We are on an adventure to go to as many boba tea places or bakeries as possible! This was on the…read moreway running errands and decided to check it out. There is a small parking lot on the side of the building and they had a cute sign out front. They are located on a somewhat busy street, so this could make or break some of their business. Ambiance: Inside was huge! This would be a great place to meet with a small group as they have different areas inside to sit and converse. It wasn't very busy when we were there but it was around 1 on a Tuesday. They have a bakery, ice cream counter and boba. They had a bakery case that looked really tasty, so we decided to get 3 items to share. - Lemon macaron - perfection and had a gooey chewiness. We could eat a ton of these. - Eclair - I don't think I've ever had an eclair and now I am questioning why! It was chilled and the perfect amount of filling to outside pastry. The chocolate falls off when you bite it, so eat over a napkin to not lose any pieces. - Chocolate croissant or pastry. I think it was Nutella and it was incredible! Flakey, gooey and everything you'd want it to be. I'm sure you could warm it up and it would elevate it further. Yum! We both got a fruit tea and it was a lot. Sadly, I wouldn't get again as it was too sweet and my boba tasted like ramen noodles. (It actually made me hungry for ramen). My teen got the strawberry milk tea and even said it was sickly sweet and she needed the ice to sit. Overall, I didn't love the boba... but I would recommend the pastry! They also had some decadent looking muffins and cake slices. If in the neighborhood, stop in! I think they should make a Macaron ice cream sandwich! The woman that helped us was so sweet and patient while we took forever to decide what we wanted.

What I Ordered: *Chocolate Cheesecake - 10/10....This was absolutely DEVINE! Do not pass this up! Very rich with 3 layers but pairs great with Coffee. Hard fudge like top, Chocolate Cheesecake Mousse type middle with I believe Oreo cookie base. *Chocolate Croissant & Strawberry/Cream Cheese Croissant - 8/10...Great Flavor & tasted very fresh. *Eclair - 8/10....Typical Eclair Flavor. Wish it was a little bigger Large interior with plenty of seating. Come support your neighborhood bakery & check it out.

Met up with a friend to go over some work related things at Momo Cafe a few months ago and had a…read moregreat experience. We went late on a weekend morning and the place was packed. Momo Cafe is owned by the same family who own my favorite sushi restaurants: Momo Sushi in NE and AMA Sushi in Edina. This place was PACKED. We waited in a line to order that stretched all the way to the entrance of the quaint building. The vibe inside is quite cool but it is crowded so you might have to wait for someone to leave to grab a spot. We ended up only sticking around long enough to finish our food and then left to work somewhere else - it just was a bit too crowded for us to be productive and we didn't want to hog up space for other customers. I was pretty hungry while I was there so I ordered some meat momos. It took quite a bit of time for them to come out as they are made fresh, but they were delicious: incredibly savory and so fragrant. My recommendation is lean very far forward when eating these, one popped open while I was eating it and leaked all over me. Overall, great cafe and a good spot to grab a bite at too.

What a great experience!…read more The cafe is very nice and spacious! Lots of places to work or mingle. The black sesame latte with almond milk was amazing! Didn't try the food but nice to know they have some veggie options. Easy to find and great service - totally worth the trek to enjoy!

They serve Somali tea, coffee, and a variety of sweets and treats. Service was helpful at the counter, but not especially quick for food/drink service. They do crepes specifically, so we had to get one! It came rolled up which was delish, with cookie butter and Biscoff cookie topping. We got the Somali tea and coffee, and it was delish but quite sweet - I'll ask for less sugar next time. The star was the Nafaqo: hard boiled egg inside a seasoned potato patty - our first time trying it and so good! Hearty and filling.

Stopped here on a day off with my mom. It had been on my list for a while to check it out. They had…read morea pretty simple menu. The pastries and food looked good but we did not partake. I ordered a strawberry matcha which was good. They do use a thicker strawberry jam but I don't mind it personally. My mom got the Somali coffee and enjoyed it. Service was a bit slow, we waited a little over 15 minutes for our drinks. It's pretty cozy, there were a bit of people there working, meeting or just enjoying coffee. Parking in this area is interesting. If you can't find a street spot (which is likely) there a ramp across the street (about 1/2 block walk).

Probably not the ideal hang out spots for groups but more so 2-3 ppl max group. Seating is tight but always able to find somewhere to sit. The Brown Sugar Banana Latte is my favorite, I almost always get that. I have tried the Blueberry Hill Iced Tea as well, which was good. My mom didn't care for the tea but she's not a tea drinker generally but she loved the Latte though and talks about it all the time now. Looking forward to stopping by again!

