Coffee Shops near Columbia Heights

“Best apple chai EVER! Cold day comforts.“

“Great restaurant! Booked it in as a last minute birthday celebration. Had the avocado toast & added poached eggs on top. Loved the tent seating as I felt warm especially with Minnesota weather. Also ordered myself an iced latte, which was great. My sister had the seasonal French toast & loved them! Definitely recommend this as a quick, affordable brunch spot.“

“Great coffee and atmosphere.“

“Stopped in for a late lunch on the patio. Was interested in a bitters & soda and the server recommended mixing the rhubarb and cardamom, which was delicious and refreshing. Followed that with the Chix Correa sandwich and a side salad. Wow! Really creative flavors and well-executed. Could tell everything was made from scratch and with high quality ingredients and care. Also the decor was fun and hip, the music top-notch, and the staff kind. I look forward to coming back soon!“

“Nice atmosphere! I don't drink coffee, but I enjoyed their chai latte and they had a bunch of delicious looking pastry options. Also love that the profits support youth futsal programs!“

“Found this little gem this morning with a friend and I think it’s my new go-to coffee shop with other moms when we have to bring our kiddos! As a mom of a toddler, it can be really hard to expect my son to stay sitting while I try to enjoy a coffee with a friend but this place has incredible coffee and food, incredible customer service, and an amazing play area to let the kiddos roam while you enjoy time with a friend!! Absolutely will be returning!“

“Great coffee place! What makes this place special is the owners providing a separate building for AA meetings that run from dusk to dawn. Now that is Good Karma!“

“I couldn’t love this place more!!! Great atmosphere, meeting room, and a large “kid room” with comfy furniture, toys and books so your kids can play while you enjoy a coffee date with friends! Best of all is their support for addiction recovery. A fabulous coffee shop that gives back to the community! ❤️❤️❤️“

“They have wonderful chai, a good breakfast and very chill vibes. Great little coffee shop!“

“My absolute go to for coffee in the twin cities. So many reasons to support this business!“

“Great service, really good food, and the drinks were my favorite part!“

“I love this place!!! The service is amazing, the staff is happy, the pastries are to die for, and the coffee is absolutely fabulous!!! I've had quite a few of Luminarys specialty coffee drinks and all have been exquisite. Today, I noticed a new iced peanut butter chocolate coffee beverage, and had to give it a try. I was pretty sure this wasn't going to be my favorite drink and I was so so wrong. I'm amazed once again and the iced peanut butter chocolate coffee mix might be my new fave!!! 😋 ❤️🤟“

“Always love stopping by mudslinger's while out running errands. The only downside is that the line can get long in the mornings, especially on weekends. Despite this, they work quickly and I love supporting a small local business!

Kid-friendliness: They have a kids cocoa“

“I love this spot — bikeable from my house and with a bike-friendly owner. Right off the Green Line. African tea, good cookies and other treats. A favorite for meetings or just hanging out alone.“

“This place is my idea of perfection! Great coffee and beautifully laid out antique shopping. The owners vision was a huge success. Thank you for providing such a fun, welcoming space for everyone to enjoy! 💛“

“Good coffee. Great mission.“

“I love the Med. Cruise, and when the family branched out, they hit another home run with Baba's etc. The food here is amazing! 🥰“

“I am so glad this is not near my house, it is dangerously delicious, this place is amazing, from smoothie bowls to crapes, cofee to pastries, atmosphere is amazing, wether you sit inside or enjoy the beautiful MN weather.

Vegetarian options: They can basically customize the crepes and anything on the menu“

“I always gravitate to a locally owned shop and this was a great choice. Cool little space, great service and, lest we forget, Great Coffee. They know what they're doing:) Starbucks and Caribou will be just fine without You and I, go here instead.“

“Came in 5 minutes before close (didn't realize!) And she graciously still took my order. I tried the pumpkin/crema mixed Gelato and it was so good and super cute that I had to leave a review! My iced vanilla latte with oat milk was also very good! I will be back soon!“

“Pilllar is an amazing coffee house and venue in NE Mpls. The staff are on point, they treat people and artist well, and it’s a safe and welcoming place for all non-turds. Coffee and THC drinks. What more could I ask for?“

“Great coffee! For me, she knows to put a little ice to cool it down a bit.“

“Great coffee! Best coffee prices around. Always great, friendly and fast service! Local owned family business. Can’t recommend them enough. Go check them out and you won’t be disappointed!“

“Misfit is the absolute best!!!!“

“Amazing drinks! Beautiful space“

“Great little coffee shop! Excellent customer service! We had chai tea latte, a smoothie and pepperoni frybread pizza. All were so delicious!! Migwiich!“

