiFi!), has delicious drinks and baked treats all while supporting an important cause. Will definitely be making a bunch of trips back!
