I have come to this shopping center several times on my way to Joe Overstreet’s (for wildlife photography) and never noticed this place, today, thanks to Yelp I found it, Kali made a delicious cappuccino and suggested the three meat sandwich, everything was delightful. The ambience of this place it very modern and layback, a few people talking softly, others in their laptops or phones but all and all super quiet, clean and relaxing.
Next time in the area I’ll make sure to pay a visit to Kali (the youngster behind the counter…!

Amazing place and atmosphere, and honedtly the food is really good!
Good place for brunch
First time at the St Cloud branch.
Gave 5 stars for the food, service and ambience. But just 2 stars in general.
There is no pastries over here in Dt Cloud and that's why we stopped by (brunch time) and google was showing the pantrie's pics for this store.
The guava french toast is yummy but for $15 you get into top pastries in town for 2 person.
Espresso is great, tastes great.
A couple may expect to spend $50 easily on a quick breakfast, great food but not justifiable.
Good coffee
It is difficult to write reviews that are less than favorable because I am fully aware of the challenges that small business owners face in order to keep things afloat. Vanessa's coffee shop offers a very serene environment with great food that is not mass produced. So what made my experience less than favorable? 1) no prices on the menu. I was forced to use a QR code in order to see the prices. This is annoying to me but at least I know how to do it, but I know for a fact that anyone my senior in my family would have walked away. I believe that establishments should not make the assumption that customers have a smart phone (or if they do, that they know how to use it). 2) The second item of discontent has to do with all the little add-ons that are charged additionally. For example: the St. Cloud sandwich could be ordered with your choice of meat: Ham, bacon, turkey, or sausage; however, if turkey is chosen, there's an up-charge ($1.25) which once again is not evident on the paper menu. Then there's the issue of the 3.5% credit card surcharge which is perfectly legal but once again by this point I'm already annoyed by the turkey surcharge. Then the grand finale was a 5% service charge which apparently isn't optional (I asked). I would gladly pay it if the order would have been taken at the table and the food delivered, but since I ordered standing at the register and then had to go get the food myself at the counter, what service is it exactly that I am paying 5% for? (and you obviously must take the dirty dishes to the area by the doors and place them on top of the trash bins) So now we have a 3.5% surcharge for using the credit card (I would have paid cash had I known) plus a 5% service charge (not optional) plus the 7.5% sales tax for a total of 16% and this isn't Europe. I want to reiterate that I support local businesses and that I can see things from the business owner's perspective, I know it is difficult to compete with giants such as Starbucks with corporate deep pockets, reason why I chose to come here today. I am taking the time to express my concerns hoping that this will help. It is about the overall experience, by the time I got the food I was already annoyed by all the little surprises described above, and that is not good for business.

I’ve come here a couple of times and their coffee is amazing! The portion of food is out of this world for the price, comparing it to other spots. The only comment I’ll make is that sometimes they forget to stir the syrup in the coffee and the caramel or mocha gets stuck to the bottom and that’s a little unpleasant but hope that won’t happen anymore, keep being great!
amazinggggg!!
This is a beautiful little coffee shop, food was nice however I paid $50 for two simple breakfast entrees and two lattes. They upcharged every single thing. Requested half and half for my coffee and was charged $1. Requested vanilla flavor and was charged an additional $1.50. The upcharge for adding onions and peppers was $2.50. The most outrageous was the upcharge from requesting wheat toast instead of white which was $2.50! Just insane. I understand the economy isn’t great and things are expensive, but people are struggling and this kind of upcharging culture in a Christian business makes no sense to me. I honestly won’t be back. An 8oz coffee with vanilla should never cost $8.50.
Enjoyed a lovely Cinnamon Roll Latte w oatmilk. It was perfectly strong and sweet.
Very relaxing environment to start your morning. The restaurant was very clean and had a good layout. We were immediately greeted by a friendly staff member who explained the ordering process. Our coffees were exactly what you expect and hope for from a higher end coffee shop. Then our food came out, a Cuban and a steak salad. Both meals were incredibly good with tons of flavor and good portion size. We left full, not stuffed, and completely happy with our lunch choice. We will definitely be coming back for more.
