“This adorable cafe blends in so well with the neighborhood I almost missed it. So glad I didn’t, though! The space is clean and tidy and there are a few tables to sit and enjoy a beverage. When it got busier, staff brought out additional seating to accommodate. I enjoyed my chai tea latte and the message on the milk foam added a fun little twist. Street parking only, but it wasn’t too hard to find a spot. Would visit again and definitely worth the trip!“
“Amore Coffee in Saint Paul is my favorite local gem. The cozy atmosphere, friendly staff, and exceptional coffee make it the perfect spot to unwind. Plus, their pastries are always fresh and delicious. Highly recommend for a relaxing coffee experience!Parking: It depends at what time you visit this place.“
“Wow. What a great experience. Our server Priscilla was amazing. She turned around what could have been a disappointing evening due to a longer than normal wait for our food by offering incredible service which is increasingly rare. The creme brulee was the life-changing. So good.“
“My daughter and I stopped in with no reservation while it was pretty busy and were seated right away. Our waitress was awesome and the service was fast. I got the Pork Belly & Biscuit- very delicious! My daughter got the Chicken Biscuit and she loved it! She isn’t a fan of honey but loved the hot honey that came with her dish ( she had it on the side to make sure she would like it). I was also impressed the coffee drink selection. Such great varieties! I had the Pistachio Cardamom which was so delicious. Also ordered the March special to go which was the Lucky Green Dream Latte- very delicious as well! Definitely stopping again when we are back in the area!“
“Dangling a 5-star rated place in front of a Yelp Elite? Especially a drive thru coffee kiosk? I just couldn't resist checking out Mudslingers. This place is SO cute, and it's so easy to stop by anytime you find yourself in or around Roseville. I got a small hot Buttercup drink with an extra shot of espresso. Delicious! There are a ton of options (and I didn't get a pastry this time) so I'll definitely have to come back and try more of their tasty drinks.“

“I've gone to this place at least a dozen times. Rarely is there a coffee shop this happy, cozy, and relaxing. They have a wide variety of flavors, including pistachio, an excellent array of food, and staff that genuinely cares and remember me. I highly recommend Vendella!“
“My favorite neighborhood ice cream shop! They serve Chocolate Shoppe ice cream from Wisconsin and it is the perfect creamy-but-not-too-fatty tasting ice cream. The flavors switch out a lot so there is variety, but my favorite (The S#$t Just Got Serious) is always there. The owner and team are friendly and I always leave smiling!“
“My family and I recently went to luminary and loved the place! It is cozy and we liked the theme. We tried several pastries (cinamon swirl, chocolate raspberry cone, and a chocolate croissant) and they were all delicious. We also all loved the coffee we got! It has been hard to find a spot with good coffee as of late and this spot was definitely one to save with great drinks and a great experience. The only con is there isn't a ton of seating and the place, seeing as it is so good, gets busy.“
“What a great place!!! I have been twice, coffee drinks were great - and the live music was so fun. Shows are all ages - so we've brought our 10 & 12 year old and they've had a great time! Thanks for giving the Twin Cities a COOL place for families to hang out without costing $$$“
“Absolutely love WildFlyer!! My drinks are delicious, the staff is friendly and fast, and I recently discovered they have a loyalty program.Definitely one of my top choices when I need a good remote work spot <3Dietary restrictions: Oat and Almond milk as substitutions“
“I went here with a friend last week for a coffee date. I LOVE Roots roasting! They change their specials every now and then and today I had a Cozy Chai with Oatmilk. It was super yummy! The coffee shop has 5 or 6 tables and a small bar to sit at so there is room to visit and it is worth the wait! Love this place!!“
“I was feeling adventurous so I ordered the Bluebeards Ghost and It was glorious! Slightly salty, a little spicy, and the Vanilla brought a subtle sweetness. I ordered it a second time and added sugar and totally ruined my drink, don't be like me ?Kid-friendliness: My daughter always gets a vanilla steamer when we come here. It makes her feel like a big girl which is pretty cute.“
