Forward Craft & Coffee is a solid go-to spot in Madison. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, with great reading nooks for those who enjoy settling in with a good book or catching up on work.The coffee is consistently good, and I appreciate their unique on-tap beer selection--it's a nice touch that sets them apart. It's also a great space for meetings, offering a comfortable yet functional layout.The staff is friendly and welcoming, which adds to the overall experience. My only gripe is the parking situation--it can be challenging to find a spot nearby, so street parking or walking is usually your best bet.Overall, a great place to visit, but the parking hassle. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area!

Love to come hangout and play board games! The cold brew flight is fun, even though I'm not a big cold brew lover, the flavors are enticing. They are a bit too sweet for my liking so I skip and go for a regular coffee - have had a decent latte here. Cocktails look yum but have yet to try!

Nice coffee and brew shop. Parking is a little sparse but neat place. Good wifi. Good beer.

Great coffee and cool vibes! You can get a coffee flight and beer flight all in one spot. We really enjoyed their seasonal coffee flavors and cold brews. This would be the perfect spot for a coffee date or happy hour, they have a nice selection of beers and plenty of seating. They host tap takeovers and some fun beer/coffee food pairing events. We will definitely be back soon!

I really love some aspects of this place. The space and ambiance are adorable and they have different types of seating depending on what you are looking for, smaller tables for solo working, big tables for hangouts or playing games (they have a nice selection) or trivia nights, couch by the fire for relaxing, etc. I also LOVE that they do both coffee and beer flights and that the beer changes regularly.You can bring your own food in since they don't have much other than a few breakfast pastries and not very good pizza, so plan ahead if you actually want to eat real food. Usually places like this allow dogs, but they don't. Their beer prices are just a little higher than the rest of the beer scene in Madison with most 5 oz pours at $5 each for low ABV beer. They usually have pretty strange beers which is great for me but not my partner who prefers basic ales and lagers. Also plan ahead for parking as it is difficult due to the location.Since they don't allow dogs and are a bit more expensive than other places we only go here if there's a special event or special beers we want to try out. If they changed their prices or dog policy or had food maybe we would come more often.

This is such a great place! We came on a Sunday morning to check out the new coffee/beer spot in the area and it has a really relaxed vibe.They have cold brew flights which is a fun twist to your traditional coffee spot. Plus you can grab other drinks like lattes and a whole French press of coffee for 4.We didn't try the beer but they have a number of IPAs and overall a wide selection! Something for everyone.I definitely recommend checking it out!!

I cannot contain my excitement about these new cold brew flights in town. Thank you Forward Craft & Coffee for making my cold brew dreams come true!! The cold brew flight did not disappoint! I can not remember the exact flavors but I know they were all delicious! I think there was an almond, vanilla, oakmilk..ya know...guess you have to go see for yourself! Also, all of the cold brews on draft right now are dairy free. The Baristas/ owners we're SO nice,the scones were && The have a side garage door window that's open on nice days!GET HERE and welcome these guys to the neighborhood- we're so excited to have you!!!

Good beer selection, nice servers and very clean. Just wish they had a better parking situation and served food other than sweets for breakfast.

best coffee i've ever had, no jokea friend brought me here to study for her finals and the coffee was jaw dropping, so good. i had the sweet and creamy cold brew and she the gingerbread, both were the best coffee i've tasted and the baked goods were delicious too; i had the chocolate orange scone. great aesthetics and it was so lovely to see so many people calmly enjoying the atmosphere and the servers were very patient with me and my first time ordering - 90s pop punk was a big plus too
