Stopped into corner coffee for the first time with friend visiting from out of state before we walked the lake. I have heard great things about their coffee and was excited to try and wasn't disappointed. They had seasonal options which are always so fun to try. My friend and I both did a hot Nordic latte which was perfectly sweet. Another friend ordered a drip coffee which he said had a wonderful flavor and smoothness. Even better was the barista pulled out a huge bone for my dog - so an auto win in my book! Can't beat that service :) The photo wall of pets was also awesome. There is tons of seating inside and it gives cozy coffee shop vibes. I will be back! read more

Corner Coffee is not usually somewhere we go because their flavors aren't my taste. Not saying they're bad, just not my speed. However, my boyfriend and I have been getting into matcha lately so we've been trying out all of our old spots again! Corner Coffee is a cute space with a friendly staff! They sell things from small artists which I love. Definitely somewhere you could sit and work! I'm not a matcha expert but we really enjoyed this one! We thought it could've had a slightly stronger matcha flavor but it was pretty well balanced. I would definitely come and get another one soon! Also we love whatever milk they use for strawberry milk read more

I have been there many times now and the microaggressional racism masquerading as snarkiness needs to be put on alert. I have literally experienced walking into the place and being treated like they're doing me a favor while watching white people walk in and be treated friendly being treated with respect and even having their drinks brought out to them. Today I went there ordered a drink and they acted like they couldn't even be bothered with preparing the register to take my debit card then after ringing my debit card up they say to me do you want to use your $5 off I say yes but then of course because the charges already went through it didn't count and so I asked hey will this be credited or something and he didn't even look at me and just said oh yeah. I'm not holding my breath so a $2 drink that I was supposed to get at that price because I had apparently worked up credit at the cafe was a standard $7. You know just because somebody's got blue or purple hair behind the counter does not mean that they are an ally. Clearly I've gone there enough times to build up credit so I think I've been there enough to warrant an opinion and make a final judgment call and that call is I won't be back anytime soon. I should have stopped going there a few visits ago when I looked at the menu and asked the question hey so tell me a little bit more about this drink and their reply, it sounds exactly like what it sounds like and then when I looked up at them to let them know that if we were in any other circumstance I might have cussed them the f*** out then to cover it up with snarkiness they said to me it sounds delicious. Like I said I usually try to give places the benefit of the doubt I think I've given this place plenty and I won't be back. Non-white people don't have to come to your Cafe and maybe I should use my platform and follow to alert as many people as possible to the fact that they shouldn't go either... read more

Plenty of paid street parking! The coffee and service were great. First Americana we have gotten that did not seem to watered down! The barista's were really great even explaining the process of latte art. read more

I always judge a coffee shop by one question: would I spend a whole rainy day there? This one definitely passes the test!! Street parking in front of the entrance OR lot parking off of Hennepin Ave! The space itself is a vibe...plants, borderline industrial, and plenty of different seating options! Service was super friendly! I almost exclusively order signature lattes at new establishments and Corner Coffee's Gingerbread Latte did not disappoint! Perfect post-holiday flavor and a lovely way to kickstart my Monday!! read more

I ordered a 12oz iced s'mores latte with oat milk which was $8.50 (the oat milk was a dollar extra) and a Asiago bagel with plain cream cheese for $4.00, they were both delicious. The latte was creamy and tasted like graham cracker and chocolate, there were mini marshmallows on top. The bagel was served toasted and came with a lot of cream cheese. The space is good for doing work because there are plenty of outlets against the walls. There is easy, free parking on the street. read more

Such a cute little coffee shop in Minneapolis! I came here to study for a couple hours with my friend. I got the iced vanilla latte and loved it!

Cozy bustling coffee shop. There were lots of people in the sitting area working on computers. They have a small selection of plants for sale. The coffee was rich in flavor and had a bold roast.

