The experience at this restaurant is weird. Show up at 11am…read more- you'll have a line out the door. That is understandable, as it's peak brunch time. You talk to the front desk, and they'll tell you there's an hour wait if you don't have a reservation. You look around and see open tables. You think: "that's odd". You check on the website and it says you can get a reservation for 15, 30, and 45 minutes from now. You select a reservation for 15 minutes from now, and magically there isn't an hour wait for you anymore. You note the still open tables and the line not moving. The restaurant is very loud. They're doing late 2010's industrial chic with not a soft surface in site and garage doors, so everybody's conversation bounces around indefinitely. You wait a while for a server to come. I find the way the food looks when it arrives is always different than the way it sounds when you read the menu - sometimes for better, and sometimes for worse. The coffee and bar menu is pretty decent for a brunch place. Prices are on the high end, though some are more reasonable than others. Then you get hit with a 3% credit card fee which isn't adequately disclosed on the menu or when you enter the restaurant.

Absolutely amazing!!!! Just ate Chicken and Waffles with Jalapeño Cream Cheese Maple Syrup…read more WHAT????? Yep!!! So flippin' good!! Ambience = awesome. Service = awesome. Latte was absolutely PERFECTLY made. Temp in the 140s when I got it. Immediately drinkable. As a proper latte should be! Five solid stars!!

Do not recommend this place. Customer service was disappointing…read more When ordering, I specifically asked for a kid-friendly drink recommendation and was given a strawberry fruit tea with popping boba. It ended up tasting extremely bitter--more like strong black tea than anything strawberry. Paying $7 for a drink my kids wouldn't even touch felt like a waste. I went back to ask if they could make it sweeter or offer a different drink. I wasn't asking for a refund, just a chance to have a better experience. They added sweetener but it still tasted very bitter and said their policy doesn't allow to change drinks. To make things worse, staff were speaking to each other in another language right in front of me instead of communicating directly (when they both can speak perfect english), which felt unprofessional. Overall, disappointing experience and not very accommodating to customers.

This is such a hidden gem in a great location. It's a small shop that doesn't have a huge menu but…read moreeverything is delicious. They have a wide variety of drinks and toppings and what makes them special is they offer fresh pressed sugarcane and if you have never had sugarcane I highly recommend, it is a refreshing sweet treat. You will feel like you are on the streets of Asia. They only have cold cut and shredded chicken options for banh mi or you could get the special which has cold cut and shredded chicken which is what I got. There was not a lot of shredded chicken in it but it was a really good banh mi. The flavors were there and the bread was crispy. No complaints. They offered milk substitutes for my friend who is lactose intolerant. Prices are pretty decent here. Banh mi is around $8 which is pretty standard but it's a really good banh mi. Drinks are also around $7-$8 depending on what you get. We went right after tet and we saw they had these cute reusable cups there, they said the promo was over but they gave us these cups for free since we bought enough. There is not much seating here, most people seemed to just pick up to go but our group likes to sit here and talk and it's a nice ambiance for it. I'm hoping if they get more popular they can expand their seating more but it's not necessary. If you are looking for a good banh mi and good boba come here!

Incredible service and gorgeous dog friendly patio! The food and atmosphere is absolutely amazing…read more The pancakes are 5 star and a must try. And normally you wouldn't get excited about oatmeal, but the "banana nut oatmeal"... wow! So delicious!! We were just passing through Minneapolis and happened to go here. So glad we did!! It did not disappoint!

I'm a savory breakfast type-of-person so I ordered eggs Benedict for myself and strawberries cream…read morepancakes for my kids. I fell in love with pancakes. They were moist, had a little bit of saltiness to them (I'm guessing from butter), so good even without syrup. On the other hand tho, the egg Benedict was dreadful. The hollandaise sauce seems to be the problem. Literally tasted like hospital food, 0/10 for the Benedict. I would also switch out the Canadian bacon for better quality. I also wish the waiter had been more lively and attentive. Overall I would come back, literally for the pancakes!!

