32 Best Coffee Shops near Ramsey

“It’s time I write this review, as this is the best Caribou Coffee I’ve ever tried. This is coming from a previous Caribou hater. This location has such amazing staff, I have yet to get somebody not great. They all smile, they’re all friendly and most importantly they get your order right. I order a caramel crafted press with a shot of espresso and extra carmel every time, and every time that they hand it to me I have tears in my eyes from joy. It’s always the perfect color and it tastes so so good, no other Caribou makes their crafted press this perfect. I wish Caribou Coffee gave out awards to their locations because this location would win it!!“

“This location is by far the best I’ve ever been to. Staff members are incredibly friendly, kind and efficient. Drinks are consistent and made correctly as ordered. I struggle with coffee chains because the taste of drink can be wildly inconsistent from store to store or barista to barista. I’ve been here 10+ times and have yet to experience that issue! I’ve visited the other Ramsey location a few times out of convenience and have had negative experiences, so I highly recommend this location even if it’s a little out of the way :)“

“We love going to The Edge for our morning coffee! The staff is always super friendly and full of energy. I’m so happy to have a great local coffee shop to support.“

“I had such a great experience at Compassion Coffee. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere felt welcoming and cozy. The staff were friendly and clearly passionate about what they do. My drink was made perfectly and tasted great. It’s the kind of place you want to sit, relax, and stay for a bit. Whether you’re stopping in for a quick caffeine fix or meeting a friend, this spot really delivers. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Fantastic customer service, coffee, tea, soup and sandwich. The world needs more places like this. A piece of heaven in Elk River. Thank you for a great experience as I stepped out of the holiday rush to get a couple of things and recharge.“

“First time ever stopping. The staff at the cash register recommended their Strawberry Rhubarb Iced coffee. As I told them I was having a hard time choosing whether to go out of my comfort zone to try it or get my regular mocha 😅 Let me tell you it was FANTASTIC, the best coffee i’ve ever had honestly. Even told me if I wasn’t a huge fan they’d make me something else! 10/10 experience. I never write reviews but this place definitely deserves it! Will be back.“

“My favorite drink is the large iced chocolate mousse with an extra shot. My daughter likes to try something new every time. Love their collection of vintage clothes and local artists as well! Love small businesses supporting each other! Head to Metta Coffee when you are DTA!“

“The closest Caribou to where we live is a 2.5 hour drive! So, when we go to Minnesota, it’s a dream come true. We love Caribou. Last week we were in Maple Grove for a family funeral and stayed close to The Grove Caribou location. It was awesome. Quick and easy using the app, friendly staff and a wonderful atmosphere to compliment the tasty coffee. Of course I never did get the Trivia question right, but even that adds to the fun of getting coffee from there. Thanks Caribou!!“

“I stop at this Caribou Coffee every single morning, and the customer service is honestly top tier. The staff recognizes my vehicle the moment I pull into the drive thru and already knows who I am and what I’m ordering before I even say a word. That kind of consistency and friendliness makes such a difference in starting my day.

Not only is the service amazing, but the drinks are always made perfectly and the food is delicious every time. You can really tell the team cares about their customers and takes pride in what they do. Easily one of the best coffee shop experiences around!“

“10/10
Edit: Thank you for the very kind response to my review Caribou!
A few things that really stood out for me was:
• The amazing coffee + delicious food (multiple vegan options and options for dietary restrictions)
• The very kind staff and fast service
• The perfect cozy and welcoming atmosphere
• It's never overcrowded
• It's the perfect place to sit, relax, and enjoy delicious coffee
• I have extreme social anxiety, so I can't relax easily in public spaces but I can relax completely at Caribou!
• It's never too loud there and is the perfect volume, so you can talk easily without straining to hear and it's never too overwhelming!
Thank you so much Caribou!“

“When I first moved here I wasn’t familiar with the menu at all, but the staff were super friendly and helped me pick out the perfect drink option for me! I really appreciated the assistance and eased my “new place” anxiety without feeling pressured or rushed for my order. It’s been a year now since my first purchase with them, and I still feel just as welcome when I walk through the door!“

“great service . we all enjoyed our drinks“

“I enjoy my lattes but I had to have them
Make me another .. why?????
The coffee/espresso amount you put in beverages is ridiculous for the price we all pay

Could not taste any coffee and the color was so light it was all milk .. Starbucks is my go to lately!

