Got here about 9 a.m. on a Friday. There were already plenty of people inside. There is merchandise on shelves that is available to purchase. Got a friendly greeting from the barista, who helped me place my order for a London Fog Tea Latte. I saw that they had a Northeast Fog on the menu (with coriander and fennel), but I got my usual with lavender, vanilla, and extra foam. I also ordered an Almond Croissant.
It took a few minutes (because they took their time with a good steep). The London Fog was very good, the right temperature and a nice creamy layer of foam. The Almond Croissant was nothing short of amazing. Along with the vanilla paste, they added extra toasted almonds inside. So yummy.
Some of the areas (including the bathroom) could use some TLC. But overall, it was a very good experience. Definitely would come back again.
Parking can be tricky since it’s on a busy stretch of Lyndale, but there is street parking all around if you’re willing to look a bit. Inside, there are plenty of small tables, which makes it a good spot for working or casual meetups. That said, the space does feel a little run down in places, especially the bathrooms.
Service is hit or miss. The baristas are efficient, but they’re not especially warm or welcoming and don’t really give off that friendly neighborhood cafe vibe.
The drinks, however, are really good and are the main reason I keep coming back. They have a strong lineup of specialty lattes, and these are my favorites:
Kingfield: vanilla, coriander, and black sea salt
Pollinator: honey, lavender, and cardamom
Busy Beaver: maple and cinnamon with molasses and black pepper
Very creative, well balanced, and consistently well made.
Overall, great drinks and a cool local atmosphere, but the service and upkeep could use some improvement. Still a solid spot if you’re meeting friends or want a unique latte.
Coffee here is excellent—rich with smooth, nutty tones. My go-to while I was in town was the “Shot in the Nutts”—fun name and a great drink. Just a heads-up: they don’t offer many pastries, so it’s more of a coffee stop than a full café experience. Still, definitely worth it for the quality brew.
The WiFi was down that day unfortunately, so that made it tough to work there. But the pollinator latte was delicious and had a strong espresso flavor.
The vibe inside was laidback and cozy, they were open later which was a huge plus since I came in from out of town, and the barista was FANTASTIC. I never got their name but they were so kind and made me feel like they wanted to talk to me. If I lived in the area this would definitely be a regular haunt for me.
Thanks for a cozy afternoon!!
