Ambassador Hotel’s Pleasant Caffé Deco
Short Orders
Few places equal the Ambassador Hotel (2308 W. Wisconsin Ave.) when it comes to
Art Deco splendor. The Ambassador reopened in 2005 with painstakingly restored
lobbies and a fine restaurant, Envoy. The hotel also houses the appropriately
named Caffé Deco, where guests and locals relax in the morning. Caffé Deco
offers an assortment of caffeinated drinks and light food items—think Danish
pastries and muffins for the morning and panini, soups and salads for lunch.
There are a few TVs with the volume turned off and some computers with
complimentary Internet access. A curved ramp leads to additional tables at this
pleasant morning spot. And big windows help to make it sunny, even in winter.



I've always been a fan of Art Deco, way to go Ambassador. A really strong point is Envoy, I can not understand why it has not drawn the positive attentionit deserves. The big windows are an excellent essense, 5 stars for that! We did the same to our renovated family hotel and the natural light is just so replenishing!
