Crema's Take

EVP Coffee is a beloved Madison institution where the owner's passion for quality clearly shines through in every detail, from meticulously crafted espresso drinks to house-made pastries that regulars rave about. The spacious, art-filled space attracts everyone from serious coffee enthusiasts buying beans for home to laptop warriors settling in for hours, all welcomed by an unusually warm and attentive staff who've built real relationships with the community. Whether you're after a perfectly pulled shot, a thoughtful pour over, or a creamy matcha, this is the kind of neighborhood spot that earns fiercely loyal customers who keep coming back year after year.

Service was great, my girlfriend loved her coffee. I tend to like my coffee a bit on the sweeter side so I wasn’t a huge fan of the coffee but the baked goods were great!

This is easily one of my favorite cafes in Madison. I've been coming here for many many years and buy their beans for home. Tracy is an incredible owner and her cafes reflect her care and love for people, community and coffee. The spaces are what cafes should be - more talkers than laptoppers. Community bulletin board, good music that doesn't feel selected by an algorhythm, over stuffed chairs... etc. This is real OG cafe culture, and needs to be preserved FOREVER! I only have one complaint - I've avoided this location in the mornings due to a customer who brings a large dog every morning. I adore and love dogs and have multiple rescues at all times. I also have no problem with service dogs being in cafes. It's just this owner - he lets his dog wander up to other patrons on a long leash. I think it's rude, unhygenic and potentially dangerous. I've seen multiple people leave the section. It shouldn't be up to the patron to tell the owner they don't want a dog against their legs in a cafe. I repeat - I'm ok with service dogs, but they are in service to the person who own them, not to the other patrons. keep your dog to yourself or don't bring it at all.

This is my favorite spot in town! A nicely sized coffee shop with friendly staff and decent drinks and desserts selection (I do wish they had croissants…) Ample seating at all times, and great art and music!

I love this coffee shop for so many reasons. I’ll just make a list. delicious baked goods made by staff and consistently special. The people who work here are so friendly and kind. It’s amazing how much better your day starts when you interact with such lovely people. I have never had a negative interaction even during the very stressful pandemic. They have a keen sense, of humor and are life-loving. I like the way that there are regulators here and that there are often meetings of groups of people that happen every day It’s next to a lovely pet supply store and the library If you bring your dog, your dog cannot go in, but you can do a little field trip to the pets supply store next-door and then go for a lovely walk . There are some mid-century modern homes in the area and the fall colors are stunning. There’s a little gym as well if you want to get a workout There is street parking if the parking lot is full Some of these photos are from EVP Uni Row « Que malheureusement à de heure plus limité. »

With the nice weather and surroundings, I would recommend everyone to come and try mocha, latte, and matcha here. A lot of good and friendly staffs've worked there for a long time. There're free wifi access and good spot for reading.
