“Great place and great employees!“

“a big thank you to the employees and patrons at the Mtka Panera today I had an incendent and they were all so helpful. I am fine, my pacemaker kept me going. I needed to get some food in me and passed out for a minute while ordering. Everyone was so helpful. Thanks 👍“

“What an amazing staple to the Hopkins community. Mocha and pumpkin butter coffee are a must try. This place support local artists and business as well. prices are more better than most corporations so choose to shop small and support this local Hopkins jem.“

“First time, even though we drive by on the daily. New to the area as well. Amazing customer service and drinks were great as well! Found out they serve sandwiches as well. Will definitely be back!!!“

“Lovely atmosphere and great food!“

“Ate dinner here on recommendation of a friend. Great food, served fresh, hot and fast. Had the spaghetti and garlic toast special. Was delicious. Huge serving also. Hubby had the grilled ham and cheese and subbed onion rings for the chips. Another winner. Had strawberry rhubarb pie for dessert- was really good and hit the spot. Laura was our waitress, attentive and friendly. Will be back!“

“My husband and I are in Deephaven for two weeks watching our grands and our son told us we needed to go out to breakfast at Beanhaven. He said “it’s like a little hometown cafe” so today after getting the grands off to school we did. Wow, such a cute place, delicious food and coffee and a delightful server. I had the sausage mushroom quiche with Jim’s potatoes, my husband had eggs, bacon, Jim’s potatoes and toast. Omg every thing was amazing. We will definitely be back when we’re here from Iowa 😋😋😋“

“I love Patrick's - I've been there so many times! Their lunch is always on point, with some of the most delicious sandwiches I've ever had. The pastries are incredible - always fresh, with perfect texture. I think their macarons are the best I've had anywhere in the Twin Cities.“

“The Prestige is a true gem! Absolutely fantastic. The place is immaculate and the food and coffee are nothing short of spectacular. Top shelf presentation and service. The cafe is beautiful and oh so cozy with great relaxing music. The deli is filled with yummy bakery. I highly recommend this place over any other coffee cafe or deli. I’m sold!“

“10/10 ⭐️ Coffee and food is fabulous. The cafe has beautiful art inside of it, and the customer service was phenomenal!“

“I just wanted to thank the People at New Rules again!! I used the space to hold my birthday party. Everyone loved the unique space they offer. They were super easy to work with and very responsive with communication and questions. I would highly recommend them as an event space.“

“I was help this morning by a lovely lady named Jill. She was so energetic and it was nice to see a smiling face earlier than 8 AM. She helped me fiddle with my gift card and was patient with me and appreciate the excellent service. And the drink was delicious as always too. Thank you, Jill!“

“Never disappoints me! My favorite section are the detox teas 😉“

“Excellent staff who know their products and can recommend the right pick me up for you. Really enjoy their Loaded Teas. Definitely need to stop in.“

“Munkabeans is my go to morning place for meeting my neighbors on important issues!“

“Delightful restaurant with exceptional staff. The Food is absolutely delicious!“

“Smith Coffee never disappoints. The bright, welcoming ambiance makes the space so nice to walk into. The outdoor patio is a dream. Their fall drinks are artfully crafted.

I got the salted brown sugar latte at first. I loved it so much I had to get a drink to go and I chose the iced brown butter pumpkin latte. I was blown away. The best cold foam I’ve ever had (doesn’t even come close to Starbucks). It was everything I wanted in a fall drink and not sickly sweet at all. Perfectly balanced. The staff was so kind to let me sneak in a to-go order even though they were technically closed. I wish I lived closer! This place is a gem.“

“The service is always great, food is delicious and fast!“

“It has been a while since coming here under the new Ownership. I am glad I chose to reinvestgate. I ordered the Sothern fried steak, which came with hash browns and toast with coffee and water. The steak and gravy was one of the best I have ever had. The hash browns were good yet could have been browned a little more. The coffee was rich and did the job. Our Server was prompt and tentative. Great attitude. The price was an expected value, especially with the Senior discount. I am already planning a return trip to try some of their South American cuisine. I recommend giving this quiet place a try.“

“I love L&B stores. I have shopped there for many years. It us an experience.“

“The food was fresh and delicious! But even more importantly, the staff was so nice and helpful. Both of the FOH ladies were so sweet, and the BOH workers were kind and helpful when they needed to step in during a rush. 10/10 would return and recommend. 💜“

