I love their lemon Bread and the White Chocolate Mochas was excellent.“

“After moving boxes and all kinds of things around from a storage unit to a hotel room and getting everything unpacked and put away, a large vanilla shake, regular burger with no pickles & no mustard, and a large sprite to take it all in with…. it was magical!!! It was like virgin mcdonald groupies!!! I can’t remember the last time it was so darn delicious!!!!!♥️ ?? ??? ?“

“Delicious coffee and baked goods! Our team loves picking up from your Cafe! 💫“

“Stopped in for a late lunch on the patio. Was interested in a bitters & soda and the server recommended mixing the rhubarb and cardamom, which was delicious and refreshing. Followed that with the Chix Correa sandwich and a side salad. Wow! Really creative flavors and well-executed. Could tell everything was made from scratch and with high quality ingredients and care. Also the decor was fun and hip, the music top-notch, and the staff kind. I look forward to coming back soon!“

“The staff is amazing and kind. I really appreciated as a first time customer them asking what I like and then offering suggestions. Definitely not disappointed in my choice of the sugar maple and chocolate chip banana bread! Will be trying out more flavors of drinks!“

“Always great friendly staff!!“

“They have wonderful chai, a good breakfast and very chill vibes. Great little coffee shop!“

“Great coffee place! What makes this place special is the owners providing a separate building for AA meetings that run from dusk to dawn. Now that is Good Karma!“

“I don’t usually leave reviews, but this place deserves it. From the moment you walk in, the vibe is welcoming, the space is clean, and the energy just feels right. The coffee is consistently top tier smooth, rich, and made with care every single time.

But what really makes this spot special is the people behind it. My brother Mohamed is one of the hardest working, genuine individuals you’ll ever meet. He puts real passion into everything he does, and you can feel that in the service and attention to detail here.

Whether you’re stopping by for a quick coffee, getting work done, or just hanging out, this place delivers every time. It’s more than just a coffee shop. it’s a community spot.“

“Coffee is amazing ❤️ and customer service is lovely 😊“

“This coffee shop is truly one of a kind! 🩷☕️ The humans who work here make the experience so welcoming from the moment you walk in. Kudos ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ And I don’t say this lightly — I’ve been ordering coffee for decades, and this is hands down the best iced coffee I’ve ever had! If you haven’t stopped by yet, you’re missing out 🙌🐒-T-🩷“

“Great atmosphere, great coffee and the best caprese sandwich around.“

“Excellent service and staff! Highly recommend. Friendly service and excellent food. ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“If this place served nothing but the breakfast sandwich, it would still be one of my favorite joints in the cities. Every ingredient is perfect, and lovingly crafted into one of the tastiest, heartiest breakfasts you've ever held in your hand. Add to that some great service and friendly atmosphere and you've got a place worth coming back to any chance you get. Also a big fan of their snickerdoodles and the Reuben sandwich - I'm told the vegetarian Reuben (with smoked beets instead of corned beef) is good if you're into that kind of thing.“

“Great coffee! Best coffee prices around. Always great, friendly and fast service! Local owned family business. Can’t recommend them enough. Go check them out and you won’t be disappointed!“

“My favorite coffee shop in town. Lovely baristas who know my order before I even get to the counter. My child is always so excited to go there on the weekends. Plus, their dedication to kindness, justice, and inclusiveness in our community is inspiring.“

“Perfect addition to the emerging coffee scene in Columbia Heights. Exceptional coffee and excellent vibes!“

“Lovely atmosphere. Educational experience. Helpful and friendly staff.“

“My family has been going for over 15 years now! Loved the old owners and the new ones! We go pretty such every week or more! Great community and people to get to know and the love and Inclusivity is felt so strongly. I love staring at the art and things around while waiting for my coffee. Even when they are busy they still remain just as patient and kind💕“

“I love bringing my daughter here to play while I have an iced coffee, but I do have to deduct a star because the floor in the kids play area is always covered in dirt, even if we come early in the morning. Otherwise, the baristas are always friendly, the coffee is top notch, and the vibes are immaculate ✨“

“Great Ethiopian coffee! It's my "go to" place every weekday morning!“

“This has become my new go-to for coffee in Minneapolis! The cold brew is always solid and delicious and the seasonal lattes are always a nice treat. All of the staff are friendly and welcoming and it’s just an amazing coffee shop to have in the neighborhood.“

“We absolutely loved our visit! The baristas were friendly and full of knowledge and facts about the kitties. To add another layer of cuteness, the drink names being cat themed is amazing! Definitely recommend a visit or if you’re looking for a friend to bring home 💕“

“Had the Berry iced tea and added vanilla, it was soooo delicious and refreshing. The veggie burrito may be my new favorite. I’ve been thinking about it ever since! The baristas are super friendly and the vibes are cozy and welcoming. Can’t wait to come back!“

“Great coffee, people, and music!“

“Everyone there is so nice, and their coffee is the best! And you’re liable to meet some cool dogs!“

“I had a caramel latte hot, and I loved how authentic and good it tasted. It didn’t taste completely sugared up and the artwork on it was cute and reminded me of my husband.
My husband got some type of coffee. I don’t remember what it was but he said it was really good. The vibe was so nice and calm. It’s a little annoying to find, but eventually we found it.“

