14 Best Coffee Shops in Mankato

“I want to extend my deepest gratitude to Lisa Coons, the incredible woman who helped shape me into the person I am today. Thank you, Coffee Hag, for being a beacon of inclusivity and community in Minnesota. Lisa and Patty’s dedication decades ago created an atmosphere that welcomed everyone, making it the most inclusive coffee shop in MN! To this day, the Coffee Hag serves the BEST white chocolate mocha I’ve ever had. I had the privilege of working at the Hag in the early 2000s for many years, and it remains a special place in my heart. I served Tim Walz several times. Let's all honor Lisa and Patty for their remarkable efforts and keep supporting this wonderful establishment!“

“The best coffee in southern Minnesota“

“asked my friend if they wanted a bagel. they said "no." I filled up with "I was thinking of making a tandem run." they lit up and said "oh! tandem?! I love tandem bagels!" so we ordered our bagels on-line and the only reason I had to wait was because I was early for our pickup time. we ❤️ tandem bagels!“

“Coffee was hot and ready the cinnamon bread had been warmed up (and tasted great, by-the-way) and the service was tremendous. They saw my little dog in the car and offered a "pup cup" - I didn't even know that was a thing. This location is easy off & on to HWY 22 in Mankato - my go to place as I go into or through Mankato.“

“Today was my first time at the Fillin' Station. I will 100% be coming back! The cold brew is made to order. Absolutely delicious. My husband got the Vanilla Bee coffee. It is the most unique delicious coffee I've ever tasted! Our son enjoyed a Choco Nut muffin that is made vegan! Major points as it was delicious. You would never know it was vegan made! Do yourself a favor and visit the Fillin' Station!“

“much love and comfort <3 the workers there were very helpful when explaining drinks to me, I was even allowed to smell the powdered drink mix they use so I know what a drink is like before I buy it. Very helpful and thoughtful <333“

“I never leave reviews but scooters deserves a five star review! My boyfriend and I have been coming here since they’ve opened and we absolutely love it! We don’t go anywhere else for coffee, it’s always good and the service is amazing :)“

“We had a very tasty lunch and then spent a good deal of time with the owner smelling her large collection of tea leaves. We ended up with about a half dozen to take home with us to the east coast, and look forward to coming back to restock in the future.“

“Really like this place - it’s the little things - the lid on the coffee cup is facing away from the little leaky seam, the chorizo burrito doesn’t leak as you are stuffing it in your face on the way to work, the coffee is always the same. Thanks!“

“Best and most unique ice cream shop in town, although I don't discriminate when it comes to ice cream and will eat it from almost anywhere-- Mom and Pop's is my favorite if I can make it there! I can (and have) go multiple times a week and not get sick of it. Also, the servers are always nice and just cool people.“

“I went in and got the Strawberry Cheesecake mega shake for additional protein based on Gus’s recommendation and it was DELICIOUS. I will definitely be making Mad Ave Nutrition a staple (great prices too!)“

“We got a maple latte and vanilla iced latte. I like the balanced taste. Not too sweet and not too strong. Also got a maple sausage sandwich and an everything bagel sandwich. The everything bagel sandwich is nice and spicy, so yummy. Friendly staff. I will be back.“

“Preordered online, and went in for pick up. Didn’t realize until then that they ran out of a lot of fruit teas and fruit drinks so we could only get strawberry fruit drinks. Beautiful indoor backdrop for pictures! Staff was knowledgeable and kind. If you want to order, only option is a kiosk but doesn’t seem like they can program when they are out of certain things.

Parking: Sitting across campus and other restaurants/eateries (Chipotle, Asian Wok, crumbl cookies), bank, and a liquor store, so it can grt busy!“

“Clean restaurant and very friendly people!“