“Our company had a last minute breakfast this morning we needed catered, and found out 2days before (Wednesday night) the caterer we usually use couldn’t accommodate us. I called Ryan’s Cafe as soon as they opened Thursday morning and Ryan answered. I asked if there was any possible way he could cater breakfast for 57 the next morning by 7 am. He was in the middle of preparing for another event he was catering that day, but was gracious enough to ask questions, offer options and take down my information. He even made suggestions on which items to cut back on so I wasn’t overspending. He had the quote back to me in less than 30 minutes.Anthony, one of Ryan’s employees, arrived the next morning at 6:50 am with the food and had it all ready to serve by 7 am! The presentation was fantastic and the food even better! We had a variety of breakfast burritos and sandwiches (sausage, bacon, ham and a vegetarian option), hash browns, fresh fruit, pastries and all the condiments including butter, cream cheese, hot sauce, etc. Anthony was very helpful and gracious too!Everyone raved about how delicious and fresh the food was, and the generous quantities! And the bonus…the price was very competitive!I can’t say enough good things about Ryan, Anthony and Ryan’s Cafe! We’ll definitely have them cater for us at future events and look forward to the next one! Thank you Ryan, Anthony and Ryan’s Cafe for making our event such a success!“

“I was greeted with smiles and did not wait more than 30 seconds in the store to be helped to take my order! It was a very tropical hot Minnesota weather day, so the trip to Caribou and the cure for my hunger was refreshing and sufficient! The only suggestion I have for payment options, and I am not sure if this is a GooglePay issue or Caribou, but I had a gift card and was trying to order through the app and the gift card was not an option to even be able to choose as a payment. Not a deal breaker, just walked to the store and ordered in person. I just suggest maybe having an option to pay with gift card in app? Other than this, that is my novel of a review for Caribou! Keep up the friendly smiles!“

“I tried the Normatec many times , this time Damaris was able to explained all the facts, so glad I came this time she is phenomenal ♥️“

“I don’t really go here often but every now and then I’ll find a gift card from 2018 in my drawer and then I can justify spending $7 for 250mg caffeine. However whenever I do go the team working is always speedy and extremely friendly. Whenever I pull out 4 gift cards with $0.30-$4 on them the cashiers always look at me like I’m crazy. I don’t know how much is on them. They’ve been in a drawer for 7 years every time I use one it’s like seeing if I won the lottery or if it’s just an empty one I forgot to throw away. Anyways…staff here is great. Coffee is expensive but everything is expensive it’s 2025. They also need to start getting whole milk. 5 stars.“

“I've visited here a few times now since it is very convenient to my fulltime job and the Life Cafe near my home has shortened their hours so I can't get there. Very friendly and helpful employees and good selection of food and supplement products.“

“We went back to the Lakeside Cafe and had another FANTASTIC Dinner. Claudia our server was again so nice and has a great attitude, as she does everything to please you. My wife had the Fish and Chips Dinner which was Alaskan cod dipped in batter made their own honey blonde ale, and is golden fried on the outside. The Fish is served with some homemade tarter sauce, which is Soooo Good, coleslaw, and french fries. The meal also comes with fresh made soup or salad , and a homemade Dinner roll. The Fish is Huge with a crispy crust and is so moist inside. Very Tasty ! I had the the Meat Loaf Dinner which I had with mashed and a baked potato with gravy, and succotash vegetables. I also enjoyed a crispy salad and a homemade Dinner roll. The Meatloaf is so tasty as it is freshly made with Onions, Bell peppers and other tasty ingredients. Every time we go to the Lakeside Cafe we are so pleased with the Service, and Taste of the Food. You have to go and check it out. This place Rocks !“

“We ordered pork belly, sticky rice, glazed wings, hmong sausage, Khao poob, and papaya salad. it was soo much food and very reasonably priced. Most importantly it was DELICIOUS 😋!! The pork belly was so crispy and juicy- honestly the best I've had. The papaya salad was freshly made and so refreshing and spicy - like I watched her make it while we were waiting. That glaze on the wings was just *chefs kiss* Everything we ordered was sooo good! And the customer service was on point too 👌 We will definitely be back to try more.“

“Hands down one of the best tuna melts I've ever had. So glad to be back in town so I could have it again and very happy to see all the staff who have always been very kind and helpful. Another bonus is the great view if you want to eat outside.“