Stopped by as I was in the area and am a sucker for a good coffee shop! This place was great and…read morehad so much room for finding a spot to sit. Grabbed both a caramel almond latte and an apple pastry. I think I should have tried a breakfast sandwich instead, but that's my bad on realizing just how sweet the apple pastry was. The latte was spot on with what I was hoping for! A big plus is that it had homemade syrups included, which makes such a difference in great coffee shops to stand out as memorable. Great service and great prices. Can't wait to be back again when I'm in the area next!

I always get a cortado every new place I go. It gives me a chance to see how well they make a shot…read moreof espresso.... They under extracted the shot a little. It was on the bitter side, but not horrible. I believe they are serving a Brazil bean and it should have a pronounced nutty/chocolate flavor at this level of roast. If the clicked those grinders down 2 notches it would probably be a much better cup. It's an industrial sort of setting, the staff was neither friendly nor rude. Just very average. The potential is there for it to be a great coffee spot!

The Buzz is a great place to stop by for waffles and more!…read more I first discovered this cafe through a vegan friend - The Buzz has a secondary vegan waffle menu that is full of tasty options, and not limited like many breakfast places are! I have been back numerous times to try their vast menu of waffle choices and coffee. The small cafe is always bustling with visitors on the weekend - if you are looking to dine in, arrive early or be prepared to wait for a seat. I highly recommend for anyone to check out! I have never been disappointed by the quality of food and service. They even have punch cards for frequent visitors!

I've now come into this cafe twice and have had good experiences. Definitely gives off more…read morehometown coffee shop vibes than a lot of the more upscale / clean cut coffee shops more in the cities. I tried both coffee and waffles the most recent time I came and both were tasty. I will say though their waffle menu is quite extensive - dare I say a bit overwhelming. The prices are super reasonable though (especially compared to other local shops). I would highly recommend checking it out to catch up with a friend or just hang out!

Sad to see they switched ownership, I miss the "Buy 10 drinks and get one free" whatever card…read more I really just go there to buy 10 drinks just to get a free drink whenever I'm bored lol

Nice place with great boba drinks! They sell little accessories and have costumes you can try on…read moreand take pictures for free! I didn't get to try their rolled ice cream but did get to try their original bubble waffles. It's not as crispy as I would like compared to a few other places I've tried, not sure if it's because it wasn't fully cooked or what? I would definitely go back for drinks though!! This place is VERY spacious so it's a great hangout spot.

An anniversary weekend getaway means dessert, and for us, that means a trip to Waffle Bar! It's one…read moreof our favorite spots, and no matter how many times we go, we still get excited like kids in a candy store. This time (and every other time), I treated myself to the Strawberry Dream--a heavenly combo of fluffy waffles, fresh strawberries, and the perfect drizzle of sweetness. Hubby went for the PB Love, which was pure peanut butter bliss! Every bite was chef's kiss perfection. If you haven't been to Waffle Bar yet, what are you waiting for? It's a must-try for anyone with a sweet tooth!

Waffle bar is a small place in an uptown that doesn't have a lot is seating but good ice cream…read more Located right in Lyndale across from the world street kitchen, it has a small parking lot and a few tables inside to have your ice cream. The first thing you notice is the smell of fresh waffles. And it's lovely. They have a selection of different creations and specials that you can order from. And if you are not in the mood for nice cream, they also have some interesting drinks you can try like bubble tea and smoothies. But try the ice cream. The ice cream is creamy and delicious and the creations, while not cheap, are very tasty. The staff is friendly and helpful and will assist you if you have questions or not able to decide. We like this place for a sweet treat or a special celebration.

Ambiance 5/5 Food 5/5 Service 5/5 Value 4/5 I had the Southwest Steak Salad and would gladly order it again next time. The mixed greens were fresh and crispy and the dressing was light and citrus-forward. I was eyeing the caramel rolls for dessert, but ran out of stomach space. Reservations recommended. Parking was free, easy and plentiful.

Well here's how it went: We ordered the food came and the waitress didn't stop by once to see how our meal was. My eggs were runny and I had to get her attention in order to ask her to please get me eggs over medium. I received the eggs and she didn't come to the table to follow up. I needed water and I had to call to another waitress and asked her if she could get me water. The young lady was polite however not following up with the customer is not a good thing. The ambiance is never the problem it is the service.