Perks are not the best either
Just being truthful“

“Wonderful experience. Customer service was professional. That super friendly girl at the window speaks French :-)“

“This is easily my favorite Caribou location, mainly because of the staff. They’re always incredibly friendly and welcoming.

Special shoutout to Tyler. He’s always a vibe and keeps the energy positive every time I come in.

The store is really clean, and the drinks and food are consistently good. I’ve never had any issues here. I come pretty often and will sometimes sit inside to work on my laptop, and it’s always a solid experience.“

“Love Avant Garden! Add it to your places to visit when you are DTA!“

“Best Coffee ALWAYS. Has a great soothing atmosphere, great decorations and a convenient location“

“Our church group has a men's breakfast and coffee one day each week at this Caribou Coffee area. The service has always been outstanding and everyone I have ever encountered has been very friendly. The coffee and food has always been excellent.“

“I actually go out of my way to visit this specific store. The staff here are great. I have never gotten a wrong order. When there is an issue (no bubble straws) they own it and the apology is sincere. I will continue to visit this store daily even though I pass two others on my commute. P.S. very happy to get a bubble straw today!!!“

“By far the best Starbucks in the vicinity. They're always friendly and happy to make your coffee. I've never had a drink that wasn't made right and I buy a lot of white chocolate mochas. The new location in Albertville is way closer but the service is horrible so I'll drive the 8 miles and be happy when I leave.“

“I have been going to visit Jess at nutrition haven for almost 3 years now!!!!! The shakes are amazing and they do work for me to slim down but mostly feeling so much better! My mind is clearer and I’m able to make it through the day without the fatigue I used to have. More than a shake shop!“

“Went to this Caribou today on 7.24.24 and the man helping us ended up getting the wrong size coffee from his team and generously offered the wrong sized drink as they prepared the right size drink. Thank you! Wish yall were in Texas other then at Dallas DFW airport.“

“Casey over in the lobby was by far the kindest caribou worker I have EVER came across. Her customer service was exceptional. She made things easy because she WANTED to. She enjoyed customer service beyond the normal amount. And I have had caribou for years and there is nothing that can compare to Casey’s service. You can see she loves this place and makes it worth every visit. I am always positive and trying to spread it. But she left me speechless and handles the team so uplifted in happiness! I wouldn’t recommend anywhere else. This is my new caribou!“

“Great friendly staff and good coffee and sandwiches! This is my favorite coffee place to meet my friends.“

“Golden fruit tea 🎉 Wildly brown sugar 🎉“

“Shout out to the lovely woman who worked the drive through this morning. Ordered a mocha for my hubby and didn’t get the chocolate covered bean - which I always steal from him. When she saw my disappointment she gave me a whole bunch of chocolate beans. Totally made my day! Thank you for going above and beyond to mark a customer smile!“

“great customer service. always happy to see me in the morning and remember my name and coffee!“

“Emilee is always very nice and pleasant at this Starbucks (at Target Otsego). She is very helpful to all clients. My daughters and I particularly love coming to this Starbucks because of how pleasant she is. Keep the good service flag flying Emilee, you are a star☺️“

“Emma and Lillian were absolutely amazing. We prefer Caribou over Starbucks but they completely turned our experience around. They were patient with us and helped us figure out what we'd like. The drinks they made were perfect! We will definitely be coming back to Starbucks, thanks to Emma and Lillian.“

“So excited to have a Starbucks on my way to work! Staff is always friendly and efficient. Most of my drinks have been great so far. My only complaint is they haven’t nailed the chocolate cream cold foam yet. The couple times I’ve ordered it, it’s much more bitter and the texture and color aren’t quite right. I know this is a new location so I’m sure they’ll figure it out in time, but maybe don’t order that for a bit, til they work it out. Everything else has been great!“

“great customer service. always happy to see me in the morning and remember my name and coffee!“

“Best Starbucks I’ve been to. The girls are always friendly and happy to be there. I’m really appreciative of that because at some locations, they have attitudes.
Very clean inside, drive thru moves super fast.
I’m super happy with the quality of the food and drinks, it’s always consistent at this location. Will be coming here from now on.“
