EVP Coffee
1250 E Washington Ave, Madison, WI
Crema's Take
“EVP Coffee on Madison's east side is a no-frills gem with serious espresso chops and a wonderfully lived-in 90s vibe that feels like settling into a friend's living room. Their in-house roasted beans shine through in meticulously crafted pour overs and pull shots that consistently rival European standards, while the laid-back crew and cozy-yet-airy space make it equally perfect for lingering with a laptop or catching up over a perfectly made café au lait. It's the kind of place where self-service milk and sugar on the table and a nearby parking lot signal they've thought through the details without any pretense.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program, matcha and tea options too. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu. Parking available.
