Went with a small group of friends and this place felt like a little gem! The staff were so helpful and kind, the array of lattes were delicious and the brunch menu while small, each thing we ordered was delicious! My favorite was the California Toast! read more

Driving up I was very impressed with how beautiful the building was! I was just picking up dinner to go, but would love to visit again dining in the restaurant. The decor and ambiance is so inviting. The gentleman who handed me my food was very kind. I ordered the steak oscar which came with asparagus and mashed potatoes. The steak was perfect medium rare and the shrimp were perfectly cooked. I also ordered the French onion soup which wasn't the best decision, as French onion soup is best consumed right out of the oven and not to go. But the flavor was great. I'll be back next time I'm in town! read more

NoPo was recommended to us so we decided to try it for lunch. Good thing we didn't want dinner because they close at 3PM. Apparently they used to offer dinner. Not enough business? It is located in an obscure little strip mall hidden in trees behind Target. We missed it on the first pass but it all worked out. My wife had a "California Toast," which featured "sourdough, guacamole, tomato, balsamic glaze, and seasonal fruit" She said it was quite good, heavily drizzeled with a very good balsamic reduction. Reasonable at $11.00. I ordered the fish & truffle chips. The chips were very good, with a generous truffle flavor. The fish started off good with a house-made batter that cooked into what was almost a shell. Interesting and good. The fish was advertised as Atlantic Cod. I'm no ichthyologist, so I don't know the variety but what I got was two pieces shaped to look like fillets. Basically the same fish that various bars offer pre-breaded/all-you-can-eat on Friday nights. Sportsman's Café in Deer River, for example. At $20/plate this choice is far inferior to what Anchor Fish & Chips in Minneapolis provides for $17.50. Too bad. I like good fish & chips. Here "good" stopped with the truffle fries and fish batter. Pleasant but not wonderful. We'll keep an eye for a dinner menu and give this place another try. read more

We have been going to Nopo since we moved back to GR. It has the most urban menu in town. Issac is a great chef and the drinks are trendy and good with one large ice-cube. The deconstructed Salmon Wontons are amazing. The crab cake Benedict could easily be shared along with an order of truffle fries. I never expected to like them as much as I do. Cheers read more

Service and food was ok - was not happy that I was being charged a 20% gratuity onto my bill. Not only that, when I asked where that 20% was going to(hoping it was going directly to the server) it's going directly to the owner... On top of that, the receipt doesn't allow you to tip the servers directly through a card transaction so if you want to tip the servers, you need to have cash on hand only.. I found this very strange and unprofessional for a business to be doing and felt bad for the employees. read more

Walking up to the building- it's adorable! The inside, very classy retro club look. There isn't very much seating considering the size of the building, and not much room to wait in line for carry out coffee orders. The barista (Matt) was very nice and gave a drink rec for my fiancé who doesn't drink coffee. We got the shaken maple espresso and the chai latte. Let's start with the chia- it was scrumptious! 10/10, one of the three best chai teas either of us had ever had! The coffee, 7/10, the coffee flavor was very good, but the maple flavor tasted like it was a flavor syrup instead of a real maple syrup (ya know that flavoring that has a kind of off "texture" when you drink it). I'd highly recommend this place for take away orders of drinks (but I can imagine seating is hard to get when they are busy), but I wouldn't suggest the shaken maple espresso. read more

I'd almost like to not recommend this place to keep the crowds away. My son and I were in town to run some errands. We just wanted something that was not chain food. The food was outstanding. The service was excellent. I'd drive up weekly to eat at this place. It was definitely not your fast food or normal bar food restaurant. read more

Iced Maple Espresso was excellent. Truffle fries were amazing. Fun cocktail menu. Great service and good vibes.

What an amazing place! Hidden away behind Target, I never would have known about this gem if not for a friend. I can't wait to try everything on the menu! The Bananas Fosters French Toast was to die for. Waitress was quick and attentive. It's small & quaint, so you may need a reservation for a larger group. read more

Food is always amazing, drinks are fun, staff is friendly, and the ambiance is relaxing!