Street parking available outside, which we didn't struggle to find a spot! The space is quaint and casual, littered with remote workers, friends catching up, and solo sippers during our visit! Seating for small and medium sized groups, and it appeared there were larger meeting rooms in the back of the space. The baristas were very busy slinging espresso shots but were friendly and didn't take shortcuts on our drinks during the busy Saturday morning rush, which is always appreciated. I enjoyed that they had inventive and unique seasonal drinks available! I ended up with the Bourbon Salted Caramel Latte, which was absolutely delicious! The black salt sprinkled on top was perfection! The Andes mint on the side was a lovely finishing touch! The perfect way to start my below zero weekend in Minneapolis!

We went to Yellowbird on a Monday morning around 11:15. There is a large seating area which was…read moreabout half full, so it is a popular place - and I can see why! Good lighting and not too loud. They have all of the usual coffee options as well as several of their own concoctions. They have pastries as well as more hearty options like breakfast burritos, although when we went they were out of burritos, probably because we were there so late. They have several gluten free items, and vegan items. It looks like everything that can be sourced locally is local, and they have the providers listed on the menu. They are obviously very socially and environmentally conscious. The servers were very friendly. I had a cold press with cream which was excellent, exactly what I hoped it would be, good coffee flavor. Next time I would probably ask for less cream, but it is real cream. I also had the morning bun which was very good. It was like a cinnamon roll that was also rolled in cinnamon and sugar on the outside. My partner had a red eye which was dark roast and espresso with cream. He liked it very much. He also had a ham and cheese croissant and an apple fritter, both of which were very good. Parking is street parking which wasn't a problem when we were there but may be a problem at busier times. The interior is handicapped friendly, but again parking could be an issue. We loved it and will definitely be back.

I had a hard time selecting a place to sit since I wanted to sit in many of the places. The staff was amazing! I ordered a cortado for here, and it was perfect and gorgeous. I ended up spilling it all over the floor (totally my fault). I went up to order a new one (planning to pay because again..my fault!) and the staff refused to let me pay and even brought me my new drink to the table I was at. Talk about customer service! It was my fault I spilled it and they would not let me help clean it up or buy a new one. Consider me a fan of this place!

***WORST COFFEE ON PLANET EARTH***…read more This review is only on their coffee, not the donuts (donuts are made by cardigan donuts), only just the really bad coffee. When you read about their coffee, they talk a lot about how their coffee is high on acidity, etc.. I don't think... that's not what makes their coffee really bad. Here is an example of why I think their coffee tastes such like crap. Just imagine making the Intenso (highest Nespresso, strength of coffee) coffee pod of Nespresso, that strong really bold very flavorful coffee taste. You'll get a dark rich color. Imagine RE-using that Nespresso coffee pod and brewing yourself another cup with it.... That's what FRGMT coffee tastes like.... Super watered down very acidic flavor that absolute crap coffee lack of any robust flavor. It just makes you think that you just got a watered down version of an espresso / coffee pod by brewing it again from a reused coffee pod, that's how this place makes you feel ... basically absolute crap taste. I've never had coffee this bad in my entire life, so that's why I think the coffee here is the worst coffee on the planet. Nobody wants to wake up in the morning and feel like a reused coffee pod. It makes you wonder what did they do with the first brew of the coffee lol. It literally tastes like they reuse the coffee grounds and you would therefore get that watered down coffee taste. Their coffee grounds that they use here should be investigated lol. No matter how you want to describe what this coffee is supposed to taste like or whatever the acidity description is on their website... it's basically crap coffee. Don't be fooled by their acidity in their coffee or whatever excuses they try to use bcuz it just tastes like basically watered down double filtered very watered down coffee. They charge the same expensive prices like anywhere else, but here you would get the watered down version that tastes like reused coffee grounds... ICK. Absolutely horrible, horrible type of coffee. It is almost as if they're using coffee grounds that have already been used before like they have already been processed before... very rancid coffee almost if that even is such a thing. Not to mention the people that work here act like and look like they hate their job and they just can't wait to go home. Never seen one person smile back there. Is it bcuz they know the coffee is bad?! Especially, being in a gorgeous open space of a lobby it makes you think different thoughts about what you're walking into, getting coffee service by extremely unhappy crabby folks. Very bad coffee but very good donuts and they don't even make their own donuts. This place wouldn't even exist without the cardigan donuts let's just say that. They also have their own merch lol. Bcuz customers want to wear their brand of really horrible coffee?! I am a local to SpyHouse & Dunn Bros for decades so my coffee palate I would say can debunk this place correctly lol. Even at Rise Bagel (a bagel place known for bagels!) does better coffee than here.