This is definitely one of my go-to coffee shop for getting work done in Uptown! I like that it's quieter, really spacious, the baristas are super chill, and the coffees great! Its on a side street so that makes street parking easier! I always walk here but it's still easier to get to than waiting for a ton of crosswalks. The baristas are always really friendly, chill, helpful, and funny! Their coffee selection is wide and they offer a wide range of teas as well. One of my favorite parts of Corner Coffee is just how large it is, it feels very open and like you can actually breathe! The tables aren't super close together unlike most other Uptown coffee shops. It's a pretty quiet atmosphere but not too quiet, it's definitely a good spot to catch up with a friend! read more

GINGER MALE EMPLOYEE WAS AWFUL and handled our food without gloves or clean hands. I don't know what was going on, but my sister and I walked in to Corner Coffee in Uptown and ordered a bagel with cream cheese and another bakery item. We were kind and easy and the man waiting on us was incredibly rude. He was a stalkier man with red hair and a beard. He was cold the entire time and when giving us our food, he literally threw the bag with the bagel in it and the bag with the bakery item on the counter not saying a word. He also touched our bakery items with his bare hands without washing them which is disgusting considering everything we've been through with Covid. Alas, we didn't say anything about it because we're not those kind of people. We truly don't understand what would warrant this kind of treatment. We'd understand a little if we had been difficult or disrespectful but that wasn't the case. Definitely never coming here again and wish I would've returned my item and demanded my money back. The food and coffee is incredibly "mid", as well. But whoever the ginger male employee is needs to be schooled on how to treat kind customers. How embarrassing. read more

I'm loving the airy, modern-rustic atmosphere in Corner Coffee. What's even better is it wasn't crowded on a weekday afternoon, so I got my choice of seating and could get some work done without getting up close n' personal with 3 other tables. That being said, it was a little loud because they have a roaster/grinder right in the sitting area where we could watch (and smell) the process. Worse things have happened. Roomie and I had the Missouri Gold loose leaf tea and the Bourbon Caramel Latte, respectively. The tea reminded us of Good Earth tea, but not as overpoweringly spicy, and we both loved the Bourbon Caramel's strong coffee flavor and subtle sweetness (no sugar rush from this one - just the way I like it). Prices seemed reasonable. I noticed a few drink prices that were a little lower than the competition's (looking at you, Spyhouse and Groundswell). The main thing I like about this place is the digs. Bare wood floors, rustic, pinteresty string lights everywhere, spacious and airy in the spring with widely spaced tables (a big plus if you're like me and easily feel crowded). The barista was really friendly and accommodating in spite of my annoying habit of scrolling through Yelp looking for drink recommendations until the moment I order. I'm an indecisive person and almost always waffle around asking the barista what he or she recommends, and this one was nice about it. He also offered to get my roomie a new tea because he accidentally spilled a bit of hers while bringing it out. Overall, I have nothing bad to say about this place. Pretty good option if you're looking for an independent coffee house to chill or get work done and enjoy some freshly ground coffee. I will be coming back. read more

THE GINGER GUY TREATED ME WITH POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE. The minute I walked in, he glared at me and made me feel very unwelcome.d When I asked for the menu he just pointed at it in a very aloof and irritated way and proceeded to give me a dirty look. I literally just left because I felt so uncomfortable. I don't know what his issue is. read more

Quite a upbeat and friendly place! They ground their own coffee in the corner of the main dinning area. The machine is loud but if you don't mind some background noise, it's a lovely place to get some work done! The aroma of the freshly grounded beans adds to the spunky, rustic atmosphere too ;).There's free wifi which is nice for when you have to study for finals. The individuals here are sweet. My drink spilled a little as the barista came over with it and told me that he would get me a new one. Very accommodating! I got the the Missouri Gold which smells strongly like cinnamon but has a more calming and sweet taste! The cookie on the side is a nice touch! Overall, the first impression of this location is enjoyable to hang with friends and get some work done if you don't mind about the noise of the coffee being crushed :) read more

I heart The Beat. As I write this, I'm sitting on a comfy couch in a pleasant atmosphere and sipping on a darn good latte. I'd like to come here for a show sometime as well. I asked the barista about bringing a baby here for some music and he explained that they get a huge variety of music, so it just all depends. He also mentioned that they are toying with the idea of putting "volume icons" next to the shows so you'll have an idea of how loud it is...now i think that's a great idea, especially since I'm a bit on the mellower side and wouldn't like doom-metal blaring while I'm sipping on a chai. ;) They have complimentary wifi and some nice photos on the wall that I think you can purchase. I haven't tried the food yet, but as I think this might now be part of my regular coffee shop tour, I'm sure I'll be updating this review soon! read more

Great space with lots of plants that isn't too crowded. Bonus points for keeping the music at a reasonable level. One of my favorite spots in Uptown to meet with friends! read more

