Love the co-op :)

This is such a gem for the riverwest neighborhood! It's small, but they make good use of the space and carry a lot of products. It's mostly volunteer-run, and do of friendly folks. Their to-go cooler has some awesome sandwiches and other yummy bites. They also recently added a hot food warmer, so you can pick up a warm breakfast sandwich, along with their delicious bakery options.

Here's to hoping they can get the cafe open for full service again!! Since closing post-COVID, they've slowly started cafe service again, doing brunches every Sunday.

Pros: Support local, Delicious food

Cons: Cafe hours :(

Amazing little co-op!

I’m just visiting MKE but, I got membership pricing thanks to Cream City Hostel’s “Local’s Card”. Great selection of local and V* products. Try the biscuits and gravy at the cafe for eight bucks!

Cute little shop!

Good variety for being so tiny. I love shopping while waiting for my food.

deserves 10 stars

I had a philly vegan cheese steak which was delicious and big. They are a coop which is cool. I think they even give food to needy people which is a big plus in my book.

One of Milwaukee's best kept secrets

Never mind the nice little health food store, this listing should under Restaurants, because inside that nice little health food store is a great, but even smaller, cafe. It only seats about 10 people, so much of it's business is carry-out. Tucked away in a residential neighborhood, the residents have a gold mine of great mostly vegan comfort food. Visiting from Detroit, my friend and I ate there 3 times in 3 days. Everything was the best. One of the rare times that I will give 5 cows to a restaurant that isn't 100% vegan.

Great neighborhood co-op

Don't drive here expecting a Whole Foods or Outpost, Riverwest is a very small, almost convenience store sized health food store. That being said, its still a wonderful place, where we were able to grab a few extra snacks for the road. They have a little bit of everything and a frozen section, too. You can do the tour in about 15 paces, but what they have is superb.

Pros: cosey neighborhood mart

Good Store, Nice People, and Fair Prices.

When I stopped at the Riverwest Co-op Café, I also picked up some snacks and a few other items at the Riverwest Co-op Grocery, which is the next room over. Anyway, they had a good snack and food selection [I had to check the whole store out ;)]. I felt that their prices were fair and that the people who work there were friendly and helpful, as I talked to them about Vegan things. I wish there was a place like this by my house!
