The Coffee House at Chestnut & Pine

Been here a few times before, and it’s always been a good experience. It’s a restored building in a vintage-looking part of downtown. The front has large windows, a couple of patio tables, and bright yellow mums that invite you to step inside. Once inside, it’s a big space with a chill vibe. The order counter is large, with a few seats and a good view into the barista area. There’s plenty of seating for different-sized groups, plus an elevated seating and stage area at the back. It was late Monday afternoon, and there were only a couple of other people inside. I got a friendly greeting from the barista and help with my order. I went with my usual London Fog Tea Latte in a mug (little lavender, little vanilla, extra foam). I also wanted some bakery, but the only options were cookies and brownies, so I chose the Molasses Cookie. Along with that, I ordered a Peach Mango Refresher. The beverages and cookie were good. The refresher was made with half coconut milk, which added some richness. The London Fog was decent, and the cookie was chewy and flavorful. It made for a very relaxing time, sitting on a sofa and reading a book. On the way out, we browsed the small wine and grocery room off to the right. Lots of interesting spices, wines, vinegars, and gift ideas. This is definitely a place I’ll stop in again.

This place has a lot of seating. I say this because from the outside, I was worried that maybe I wouldn’t get a spot to sit, but if you never been there before once you go into the cute entrance, it opens up and there’s a lot of space. There’s a nice little shop on the side inside. Yoy can order breakfast or lunch items and service was good. They had some really yummy flavors. I couldn’t wait to try the banana cream pie latte. And we got a dessert treat from in the case. Next time I’m in Burlington. I’ll stop again.

Great atmosphere, cute wine room, Up stairs has a spiral staircase you can walk up or use the elevator to go have a few cocktails during happy hour at the 'Liar's Club'. They have an outdoor patio with lights. Open mike on Thursdays and endless drinks. From coffee to tea to cocktails.

Nice place, great coffee. Closing at 2 just like all the other coffee joints means they’re not getting the business the others are losing out on. It’s a shame that on the weekend our only options in this town are Starbucks which is not an option, and bars. In my opinion, you’re missing out on families, singles, and mid day dates. I’d come there now but you close soon. Last time I was there, there was 6 tables of people enjoying them selves 5 minutes before closing. Being a place people can group up and caffeinate before their night out is very valuable. Considering the fact that there are many bars in this area. My attached photo indicates that the time they’re closing is their second most busy hour of the day…. Open at 8, open at 9 minimum revenue, closing at 2 during second peak. Strange business decisions.

I hate leaving bad reviews but I hope this serves as an important reminder to the owner as to why it’s so important to check up on your employees. All the girls were on their phone when I walked in. Literally every single one. So I was immediately annoyed and felt ignored. They also couldn’t answer basic questions and it was a struggle just to speak with me. So good luck holding a real job when adult life comes knocking. Good Lord. The kitchen took 15 minutes for the easiest order and then they forgot my side. I only leave bad reviews when I get super annoyed by terrible service and today was one of those days. You can either be mediocre in life or demand greatness and push yourself and the people around you to be the best. That’s how every business should be run and if it stinks at the bottom, it most likely stinks at the top. Do better.

I dont like leaving negative reviews. This is not that I am trying to be make you not go Ijust want you to be prepared when you arrive. If your looking for smiles and employees to greet you with any positive emotions this is not your place. If you want great drinks and good food with dry emotional interaction this is your place. This is not a review on more then one employee. We encountered two and it was awkward and if a person could be less helpful at helping you purchase and find your drinks definitely would be the girls working here behindthe counter! No guidance at all!....Jeez. Also its a Saturday at noon!

This place is way bigger on the inside and is super good at making coffee. That being said you will fall in love with this place! Just don't bring a blind date here. You're not going to want to avoid it if it doesn't work out. Learn from my mistakes!

Such a great place to go to! The servers are great and everyone is so friendly, especially Matt. His knowledge at the bar at the liars club is wonderful and he's so funny! Definitely makes it an enjoyable time. The drinks and food are to die for, 10/10, would recommend.

I always love stopping at The CoffeeHouse when I visit Burlington--their breakfast and menu options are usually fresh, healthy, and delicious. One of my go-to items has been the quiche, which I've enjoyed many times in the past. Unfortunately, on my most recent visit, I was really disappointed. I ordered the veggie quiche, and it was extremely watery, with eggs that tasted undercooked. I mentioned it to a staff member at the counter, who said she'd "mention it to the kitchen" and "keep an eye out." Given how much I've supported this place over the years, I hoped for a bit more than that. I ended up going to the kitchen myself, and thankfully, another staff member offered to make me a new quiche, cooking it a little longer. I really appreciated her willingness to help. However, the second quiche had the same issues--it was still very watery, and this time the crust tasted like burnt popcorn. Unfortunately, I had to toss both quiche and left feeling disappointed. I really hope this was just an off day because I'd love to continue supporting a place I've enjoyed for so long--but runny eggs are my worst nightmare. lol

This was such a cute coffee shop/ store all in one. They had great drink, pastry, and food options. There were so many fun seasonal drinks - I wish I could try them all. There was plenty of parking & seating available. Service was very friendly and quick.

