Tempest Coffee Collective
181 S Riverheath Way, Appleton, WI
Crema's Take
“Tempest Coffee Collective is a riverside retreat where espresso craftsmanship meets creative indulgence, earning consistent praise for exceptional Americanos and signature drinks like their lavender-infused iced matcha latte. The shop thrives as a slow-paced gathering spot with a serene, almost otherworldly atmosphere that's perfect for settling in with your laptop and their standout avocado toast, though you'll want to arrive with patience and time to spare since quality clearly trumps speed here.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks, matcha and tea options too. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Wifi.

I ordered a mango smoothie and the smoked salmon on an everything bagel. The barista was really nice and the owner Gail was so kind and helpful during ordering. The smoked salmon bagel was amazing. I will definitely be coming back for lunch. All the food leaving the kitchen…

I visit a lot of coffee shops in Wisconsin and surrounding states and always get an Americano. Today was my first time at Tempest and I can tell you that it was one of the best coffees I have had in quite some time. Keep up the good work.
This has become one of my favorite coffee shops! I love taking my laptop with and working here for a few hours. The avocado toast is THE BEST I’ve ever had, and their iced matcha latte with lavender is my go-to drink order.