One of the better mochas I've had in Minneapolis - really full bodied with just the right amount of chocolate and steamed milk without tasting more like hot chocolate than coffee. The barista was really nice and brought the coffee out to my table. The space was also really comfortable and lots of natural light and seating with both couches and table seating, along with a stage for live music. Another bonus for me is that it is within walking distance of the bus terminal and of the three coffeehouses that are, this is probably my number 2 (after Isles because their baked goods are phenom and Beat didn't have as many options but over Uncommon because of coffee quality/flavour). Update: back again a week later and got a breve with caramel. Different barista but still a fantastic drink. They must use a really great roaster. read more

Often includes boutique-y, coffee cocktailish drinks on part with The Lynhall and Wesley Andrews * Friendly and knowledgeable baristas - they roast the beans for all 3 locations at uptown! * Love the outdoor seating in the renovated alley * Lots of tables inside - you'll never have to worry about finding somewhere to sit.

I'm self-diagnosed with ADHD and my laptop sucks up battery life like a thirsty fat kid so Tea Garden has gotten way too loud and distracting and I have more fingers on one hand than Rustica has to electrical outlets. Welcome to my new favorite coffee shop. Cozy, quiet, and relaxing. Plenty of electrical outlets, the best chai latte, and who doesn't love a fake fireplace? I love the beautiful local art work on the walls but my favorite has to be the stainless steel tea kettles with drilled holes and a light bulb that's turned into a table lamp. Ahh so creative. It's seriously the most quiet coffee shop/place I've ever been to and I love it. The world seems to slow down when I'm here and I think everyone (okay, maybe some people) that come here respect and appreciate the quietness as well. read more

I wanted to like The Beat. Really, I did. I live in the duplex next door, and had a cute idea in my head of becoming a regular there, prancing in for cups of fresh French Press (which is only semi-redeeming quality about this place) and being friends with the baristas. However, the baristas are snotty, the hours are irregular, and the coffee frequently tastes burned. If you're into the 16-year-old punk rawk scene, this is the place for you. If not, I'd try one of its friendlier neighborhood counterparts. read more

The food is tasty, and the coffee is pretty good. Not the greatest coffee I've ever had, but I'm also only paying $4 for a french press which holds around 3 large cups of coffee. Soup and sandwich for ~$10 is a pretty decent deal for the area as well, especially given the fact that everything is made fresh, and with good-quality ingredients (disclaimer: as far as my taste buds and stomach could tell). The staff was very friendly and courteous when I visited - the girl working the counter was more than happy to volunteer to bring my french press to me while I worked on a client project in the corner of the room. The interior decor definitely has an indie and welcoming vibe to it. When I first walked in, I definitely get the feel that someone spent their time making the place feel something like a cozy, personal den. If you're looking for a place with a laid-back, ambient atmosphere where you can burn a few hours relaxing or working, then this might be the coffeehouse for you. If you're looking for an upscale glass-and-stainless-steel type cafe that serves chocolatey sugar-laden drinks with European-sounding names, stay far, far, away. read more

Not sure how I hadn't been here before but was so excited to find this place! The staff is super friendly and efficient and the space is big but also cozy, comfortable and good for working. Good selection of teas as well. Get the breakfast sandwich! read more

The Beat is a quaint (and somewhat forgotten) coffee shop off of 28th in Uptown. For my fellow mobile warriors, there's plenty of seating and outlets, and the music doesn't make your ears bleed. It's also refreshing, since there's a non-pretentious and cozy vibe. However, several things could improve: -I think their coffee is A-OK, but it's not necessarily a main draw for me. In other words, I wouldn't go out of my way to get a cup there. -I like Trader Joe's, but I don't want to visit a coffee shop to get Trade Joe's chai. Maybe do a tastier spin using it? -It's a bit too dark inside. Even a vampire like me thinks that the inside could include another light or two. -Every time I've visited, rock music has been played. Maybe something more soothing? I hope The Beat succeeds! The people there are great! read more

Christian coffee shop trying to pretend its just a coffee shop but its obviously a Christian coffee shop because the girl working is wearing a North Central hoodie and listening to Relient K. The good: sandwiches/food are quite good and the staff are pretty nice. Quiet place if you need to get work done w/ comfy seating. Nice stage/performance room where local singer/songwriters occasionally perform if you're into that sort of thing. Also, a parking lot. The bad: coffee and espresso drinks are pretty lousy. This is unfortunate since they are a coffee shop and all. read more
