    My husband is a coffee enthusiast and he said these are his favorite beans to date! On our trip up last fall, we had to check them out. We got the specialty maple latte and the tumeric ginger chai. Both were delicious. It's a small space inside with only a few tables and can get busy, so I'd recommend planning to take your drink to go. They didn't have much by way of pastries or food, and not really anything for gluten free folks. They have some great merch and you can buy beans to take home - makes for a perfect souvenir! Efficient and kind service to top our experience off. We'll be back!

    I heard great things about the Maple Latte and am glad I stopped in to give it a try. Usually, when I order a latte, it's too sweet, but this one had the perfect balance of coffee with a hint of sweetness--I loved it. The inside is small but very cute, with a couple of tables and bar stools by the window. They also sell artwork, apparel, stickers, coffee beans, and more. The service was quick, and the barista was friendly. I'm looking forward to coming back!

    LOVED the coffee. Such a delightful little place with smooth coffee & espresso and awesome looking pastries.

    Fika Coffee is a small shop in Lutsen known for their maple lattes as the syrup is made locally in town. The barista was really kind and made my drink with love. The interior is fairly small with two little tables and a bar near the window that fits about 3-4 bodies. There is a small section of apparel including snow caps, sweatshirts, coffee mugs, bandanas, and coffee beans. There was a really neat wall display of broom art and I enjoyed reading the history of it along with the artist from Lutsen while I sipped on my latte. Lastly, I learned from the house book on display a few facts about Fika. Fika means to "have a cup of coffee" or "enjoy coffee" with family or friends in Sweden with a small treat. According to the book, it's a layer more then the physical drinking. Fika is the ritual of enjoying coffee, a lifestyle and taking time out of your day to pause. Learning about Fika roots made me realize why I appreciate coffee dates so much. I hope to be reminded of Fika everyday. Lastly, we purchased some North Shore beans and plan to use them tomorrow when we have coffee at our sea villa. Thank you, Fika! I look forward to my return and am exited I get to take some of you back home to Saint Paul. Note: there are no reusable mugs to stay if this is important to you. The cups are recyclable, however.

    Such a cute little coffee shop in lutsen! They say their maple is homemade from their literal back yard where they extract the sap from the trees, so cool! I ordered the maple latte and honestly the maple flavor was pretty subtle but I liked the espresso. The service was also fairly quick even though it was busy.

    I came here all 3 days of my trip up north this past week. I tried the maple latte, iced mocha, iced maple latte, and their affogato! I really loved everything i got but the iced maple latte was my favorite. The affogato was also my favorite one that i've had before. It's such a cute little coffee shop, i definitely recommend stopping by if you're in the area!

    Cute little coffee shop with coffee drinks comparable to the cities. It's pretty tiny inside so it's more of a grab and go spot but it's worth a trip. The baristas are friendly and knowledgeable. It was pretty busy with a long line when we went but they handled everyone efficiently. And it was worth the wait. This is a must stop if you are in the Lutsen area!

    This small coffee house in Lutsen Minnesota is very popular. Their coffee creations were very satisfying and deserve your business. They also roast their own coffee beans so they know what they are doing here. Although they sell what looked like locally made donuts, there is no other food options. The staff was friendly and very helpful to any questions you may have about your drinks.

    We visited in a Sunday morning and it was packed. The line was out the door with people making their trek back home from a weekend up north. The line moved quickly and the customer service was top notch. All of the drinks are hand made so it will take a while yo get your drink. The space inside is very small so we opted to sit outside in the beautiful weather and watch as others came out so we knew when ours were likely next which worked out well. Our drinks were both very good. We got an iced mocha which was very chocolaty and a 704 which had the perfect amount of cardamom. Sometimes with independent coffee houses we are left wanting more flavor in the syrups but that def wasn't the case with Fika. If your up north, this place is worth the stop and the wait is the lines are a bit long.

    Cute merch!

    You have to stop at Fika in Lutsen! The best mountain coffee I've ever had! I got the maple latte, as everyone says the maple syrup is one-of-kind up here. The only downside is the limited indoor seating, but the outdoor tables are a nice touch. The workers were kind, and I loved the vibe so much that I could have spent all day there. I even bought the North Shore blend to take home. Highly recommend!

    The outside pulled me inward. I love this look. The inside was a bit more cold and unwelcoming. Not my favorite coffee or place. I ended up not even finishing my cup. This place just missed the mark for me.

    I found the perfect coffee spot for me on the North Shore. Fika Coffee roasts their own beans on Tue and Wed so they are closed those days. So bummed they are closed for the days I will be up here. The gentlemen running the place were so friendly to their guests. They had some regulars but the majority were out of town visitors like me. My latte was so good. Rich flavors, creamy milk, and nice and hot. There is only one small table in the place. I sat at the window bar so I was able to enjoy the beautiful sunny day and see the guests come and go. I do plan on going back to pick up a bag of their beans. Can wait til Thur when I can get another cup of their delicious coffee. See you right at 7am.

    I've been coming here for years on an annual family trip. The first year i think i was…read moreunderwhelmed, but every year I've learned a little more...it's about picking the right donuts for you. They're so subjective. I have gotten the skizzle twice and always been underwhelmed. Powdered sugar donut is where it's at for me and my husband. This last trip I learned that the donut kabob is definitely kid friendly / travel friendly. Chet's best is also disappointing for us given how enticing it looks. I think I'll try one of the cream ones (white bismark with raspberry jelly) or a maple long john next time. It's always worth the trip. Lines can be long but if you go early as we do they usually aren't bad.

    One of the towns we visited on our trip to Lake Superior was Grand Marais (Minnesota). Walking…read morearound, I saw this small shop with a sign that said World's Best Donuts. I had to test out their claim the next morning. I waited in the short line and found a delectable section of fried dough topped with a creative assortment of sugars. There was even a tray of donuts called "Chet's Best" (I learned that is the name of the proprietor's father - and mine too). I chose the Skizzle (basically fried dough dipped in sugar) and a Cinnamon pull-apart. The Skizzle definitely was a contender for one of the best donuts I have ever tasted. The Cinnamon bun I also ordered was more dense than I enjoy. I believe I'll have to taste more of their creations before I can truly give into their claim. But I would not hesitate to stop by if you're in town and choose one or two for your own sweet snack.

My husband and I stopped in to Cascade Restaurant 2 separate times during our weekend trip up to Lutsen. The restaurant was conveniently located 5 minutes from our lodging- Thomsonite Inn. When you first enter, you grab a menu, sit wherever is open, and order at the register which is a different set-up but worked well for them. Our 1st visit, I ordered the seafood chowder and fried chicken dinner which were both phenomenal. Every spoonful of the chowder was filled with clams and fish. The portion size of the extra crispy fried chicken fed me for 2 nights. I left there so satisfied! When we came back for breakfast, I had another delicious meal of the avocado toast with balsamic glaze. I would definitely come back here for the delicious food next time we road trip up North again.

The home fries were super crispy & well seasoned. I also loved that they had a sourdough bread option. Everything was well made/decently priced and is a great quick sit-down breakfast option in town.