“Just brewed a cup (pour over) of your organic Guatemalan and it is so smooth and delicious. Thanks for a great roast!“

“I’m a huge fan of this coffee shoppe. The culture of friendship, hospitality, and delicious coffee is astounding. I’m here every day!“

“Best coffee this side of the Mississippi.“

“Beautiful spot. I spent the afternoon studying here and it quickly became one of my favorites spots. The inside is minimalistic with brutalist and industrial inspiration. The space is extremely clean and well kept. There are numerous outlets under the seats which are relatively comfortable and wooden. The tables might be my only complaint as they are quite small.. but adequate for most things. They play numerous records which Is quite unique and cool. The menu is small but all the items I tried were great. The pumpkin latte was recommended to me and was perfect and not too sweet. The entrance is located adjacent to the street in a small alley. They have one small gender neutral bathroom. Staff are kind and knowledgeable. I did not see a drinking fountain. Overall great spot!“

“Great neighborhood vibes and great neighbors. Drinks are top-notch, snacks are creative, staff is wonderful. Glad to have them be so nearby.“

“I've gone here twice now, and their coffee is amazing. I love the personality in the shop, and in the one employee I've seen so far. They sell delicious gluten free pastries and even plants, as well as sandwiches and waffles (which i haven't tried). I am blessed to have found this place and will continue to go. They don't have parking, unfortunately. You park on the street, which sometimes leaves you walking a few minutes.

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free pastries (possibly exclusively?)“

“It’s the first time. Nice place. Good coffee. Friendly staffs 🥰“

“Best coffee in mpls! 💓💓💓💓“

“They make a delicious latte!“

“Some great beers to choose from.“

“The service here is quick. I was in and out with my order in less than five minutes, and I was not the only one in the cafe. I got the chaider which was tasty and heavier on the spice than most others I have tried. The blueberry and raspberry hand pie was tart and flaky, just right. I wish I had asked for it heated up because I think that would have made it even better. There are pieces of art around that are interesting, and I think make this a funky place to grab a coffee and relax.“

“These people do not belong in customer service. Worry about your drink being contaminated and staff are hostile toward customers. Disgusting. Oh and ownership will not refund or respond. They will steal your money and charge you for two drinks at the price of one then play the victim.“

“Breakfast sandwich is fire. And the burrito is to die for. The beet Reuben is a fantastic veggie choice too. I'm in the neighborhood and I go here at least twice a week. Run, don't walk.

Vegetarian options: Beet Reuben is delicious“

“Coffee is amazing ❤️ and customer service is lovely 😊“

“I almost want to gate keep this shop - that’s how much I love it. The warmest service! Everytime I’ve went they have provided me with kind, genuine recommendations and explainations. They have unique lattes such as one with beetroot powder and even one protein. I haven’t seen options at other spots. I feel like I need protein in every coffee I have going forward. I didn’t feel jittery at all like I normally do. Life changing experience for real! They have special made empanadas by Boludo too, which are incredible. Other pastries I’ve seen in the case come from RMY patisserie. It’s not the biggest shop, but I’m so glad they are here.“

“Amazing coffee and very cool vibe!“

“Grab A Quick cup of Decentable of coffee“

“Fell in love with this coffee! We order twice a month now, no other coffee will do!“

“I looooveee this cafe!!! The staff are absolutely incredible and create the best experience! Special shoutout to Andrew and Zach for being so nice and welcoming! I love coming here and chilling out in their lobby. They have a tonnn of seating, but it still gets super busy and filled up! The only thing that I don't like is how busy this place is, but it makes sense given how great every aspect of it is!!! Super lovely vibes and the drinks are even better. There's a ton of options on their menu for you to choose from and if you have any questions, the staff is super helpful with accommodations! I love their apple cider and I wish they had it 24/7! Super delicious. They also have a ton of parking which is great because Minneapolis is known for being difficult with that. I absolutely love the vibes of this place and definitely will be coming back all the time.“

“They’re the best! Love that Oat milk is the default (though they have regular dairy and plenty of others too!)“

“The staff were so incredibly helpful with recommendations and letting me try samples. I'd highly recommend checking this place out, the selection was fantastic.“

“Duet is in the lobby of the Daymark. Service was pretty fast and very nice! Coffee was decently mid though, the maple cinnamon latte just tasted like a latte. There’s not much nearby, but it’s definitely a nice convenient coffee spot if you live in the daymark. They do have lots of options!“

“Delicious food, amazing service and atmosphere! I’ve been twice in the last month already 😁🤭 Side note: their menu has pork notations! Which is super helpful as I don’t eat pork“
