What a positively lovely space and place to get a delicious coffee 😊 Biking over on a sunny Sunday morning in November, my first visit here left a dazzling impression. The baristas were very warmly welcoming and friendly. The atmosphere was buzzing! Laughter, conversation. It was on the louder side on a Sunday morning so keep that in mind if you’re looking for someplace more subdued. There was a bit of a line but it moved quick. I got a light roast, black, and it was super savory if you can call it that—very drinkable, smooth, round with a ever-so-slight lean into the sourness of acidity, which I like. I wonder if it was their own brand of bean, which they carry. Overall, energizing vibes with the warm-colored walls, dark green mosaic tile, and vibrant Uptown clientele. I can’t wait to be back to try more of the menu and absorb the vibes here, whether it’s while working, meeting a friend, or just hanging out. I’m so glad to have them here in Uptown. Thank you Mosaic! I’m gonna be biking this way more!

Impressive -old school coffee cafe. Saw actual familiarity and quick conversations from counter person and regular customers. Haven’t seen that forever.

Some of the best coffee I've had in a while! I love that the alternative milk is the same price 😊 the staff was very kind as well.

My wife and I stop in weekly if not multiple times a week and it always is a great experience. They help me drive what I want, but they aren’t mind readers, so if you come in with no idea, they do the best they can to help you find a drink of your choice, but they aren’t mind readers. Always happy to stop in

It’s my go to coffee spot, not just in Uptown but Minneapolis. Don’t think it’ll be long before this is on coffee drinkers short list of best spots in town.

A lovely little uptown cafe with lots of tables and outlets for working, if that's what you are looking for! Some light music and background noise, but overall a very calm and welcoming environment. They are also pet friendly so long as the dog is not reactive, which is lovely!

It’s been a long time since I’ve been to uptown so I was excited to be on a date with my partner exploring. Happen to come across this very cute cafe which really I don’t drink a lot of coffee and neither does my partner, but we were heading to the car and I wanted to grab a quick soda. My lovely partner asked for a cold coffee with caramel. So often when I’m not sure what to order or know she doesn’t either. I inquire suggestions from my barista, server, chef, etc because who knows better. I also approached my server with friendliness, I am at fault for the fact that I can be a very anxious shopper. My server was more than irritated with me for even thinking I should be asking her any questions and should just know what I want. I’ve never actually had a person in the customer service industry be so obviously condescending to me , even to telling me she’s not a mind reader.
Then I look to the different colored cans that I thought were sodas, for myself, and asked what they were since EVERY single one was turned the other direction in glass so I could not see any sort of label. Nor a sign with options, I definitely looked so not to receive the wrath of my server. Her response : ā€œteaā€
I’m perplexed am I out of line for asking??? Maybe I have it all wrong and she’s believes everyone has super powers except her.
Me: what kind? Flavors?

And so this goes on. By the end of this I order nothing at all. Waste my time.

In my mind I felt like I did something horrible to offend this person, it’s been a long time since I even allowed myself to think it may have been color of my skin since everyone else the place had taken there order with her and seemed happy.
But I think I’d rather believe she’s just rude to anyone that comes in that queries.

But in the end I thank her for bringing me and Gabby together next door at the Moona Moono who was more than helpful guiding me with best recommendations on boba tea I’ve never had before. If it wasn’t for this poor experience I would never had received the experience I had just next door. I even got the Boone of my partner finding ā€œthe best coffeeā€ she’s ever had. (Maple latte)

I don’t think miserable people should be order taking. Especially when often time their teams split tips.

Went to go grab coffee. I am not much of a coffee drinker so I didn’t know what to get. Instead of a recommendation, we were told by the lady taking our order, ā€œI’m not a mind readerā€ā€¦ after we stated the things we DID like in coffee…
What kind of service is that?
So we went next door to Moona Moono and got greeted kindly, and told the barista what we DID like in coffee and boba and she gave us amazing recommendations. She suggested the maple latte and it was amazing! (Photo shown is the maple latte from Moona Moono).

I got the banana bread latte and the pumpkin pie latte. Both were GREAT! But the person behind the register was also very kind and funny. I guess we'll have to make the drive from Hopkins more often!

Since moving to uptown about 2 years ago, I’ve been on the hunt for the best vanilla latte in the area. I’ve tried dozens of places and measure the latte on taste, sizing, price, and drink-to-ice ratio. This cafe takes 1st for me. It is absolutely the best vanilla latte I have had in uptown, and I’ve been here a few times so it wasn’t just a one-time experience! The latte is extremely reasonably priced and sized, it’s never too sweet, and it is super delicious. The staff here are SO sweet, AND the cafe is right next to my favorite bookstore!! The first time I went, someone even stopped me on the street to ask where I got my coffee. It’s that good ā¤ļø
