High quality local coffee shop. The type of place you can meet a friend, work on a project, or simply visit to connect with community. Love this place.

If you’re in Rochester, MN and looking for great coffee, this is your spot. Coffee was absolutely dialed in — smooth, bold, and consistent. The sugar-free syrup options were A+ (hard to find good ones, and they nailed it).

The atmosphere is amazing — perfect for client meetings, remote work, or just taking a break from the day. Staff was outstanding: friendly, efficient, and genuinely welcoming.

Pro tip: Park in the back or take a short walk through downtown Rochester. Totally worth it.

As a local business owner with Homes By Luke, I appreciate places that care about quality and community — and this one does it right. Highly recommend. ☕️💪

Cafe steam checks all the boxes that you would expect of a specialty coffee shop. Although during peak hours seating is limited, the kindness and intentionality of the baristas and the delicious coffee and scones make up for it. I especially appreciate the diverse menu and late hours. Definitely recommend for a quick cup of joe, or for a cozy place to read or study!

Seating was scarce because most tables were taken by solo laptop users. The noise level from knocking out the portafilters and staff calling across the bar created an environment that felt, to me, like a signal to keep visits short.

True coffee shop experience! Loved that there is plenty of seating. Parking is a bit of a bear, but once you're inside its the delightful eccentric coffee shop that you're expecting.

Steam has a great selection of coffee/espresso drinks. It's always an incredibly cheery spot to stop in to. Happy to bring guests any time we have visitors.

I was planning on having a girls trip brunch here, but they decided to make business political and not support law enforcement. I will be taking all of my business elsewhere.👎