“What a treat! Cafe Astoria offers an exquisite blend of immaculate vibes, tasty food, and unique beverages, both hot and cold. I highly recommend the Athena Omelet Wrap and Mexican Mocha. Seating was surprisingly ample! We were expecting to have to wait on a Saturday morning, but their spacious interior and friendly staff made for a very smooth and pleasant experience. Hope to be back!“
“I wish everything up on the hill were as perfect as Nina's. On a weekday morning this place is packed with people from all walks of life. A lot of students park here and take up tables just with them and their laptops which is my only gripe. Prices are reasonable. Be prepared to wait a bit for drinks because it is very popular.“
“This place is tucked away near United Hospital between 5th and 7th in StP. Since my partner doesn't care for breakfast food for breakfast, the diversity of LA Fusion's menu was perfect for him. Their full menu was available at 9am.Samosas, Kenyan bowls, crepes, burgers, salads, smoothies, quesadillas, lattes, breakfast sandwiches, omelettes oh my!ordered the beef samosas. My partner ordered the chicken quesadillas. Both came out within minutes.Three crispy samosas with a jerk dipping sauce (you have a choice of several different options)YUM! Well stuffed full of beef with a perfect crunch.The quesadilla was huge. He could only finish half and took the rest home for lunch.Very clean place. Huge drink menu. This was our second time visiting and look forward to exploring more of the menu.Parking: The paid lot has spaces designated for LA Fusion at no charge.“
“Had such a great visit here today! We were able to visit with the kitties without a reservation on a Tuesday morning. The kitties seemed happy and healthy and the environment was clean and seemed well cared for. There were so many lovely cats and it was fun to spend time with them. One climbed into my lap to snuggle for a bit wich I loved. The staff was super friendly and one of the kitties literally jumped into the staff members arms for a cuddle during the hour change over wich I thought was adorable. Obviously the staff here care very much for the cats and the cats love them back.Coffee was delicious as well. Will definitely be back ?“
“The atmosphere feels like home. Comfortable, light music in the background, a true community space.Conveniently located on the corner if University/Dale.The Marley is perfect for warming the vocal chords before a show. A favorite is the Electrical Lady; sure to get you through any Zoom meeting.“

“This is a coffee shop, not a full restaurant and they make some really nice coffee drinks with ingredients you don’t find at chain coffee places, like bitters and molasses and cardamom. The speciality coffee drinks are around $6-8 dollars but are worth it. More worth it than paying that for something at the Mermaid place.They have seating, but it is a small place, located inside of an entire building with other things in it. The building recently put in an old time arcade, so we went to Five Watt and had delicious coffee drinks, I think one was called Bee Sting if I recall. Then there were old pinball machines from the 80s and 90s around too in the hall areas of the building. The barista who was working at Five Watt was great. He was really nice and their speciality coffee drinks are amazing.“
“I usually get to Dunn Bros. on Saturday mornings to get a cup of French Java or another dark roast. The building is old, but has character. Art for sale on walls, cafe table, chairs, an old stage, and even a coffee bean roaster in the corner to admire. The locals are always there chatting, studying, or killing time. The workers are always smiling, friendly, quick to assist, and get the orders right. The place gets its fair share of interesting people though and that can make for some entertainment.“
“I ordered a sugar free decaf skim coffee drink and it was among the best I’ve ever had. The staff were friendly and personable and worked hard to make my order right. The space was cozy and had a number of places to sit even during a rush time.“
“Kid and I stopped by before school drop off, and will be back! Great, friendly service. Nice space. I got a latte (hot), kid had a mango smoothie, and we shared mini croissants. Excited to have a family-owned coffee + boba (and more) shop in the neighborhood.“
“I orderd the 6 inch Nutella cake for my wife's birthday. She and everyone at her party absolutely loved the cake. We loved it so much, we were so eager to cut a slice and forgot to take a picture before we did! We will definelty come back to Equisite for our cake needs!“
“Very cute place, I got the St. Paddy's latte 16oz (coconut and dark chocolate) and it was so yummy! A singular woman was up front taking and making orders, and did her job well! The pastries looked huge and delicious but I haven't gotten one yet :)“
