“I like the store, friendly staff/store Lead(Val S.) convenient location, and plenty of parking spots, each time after shopping(or before) at nearby HomeDepot, Costco(&gas), or PetSmart, I'd stop by to grab a favor Hazelnut-coffee or entertain my kids with some healthy Goddness/Egg salad or hot-soup or sometime being lucky e.g. earlier enough to get bacon-Soufflé(just Yum!!)“

“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!“

“Amazing food in a comfortable setting with great service.“

“This place is such a cozy little gem! My new favorite spot! The vibe is calm and welcoming, with plenty of light and comfy seating. Great for studying, catching up with a friend, or just enjoying some solo chill time.

I ordered the ube latte, and I’m obsessed! It’s smooth, creamy, and the ube flavor is just the right amount, not too sweet like any other American drink (lol), but still super flavorful. Definitely a drink I’ll be coming back for! 💜 but definitely will try others!

Also tried their croissant and one of their coffee-flavored breads (I forgot the exact name, but it was sooo good). The croissant was buttery and flaky, just how it should be. And the coffee bread had a soft texture with a subtle sweet coffee flavor, perfect pairing with a warm drink!

Can’t wait to go back and try more drinks and pastries. This place is such a vibe!“

“This place is an absolute gem! The food was fantastic, with great vegetarian options. But the real standout was the service—welcoming, warm, and full of genuine smiles. Cadence, the lovely server with a radiant smile truly made the cold winter feel like summer. A beautiful soul and beautiful service—I’ll definitely be back!“

“SO GOOD!!! the first time i ordered, i was HOOKED. the soup and sandwiches are DELICIOUS. and i cant seem to skip the banana pudding EVER. Im officially addicted to Sammy's.“

“What an amazing staple to the Hopkins community. Mocha and pumpkin butter coffee are a must try. This place support local artists and business as well. prices are more better than most corporations so choose to shop small and support this local Hopkins jem.“

“Really good menu, lovely staff. An excellent place to enjoy coffee and a book there is a fire pit as well“

“Great food. Great atmosphere. Great people. Hilltop is a gem of a little restaurant in our SSP/IGH community and Chef Negusse is wonderful!“

“great coffee, great service, the club sandwich is amazing.... will come back often...“

“Welcoming & a Vibe. This is a real gem, a diamond in the rough. There is no place quite like Cafetto. It is punk, it is cozy, it is filled with music but it’s peaceful at the same time. The staff are always friendly, knowledgeable, and apt at making the perfect cup of joe or chai of choice. If you need a place to vibe, work, or have some fun (especially with the plethora of pinball machines in the basement), this is the place to be. I just wish there was a location in St. Cloud, but to me this place alone is worth the drive!“

“My favorite vanilla latte in town. And you can’t beat the entertainment watching traffic. 😂“

“Ate dinner here on recommendation of a friend. Great food, served fresh, hot and fast. Had the spaghetti and garlic toast special. Was delicious. Huge serving also. Hubby had the grilled ham and cheese and subbed onion rings for the chips. Another winner. Had strawberry rhubarb pie for dessert- was really good and hit the spot. Laura was our waitress, attentive and friendly. Will be back!“

“I go to the Bloomington location. Great food and nice staff.“

“Really liked this coffeeshop. The staff are super friendly and the place is clean. I got the almond milk vanilla latte and the blackberry ricotta streusel pain suisse. They were SO delicious! ?
I had a question about the ingredients and one of the baristas went above and beyond to get a hold of the baker to make sure my question is answered.“

“Great little coffee shop! Excellent customer service! We had chai tea latte, a smoothie and pepperoni frybread pizza. All were so delicious!! Migwiich!“

“Excellent staff who know their products and can recommend the right pick me up for you. Really enjoy their Loaded Teas. Definitely need to stop in.“

