    Brianna R.

    I kicked off my trip to the infamous Mall of America by getting a cup of Caribou Coffee. Specially, I ordered a medium iced caramel high rise. Ughhhh, it was delicious. Can we please get Caribou locations in Nevada? Autumn took my order and was super sweet and patient with me, as it was a bit hard to hear each other through muffled mask speak and dividers. My drink came out reasonably quickly, especially since this location was so busy. I hope I'll be able to stop at another Caribou location before heading home!

    A gross drink

    I walked into this establishment and was beyond disgusted by what I experienced. First off the floor was a lubricated mess. The lady in front of me slipped with her baby. What a place. I get my order taken and the barista doesn't even know the drink we ordered and did not know what the reward system was of the place she works at. Talk about unbelievable. Then the barista proceeded to tell me that the drinks I ordered were sold out even after I payed. So, I gave him two alternatives and he comes back a second time to tell me THEY WERE OUT OF THAT FLAVOR TOO. Who am I if not a reasonable person. Then the drinks come and they were not up to expectations even after all of the turmoil I had to go through to get them. Keep in mind the barista looked like a child with a bad haircut. I walked away knowing I will never return to this heinous place.

    Locally roasted coffee beans! Makes the perfect cup of coffee!

    I love caribou coffee. We used to have several locations in chicago but for some reason they left the chicago market! I miss this place so I frequent them when I am in MN or WI. I don't drink sugary drinks anymore but I love the option of white chocolate, milk chocolate or dark chocolate. If you want to indulge try the campfire mocha! Today I had a coffee made with locally roasted beans! I may have to bring some back home with me.

    Caribou has gone from my A list to no better than C over the past few years. I am a mocha guy, and the conversion to how picking what kind of chocolate you want is producing a sub par mocha. Blech. I frequent this location at the MOA as kid #1 usually needs some sort of reward by the time we're at this point of or shopping trip (or it has been the carrot to garner patience). Staff are okay, its fine, I guess. But "meh" says it well.

    This is apparently a cappuccino - more like a half filled cup of Americano

    We ordered a Small Cappuccino with an extra shot, and the guy charged us about $8. I told him that it couldn't be that much (pointing at the board above him). He grunted a few unintelligible words and walked away from the cash register. I didn't have the energy to argue with him and left it alone. I walked over to pick up my drink and the guy handed me 2 small cappuccinos as he called it. What I got was absolutely not a cappuccino (see photo) and it was at best an Americano that filled half my cup. Asked the guy for an actual cappuccino with an extra shot like I originally ordered and he just shrugged and said, "well there's two here". Awful! Absolutely awful

    Stood in long line only to be told I couldn't have the medium/dark roast advertised on the board because "they were out." The staff person offered me the light roast, turned to the urn, and turned back to tell me it would be two-three minutes as he had to make it. I waited and got the first pourings as the machine started to make the coffee. I sat down to connect to the internet and found the signal strength wasn't strong enough to connect to my bank website or my email. I then took my first sips and discovered I had a medium cup of bad coffee that tested weird like some one had poured off the first run the grounds from an urn percolator which is of course what the "barista" did.

    Staff was great. First time here, although have enjoyed their coffee in my Krups. I like mochas - hot, iced, freddo'd. What was great about Caribou's is the choice of chocolate in your coffee. Way cool.

    Hot or cold it it's all good at Caribou.

    Caribou Coffee has always been one of my favorites. Nice atmosphere, good strong coffee, great selection of flavors and styles. The fact that it is in the Mall of America makes it even better.

    This coffee was vile. It tasted like burnt tobacco. Five sugars added and it was still undrinkable. I had to ask for my money back.

    This was my first time at a Capital One Café, and I really love the experience!…read more Being a Capital One credit card holder I get half off on drinks and personalized banking here. At this location, I was given a nice little drawstring bag and bag of popcorn for being a member . I still have the bag and use it constantly during my travels, which is nice ! I love going to Capital One cafés and checking them out when I'm traveling !

