“We got there at 11:00am and Mary was the hostess...she was so wonderful in a very stressful time...they were packed and she got us seated quick...my wife uses a walker !!! Great experience !“

“I not only buy our bread weekly from Great Harvest Bread, I give bread and bags of cookies as gifts to people we appreciate. Also, the friendliness and helpfulness of all at the North Broadway location makes it a favorite place to shop. I hope to keep finding energy bars in stock. Wow! Powerful and healthy!“

“The raspberry lemon bundlette is the best gluten free cake I've ever had. It did not taste gluten free at all, and my partner agreed. Exceptionally moist with tasty cream cheese icing.

I've been hesitant to order here, but I would definitely recommend it to anyone. Ingredients are far superior to Hy-vee, Target and other supermarkets where quality has gone downhill over the years.“

“I work in the ER at Mayo, and Crumbl donated cookies to the ER staff tonight knowing the ER has been extra busy due to the recent weather. This was such a wonderful surprise and a great morale boost for the team. Crumbl is always delicious and consistently reliable for excellent cookies and great customer service.“

“I really liked the food I bought and will come back more often. The only thing I think needs improvement is the service; besides delivering the food well-packaged and always well-prepared, there's a lack of a bit more courtesy and friendliness when interacting with customers. Apart from that, the food was tasty and the atmosphere pleasant!

Parking: I've never had difficulty finding a parking spot, and there's no need to pay for parking.“

“Nestled inside the Hy-Vee Market, this very friendly and accomodating grill offers breakfast, lunch and dinner along with a selection of beverages. After a couple of visits, you feel like a regular when they greet you by name. Always a wonderful place for an awesome breakfast!“

“This is a fun place to bring your kids. My kids are 1,5,and 7. It is a small donut shop but you get to watch them make baby donuts and then your kids love it becaue the donuts are little like them and they get to pick alot of different flavors. ;) it's a little less them $5.00 for 6 small donuts. I think its worth it! Spent 15.00 for three different flavors and my kids loved it!!! :)“

“The workers are always so sweet and patient. I go in with my niece and nephew and they love it. The workers have given them boba stickers. we love the flair of their tea and the flavors. Awesome business.“

“What a find! This little gem it set inside of a beautiful and peaceful nursery and serves an authentic and impressive flat white! We also loved the lavender lemonade which was resonant with flavor of real lavender and was a perfect little drink. Lovely friendly staff and lots of comfortable seating. Dog friendly which is another big plus.“

“I visited Spyhouse Coffee Roasters in Rochester on a quiet Sunday morning, and it instantly stood out as a refined, intentional space that takes coffee seriously. From the moment I stepped in, the aroma of freshly ground beans and the clean, modern aesthetic created a calm and inviting atmosphere. The space is beautifully designed—minimalist yet warm, with large windows that flood the room with natural light, perfect for a slow morning or catching up on reading.

I ordered a single-origin pour-over and a croissant, and both exceeded expectations. The coffee was exceptionally well-brewed—bright, layered, and clearly sourced with care. The baristas were friendly but not overbearing; they knew their craft and were happy to explain the tasting notes. I also appreciated that they offered alternative milk options and had a thoughtful, small menu of pastries that paired well with their drinks.

What I loved most about Spyhouse was its balance between sophistication and comfort. It’s not just a place to grab a quick coffee—it invites you to stay, sip, and enjoy the experience. Whether you’re a coffee enthusiast or just want a beautiful spot to unwind in Rochester, Spyhouse delivers both in quality and atmosphere. I’ll definitely return next time I’m in town.
Note: Tipping is important here, if you don't tip they don't serve you as a best customer.“

“Beautiful inside and the desserts we tried were phenomenal! By far the best bakery I’ve ever been to! Decadent, amazing flavor, perfect in every way!“
