Housed in the old Milwaukee River Flushing Station, Alterra’s rehab of this historic building near Lake Michigan opened in 2002. The interior features the natural, open feel of all Alterra’s cafés, with the added bonus of distinct rooms and an eco–friendly bent. Outside, the huge outdoor patio is perfect for enjoying a sunny day. Offering the usual array of coffee shop drinks and sweets, as well as salads to sandwiches, the simple but suitable food menu means is good for a quick lunch. Everyone from East Side locals to thirsty Oak Leaf Trail bikers to lunching North Shore stay–at–home moms heads here when the weather is nice, so be prepared to wait in line.
