I really love this place! Close to work thus how I found out about it. Prices are generally really good compared to many coffee shops around the area. Lg cold brew was around $3 compared to the >$5 at the place near my house. The food is also wonderful! The employees are really nice as well! Went in the first time expecting an overpriced downtown coffee shop, but it was much more like an affordable small town kind of place!

This is a friendly, lovely coffee stand in the lobby of a downtown St. Paul building (and accessible via the Skyway). They have a labeled vegan pound cake and also a vegan breakfast sandwich (made with chorizo and vegan cheese).
Stop by for something special! #Veganuary

Randomly stumbled on this spot a week or so ago and was glad I did, the people working here were so genuinely engaging and friendly, it caught me off guard in a good way, chatting and getting a coffee was a great moment in my day that day. I didn't know what to get either but the barista working suggested something specific they liked drinking and it was delicious. Strong espresso and could taste vanilla, lavender, etc. def not any watered down anything, and it was not expensive which I appreciated.

The atmosphere in Osborne plaza is fantastic. A great place to meet people be it for a good cup of coffee, pastry, beverage, just to be in the expansive, warm and welcoming lobby makes your meeting and day brighter. Never know who you might run into there too...

This place is such a hidden gem. I work close by and just happened upon it, and am now a frequent flyer and recommend to anyone looking for a lunch spot! I've never had anything i don't like, the prices are fair, and the service is top tier.
The tuna wrap is delicious. The recipe is a classic--egg, pickle, celery, tuna, salt and pepper. Might be a smidgen of vinegar, too. Crisp romaine lettuce. Comes with a dill pickle. This is my favorite wrap. The meatloaf sandwich is good too!

Great coffee, friendly staff, and wonderful food/pastries! They have some really fun seasonal drinks too.
The two employees working were so sweet and really helped me out for my first time ordering from Hepcat. The service was SO quick and easy. They recommended I try the pistachio loaf which I couldn't resist. It was spectacular! Overall a great experience and I'll definitely be back soon.

Super cute and vegan friendly! The staff was incredibly friendly, too. Good seating (both in the cafe and in the building lobby). Highly recommend.

Coffee was smooth, expertly made, and very well priced. This is a chef owned coffee pop up so the food looked pretty amazing. Unfortunately I had just had lunch, so I didn't try any of the food, but looking forward to a breakfast sandwich in the near future. The backdrop is ritzy/corporate/tech. It's in the Osborne 730 building, staff was very friendly.

A lobby coffee shop. The food selection is weak, but improving (I'm told it will improve greatly very soon). The only coffee selection for a regular coffee drinker is "Americano", the lack of a drip or pour over is noticeable.

Depends on the day. The guy that works there is very pleasant, always gets my order right! Coffee is hot on some days lukewarm on others.
