Esperanza Coffee Collective

So many reasons I love this coffee shop! Delicious drinks, fantastic people, a great vibe, a cool/funky location, and a great local business/gem of Uptown Racine (*a tip for the uninitiated: knowing where to turn off of Washington Ave is very helpful, as there are some one-way streets. The parking lot is behind the building and can be accessed from Ann St. or Owen Ave. If you are going thru the drive-thru be sure to turn on Owen St. (west of The Branch at 1501/Esperanza). See map in photos • Delicious Drinks! Our go-to’s are: almond milk and lavender lattés, cold brew with frosted mint and a splash of cream, raspberry lemonade, Jamaica Agua Fresca and Maui Wowie (we’ve tried many other of their concoctions as well, and not been disappointed) and Pup Cups worth working for!! This is our do

SO good! Just ordered the horchata iced latte and it is amazing. I love that they are family farmed and the community feel they bring to the neighborhood. There is a unique taste to this coffee you won’t find in most places and it’s so worth it! Prices are fair and staff is very friendly.

Fantastic little coffee shop!! Excellent ice chai lattes. Great atmosphere. They even had a DJ and some pop up shops that’s morning. Perfect pit stop on your way to the SC Johnson tour.

This place is such a vibe. Great coffee drinks, good WiFi, super quiet inside. Perfect place to read or get some work done in a really nice aesthetic environment. And the back outside seating area is fantastic. I wish I had discovered it sooner.

I absolutely love this place! Amazing coffee, delicious treats, and the kindest staff. Super look forward to their question of the day each time I go. Seriously, swing by - you won’t regret it!
