Coffee Shops near Big Lake

“Coffee is so good and the atmosphere is so cute and cozy! Worth the stray from your normal Caribou/Starbucks drink. 🖤“

“Visited my local Caribou yesterday to pick up a Thank You gift card. Superstar, Owen; my favorite employee rang me up. Go in and chat with him. He is a wonderful young man! 🤩“

“Our order is wrong 70% of the time... no, I don't complain it does no good. The prices are totally outrageous... especially when the quantity of the food, French fries, hamburgers thinner, then a cardboard box. Not employees faults. They're very fast & try to be “

“Such a cute place! Loved the menu, food/drinks were delicious! I will definitely be back!“

“In coffee shops where dawn breaks slow,
A furry form with skill does glow,
Caribou baristas, strong and bright,
Craft lattes with antler-tipped delight.

Their hooves, a staccato beat on floor,
As they concoct brews galore,
With eyes that shine like northern lights,
They pour their hearts into morning's first delights.

Their fur, a softness to behold,
In hues of brown, like coffee's gold,
As they froth milk with gentle care,
And sprinkle cinnamon with flair.

Oh, caribou baristas, noble and true,
Your passion for coffee, we hold anew,
In every cup, a story's told,
Of wilderness and warmth, young and old.

May your antlers forever grow,
And your coffee beans, always be in tow,
For in the morning's earliest light,
You bring joy to our busy sight.“

“Grace was so wonderful in the drive through! The customer in front CLEARLY needed their coffee and started driving away without it! Grace was well graceful in helping the customer out while being friendly! And they separated the lemon loaf from the hot sandwich“

“Best donuts and coffee!! Super friendly staff - every time!“

“Absolutely love this coffee shop! Has a very comfortable setting and beautiful patio! Didnt think I would say this but the Dr.'ed up coffee drink is the best! If you haven't tried I would recommend! Very refreshing! Little of a wait but well worth it!“

“I love all the people that work here! All do a fantastic job and are so friendly! The best location around. I’ve gone to other caribous in the area and they have messed up my orders multiple times… so I pretty much only go to this location!“

“The coffee shop was very clean and had a warm welcoming vibe. The bathrooms could’ve used a restock, it was 8am, so it was a little surprising to see toilet paper empty.

The staff were friendly and helpful, but unsure about the products (like sizes)

I ordered a caramel cold press, this was a first for me. It was very smooth and creamy, but lacked the caramel flavor. I also ordered the waffle sandwich, the actual waffle was a bit dry but overall great flavor and a perfect small bite.

My husband ordered the campfire blended, he ordered the XL and regretted it with how big it was, but said it was really good and not overly sweet but not a lot of coffee flavor.

Plenty of seating both inside and out.“

“Great service, very friendly people. Didn’t feel rushed and answered all our questions. Smoothies and coffee were delicious and the food is far and away better than any other coffee place I have been to. Definitely recommend!“

“I did a mobile order with an ASAP timing. As soon as I got there, my drink and sandwich were done! My sandwich was hot and cooked perfectly, and my drink was made very well with all the specifications I had put on there! This is my favorite location in the Saint Michael area!“

“This place, specifically Jess, always makes my drinks superb. The atmosphere is blacked and busy for a reason, they know how to bring people back for more. My only complaint is when you go in towards close the workers stand around and talk instead of helping you which i get being young but when there people in line, maybe don’t do that.

Dietary restrictions: I have to have 0 caffeine and they always make me decaf drinks that taste like coffee but aren’t going to make me sick. Everywhere else refuses and offers me “cream based” which i do not want.“

“I just wanted you to know that we had the best experience due to your amazing employee Blake. In the last month Blake has served us twice. Both times your employee was outstanding with customer service! Any employer would be happy to have Blake working for them. Thanks for hiring a great employee that could present some choices and make my kids & I laugh. Blake has an amazing personality and makes us want to come to your store again!!! Thank you 😊“

“I’ve had a great experience every time I’ve visited! The staff is always incredibly friendly, and the space is spotless. They’re super helpful—especially if you’re not sure exactly what you want—and they go above and beyond to customize everything to your needs. Highly recommend!!“
