The place isn't terrible for coffee if you need a place to study in, but it's overpriced and mid-quality coffee. Also, the sitting areas for tables in the coffee shop area is tight, a bunch of people sat at the main table behind me and they had to get up to let me out.Parking isn't that great. It's overall just another mid coffee shop with a wine bar attached (that is very loud).Parking: Cramped street parking on a busy road.Kid-friendliness: The coffee area might be a bit better but still wouldn't bring a kid here.Wheelchair accessibility: tight quarters, would not recommend for those that need wheel-chair access.

The coffee and the cookies were excellent, but the staff behaved quite strangely.I sat with a new friend chatting there for about 4 hours, and 2 hours before the place closed, a staff person started putting the chairs on the tables and sweeping. She even asked us to move so she could sweep under us! That was a first for me.Also, she and the other barista, made so much extremely loud and jarring noise with dishes and by emptying the espresso maker, that several patrons jumped each time. It was almost comical how loud and frequent the noise was. It was literally shocking. We watched at least two groups of people sit briefly and then leave after being so put off by the banging of metal on metal and dishes crashing together. It was incredibly unpleasant!

Visiting Minneapolis, and found this place close to our Airbnb. Their salty dog was amazing. Dark chocolate, caramel and salt. Not powerfully sweet- think slightly veering to a savory hot cocoa. I usually stick to a vanilla latte as any specialty drink is too sweet, but this was just right. The service was great, and the atmosphere is super peaceful and chill.

This place is such a cozy spot to curl up with a book or some work you might have. The baristas have always been so incredibly welcoming and kind when I have visited. They handcraft your drinks, so keep in mind if you’re looking for a quick cup, and not something carefully crafted, a drive thru might better suit your needs. I love this spot and am already looking forward to my next visit.

I ended up at Sisters' Sludge on a Saturday evening around 6ish with a few friends. It wasn't too busy and we were able to claim the two sofas by the faux fireplace on the bar side. It was a comfy spot! The woman pouring wine was funny and made light jokes, which I enjoyed! Sisters Sludge has a nice selection of wines and me and my companions all enjoyed the wines we chose. I didn't check out the coffee side but will definitely come back to try that out!

Nice neighborhood coffee shop. Good coffee and sandwiches, lots of seating. Friendly staff, and a great place to spend an hour chatting with friends. Parking is mostly on street.
Best hot coco I’ve ever had! Spent 3 hours there pitching a graphic novel to a college friend and it felt like something out of a movie. Fantastic vibes