“Nice place! If you live in the area it’s easy to walk to. If you’re in the area for the farmers market, it’s also east to walk to! I recommend the maple cold brew and croissant club sandwich. Each time I have been in for coffee the barista verifies my drink changes to be sure it’s being made right. I really appreciate this!“
“Man this place well Gravy Babies on the weekends is sooooo good everything I ate was on point I had smothered pork chops, smothered steak and candied yams collard greens with turkey neck and cabbage, rice cornbread and cake was all the way off the chain have to make it her at least once on the weekends, worth the money I promise you your gonna like it“
“Professional Private Nanny Here!! My little & I always enjoy coming here. The atmosphere is cool, clean, & Sensory friendly. & a Montessori unique Vibe. The Owner always makes sure our experience is always a great one. I love that they clean the toys and rotate them regularly. Not to mention their snack board is amazing! & they have coffee too! Another favorite is they have a nursing room and two bathrooms with a small toliet so my little and I can use the potty at the same time! She does have Sensory issues so this was a huge hit for us!! And if you need a break from playing they have a arts and crafts room with a new theme every single day ! I highly recommend age suitable for 1-5 y/o in my experience.We definitely will make this our go to place!“
“Stopped in for a croissant and after that one I had to get more to take home! Also enjoyed a few other treats and some friendly employees. I hope the St. Patty’s croissants are available next year as well because they were seriously AMAZING.“
“Heard about them on the local news and my local neighborhood FB page. Had to give them a try. Delicious food. Ordered the Alex and the Minnesota Chickena and Wild rice. The pies were so good and pastry was so light. Also tried their French fries and was not disappointed. Was fun to try something new and support a local restaurant.“
“A truly memorable experience! They host tastings quite regularly to help each brand promote its products and connect with the consumer directly. They have a huge selection of THC products from beverages to edibles. There is something here for everyone. Highly recommend!“
“I can't say enough good things about this place. I'm so glad there's a place for fancy pastries right down the street. I've never had a dessert I didn't love. Thanks for being in our community and making tasty treats, LDB!“
“Having numerous earnings from Mrs Mariel Ramsey trading platform is a life-time experience, with the capital of $1,000 I made a successful withdrawal of $12,500 after 7 working days, now I'm creditworthy!, Never before have I seen a broker so dedicated, hard-working and yet still tenacious at the same time, keep up the good works! contact Mrs Mariel Ramsey for genuine trading and fast profit payout without any issue.“
“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!“
“We enjoyed every part of our dining experience at Momento last night. The employees are welcoming, knowledgeable and oozing with pride and excitement. We thoroughly enjoyed trying foods we've never had before and felt well informed by our server Kevin. We ordered three shareable plates: Meze, Brussels sprouts and peas & toast. We even left with a recommendation for breakfast in the morning. The colorful decor, including many plants and fresh herbs complimented the experience perfectly. We tried to tell everyone we met that night to come try it out as we might not make the 5 hour trip back for some time.“
“Christopher does an amazing job managing this Caribou located in the Securian financial building in Saint Paul's skyway system. Their friendly staff will remember your name with a smile. Once a regular, I no longer frequent their MSP Caribou due to the change of their loyalty program. With nearly 7,000 points, Caribou devalued my point value. No Bueno.Parking: Horrible. They are located in the skyway system of downtown Saint Paul.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes, via elevator.“
“Wonderful coffee bar in a beautiful, St.Paul neighborhood. Coffee was great and so was the service and snacks. Perfect place to sit and reminisce with friends, work on your laptop, or just sit by the window and watch the world go by with a warm or cold coffee drink. 5-Stars out of 5“
“I love everyone that works at the West Side Flats Starbiez ☺️ I feel like i’m cheating whenever i go anywhere else & everywhere else sucks at making my drinks! ? Everyone’s so friendly and welcoming, me and my friends’ pups approve and appreciate the stars & location of this starbz ☺️?“