“This is a great place. The owners are cool and fun to talk to. The baked goods are very high quality and affordable. A lot of other bakeries have stuff that tastes like bland butter mixed with sugar but this place has very good flavor. Not too sweet, high quality ingredients. They also sell food such as sambusas, ful and tibbs which are fresh and tasty! The coffee is good too“

“Absolutely fantastic food, friendly and helpful staff, and overall a wonderful place to enjoy lunch. I had the three sisters kale salad with bison meat. My husband had the fish sandwich along with the potato salad and some bakery items. All were very tasty! We can't wait to come back to try the breakfast menu!“

“Wonderful environment, delightful atmosphere, Delicious food and extremely friendly employees is what greeted me. Definitely will return.“

“Walking distance from Augsburg U, friendly service. When asked what I was eating (I decided to get what a customer got before me), cashier took time tell me about malawah...sweet Somali pancake (warm, sweet delicious!). Coffee nice and strong!“

“The coffee and treats are excellent, great staff, and a lovely space in the atrium to sit for a few.“

“It’s good for what it is. Order at the counter, food brought to table. I ordered a burger and gluten free bun, which was good (a really nice sauce was on it that amped up the flavor). Fries were average. Also purchase a Sanpellegrino soda, total was about $19

Dietary restrictions: Fries in the same cooker with wheat. Not celiac friendly“

“Bambu is my favorite desert place . I was so happy that I found Bambu in Minneapolis. It’s a little far away from my home but I don’t mind to drive . I love all desert and drinks they have. I can eat everyday if I could 😇😂. Also, Sandwiches 🥪 are yummy. All employees are pretty nice and friendly. The only thing I don’t like this place is parking is suck ( I know it’s only in Minneapolis) .“

“Is it me or is there a different vibe when eating at a veg café? Perhaps what I was feeling was the beautiful sunny Sunday morning that greeted everybody in a nice way, or maybe it was just the thought of everyone with similar values enjoying a meal together in the same place. Either way, I had a delightful and slow-paced Sunday morning breakfast at Seward Café. With 27 menu items that are either vegan or can be made vegan upon request (all clearly labeled), you won’t have a hard time finding something enjoyable to eat like I did.

“They have an interesting setup with Brasa next door. More clear signs for the system would be great because we weren’t sure if the seating was combined or how it worked.

I tried the Up South egg sandwich, which was really good. I don’t normally like pimento cheese, but the flavors were amazing together. The lavender latte sadly didn’t have any flavor and I wouldn’t get coffee there again. The annoyed vibes from the staff that day were a little off putting and they forgot half our order for the group.“

“Best egg - cheese - bacon biscuit around. Neighborhood gem❤️“

“A great place for a date in the evening. The place is casual at lunch and then levels up in the evening with white linens. Great French food and wine! Reasonable prices and an awesome friendly staff that certainly hustles and handles a fully booked restaurant quite well! Definitely coming back!“

“The service is always great, food is delicious and fast!“

“very spacious and quick service“

“The food & incredible service was why I chose to celebrate my birthday at Abi’s with my family! Everything was absolutely delicious & our server really made our experience wonderful 🧡“

“Locally owned Columbian cafe. The owner Luis is always around for quality control. Coffee is rich and tasty. Breakfast Americano is fabulous. Arepas y marmelada has delicious fruit compote �“

“Popped in after The Foo Fighters show last night. Staff was phenomenal handling that higher-than-normal Sunday night volume. Was a great place to sit for a bit and have many beers and some great conversation with strangers, as well as with the very nice and efficient bar staff. Thanks for having me.“

“Great place with a chill vibe. Food was awesome, I got BLT and my fiance got salmon bagel. Coffee had a little weird aftertaste so did my fiance said but I didn't mind it. The chairs and tables need some cleaning. We are definitely coming back.“

“Very good food, service, and atmosphere all around had a great 7 am breakfast on a Saturday. Parking was easy at the nearby ramp with a half block walk. The homemade caramel pecan roll (not pictured) was super good!! Great coffee :) Ribeye (6 oz) Benedict was perfect - large portion.“
