Amazing little coffee shop. My wife is super particular with her coffee, and this is her absolute favorite place to go. The breakfast sandwiches are good, too. Super friendly staff. Don’t think we’ve ever had any issues with our orders after probably 50+ visits. 6/5 stars if I could

The Filling Station, for me, has been one of the most important community spaces in Mankato since moving here about 3 years ago.
The atmosphere is cozy and has currently been updated to include a fun water feature- the staff are friendly relatable locals who care about what they are doing and it shows.
They have great NA/AA meetings, which is what first had me going in regularly. They also support local artists, especially if it’s your first showing- an incredibly valuable opportunity for people like me.

Respect your neighbors and stop being so greedy. This place should be last on everyone's list for coffee places in Mankato.

We stopped here while traveling from out-of-state. We ordered two lattes and a Front Street breakfast sandwich. Everything was wonderful! The atmosphere is unique and welcoming. It’s not just a coffee shop, it’s an experience! This is a place you definitely want to visit!

Fillin’ Station is such a great place to meet to hang out, have a meeting or consultation, and get a latte or tea:) I would definitely recommend going!

They have the best coffee flights! Always so creative. Keep it up!
The sandwiches are pretty good, not worth almost $10 though that’s for sure. The espresso is mediocre. You can’t order their seasonal drinks by themselves, if you want a seasonal drink, you have to sit in the small cramped shop and order a whole flight of coffees. Genuinely the stupidest thing I’ve seen in a long time, they have all the ingredients for the coffee but won’t make it because why? The workers have always been super nice but they’re so understaffed that they ALWAYS look so stressed, like i’ve been trying to like this place for years and they’ve always been understaffed. They make all the sandwiches to order it looks like and 80% of the time they only staff two people so they’re forced to be stressed. Also they charge you for to go containers that fall apart, like you have to pay extra to take your food to go and the containers aren’t even worth the extra money you pay for them. This place cracks me up. Two stars instead of one only because the workers are nice and the garlic aioli.

Enjoyed a nice light lunch here. The BLT was just enough to keep you going through your day. The latte flight was a nice idea but I only really enjoyed one out of the four flavors. Would come back next time I'm in town.

Quiet place with good food and coffee. WC accessible. Group friendly. Comfortable chairs to relax, drink coffee, and read.

I specifically went to this coffee shop because they have Red Bull infusions, and it was a huge let down. When I walked in, the menu said the Red Bull infusion would be $5.39, then it rang up as $6.95, and then they charged me an extra $.50 because I got it in a plastic cup to-go. The drink that they said would only be $5.39 turned out to be over $8. The Red Bull infusion itself also wasn’t that good, I will probably not get another drink from this shop again.
