Nestled In The Middle Of A Garden Center, This Tiny Wisconsin Cafe Is An Enchanting Day Trip Destination

Some of Wisconsin’s best restaurants can be found in some unexpected places. A Milwaukee-area landscape and garden center is home to a cafe that’s as tranquil as it is surprising. The cafe is called Blüm Coffee Garden and it’s a place that blossoms with flavor – here’s why you need to pay this special and unusual restaurant a visit.

Blum is located within Bluemel’s Garden & Landscape Center. It's a business that dates to the early 1950s when Bluemel’s Tree Service began as a small-scale nursery.

The business grew substantially over the years. Today it is an expansive retail garden center with an impressive selection of annuals, perennials, herbs, rose bushes, and other bedding plants.

When you’re exploring the vast selection, you might find yourself needing a little pick-me-up. You’re in luck.

A coffee shop called Blüm Coffee Garden has you well covered. The shop opened in 2019 in the heart of the garden center. It’s surrounded by plants and tranquility.

Blum has all of your favorite beverages, including carefully brewed coffee, fresh fruit smoothies, espresso ice cream shakes, chai tea lattes, and more. Enjoy a beverage in-house or take something to go!

If you’re hungry, you have plenty of delicious options, including locally sourced pastries, bagels, chocolates, and sweets. There are also some savory items like soups, salads, sandwiches, and quiches.

Blüm Coffee Garden is located just 20 minutes from the heart of downtown Milwaukee, so it’s an easy and quick option for a relaxing escape in the Milwaukee area.
