Discourse Coffee | Downtown

Is this coffee straight from Heaven? Its like a bar, but with coffee and tea! Best freaking coffee I have ever had in my life! My fiancé accidentally ordered a tea thinking it was coffee. This shocked me bc he is not a tea guy. It was phenomenal. He loved it. We went back a second time before leaving the city for round 2, and so he could get a coffee that round. Bring one to Rochester, MN please!

The miso butter cookie was so good, and the croissant was okay too. I don’t recommend the matcha latte, it tastes very fruity, and it’s a bit too sweet. I like that the atmosphere inside is very calm, and there’s seating outside.

Best coffee of my life! I had the motorhead. Well worth the drive. Words can't describe the pure bliss of the experience. I will be back as often as possible!

Great shop! Creative, “cocktail style” latte drinks. They put craft and effort into their lattes. I tried the Moonwater and one seasonal drink. Both were excellent! I personally prefer their pour over coffee. They use different coffee roasters and rotate them. Good place to do work or meet up and enjoy some coffee craft. Staff was friendly and helpful. I stayed for the vibe and came back for the coffee

Been to the other location several times. First time at this location. Situated right across the street of MSOE Student Union. Inside there are several different seating areas. We hunkered down in some very large, very comfortable chairs. Gave our order to a very friendly server/barista. Got one of my favorite tea lattes, the Lana Del Ray, their craft take on the London Fog. Wanted to get some kind of bakery, but they only had a couple cookies or brownies, nothing as interesting as what they have at the other location. And not even a scone. That was disappointing :( When I got the tea latte it was good (not great), it was more lukewarm than hot. I will make a note to be sure to ask for it at the right temp. Good flavors, and I enjoy the orange peel garnish. The vibe is pretty chill, with some people working on their laptops. Very easy to have a conversation. If I looking for the full Discourse experience, I"m likely to go to the other location in the Third Ward.

best coffee I've ever had. i have alot of coffee. specifically the drink called the pappy. thought about this place evreyday since. im going back soon.

With drink names like Moonwater and Motörhead, what’s not to love?! I was staying at the Pfister Hotel a few blocks away when someone suggested a quaint, cool vibe coffee house named Discourse Coffee. If you’re not looking for the entrance, you’ll probably walk past it. Even with a sign adorning the side of building, I had to double back, and still questioned if I was allowed to enter what looked like a side door entrance into Rydell High featured in the movie Grease. So worth it! The staff was genuine, patient, and very nice answering my questions about their proprietary concoctions. If you’re not adventurous, they have your standard fare drinks too. I chose the Parisian and claim it as one of the best drinks I’ve ever had. I hope to get back soon to try the Motorhead before I return home to North Carolina.

Great little coffee shop with an inclusive atmosphere. Right in the heart of MSOE and open to everyone. Read, conversate, or just bring your laptop and chill. Many custom creations along with your classics. Make it a point to stop in. Whenever I return to Milwaukee this will be stop to make.