    I had no idea we had a Capital One Cafe in MOA until I walked past this recently! I had to stop in…read moreand see what it was like. I've been into one other Capital One Cafe before, so I knew that as a cardholder, I got 50% off any drinks. Not a bad deal, especially if you're looking for a bev or somewhere to hang for a bit in MOA. SERVICE The staff at the front are very cheery and welcoming and immediately begin asking if you've been before, if you have a card, etc. They directed me to the counter to order. During my visit, the staff member at the counter was quite the opposite of energy from the front staff. They were quite backed up with a few other people's orders in front of me, and it took ~10 minutes for me to get my drink. COST I was surprised that my small matcha with oat milk and a half pump of sweetener came up to $10, so I ended up still spending $5. DRINKS They have some nice drink options, but unfortunately were out of a few of their seasonal menu items, so I opted for a matcha latte. Note that they do not sweeten their matcha so you'll need to add a pump of sweetener if you prefer that. SPACE The space is the big win here! Lots of tables, and even a few nooks that can be booked by cardholders. It was very clean and comfortable, well designed, and a great place to work for a bit or hang out. Not too loud, and plenty of seating available on a Friday. This is a good option to get a reduced-cost drink if you're a cardholder while you're MOA shopping!

First things first--the vibe is chef's kiss if you're into cozy, low-key, intentional spaces. It's quaint without trying too hard, and it doesn't have that loud, chaotic coffee shop energy. I was actually able to focus, which says a lot. Now what really sets this place apart? It's tucked inside Zawadi Center, and that matters. This isn't just a grab-your-drink-and-go type of café. You're surrounded by culture, community, and a space that feels like it means something. Between the event space, the restaurant, and the overall energy, it feels layered... like you accidentally found a hidden gem that locals want to keep to themselves. The refresher? Solid. Did what it needed to do. No complaints there. If I had to give a little Yelp Elite honesty: seating can be a bit limited depending on timing, and if you're someone who needs complete silence, this might not be your spot when it gets busier. It's more "focused but alive" than "library quiet." Overall, this is the kind of place you come to reset, get a little inspired, and maybe romanticize your life for a couple hours. Will I be back? Absolutely.

    Yummy! The drinks are always good here. I got the Matcha today…read more Service is usually slow-because they usually have one person staffed. You also usually have to be overly nice and funny to get a smile out them. It's a well spread out dining area. Usually frequented by working professionals and not families-which is why I enjoy it.

Being at Mall of America, you are never terribly far from a Caribou Coffee. There are six of them. The problem? Trying to figure out which one to check in to on the Yelp app is super confusing. My second check-in attempt was correct. Yay! This cafe is steps away from Radisson Blu Hotel, which is connected to the mall. I would find it both cool and deadly to roll out of bed in the morning and head over to this Caribou Coffee. It's also next to J. Jill, by Nickelodeon Universe. If you spot any one of these three places, you're near this cafe. The downside of this cafe is that it closes at 3 pm on weekdays and 4 pm on weekends. Considering that the stores at this mall tend to stay open between 7 and 9 pm, cutting it short so early is a concern. There was a lineup when I got to this cafe. I stood in line. It did move relatively quickly. I got a friendly woman at the counter. She took down my phone number associated with my perks points. I then ordered a large sparkling peach black tea. I paid with a credit card. I also tipped. Done! As I waited for my drink, I browsed around. I liked the drinkware and mugs at this store. There were plenty of snacks that looked yummy and intriguing. My drink didn't take long to be prepared. I thanked the woman when I got my drink in a Christmas-themed cup and looked for a place to sit. I oddly didn't feel cozy sitting on padded stools without any back support. Instead, there were comfy couch chairs in front of this store, so I sat there and enjoyed my drink. I loved my drink. It was perfect and fizzy. I actually sat in this cozy chair for an hour, casually sipping on my drink and figuring out which stores to shop at next. My experience was positive at this cafe. I'd return whenever I'm on the second floor and in this part of the mall. (469)
