Average sized coffee shop located in downtown Racine. The good: fresh roasted coffee is always better than stuff that has been sitting around. Pricing is fair as well. They have some chocolates and pastries available as well. The eh: I didn't hear our drinks being called and when I went to up confirm it was my beverage they said they didn't know, they didn't make it, and walked away. Kind of odd off putting behavior that has me in no rush to return. read more

Wonderful cup of Joe! Grabbed a bag of Sumatran beans to go; the cashier graciously ground it for me. Wish I'd tried some of the great looking baked goods--next time! read more

Extremely welcoming, pleasant and delicious! Their espresso and iced tea are excellent. Their baked goods are great and taste homemade. The employees are wonderfully friendly. The atmosphere is so homey and spacious, you feel no need to rush out. (There is a used bookstore a couple stores down. Grab a book and read for a while.) I am going to go out on a limb and say that this is one of those local coffee shops that stands out because they know how to brew and bake! I have been to Racine twice, and Wilson's Coffee & Tea seems like it will be part of any visit to the town. read more

Call me biased since I live about 1/4 mile from Wilson's but I don't mind. This shop is what I would consider one of the great Racine institutions. The furniture may not be all matching, and it may not have an aesthetic designed by a high end design firm, but that is what contributes to this place being a wonderful place. The coffee is top notch. You can tell it's breweries by folks who know what they're doing. The roasting done also in the same manner of care. One of the best coffee shops I've encountered in my life. read more

Great little coffee shop! They have some of the best coffee anywhere in the Midwest. Very exotic roasts and flavors. I've had coffee pretty much everywhere in the states, but I will always go back to Wilson's coffee. I am impressed by the quality and consistency of the coffee that they produce. The staff is very cordial and knowledgeable. Very reasonable prices. Simply the best! read more

Wilson's is a laid back, nonchalant kinda place. Service is good. I go there once in awhile to relax, sip a coffee & read, study, or meet with ppl. If you haven't been there it's nostalgic somewhat. read more

best coffee ever. i go here multiple times a week and never ever had a bad experience. their coffee is so good and strong its ruined other cafes for me because no one can beat the quality and care of their drinks. read more

This place is probably one of the best coffee shops I've ever been to. Cool ambience along with great coffee that is roasted in house.

Very polite and coffee is good. It's nice to have them 2 blocks away. They are not inexpensive by any means but better than a corporate store read more

If you're looking for homemade muffins and always great quality coffee this is it. Pretty healthy and not overly sweet like you would get at a grocery store. Unless you get lucky and they have the chocolate cupcakes. A true passion for great coffee and homemade baked goods! Get there early for best selection because they are a family business that can only bake so much. Good prices for the quality. read more

Oh Wilson's. You know how to do coffee! I love grabbing a coffee before heading next door to the Gold Bear. I'd like to sit and sip more but the atmosphere is really lacking. The space is large enough to really put in some comfy seating in addition to the tables and chairs. Decorate a bit and see what happens. The quality of the beans and the roasting is top notch! You can tell with every beverage that they really know what they are doing. I love Wilson's coffee and will continue to return. Street parking is easy. read more

Wilson's Coffee and Tea is just as advertised.... Simply wonderful coffee, cider and bakery. No great frills. Perfect!!!!

Amazing family owned coffee and tea shop with excellent iced tea and morning glory muffins!!! I'm hooked! The service is excellent too. They offer several coffees, teas, and other beverages. Plus, a variety of baked goods. The morning glory muffin is my favorite. It is a nice mix of spices and carrots and fruits. My favorite iced tea is the Ceylon black tea which is brewed to perfection. Definitely check them out, you'll be happy you did!! read more

Wilson's Coffee & Tea - 20oz to go iced tea and freshly baked morning glory muffin - simply delish! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Racine, Wisconsin

Nice little spot with friendly service. Not many places like this left they deserve all the support they can get! Good value for the money and the coffee tasted great. read more