“Cute, most of the plants are real.Good coffee/cookies, would eat again.Cold. As in the longer I sat there the more stiff I became. Granted I was by a window.Asked the barista what the wifi password was and she responded by aggressively pointing in a corner and [sighing] obnoxiously. Thank you for your incredible hospitality mam.“
“Great atmosphere, the happy employees with their banter behind the counter and the openness of the order area is comforting. My breakfast sandwich was quite frankly the best one I’ve ever had, worth the money. I live over 45 minutes away but I will be back just for this shop!“
“My wife is vegan and has a sugar intolerance and was certain she would not be able to enjoy ice cream again, until we found this spot! Stacked with delicious ice cream, chocolates, and even ice cream cakes!!! This place is AMAZING. Geniuses. Everything is made in shop and definitely made with love. We will be back time and time again. Also, SUPER friendly!!!“
“Great spot for a quick meal or pastry, we liked our chocolate croissants and we had an egg salad sandwich. Service was quick on a Saturday afternoon. It was a bit full and loud for seating so we sat in the common area of a few other businesses and it was comfortable and quieter. We look forward to trying more on the menu!“
“Ginkgo Coffee House in Saint Paul is my favorite local gem. The laid-back atmosphere, friendly vibes, and aromatic coffee make it the perfect spot to unwind or catch up with friends. Their commitment to quality shines through in every sip. A must-visit for any coffee lover in the area.Parking: It depends at what time you visit this place.“
“I’ve had my tries at local and nation wide places and find Ding Tea to be the most pleasant delicacy of tea and boba texture. My all time favorite and need my tea fix often to satisfy the boba cravings! Always quick with service and each associate can deliver the same awesome taste every time!!!“
“If you drink hot chocolate, you know that Caribou's can't be beat. After all, they make the drink with REAL chocolate and steamed milk; Starbucks and the other places' cocoa doesn't even come close!The service at this Caribou - and Caribous, in general - is great: attentive, quick, and accurate.This place has changed a lot since it was an Arthur Treacher's Fish & Chips back in the 70s. It's not one of the cozy-with-fireplace Caribous but it welcomes all types and has lots of outdoor seating with great people watching.“
“Let's start with Desmond he was above and beyond. Any of you who have read my reviews know that my wife has a dairy allergy. Desmond really did a great job of making sure my wife's meal had no dairy. Thanks Desmond we really appreciated your help. We will be back.“
“Great food, wonderful service. Recommend the Greek Omelette - unbelievable. Largest side of bacon I've ever had and perfectly cooked. Oddly, for being named the coffee cup, the coffee is on the weak side. But once the food arrives who cares.“
“My birthday party was at Pajarito in Saint Paul last week. We had about 25 in attendance. The staff did an excellent job keeping drinks flowing and the food refreshed. They were friendly and easy for my husband to work with on the planning. The food was good and we were able to bring in a cake. Thank you!“
“Generally I prefer to go to a coffee shop to sit and relax inside. I'm not big on drive throughs. But since I was driving by, I figured I'd check this place out. Was nice experience. Just want to make sure I get scooted up, not scoot out. ?“
“Have been shopping at Ha Tien since they opened. They recently completed upgrades to the store and would say they have become one of the best Asian grocery shopping experiences. They have a great meat & fresh seafood counter. Actually saw frozen wild boar as well. You will be hard pressed not to find what you need here.“
“This is my all time favorite Caribou. The staff give great service and are extremely sweet. My drink is always amazing no matter who makes it. Seeing other reviews comment on “noise of blenders” or “amount of ice” is actually really irritating since it’s out of the staffs control and they are just doing their jobs. If you can’t handle the staff making drinks according to Caribous corporate rules make your own coffee at home. This Caribou is a great location and I will continue to return. Thank you for providing my days with a drinks full of joy. :b“
“I love this place so much but it’s really far away so I only go every now and then. Does anyone know if they’re open? Google says it’s temp closed and their website has different days/times available. I tried calling and emailing, nothing goes through.“
