The apple pop tart was nice and fluffy, too! The area is really cool to check out! There's a book store and art shop in the building, which makes for a fun coffee date! My only complaint is minor, but the barista taking out orders seemed very closed off and potentially frustrated that we were there. But maybe they were having a rough day?

FRGMNT is always a vibe but PLEASE get better matcha!! :(…read more I like the fresh, airy, and warm vibe this location brings. And the fact it's in a bookstore makes it feel more artsy. Usually, I hate sitting at a bar, especially when I'm working, but the seats here are ELITE!

I've been to Darling a few times but never felt the need to write a review. My most recent visit…read morewas exceptional. It was a busy almost upscale brunch but there plenty of seating in this neighborhood breakfast spot. Countertop ordering but then they bring it out and refill coffee, etc. The corned beef hash had a somewhat spicy glaze that perfect zip for me, and the goat cheese salmon scramble was a good combo too. I'll be back.

I would have to say borderline 4, but not ready to love it yet. The space is nice and located right…read morein a residential area so it would very nice if a person lived right by it to walk across the street. I didn't know breakfast was counter service, but since we were there pretty early there was no wait. We both ordered The Beverly (Two eggs, bacon, bread and potatoes). Potatoes were okay- no flavor unless you dipped it in the mustard. Bread was tasty and the jam was okay- not sure what type of jam it was, but it wasn't the standard. A little pricey for what we ordered- standard breakfast fare, jam with a flare. Service was okay- didn't have a ton of interaction. Water station was fairly warm water. Would possibly give it another try. Nice place to catch up with a friend.

Meanwhile the staff greets you with a kind smile that makes you feel welcomed in. I had the Ube Latte and the mixed Momo platter. The Ube Latte is well balanced between sweet Ube flavor and coffee and cream. The mixed momo platter comes with meat filled and potato filled dumplings that come with a spicy sauce for dipping. They are perfectly plump, warm and delicious and lend themselves well to a cold day. Absolutely recommend this hidden neighborhood gem if you're in the area (or even if you're not! It's worth it!)

While out running errands, stopped by Momo coffee for a quick snack and drink. It was pretty busy…read morebut also super cute and well decorated with nostalgic and cultural elements. They had a few cute items for sale, like momo merch, stickers and more. I got the black sesame latte which was strong but good. We also ordered potato and chive momos and they were decent. I think it could have used a bit more flavor, a bit starchy tasting. But the soy sauce helps a tiny bit. Would for sure come back to check out more. I was a bit shocked that they had to put signs on some of the lower tables for people to not put their feet on them. In a cafe/food establishment that should be common sense but I definitely get it. As it was busy it was a bit loud but I really like the vibes and aesthetic of this cafe!

Lots of seating, the main area is super cute with ambient lighting & then there's an additional seating area (where I was sitting in my pic) that's really bright! I always love looking at coffee shop match too & they had some cute options! Overall, good coffee, kind staff & cute shop!

I must admit Up Cafe has me stumped for a rating. I went with 4 because half of it was a 3 to me…read moreand the other part a 5. I came here on a Saturday late morning with my family because I heard they were a no frills good roaster kind of shop. And the ambiance meets that a bit. Not too fancy but plenty of seating with a nice amount available outside. Nothing that I noticed in the way of more relaxed seating. Now the important stuff the regular old coffee. I had an Americano and my wife a cold brew. Both were average I'd even say my Americano was in the poor end. Now that being said they sell a lot of different varieties of beans. I found an Ethiopian light roast that I am partial too and brought it home. These beans were great. So all that said bottom line they sell 5 star beans. I just don't find them in the drinks we ordered while we were there.

There wasn't anything I didn't like except dessert was not included in our meal so for extra $ we did split one and was delicious They did send me home with some mini coconut macaroons which was a nice touch Ambiance - was lovely sitting at the counter, restaurant was full but not crazy loud for a Saturday night!

