    Black sesame miso cardamom latte
    Hesper W.

    A nice coffee shop with a view of the Capitol. It was really empty when I got there when it just opened on Thursday morning and my drink came really quickly. I like how there is a menu of new flavor combinations, so I had to get the black sesame miso cardamon latte. It had a very strong black sesame flavor, so I couldn't really taste the miso. Would love to come back to try the other flavors though!

    I went to the farmers market and was itching for a latte to sip on while we strolled--thank goodness Wonderstate is right on the corner by the Capitol! On a Saturday morning during the farmers' market, Wonderstate has an additional counter taking customers from outside on the sidewalk serving cold brew and hot coffee. If you go inside, the line is long but worth it in order to get iced lattes and other specialty drinks. When we went, they had a Peach Blossom specialty latte that was delicious, but not too peach-forward. You can still taste that the espresso was very high-quality and balanced. The latte was sweet but not too sweet. The inside of the cafe is light and bright and has plenty of booth-style tables if you need a break from walking around the market. I hope to visit again sometime soon!

    This place is okay. $20 for coffee and an avocado toast is ridiculous. I waited in a line longer than a mile, but the coffee came pretty fast. The place seems very sterile though. It is not cozy.

    In reflection of our Wisconsin trip (Milwaukee & Madison), Wonderstate stands out as our favorite coffee visit! We came 2x and once had to wait quite a while given it was a busy Saturday with a lot happening downtown, and it was so worth the wait! We loved our lattes! The espresso quality was rich and the drinks not too sweet or too milky, but balanced just right! We tried and loved both the maple and vanilla bean lattes! Staff was friendly, working hard and fast to keep up with the line out the door. The aesthetic is open, bright, and airy. Pastries looked delicious and the merch was so tempting - esp the organic cotton and hemp products! Appreciated the still and sparking water tap available for customers and clean restrooms!

    Wonderstate coffee has to be the best coffee shop on the capital. Their sea salt caramel latte is delicious and their food is always top notch. It's usually very busy with students but there is a lot of seating and it's always very bright and sunny and nice to spend time in this space.

    OMG Wisconsin was definitely the frozen tundra this week so coffee was a must! This well lit coffee shop is the perfect location to stop in before or after taking a tour of the State Capitol. Enjoyed a breve latte topped with a beautiful foam heart and a plain bagel with blueberry cream cheese.

    Amazing coffee and breakfast options! Big glass windows support your productivity with a great view of the Capitol and great ambiance

    This was our first time here. Great service, in a bright and welcoming space, and a delicious homemade chai latte.

    avocado toast
    Izzy R.

    the place is BEAUTIFUL and bright, staff is friendly and accommodating, and the food is fantastic! eggs were perfectly poached and the toast is crunchy and nutty. might be the best avocado toast in the area. can't bring myself to give it anything below five stars.

    A wonderful coffee house right across from the state house in Madison, WI. It's a spacious space with windows all around the coffee house. Loved all the drinks and food we got. We decided to eat in, but somehow someone else took our drinks from the counter so they had to make the drinks again. Aside from that our experience was good.

    Maple latte

    This coffee was great. It was super packed & the baristas weren't super nice but I didn't care once I sipped this coffee. Maple latte was 10/10

    Iced Chai latte with Oat Milk and a Blueberry Muffin
    Isabella K.

    Pros: * Amazing view of the capitol * Delicious house-made chai * Friendly staff * Absolutely bangin' playlist * Yummy blueberry muffin (hint of lemon?) * Lots of seating * Bubbly and still water options at water bottle filling station * Super bright and airy * Smells delicious in here, almost like warm spices Cons: * Difficult to find nearby parking * Seating options aren't very comfortable * Limited outlets for charging devices * Lowkey kinda expensive * The smell of the shop could be overwhelming for people with sensitive noses * Some could perceive the decor as sterile

    Welcome to Wonderstate Coffee, Madison

    Super busy today with some sort of farmer's market in the square so there was a long queue of folks getting coffee. I was fine with that, managing to find a seat and figured that I would spend a bit here to charge electronics while enjoying a coffee. And yes, the coffee was decent but I opted not to stick around since there are no power outlets here and my phone was low. On to the next! [Review 20692 overall - 262 in Wisconsin - 1673 of 2023.]

    Feels really nice inside to sit and relax. I tried the vanilla bean speciality latte drink and I liked it. Cold brew coffee was a bit sour.

    We make a point to go 10 miles out of our when traveling through Madison to enjoy the avocado toast and speciality coffees.

    Very nice open space. Very clean and minimalist vibes. My vanilla bean latte was good and my bagel sandwich was great.