I love that they're sticklers about wearing your mask indoors (unless you're seated, of course). The coffee is more natural tasting than their main competition. I always order their special of the day and am never disappointed. read more

When in Racine, I always stop by Wilson's for an iced mocha. The espresso is bold and strong without being acidic while the mocha is sweet without being overwhelming. A perfect combination. Moreover, they have a roaster setup onsite which is fun to see when stopping in. read more

I have been living near Wilson's for most of my life, and they never let down! The interior is simple, warm and welcoming with old-style wood floors and plenty of seating area. Whether you are coming for your favorite coffees, lattes, teas or a variety of delicious baked goods, Wilson's really does have it. The only downside would be that it takes some time to get your order, and if there is a line then it could be a wait. It's no drive-thru fast stop, but it's worth the time for their high quality products and customer service! read more

If I lived here, this might be the only coffee shop I'd visit on the regular. I was drawn in by the 5 star average, its proximity to North Beach Park and the hours: open on a Sunday. Excellent find! I'd compare the quality of coffee to that of Hansa in Libertyville, and Wilson's chai is bar none, the best chai we (me and the hubs) have EVER had. They have their own blend, and bonus-- they sell it in jugs to take and make at home. We enjoyed our hot bevvies with a yummy orange chocolate chip scone, which they make there with an array of other desserts and pastries like cookies, muffins, cake and the like. There weren't many pics on Yelp so it looked smaller to me than it is. It's actually quite large and roomy, filled with tables and chairs throughout, as well as patio tables outside. You won't find plush couches or chairs but we were quite comfortable. And it's clean, I'd say immaculate. I don't want to go home to our smelly, hairy dogs, as a result. ;) It was quiet when we arrived, having just opened at 10:30, but within minutes, it was bustling and vibrant. The locals clearly know where the good stuff is. The staff was sweet as can be, very friendly, attentive and welcoming! read more

Let's make this short and sweet so you can be sipping on your coffee sooner than you think. Wilson's Coffee & Tea is always hopping, but there's always a place to sit. Thankfully, there are communal tables, so if you don't mind making new friends, pull up a chair. When the weather is nice, they offer outdoor seating as well. Though there is always a place to sit, be conscious of the noise level. Wilson's has a friendly atmosphere, but it might not be your best bet for getting work done. If you are looking for a pastry, you can't go wrong with the Apricot Scone. Not to mention their Spice Apple Cider is literally to die for, just a whiff of it will make you weak in the knees. read more

Ooooo man that's some strong coffee. Hot me some at ten in the morning after having to get up at five and survive a meeting without it. But whut whut! This coffee was worth waiting for! Love the little 8 oz cup cos that's what I got and it gave me a buzz to last a while as well. Just with the single scoop of espresso. They have some funky coffee options, would love to come back and try the black forest coffee and the garden harvest coffee. The place is super cute with lots of space, outdoor seating and pastel green color on the walls. Cute big teapots too and they have a long list of cool and exploratory teas. I need to come back and check them out. Just took a bite out of my ham and pastrami sammie which isn't that great but would be solved with mustard- which they give for free- and some toasting. read more

I love the fresh roasted coffee beans. Very nice variety and always roasted within the last couple days.

Literally the best chai I have ever had! This place has such delicious drinks. It blows Starbucks out of the water.

This is the perfect charming small-town-feel coffee shop! The baristas were super friendly and the made the perfect Harvest Latte! I appreciated that they had dairy milk alternatives such as Oat and Soy. While you wait for your coffee you have the pleasure of looking around their shop, filled with unique seemingly handmade items and goodies! I enjoyed the Harvest Latte! read more

Best coffee and tea in Racine. I love to buy their whole bean coffee and grind it at home. They have a great variety of flavors!

