Saturday mornings are incredibly busy, but the espresso drinks are worth it. Returned on a Monday afternoon and was a completely different vibe. Barista was chatty and relaxed, dining room was a lot quieter and more conducive for conversation.

Wheelchair accessibility: Sufficient space for a wheelchair to move around, but seating is picnic tables or bar stools, so transferring from a wheelchair may be difficult.

The girl who can't pick a hair color I believe did something to my drink. Had a drying effect on my throat. First a nasty attitude then a nice one to cover up what she did. I think cameras need to be watched. Will not be back. Would like a refund for the iced miel at this point.

Our first time trying their drinks and what a huge let down. Not only it’s expensive but the matcha didn’t taste like matcha, and the paschal drink just tasted like oat milk, our drinks were pretty bad. I mean if you want your drinks to taste more like milk, this is the place.

Don’t think we will be back anytime soon. The place is ok, it’s not my preferred aesthetic but others will enjoy it here.

We drove down from Minneapolis to check this shop out. We wanted to do the coffee flight. When we got there, while waiting in line we walked past all of the dirty dishes we saw that all of the flights had nearly full matchas. We are not big fans of matcha anyway and given that it didnt look popular we asked to sub it for something basic like a latte. She said no, which is fair. I understand they have internal policies. But we asked what else was good besides matcha so that we could order individual drinks and she said "well the Matcha is good, I guess this (other one) is good too." Disappointed in the customer service.

We ordered a flat white and one of the seasonal drinks and they were really delicious.

Wild Grind Coffee –
Aesthetic: 10/10
Coffee: A Crime Against Caffeine

Oh, Wild Grind Coffee, you had me at “coffee shop inside a brewery.” The vibe? 2010 hipster. The aesthetic? A Pinterest board. But the coffee? My sweet, unsuspecting taste buds have been through a betrayal they won’t soon forget.

I ordered a coffee flight to sample their winter seasonal offerings. Three little cups of what I hoped would be holiday magic. Instead, I got burnt espresso, weak flavoring, and a whole lot of disappointment. It was like someone whispered the idea of coffee into a cup of lukewarm water and charged me $14 for the privilege. Each sip was a fresh insult, a sad reminder that not all that glitters is gold, and not all pretty coffee shops serve good coffee.

Now, don’t get me wrong, if you’re here for the aesthetic, by all means, take your pictures, bring your dog, soak in the vibes, and pretend your latte tastes like something worth drinking. I’m sure the evening drinks are so much better. But if you’re looking for a solid, well-balanced, properly extracted espresso experience? Keep walking. Your taste buds deserve better.

Phone doesn't work. They have a pre-recorded message when you call telling you to email them instead

Tried the seasonal coffee flight with oat milk. They were all a little heavy in the milk side of the milk:flavor ratio. Otherwise, it was really nice to be able to grab a coffee in the afternoon while others had an opportunity to get a beer.

I live nearby and I'm here at least three times a week. The staff is friendly, coffee is excellent, signature bevs are creative and the bakery items are delicious. Lots of seating indoors and outdoors. It can get busy and noisy but generally a good spot to meet someone or get some work done. Signature drinks are a little pricey but yummy all the same. Favorites include the Miel, matcha latte, Cosmo and Wanda (strawberry matcha) drip coffee and americano

Overall, it’s a great space to work from, hang out, sit outside, etc. It has a really bright and welcoming atmosphere, with big garage doors that make it an open space. The baristas were really friendly and helpful. I went on a cool summer day and wasn’t expecting it to be open like that, so I was pretty bummed we couldn’t stay long because I was freezing sitting inside.

I tried the seasonal blueberry basil latte, which was too milky for me— I could barely taste the espresso. The syrup was great, it just tasted like more of a steamer than a latte. I also can’t justify paying $1 for alternative milks when the coffee is already $6+ and normally return to places that have that as a free option. My partner got the cosmo and Wanda which was super pretty!

Just visiting the area, was glad to find a coffee place that is off the beaten path and not a chain. Great open concept design, and has a brewery on site as well!
