“lost fox is my go-to for coffee on overnights, great breakfast, excellent servers. 10/10“

“I had such a great time at this place! There are games, books, fun products to buy (I left with multiple things), GREAT coffee, and cute cats. The staff is wonderful. I highly recommend this place!“

“Wonderful combo of traditional fare and things you've probably never heard of. Friendly people and beautiful, tasty food.“

“Thank you for making my day! Today is my birthday and my hubby went to get my favorite treat(The House Made Chocolate Cake) at the Stillwater location, but they were closed. Then those little angels inside saw him lingering at the door and after he told them his dilemma they gave him TWO slices to save the day! Showing kindness like that is a true testimony to your business model and all that is right in this world! We love that you are in Stillwater now. Thank you and see you soon!“

“Great coffee, really clean place and super friendly people. We will be back!“

“Wonderful spot close to Mississippi Market in St. Paul. There is a beautiful small park (when weather permits) to sit outside. The building itself is old and very Swedish even though the history of Swede Hollow is long-past, lots of "hygge" inside (yes I know it's Danish but they did own the country, kinda). A few tables downstairs, one cozy one on the mezzanine, 6-7 upstairs and a neat "conference room" with a very comfy cozy reading armchair. Coffee really good (Americano, Cubano), great selection, had a studenty-feel, but we are close to MSU. The food looked very good. One of my new favourite "Third Places"“

“Great coffee and atmosphere.“

“Great food. Fast service, even considering the waitlist of people on a Saturday morning. Estimated wait time 20 min, seated in 10.

Note to other patrons:
Bringing a large group to breakfast on the busiest day of the week? Call ahead and reserve a table. Panicking the high school age hostess because you brought a group of 11, which was shortly followed by a group of 6, to a popular busy breakfast place and didn’t plan ahead… not their fault. Being seated after 1-top and 2-tops… normal. They only have so many big tables. Don’t flip out at the young girl trying to find you a table because someone eating by themselves was seated before your entire group had a free table. Accept YOUR bad planning and wait til they can accommodate you.

To the girls who were hosting and seating today:
I’m appalled by the way I watched these people treat you. You did everything right, and if they complain later about it, I hope your bosses see this comment!“

“Loved this place! If you’re gluten free - they will take good care of you! My kid has a gluten allergy and they were so careful to accommodate and she was enamored with the food. Service was fantastic also! Great experience! Will make this a regular stop when in the Twin Cities! ❤️“

“Solid and consistent good coffee.. creative bakery with fun flavors , kind staff. I love that they let people sell products and crafts along the wait line area.. a sweet mom/child project for scrunchies got me and I bought some.. 💕 oh!!! Don’t go on Mondays and be sad! That is the only day they are closed. Buy a scrunchie if you can!! Sweet mama and daughter sewn.“

“Check this place out if you get to the fair. Great beer selection and tasty food! The tacos and arancini are amazing, and have the nachos for a little extra snack.“

“Staff were friendly, helpful, and informative. I asked a lot of questions since I'm new to the area and had not tried Caribou Coffee before. The drink was made exactly to my specifications and was very good.
Apple cinnamon pastries are delicious. I took an extra one home with me. Eggs benedict sandwich was okay but less flavorful than expected. The store was very clean and had a comfortable atmosphere.“

“Mim’s Cafe is a FIND! Great atmosphere, friendly workers and our schwarma was delicious! The mocha and chai were on point too. We will be back!“

“Just moved to the neighborhood and this place is incredible. The folks are super friendly and everything has been delicious. The first time we went, we sat in the dining room and they have a back room with a table of billardettes. It was super cool to see folks playing and learn how it works. My partner is Eritrean and the Awaze Tibbs and a veggie platter were a smash hit. Since then, we've had cheese steaks and espresso drinks. Both were delicious. They roast their own coffee beans and even sold us some. We are also looking forward to the upcoming Eritrean community events they have advertised. Only critique is the bathroom could use some love. It doubles as a storage closet/shower full of cleaning supplies.“

“Locally owned Columbian cafe. The owner Luis is always around for quality control. Coffee is rich and tasty. Breakfast Americano is fabulous. Arepas y marmelada has delicious fruit compote �“

“It’s the first time. Nice place. Good coffee. Friendly staffs 🥰“

“Great food and friendly attentive waitress when we ate here today. The dining area is nice with the big windows and the tables were nicely spaced apart.“

“Shar’els is just a great local cafe. The food is excellent. The service is great. Highly recommend for a great meal!“

“I got some breakfast here before my appointment at M Health Fairview and it was pretty decent! In particular, all the staff were really nice and friendly. Their coffee was kind of mid, but I thought the breakfast sandwich I had was pretty good. Overall, a decent stop if you are at the clinic and need a pick me up.“

“This is not my normal Caribou I stop at; only once in a while do we stop at this location. We always receive great service. Fast, courteous, and the order is ALWAYS correct! This time, I forgot to order my kiddo's cake pop and the barista added it to the order with no problem when we got to the drive thru window! She did not make me feel it was a hassle adding it last minute even though they were busy! Thank you ?“

“An excellent value in the neighborhood. Scratch made meals and nice staff.“

“Less of a coffee shop and more of a hangout place for Christians they only take donations and you don't have to pay anything for what you order, it takes a bit to get your drink but it's very good. I'm not religious personally but I find it very relaxing to just come in and study, work it just mess around on my phone. Don't come here thinking it's just a coffee shop, all the workers at least when I've been here have been very kind.“

“One of the best coffee shops in town. They serve only the highest quality coffee and they are experts at their craft. Stopped in today for a macchiato and it was spot on perfect and reasonably priced. And a bonus: they partner with Rustica for sundry bakery items. That gingersnap won’t last long. Snap.“