It is very good. It may not be outstanding, hence the 4 stars…read more This is a review specifically for the restaurant side, and you're going to have to sort the cafe/hotel/restaurant ones. A lot was on point. They had super interesting wines by the glass, the appetizers were outstanding, my duck breast was served with a perfectly smoky pepper reduction, and it was fun watching the open kitchen. We also appreciated the creativity of the uni spaghetti we were served. They do a no tipping/hospitality included model, which is nice to know what you're getting. But also, a lot was a bit off. Water took 10 minutes to get even when all the waiters were waiting for the kitchen to plate the next course. Cocktails were uninspired, basically just the flavors of the classics but with extra price. Dessert was additional, and honestly I think if you're going to do a prix fixe (which I love), do it as appetizer-main-dessert. Said uni spaghetti was creative, but lacking in balance, especially compared to the pear-nduja bruschetta (lovely) and said duck breast. I walked out feeling not unhappy, but not anywhere near one of my best experiences.

When me and my mom stopped in the line was pretty much to the door and moved a bit slow as you can't really view the menu until you are closer. We ordered regular coffee, which was good. Our drinks were automatically put in to go cups. The staff were nice and worked hard to get orders out. We decided to find seats and stay for a bit. It was pretty lively the whole time we were there.

It's a huge building with tall…read moreceilings and lots of different seating areas, so it's easy to find a spot to work or hang out. The furniture setup is really cool and gives you a mix of cozy corners and more open tables. Prices are definitely premium, and the coffee itself is fine but not amazing. The menu is pretty limited, so don't expect a lot of specialty options. Parking is also very limited and paid, which is frustrating if you're trying to pop in quickly. The staff are really friendly though, and the vibe of the space makes it a fun place to spend time if you don't mind the cost.

I am not usually a coffee drinker, but this place has great lattes. So smooth and not too sweet, which I love! I wish they had a medium-sized drink as their small is too small, and the larger one is a bit too big. I've always gotten the bigger size and ended up finishing it throughout the day!! My favorites - chai latte, spygirl (lavender/honey latte), solid gold (turmeric latte). Still have a few others that I want to try while I am still in MN. Definitely going to miss this spot when I go back home!

The lobby itself is very stylish, with big dark bookshelves, large plants, big fireplace, cozy and comfortable seating, tables, a pool table, etc. When we visited it was decorated for Christmas and that alone was worth the visit! The coffee was delicious and service good. My husband and I both ordered the seasonal "Shakespeare's Fool" which was delicious in decaf and regular. The latte art on top was a plus! The only downside or thing to know is that this location will not accept Spyhouse giftcards because it is part of the hotel. I came wanting to use one, so this was a bummer but I understand and the barista was very apologetic. As a side note about the business, it's impossible to check your giftcard balance online. So while I'd like to use my giftcard, I'm unsure if I will realistically be able to soon!

They make some delicious vegan food (both super healthy dishes like hummus and veggies & rice, as well as some more indulgent dishes like biscuits and gravy). Their vegan pastries and deserts are TO DIE FOR, especially the peanut butter cups. The inside is very "80's coffee house" vibes. They have board games to play and there are even events from time to time. My one issue is that the bathrooms need a little bit of TLC. Otherwise, this place is great.

I ordered the Vegan Bahn Mi it is so freaking good, I wish I had time to stop in again.

I'm not sure if I reviewed Honour Coffee after my first visit, but I have to now -- because wow…read more The first time I stopped in, I tried their cold brew with homemade lavender simple syrup, and it was amazing. Smooth, refreshing, and just the right touch of floral. That alone was enough to impress me, but what really got me back in the door? The chocolate chip cookie I didn't grab the first time around. You guys! Let me say this with all the excitement I can put into words: this is the best chocolate chip cookie I've ever had. Seriously. Thick, with crispy edges and a soft, gooey center -- every bite was perfect. I'm still thinking about it. I also picked up a cheddar frittata to take home, and the staff gave me simple instructions on how to reheat it -- it turned out great. Shoutout to Annette, who was so friendly and made my morning visit even better. I left with a huge smile thanks to the great customer service. I even got to meet the owners on my first visit, and they were just as warm and welcoming. Honour Coffee is the kind of place you want to keep all to yourself, but it's too good not to share. I'll keep recommending it to friends and coming back to enjoy their thoughtful menu, cozy vibe, and amazing people. This place is truly something special.