Best coffee in Wiscönsin, and they have their own chai that most shops can't even come close. Get a morning glory muffin, and you'll drive past Starbucks to get some Dirty-chai, smoothie, and more. We also buy all our coffee beans from them. read more

Disappointing coffee. Disappointing attitudes. Disappointing atmosphere. The latte was scolding hot and burnt, and the woman working treated us very coldly. Based on the reviews on here, everyone else has had a very different experience with Wilson's, but I would not recommend this cafe. read more

I seriously don't go to Wilson's enough. Every time I grab a mocha there, I am more then delighted. They are pure magic. They only place where I can find something as delicious would be in a coffee hut in the Pacific Northwest. Racine is truly lucky to have such an awesome coffee shop. They really know what they are doing and it shows. read more

I visited Wilson's on a Saturday morning. The staff was warm and friendly. The place was filled with people enjoying their favorite drinks. Seating was available inside as well as outside. There are two inside seating areas, one by the windows looking out on the street and a second further inside the shop. There is an interesting variety of merchandise as well as a wide selection of coffee beans available for sale. Fresh coffee beans are roasted on site. The women's bathroom was bright and clean. Imported chocolates, sandwiches and pastry are also available.I had an enjoyable visit and would recommend this shop to others looking for a delicious cup of coffee or tea or somewhere to meet a friend and just hang out for awhile! read more

Great place to stop and have a coffee with your Danish or Fresh baked goods. I like the Chia tea the best.

My Husband and I stop by Wilson's once a month or so for a coffee date. I love that they take their time with the drinks, and aren't slopped together. I've had a few different options, however, the iced white mocha without cream on the top is my favorite. Quiet, friendly, and responsibly priced. I would definitely recommend! read more

This was a coffee shop before coffee shops were 'a thing'! A true original! I'm not a coffee drinker, but they do roast their own! And, my understanding is that they are pretty good at it! (One of the owners travels often to teach/share his knowledge) They also make their own chai, and it's the best around! We don't live real close, so we buy the concentrate to enjoy at home, between visits. The other fav is their Morning Glory Muffins! They do run out, so get one while you can! Wilson's is one of those place where you feel like a 'regular' no matter if it's your first or fiftieth visitor! It's quaint and unpretentious! read more

Love their chai latte! Bakery good are delicious too. Staff is friendly & helpful. Lots of drink options.

Traveling through Racine and very happy to find great Espresso, friendly and knowledgable Baristas and what appears to be a local hangout. read more

Wilson's Coffee & Tea - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Racine, Wisconsin

Ugh, I haven't had coffee this good in a while. A friend and I were passing through Racine, and we wanted coffee. A quick search on Yelp! finds this place, with a flawless 5-star average. This place is definitely a local's sort of place. It's comfortable and friendly and warm, and there's a roasting machine in plain view. There's quite a variety of beans you can buy in bags, plus plenty of Bodum products (french presses, pour overs, etc.) for the coffee enthusiasts. I got what I like to call a "fortified" Americano (3 shots of espresso). My friend ordered a cup of Dutch Windmill Cookie (or something like that), which wasn't on their menu. The barista gladly found some beans, ground them, and put them in a french press and gave my buddy a timer set to three minutes. It's quite an experience getting to press and pour a special blend that they didn't have on the menu. The baristas were friendly and my caffe Americano was stellar. Definitely a place to revisit and a strong recommendation to anyone who enjoys coffee in a casual setting. An even stronger recommendation to any coffee aficionados/enthusiasts. read more

My absolute favorite. I love local coffee shops, and this one is by far my favorite local shop, here or anywhere else for that matter. They roast their own beans, and they are exceptional at doing so. The pastries are good as well - I am particularly fond of the "Morning Glory" muffins. I wish they had a place to sit outside and smoke, but that certainly will not stop me from going there (I know we are a "dying" breed, us coffee drinkers who love a cigarette with a good cup of Joe!). They get nothing but the highest marks from me! read more

This is my new favorite tea shop. The selection of loose teas is exceptional. As a novice tea drinker, I appreciate the very helpful and knowledgeable staff. My go for tea is The People's Green Tea. Having moved back to WI from Texas, the Cowboy cookies are authentic and delicious. Is there a frequent customer program? Happy to drive from Pleasant Prairie to Racine to be a regular customer. read more
