MOKA
711 State St, Madison, WI
Crema's Take
“MOKA strikes that rare balance between a quick caffeine stop and a genuine hangout spot, with genuinely kind staff who remember regulars and nail consistency on everything from classic lattes to their beloved signature Oreo shake. The spacious setup—both indoors and out with reliable wifi—makes it equally welcoming whether you're ducking in for five minutes or settling in for hours, and families especially appreciate the thoughtful touches like kid smoothies at just three dollars. What keeps people coming back to Madison specifically for this place is that intangible warmth: the staff actually cares, the drinks are solid, and the whole vibe feels like a neighborhood gathering spot that actually delivers on its promise.”

Moka is, without a doubt, the most amazing place on Earth. I always make a point to come back to Madison just for it. Every single time, the experience is flawless. The employees are incredible—friendly, efficient, and fast. No matter how busy it gets, they always make you feel welcome and ensure your drink is perfect. And speaking of drinks, mine always tastes amazing. Consistently, without fail. The breakfast burritos are another reason I keep coming back—they’re delicious, filling, and never disappoint. Honestly, in three years of visiting, I’ve never had a bad experience. Moka isn’t just a coffee shop; it’s a reliable, joyful, top-tier experience. If you love coffee, great food, and outstanding service, this is hands down the best coffee shop ever.- Love your consistent and awesome customer Erik
love this place always nice for a quick coffee pit stop but personally i LOVE the oreo shake, it's been my favorite for so many years and i will continue to get it
The wife loves a latte, and this place present and pleasant atmosphere, no wait and easy to access. She was a fan! Both indoor and outdoor seating space, free Wi-Fi and decently priced coffee! All adds up to the perfect place whether you're looking for a quick stop or a place to sit down, this place is quick.
We visited this coffee shop while we were in town for swim meet. We had oat milk latte and kid strawberry banana smoothie, and sausage breakfast burrito. Drinks were great and kid’s drinks are only $3! And their breakfast burrito was the best breakfast burrito that we’ve ever had! Great service and I recommend this place to anyone looking for a great experience!
The people that work at this location deserve five stars at least — they're really quick, pleasant, and they make consistent drinks! I took a star off for corporate policy because *come on guys* — it's 2023 and I can't add a tip to my credit card purchase? Every other coffee shop manages to do this. Makes me worry all the good people will quit. GET WITH IT, MOKA.
