I was at the Blue Heron a few weeks ago with my sister It was very busy and a man waiting near us…read moresaid he comes there almost daily and it was the busiest he's ever seen. lol. Lucky us. Totally worth the wait tho, our food was delicious. Very fresh and well made coffee was great. Very nice waitstaff, cute building and restaurant. Great job!

I had lunch here with friends yesterday while visiting them in Winona. What a wonderful…read morecoffeehouse! The food was absolutely delicious, and the coffee nice and strong (I had a dark roast) Service was excellent. Lots of people there hanging out - very much a community place. The kale, quinoa, butternut squash salad I had was SO GOOD! I thought about getting some to take home. Strongly recommend this place if you visit Winona!

Good spot for brunch/lunch in the area. Friendly service and good atmosphere. The Dre burrito I…read moreordered massive! Such good food!

Nice shop, great food! Street parking. Plenty of inside and outside seating. Took quite a bit to…read moreget the food service but they disclose on a sign that it can take up to a 1/2 hour if it's busy. The chorizo egg bowl was flavorable with a medium spice. You don't need to add the additional sauces available. Loaded with sweet potatoes. Bagel sandwiches were good, warm. Eggs were fluffy. The loaded avocado toast was amazing, flavorful, seasoned right, overflowing in the basket.

That last 3 times I have ordered something here they have been out of oat milk. Today they didn't…read morehave almond milk either. Since I can buy oat milk every day, anywhere, it clearly shows this place has a management problem!

Yay Starbucks! We'd been on the road for a while and were desperate for coffee. We'd not seen a…read moreStarbucks for a while. Luckily, Yelp pointed us in the direction of this Starbucks, which is located INSIDE TARGET. Service was a wee bit slow, but she also kinda got slammed at once with like 4 people. Someone eventually came to help (not sure where he came from, he just magically appeared) and we got our stuff. But overall I'd say it took about ten minutes from the time we got in line to the time we received our coffees. But - the service was friendly and the coffee was hot..... So we left happy.

Literally my favorite coffee shop in Winona! It gives you the nice coffee shop aesthetic and the…read moremusic there is calming. I tend to go to the one next to campus and do my homework there. Always nice staff and just the cutest little shop. This is a must stop for coffee! I tend to get lattes and frappes. The coffee really comes through even with the flavors you add. They also have sweet drinks so if sugar is your thing it's still the place for you! Stop by if you're in the area!

So fresh. I will crave this. Can't go wrong between hoagie and pita. Salami was my move.read more

Came here on a Saturday morning right when they opened. There were only 2 other people in there and…read morewe ordered first. I would like to say that I come here alot and have always loved the food and had great service, but this visit was different. We ordered our sandwiches to go so maybe the was the issue? We ordered 3 sandwiches and they took an incredibly long time to be ready especially since we were the only ones who had ordered. The person who took our order was not friendly either. As they were making our sandwiches they were also complaining about how they didn't want to be at work. Usually I'd give acoustic 5/5 stars, the food is amazing but the atmosphere today was off.

Ducks say "quack"; fish go "blub" And the seal goes "ow ow…read moreow" But there's one sound that no one knows (Ylvis) What does the caribou say? "Grunt-runt-grunt-grunt-runtergruntygrunt" Not only do caribou speak in grunts, but they also produce a clicking sound when they walk. I imagine this is a secondary form of communicating with their South African Zulu-speaking Kudu cousins. I'm uncertain if Caribou employees are required to learn grunting or clicking as part of their barista mastery as I've only ever spoken to them in English, but my orders here have never been lost in translation. The coffee is rich and smooth, and lacks the high acidity of Starbucks (though I add in my own bitterness if my visit is before 9am #nightowlsunite). I'm sure most coffee drinkers in Winona would justifiably rate Mugby as having the best coffee in town, but Caribou is a solid backup when you get a wild hair for caffeine. Caribou sits in a very convenient location, right off the highway as you enter Winona, a great option when there's no time to migrate across town for your Mugby fix. Overall this Caribou is a wonderful place for you and your herd to fuel up when you're on the go, foraging the MN tundra for some joe. **Disclaimer, no caribou are used or harmed in the brewing of the coffee at this chain.

The coffee shop itself is nothing special but the employees are not as polite and friendly as for…read moreexample in Scooters or Starbucks. I do not know if this is the company's policy or if it is specific to this particular coffee shop. Also once I played Trivia in the Caribou app and won a 10 cent discount on a drink. I really regretted doing it because they gave me coffee of a much smaller volume. They simply did not fill it to the proper amount. I advise the company to organize training for employees on better customer interaction and respect toward them. And it is worth removing Trivia from the app if it is not being used to benefit customers.

We love a convenient drive-thru coffee spot! There were a variety of flavors of coffee, smoothies,…read moreenergy drink infused drinks so there's definitely something for everyone seeking a quick caffeine fix. I decided to stick with a comfortable classic and got a medium latte though I was very interested in some of the creative drinks. Staff was very friendly and patient in explaining what some of the different drinks contained. I love the packaging of the cups, so colorful and eye catching. I appreciated the little smiley face sticker on my lid that said "Smile, you're amazing", it made my morning.

Wonderful service and for me to say this coffee is as good as as Starbucks if you knew me, I go to…read moreStarbucks usually every morning and this coffee is as good as there's that is quite a compliment because I used to live in Washington and there was a Starbucks and I have every corner literally and I look forward to coming to this place and getting some coffee wonderful service.

Definitely a great spot for delicious food in Winona!

Everyone told me while in town I had to check out these maple donuts…read more I will say we got a dozen plus 6 and it was $30!!! I'm from Boston and it would have been $50+ The glazed croissant was fantastic, but i feel that the other donuts including the maple stick was just average.

They have a wonderful variety of baked goods and it was hard to choose which one to try because they all looked so yummy and mouth-watering! I ended up ordering the chocolate glazed filled donut and a plain glazed donut; both were 10/10. The doughnut was so fluffy and light and paired perfectly with a cup of coffee. It was bustling and loud inside with no seating but there is some outdoor seating. Definitely more of a grab-and-go spot. I'm not surprised it's such a popular place and I'd come back again in a heartbeat to try more treats!