This place is so cute and quaint. They have several options for drinks from Black coffee to seasonal lattes. The staff was super friendly and very helpful .

Burlington in general is an underrated little gem in southeastern Wisconsin and this coffee shop is no exception. Comfy, airy surroundings, friendly baristas, and delicious drinks (particularly their London Fog latte) combine for a great first spot to visit and sit down for a bit whenever I'm in the area.

Delicious pastries and coffee here. Their smoothies are phenomenal! It gets busy here, so plan on that.

Had a great experience right here in downtown Burlington! The line is steady but the service is swift and the coffee worth the wait. The decor is inviting and this place is spacious; complete with small and large tables a plenty along with comfortable couches towards the back. The only thing I would change is to allow dogs inside. We were traveling through on vacation and would've liked to bring our fur baby in with us. Otherwise, a great place!

We're on our way home from a trip and decided to take a little side trip through Burlington. We are glad we did, and glad that we found the coffee house. My husband got the breakfast sandwich to split with her daughter. He said it was good and she loved the fruit. I got the breakfast flatbread. It looked great but was a little on the bland side if I am being honest. We were happy to be able to enjoy outdoor seating. No need to worry about COVID outdoors. Seating was clean, if a bit noisy sometimes from the traffic going by. I though the coffee was good and prices were reasonable. I would stop here again.

There is a special event venue on the second floor called The Window Room. The Coffee House is located on the ground floor in the same building. Laura Kelly is the event coordinator-did a fantastic job managing my son's wedding rehearsal dinner. They prepare lighter food in their own kitchen and partner with Zumpano's Italian Restaurant (located across the street) which gives you many choices when planning your menu. When you rent the Window Room, you also have direct access to the cocktail lounge -The Liar's Club-located across the hallway. This situation offers your guests access to outstanding craft cocktails, beer and wine, a cool balcony overlooking downtown Burlington, and a beautiful special events room with floor to celling windows. This is a super cool small event venue that I highly recommend.

Cute spot in this small downtown area. Tons of menu items including lots of unique teas and coffees. They have a small food menu. Lots of seating and a nice modern atmosphere. Had an iced vanilla latte and it was good, very light flavoring but the coffee is smooth and not too strong. Check this place out if you're in the area.

Great atmosphere, food, drinks and staff. I did want to suggest that the baristas write your name on the drink cups instead of just reading out the name of the drink when they're ready. I saw a lot of confusion when people ordered the same drink (or slight variations of the same drink) and customers being confused on who the drink was for when they called it out.

Driving through the quaint town of Burlington Wisconsin and was craving some coffee. Noticed this cute little shop on the corner and knew I just had to go in and get some! Inside the cafe there's a beautiful and giant chalk wall with some amazing chalk art informing customers about the different types of coffee they serve. There's a very quiet and cozy vibe about the cafe, it seemed like a great place to get some work done and relax, or hang out with friends and socialize. I ordered a small iced P.S.L ($4.60) and a medium iced P.S.L ($5.30), as well as a Roasted Chicken sandwich ($12.00) for my family. The baristas were so kind with answering all of my questions, and the drinks came out fast! The sweet cream cold foam was thick and yummy, and the prices were not bad at all. The sandwich was very filling and came with a side of chips. My total after a 20% tip and taxes was $27.60. The total price was worth every penny because the quality of everything was top notch and delicious. I have absolutely no complaints. I'm sad I don't live near this town, but if i ever come through again It's a necessity to stop by!

First time in and not last! Love the aesthetic and history behind the building. Service was good, the place was packed at 1:30 when I was there. Walked into their wine/ food finds space, sorry missed the name. Found a couple of things to purchase and then onto the coffee. I was honestly surprised with my cappuccino, it was delicious. I can't wait to return try some food and just relax in the space.

Very cute place! Always friendly staff... coffee is delicious, kinda pricy, but to be expected from a nicer small coffee shop. I've only gotten food from there once, I got their everything bagel, was pretty good. Just a little over toasted from my liking. Will definitely be coming back for more coffee!