“fajita breakfast burrito is where it's at.“

“Found it by accident while in town. Met one of my friends there at the same time. Great little coffee shop. Busy but plenty of space to chill over a cup.“

“The atmosphere is one of the best for a coffee shop. Plus there are plugs everywhere if looking to work. It smells great. The drinks are amazing. The customer service is outstanding and very friendly. Try the pistachio latte or Dubai chocolate cheesecake!“

“Delicious food, amazing service and atmosphere! I’ve been twice in the last month already 😁🤭 Side note: their menu has pork notations! Which is super helpful as I don’t eat pork“

“Best iced homemade chai!!“

“The customer service is outstanding! We appreciate that they acknowledge and recognize us when we walk in. The pastries are amazing. Chocolate donuts, almond croissants, cinnamon rolls, butter croissants are all delicious! In nice weather we are able to walk there. In the cold snowy weather parking can be an issue, but we always manage. I had 1 issue with my coffee once and the staff person quickly fixed it and was very kind and helpful, as they always are! Since we are typically there in the morning, I have not tried the dumplings yet, but I imagine they are also very good.“

“Amazing drinks! Beautiful space“

“I don't frequent this caribou since it's pretty out of the way for me, but in the 5ish times I've stopped here over the past couple years, I've always received a high-quality drink, the staff have always been friendly, and the environment has always been well maintained when I'm there! I wish my local caribou was half as consistent!“

“Something for everyone:
Gluten free options, Vegan options,Coffee alternative options, and of course the good stuff for everyone else.

My wife got the Tia’s Tumeric Latte (golden latte) and the vegan banana bread. I got the cardamom latte w. Almond milk with a gluten-free bagel. 10/10 Mocha Momma knows how to make a good espresso.

The owner is polite, friendly, and in general just a wonderful human being. We enjoyed our visit in the morning that we came back for a second coffee in the afternoon.
5 stars.“

“Fell in love with this coffee! We order twice a month now, no other coffee will do!“

“Having an employee smile when they tell you that you could pay them less money because you have expiring offers you didn't know about is something I just don't expect. But that's exactly what happened. I walked out with a med brewed coffee and a chocolate croissant for less than $3 vs the $6-7 I thought I was going to spend. Quickly delivered and delicious as always, of course! Definitely a repeat customer!“

“Great coffee shop for working. There are lots of tables with outlets. I went on a Sunday. There was a handful of students working at other tables but it didn't feel crowded nor loud. I thought the batista was patient and kind. Parking was the main negative. Not a lot of free parking nearby which makes the $7 coffee even more hilariously out of budget.“

“The food and coffee is so yummy and the workers are always kind! We love this place!“

“Super fun location and great coffee. Fun for the whole fam!!“

“This is a place you’ll get hooked on. From the Waygu burger, Salmon Sandwich to their baked goods. I bought a brioche loaf and made the most amazing French toast from it. Very worth a visit for breakfast and lunch!“

“I placed a mobile order in the parking lot, they perfectly nailed my drink on the first go, and it was done before I even walked in. Also lots of indoor and outdoor tables, good for groups of 4 or less. The layout is also very straightforward and it's easy to peruse the merchandise, the mobile orders ready to go, and the available seating as soon as you walk in.“

“My favorite coffee place and Qamaria location of them all. The atmosphere and environment is very welcoming every time I come in. Avaya and Stefa are always sweet and nice young ladies when taking my order. I love the Adeni Tea, Rada’a Coffee, and Samosa.“

“Coffee has always been mine and my significant other's go to on the weekend morning's so we've covered a lot of them in the area but this is one of the best! I asked ahead of time if they could help with my proposal and they went above and beyond to make it a perfect morning this past weekend! Capped off with some champagne, the coffee flight and food is amazing! Each coffee in the flight is delicious, but even better is they give you a good size of each. If you want to do something special or just looking for a good option to grab food or coffee, this place hits the spot. Staff are also super friendly! Would highly recommend checking out!“

“I needed a great cup of coffee on a cold rainy afternoon & stopped into Caribou where I know the coffee is always perfect. Never a disappointment. Greeted with a smile and fun time guessing the trivia question of the day. Always wonderful at caribou!“

“I've been an enthusiastic fan of this incredible business from day one, and I can’t shout their praises loudly enough! The customer service is absolutely top-notch—everyone is super friendly and greets you with the brightest smiles. And let’s talk about the products—wow, they are truly in a league of their own! 🤩🤩 Let’s dive into the mango tres leches cake—it's like a slice of heaven! Sooo DELICIOUS! And the strawberry Dubai chocolate cup? Each bite bursts with freshness and an unbeatable balance of flavors! You can absolutely feel the passion they pour into every creation. I’m on a mission to try all their mojitos, and let me tell you, the strawberry lemon one has stolen my heart! 🍓❤️ Every time I swing by, the line is practically out the door (and I’m not kidding!), but trust me when I say it is worth every single second of the wait! Don’t wait—rush over there and treat yourself to some amazingness! You absolutely won’t regret it! 🍰✨“

“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!“