Came here on a snowy Sunday hoping to warm up with a nice latte. The place is stunning. I love the ambiance of it. Service was a little slow considering the place only had 2 other tables in it but they were busy working trying to get closed up for a couple weeks so maybe that was why. I ordered the Turkish - latte with ground cardamom and honey. It was delicious. Perfect amount of spice. I also ordered a waffle to snack on. Everything was delicious and would definitely come back my next time in town. read more

Meals prepared with superior ingredients. It is now my favorite eating out location in Grand Rapids. Excellent experience all around.

The Lox and Bagel and the Acai bowl were amazing. The Lox was so fresh and the Pickled onions were an unexpected treat. The Breve was also very good. My server Katie was very friendly and attentive. I give it a 5 out of 5 read more

Great place! Highly recommend everything Nopo has to offer. Food, service and ambiance are 5-stars

Talk about a beautiful aesthetic! Such an inviting and warm space. I had a pour over to start and it was smooth and flavorful. For lunch, I tried the Southwest Salad. It was absolutely gorgeous and incredibly delicious. I then got an iced Cafe con Miel and it was the perfect afternoon treat. read more

Best customer service, food is excellent, and the whole way out of the area is so relaxing and beautiful.

Excellent food, coffee and service. Went there with my mother for an early lunch. Hidden gem in Grand Rapids.

Excellent coffee, friendly staff, great prices, welcome and cozy atmosphere. Matt was phenomenal. He brought the coffees to our table and offered us water. Definitely coming back! read more

This place rocks. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Coffee is tasty and available to buy in bulk. The food was good too. I had avocado toast, and for deep Minnesota, the avocado was ripe. The atmosphere is very cool and stylish. Well put together. read more

NoPo is a breath of fresh air (in food) in rural MN. After a morning yoga class at Center, my spouse and I previewed the menu at NoPo and immediately determined it would be our lunch place. A Whole 30, gluten-free lunch place! We spit a Wendigo Cobb salad--crispy, fresh romaine and cucumbers. Salty bacon. Creamy dressing. Then we each ordered "toasts" on sweet potato rounds: me, the Moose, my spouse the Mishawaka. Each were tasty. Fresh and clean eating like only While 30 can be. Topped off with great coffee, we were very happy--and will prioritize coming back! read more

Best kept secret in Grand Rapids! They are located in a beautiful building and share space with Center and Bala Spa. I ordered the Asian Chicken Salad which is grilled chicken, red, orange, yellow peppers, scallions, mushrooms, cucumber and crunchy noodles served on a bed of crispy napa cabbage. It was fresh & delicious but lacked the proper Asian dressing which would have elevated it from a good salad to an excellent one. My reason for only a 4 star rating. I also had a skinny latte light on foam which was great. I live 28 miles away but will definitely stop in again when I come to town and try one of their other menu items. Even though the menu items are limited for breakfast & lunch, they also serve coffee, tea & espresso drinks, smoothies, sweets, beer & wine. read more

This one star is for the coffee. The staff gave no information when we asked about the spa and fitness facility. Good luck on finding out. There are no hours and no information on spa or fitness facility. We were mocked as we left. Staff didn't realize. When we turned around things got silent and very uncomfortable. This is probably why we were the only ones there the entire time. Is it a club or cult? read more

Love this place! It's in the woods but in town. Beautiful atmosphere with great food. Everything is clean eating, not frozen. The coffee is yummy too! You can't go wrong! read more

I'm visiting Grand Rapids and what a find! The latte and ham, egg, and Swiss cheese croissant were WONDERFUL! Crispy Rainer cherries...a bonus! I thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful space of light, fresh flowers, and rustic warmth. Friendly and welcoming staff. Absolutely check this place out! Wish I had time to enjoy the Bala Spa...will be sure to tell friends about this too! read more

I've been staying in Grand Rapids for the week and have visited this coffee shop twice. My first visit was great, me and my boyfriend ordered mochas and they were by far some of the best we've had. Since we enjoyed them so much we visited the shop again for two more. Unfortunately the second visit the mochas were no where near as tasty as the day before, the barista put way too much syrup in the coffee making it too sweet to drink. read more

This is my new FAVORITE coffee shop! Must try special bakery items including authentic scones and delicious Monster cookies! The salads are yummy, healthy and generous portions. Great yogurt parfait so for breakfast! Wonderful atmosphere and the staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommend! read more