First time visiting this adorable and charming restaurant. We were in the Burlington area after a morning of apple picking and stopped in here for lunch. We were not disappointed! Their bakery is delicious - we tried the pumpkin pie bar and the lemon bar! For lunch I had the Pepper Turkey sandwich, my husband had the roasted chicken sandwich, and our daughter had the grilled cheese. All sandwiches were very good and made with fresh ingredients! We also tried the Mixed Berry smoothie which we all enjoyed very much! They have an open mic night and music as well. Special dinners - such as a fish fry on some Fridays. If you are thinking about checking this place out for food, coffee, or even just a snack don't hesitate to pop in!

What's not to like about an adorable coffee shop in a small downtown spot? The Coffee House at Chestnut & Pine reminds me of a spot in an old movie. Time stands still here. The charm, service and tasty coffee is perfection. We enjoyed some time here one afternoon and left satisfied. There's plenty of seating on couches, tables and the bar area. You can even browse through a book or two, kindly provided by the shop. I will certainly stop in again, the next time I'm in town.

Their baristas (used to*) make the best pour-overs my wife and I have ever had (outside of urban areas and places like Intelligentsia, Stumptown, etc.); they're phenomenal! As good or better as anything we've had at Colectivo shops in Milwaukee. * Unfortunately, some time after I wrote this review, their pour-over quality plummeted due to dismal technique (that I personally watched) that resulted from their being too busy to properly use a V60. I wish they switched to a more forgiving brewer (like a chemex, or better yet, a clever dripper). A couple consecutive bad cups resulted in my wife and I not driving to Burlington just for their coffee anymore. They still deserve 4 stars, though, for the lovely space, tasty baked goods, and interesting flavors/specialty lattes.

The food tastes fresh and the portions are more than adequate. Service is good. Ambiance fairly quiet except when customers occasionally talk loudly. Could use more plants to improve ambiance. All in all one of my favorites in Burlington.

This is truly a Burlington gem! Their iced matcha is to die for, and I used to get one a few times a week when I lived down the street. They have open mic nights and festivals are hosted down the street and all around this building. They have a speakeasy type bar upstairs on the weekend called The Liars Club with speciality cocktails and a cozy, warm atmosphere, along with a rentable, beautifully decorated space across the hall. Carly, who manages The Coffee House, is so accommodating to your vision if you contact her when planning an event. She promptly put together quotes for me when I worked as an Event Planner for a local company. She is punctual and responds to your emails very quickly, which is much appreciated when planning a big event! I also need to mention that the first floor is unique and decorated very rustic. Artists can sell their work, and it's hung on the brick walls inside. They also offer outdoor seating. When I lived in Burlington, it was always nice to see friendly faces and the employees would remember me. That was nice! This is also a great place to bring your laptop to work, read a book, or meet an old friend. I also have to mention that you can rent the room on the bottom floor at no cost. You just have to call to reserve it. This helped so much for company meetings! The Coffee House also has delicious healthy options and they don't overfeed you, so you won't leave feeling sick and stuffed after your meal. I highly recommend The Coffee House!

Cute place to catch up with friends. Coffee and breakfast sandwiches are good. Not much to offer for gluten free patrons ( but they do have GF bread for the sandwich).

Great service, cozy interior, and reasonable prices... oh, and the coffee was pretty great too.

Such a charming location with delicious coffee! (I was here for a work trip and came every morning!)

What a great spot for coffee and a bite to eat! My husband and I were passing through town and stopped here for a caffeine fix and a quick brunch. The caramel turnover latte was explained to me as similar to Starbucks's caramel macchiato -- in fact, this was MUCH tastier. It's too bad this isn't close to us. Or maybe that's a good thing?! We also ordered a hot turkey sandwich -- smaller portion that expected, but there was quite a lot of turkey in there and it was really good. The (very small) side salad was really some greens and vinaigrette, which was tangy but still delicious. The price was decent for the amount of food given. We likely won't find our way back here, but it was a nice half hour spent inside.

I had a coffee here today 10/26/21. I ordered a Large Mocha. Yes I'm a coffee snob and have been here dozens of times without issue and usually receive a great cup of coffee. Today the expresso tasted burnt, 3/4 of the cup was foam. Very little flavor. I expect way better. This was a major disappointment and shows lack of attention and training. Lastly, I've seen a few other reviews similar as of late. Should tell management something :/

Great place to grab coffee and a bite to eat in Burlington! Very friendly staff, and made-to-order food! They have a La Marzocco espresso machine, so you know their espresso drinks are made well!

