I chose lemonade with raspberry flavoring. It was a perfect refresher to sit outside on the patio and enjoy the beautiful afternoon. I also could not resist the salt caramel chip cookie. How counter productive to eat calories why I'm trying to reduce them by exercising but oooo was it good! Great service. Cozy inside. Great stop.

Recently placed an online order to bring to my in laws house when we were in her neck of the woods…read more Super easy and convenient! The order was ready on time and was super good! We got The Gambler which was a delicious butterscotch espresso drink. Just the right amount of sweetness. We also tried The Rancher which had a nice balance of pistachio and white chocolate. We also got the breakfast sandwich. It was a nice size and I loved how customizable it was. The place is smaller and doesn't look like much from the outside but it makes up for it in delicious drinks!

Really cute local coffee shop with a great specialty drink menu. I love that they have both…read moreseasonal drinks and house specialties, so there's always something a little more interesting than your standard latte. They also roast their own coffee and have a nice selection of breakfast options, pastries, and build-your-own breakfast sandwiches. The space feels relaxed and is a good spot to actually sit and enjoy your coffee rather than just grabbing it and leaving. Definitely a solid local coffee option in Lakeville, especially if you like trying seasonal lattes

Used to frequent the location when it was Donut Star - it used to be pretty empty which was great…read morefor my kids but I went in on a Thursday morning and it was packed ! Nice to see that they are doing well but there were a couple drawbacks. They have a delicious sounding fall seasonal menu. I had ordered an iced cinnamon latte (less sweet) and someone else picked up the order before I got the chance to grab it. They didn't correct the person who got it and instead re-made one for me except they didn't make it less sweet. I didn't get the chance to ask them to re make it since my kids are 3 and under and they were kind of needy the day I came. I wish they had labeled the coffee cups with names so there wouldn't be a mix-up. It was very sweet and on the milkier side and although it tasted good, I like my coffee a bit stronger and less sweet. I also wish they had another kids coloring table spread out next to more adult tables since it was so busy when I went. Since my kids that I brought are 3 and under, I needed to sit close to them and ended up crouching down at the kids' table with them since there wasn't room at neighboring adult tables. Some kids were at the table not coloring but watching shows on their parent's phones with the parents sitting nearby. A lot of the colored pencils were worn down and need to be sharpened. On the pros, the staff was extremely friendly. The cashier and the barista who made my coffee were both very sweet and welcoming. I will probably return but hopefully at a time when it's less busy! It's always nice to see places that have kid-friendly options and are more welcoming for families. I also loved that they had an IKEA high chair for use. My kids loved the croissant that they had.

Getaway has become one of my favorite destination cafés in Minnesota and is almost always on the…read moreshort list when I'm trying to decide what to do for a few hours. Whether it's an early morning motorcycle ride for coffee or an evening trip for cocktails, food trucks, and live music, it always feels worth the ride. The café was founded by riders and embraces an "All Wheels Welcome" philosophy, which is part of what makes it such a fun place to visit. The space itself is beautiful, the drinks are consistently great, and the atmosphere strikes a nice balance between being a community gathering spot and a place to relax. What really stands out, though, is the ownership. They genuinely care about building community, and it shows in everything from the events they host to the welcoming environment they've created. My only minor criticism is that, despite the name, I sometimes wish it leaned a little harder into the motorcycle and car culture side of things. It feels like it's evolved into more of a general destination café than a true motor-focused hangout. That said, it's a very small complaint, and the fact that such a wide variety of people enjoy the space is probably part of its success. If you're looking for a great excuse to get out of the Twin Cities, grab a coffee, meet up with friends, or just enjoy a scenic ride, I'd absolutely recommend checking out Getaway Motor Cafe.

Our drinks were made pretty fast, too, & we sat on their lovely little patio area. I got a Done Well with oat milk & it was super tasty; the cardamom made the flavor rich without being overpowering. My husband got an Easy (don't remember the full name), & it was in a similar vein flavor-wise, but also really good. I'll absolutely be back, both for the drinks & for beans!

It was smooth and not overly sweet. I also tried the French Toast Breakfast Sandwich and it was quite good. Total was a little over $$22 for the two items and a 20% tip.

Such a fun coffee shop concept, especially if you're a book lover…read more The biggest draw here is definitely the huge selection of books available for trading and browsing, which makes the whole space feel cozy and unique compared to your typical suburban coffee shop. I also really liked that a lot of the food is made in house, which is a nice touch, and they offer gluten-free options as well. The coffee flights are such a fun idea if you want to try a few different drinks instead of committing to one. The coffee itself was decent, especially for a smaller suburban spot. Not the most mind-blowing coffee I've had, but definitely enjoyable. The space has a warm, comfortable vibe with plenty of seating, making it a nice spot to hang out with a book or spend some time relaxing. Staff was decently friendly, though I did overhear some arguing amongst themselves, which took away from the atmosphere a bit.