I seldom give 5 stars but I will give it to this place. It has some of the best coffee in the region and I hate saying this, because people will probably be there more frequently and the line will probably be longer. The atmosphere is pretty cool. It's a little more in the trendy side... something like you would see in places like downtown Chicago. The Baristas know what they're doing and if you're a coffee snob, I highly recommend this place. The City of Burlington is growing and it's becoming little more of a "known gem"...Apropos that this place should be one of those things.

We appreciated their COVID protocols which made us feel safe having a wonderful Cappuccino inside.

Good cold brew and drink selections, wish they had unsweetened matcha and a dairy free food option!!

The food is amazing! Very different from the average sandwich shop. They offer hot and cold sandwiches, protein bowl and flatbreads. The bagels are to die for as well as the cinnamon rolls! You won't be disappointed!

Great place to meet with friends or family for a cup of coffee! Crowded on certain nights, but well worth the wait! Starbucks has nothing on this shop!

Love this small town coffee shop! Can be slow at times but the bakery items and coffee are always great.

It was such a joy that I found this place. I was in the neighborhood (40 minutes away from my home) for a retreat and needed some real coffee... Desperately.. Thankfully one of my colleagues also has the Yelp Bug and found this place on yelp. Five minutes away. YEAH THE YAY I have to admit.. the coffee house definitely surprised me. I am not from Wisconsin ( or the midwest for that matter) and felt that Burlington was a very rural town. When I walked into the Coffee house I was amazed by its decor. The first thing you notice is the bright yellow doors and a pinstriped roof. It continued to get better as you walked in There was a spiral staircase, a blue room which had books for sale. Open Mic days... Bright comfy couches surrounding chairs and tables for studying and chatting. It was fabulous. I only tried the chai tea latte but it was so very good! I loved it. The girls I went with also got varying types of coffees and teas and had nothing but great things to say about it. Makes me wonder what other things this Burlington has to offer.. THE NAY got nada THE GIST The likelihood of me visiting this place again is slim (unless we do the the same retreat next year), however I am glad that in all the things I did in Burlington, drinking a cup of tea at this one was one of them.

Great little coffee house in downtown Burlington. Good food, good value, friendly staff.

I often tell people that because my first experience of Burlington was the Coffeehouse, I knew I would like living here. That remained true the three years I lived in town. The staff are generally very friendly and helpful. The coffee is fantastic! (Get a pour-over. You will not regret it.) And the food has gotten better and better since adding the bakery. It's a great atmosphere whether you want to sit and drink coffee while reading, or meeting with friends or casual business meetings. And it's become a community center for good music, offering live music every weekend. I'd move in if I could :)

This very old building which was, in Burlingtons' hey day, an insurance office is a great spot! Downstairs is the coffee shop and they do a nice job on the products served, and the place is big and open and I enjoyed being there. Upstairs is "The Liars Club", which I've been to in the past, but not on this trip (unfortunately -- I'm told they put in an outdoor area up there). Only "knock" I'd give is some of the servers were really aloof and reminiscent of attitudes seen about 10 years ago - no eye contact, no "please", no "thank you" -- just sort of that "whatevah, I'm into grunge and goth.." thing -- outdated. Seriously kids -- if someone orders $12 of products and gives you a $5 bill as tip -- say thanks or at least smile.

Lots of great options during Covid: curb side, online ordering, outdoor seating etc. I was surprised they were totally closed for such a long period of time. I support being closed and keeping employees safe! I just wish the communication had been better with the public and staff. **** If you got please tip cash at the bar or cafe and employee informed me that the credit card tips are split amounts all staff. If you want your barista or bartender to get that tip go cash!!!

The coffee is just fine the food is just fine, but the service is absolutely horrible. It takes five minutes to get a bottle of water, when nobody's in there. They need to have an adult working there.

What a cute place. Plenty of seating couches etc I had a fabulous beet salad and cappuccino. I'll be back

My wife and I were passing through and stopped by here for a quick bite to eat and some coffee. It's got a bit of industrial vibe but still cozy. I ordered a pepper turkey hot sandwich with a side salad. Price was a little too much for the portion, but the taste of the sandwich made up for it. It had more turkey than I expected. The dressing on the salad was pretty tangy but still flavorful. If we lived locally, we would probably come here often just for that sandwich alone. My wife liked her caramel turnover latte.

What a great little place! My co-worker and I stopped in for a quick lunch on our way to a meeting and we were both happy we did. I had a tuna melt and my co-worker had the homemade quiche. My sandwich was very good. My co-worker enjoyed the quiche, although she said it was a bit too thick (the piece had to be 3 inches tall). The interior is quaint and comfortable and there's a cool staircase toward the back. You order at the front counter and your food is brought to you. The service was quick and friendly, which was nice since we were a little rushed. This place definitely seems like a hidden gem!

This coffee house is an adorable spot in downtown Burlington...and that was about the only thing I liked about it. Their flow for ordering wasn't clear to me as a newbie. They messed up the order ahead of me not once but twice even though there were three people there to get it. I resorted the quiche, it came out burnt and overly salted. My latte was crazy sweet, I'm not sure there was coffee in it. Maybe I'm biased from other experiences but there has to be a better coffee house here

Very nice little coffee house in downtown Burlington. Great atmosphere, kind staff and wonderful food!

Great place in Burlington to stop and have coffee. They are also building a kitchen that should open soon for you carb lovers out there. For me it's black coffee and theirs is good. Nice big space to enjoy it in and some tables outside for a fresco coffee. They have music occasionally too and a piano if you dare. For us adult bev types they have a few good microbrews available too. It's nice to see something spring up in Burlington and hopefully will drive more small local places to pop up (hello wine shop...)

A lovely local coffee shop--and I consider myself a bit of a coffee shop connesiour. We were in town visiting for the Chocolate Festival, so on the Memorial Day morning when we stopped in, it was a fairly lively place. Our host told us that this recently opened establishment has become a cornerstone of town, including entertainment on what I assume to be their generously sized back stage. In the morning, the generous windows let in a good amount of light, and the good-condition but mismatched furniture gives the whole place the homey feel of a gathering place--like all the furniture just came together to hang out, and you can too! Similiarly, there was a collection of for-sale art around the place that was a nice addition as well. The scone I had was excellent--an almond bit of wonderfulness that was moist and flavorful, several qualities that are often not the case for scones. The baristas were also friendly and flexible, agreeing to add espresso to my request for a blended hot chocolate. And also... the bathroom. Maybe this is a weird thing to comment on, but they had a ridiculously nice bathroom. It is meticulously kept and includes fixtures far nicer than the ones in my house! Evertything is far beyond the "minimum acceptable," which is what I would like to say about the place in general.

A delicious southwestern quiche with arugula salad to start the day. Breakfast rounded out with a lovely hot vanilla latte. Welcoming, vibrant with great food.

I came here for the first time a couple weeks ago after visiting the sunflower field that's just south of Burlington, and I liked it so much, I came back within a week (even though its about a 45 min drive for me). The coffee is really really good - I ordered an iced caramel turnover (which is essentially the same as Starbucks' iced caramel macchiato). My quarrel with Starbucks coffee is that it has such a sharp, almost burned taste that makes it less appetizing to me, and the coffee here was the exact opposite of that: it was smooth and was complemented perfectly by the sweetness of the caramel. The atmosphere of the coffee shop is cute, trendy, and welcoming. the two times I've been there, it wasn't too crowded, which made it very pleasant.

Great atmosphere and great coffee. Will return. Out with friends in Burlington and we stumbled on this place. It is a very new coffee shop run by a family. They were all there and very friendly. told us the whole story of their new venture. We just had coffees but they were all very good. They take the time to individually brew each beverage. The atmosphere was very relaxed. We sat in a living room type grouping and enjoyed ourselves. I loved it and I will go back the next time i am in Burlington

I like this little coffee shop a lot. Very good coffee, and it's usually pretty easy to get a good spot to sit. Only once have I settled in, watching for a better spot to open up. The one thing I don't like is the emphasis on the beer and wine later in the day. I'm not sure exactly when that all starts, but it makes me feel like I'm sitting in a place that has a double life.

In short, this was not worth the trip from Milwaukee to come down for a cup of coffee (and also a sandwich). Coming here on a Monday, it was pretty much just me and my laptop; a little later a few others came, but overall slow and it was quiet. The tables were not very good for what I came for, doing homework...I could barely fit my laptop and the plate with food together on the table comfortably. I noticed a room that had a longer wooden table in it, and asked if I could use that one...the barista said it would be okay as long as nobody had it reserved. At first, I thought this would be better, but opted for my original table, after seeing how hot it was inside there (it's across from the kitchen area). Overall, this cafe really has more of a restaurant type feel, as the tables have vases with water and flowers in them (I asked if I could move mine to the table behind me). Also, there are one-sided menus on a stand right before you enter the seating area...so in conclusion, I'm big on atmospheres; so hopefully you have a good idea on what to expect if you ever find yourself here! Also, there are two couch type seating areas...one is directly in the front seating area, with a low wooden table, and the other is actually on a stage. Btw, the stage hosts musical acts every Thursday. Not sure if that would be worth a second trip or not.

I ordered a ham and cheddar croissant and a caramel cappuccino. The croissant was delicious, the cappuccino, not so much. In my personal preference I would order it with one or two extra espresso shots.
