It's true what they say about their bittersweet chocolate cookies...they are awesome! I also picked up a loaf of egg braid w/raisin and a pistachio chocolate danish for later...those were also very tasty! I wanted to hang around and have a latte but I didn't have time AND the place was packed full on a Friday morning...crazy! Next time I'll make sure to sit and enjoy one read more

I guess I was expecting more when I final found time to stop in to this renown bakery on a recent Sunday morning. Perhaps all the accolades had gone to my head or I was a bit guilty for waiting so long to try them out as there are so many outstanding places like this now across the twin cities. Anyway, we stopped by at around 9 a.m for a little breakfast cuing up in the short line. First problem, the case nearest the door was totally empty and the small case next to it was difficult to see while in line so when one of the eager servers rushes up and ask "what can I get for you?" we were a little startled. So I sputtered out an order for a croissant and my spouse a chocolate eclaire (cause that's all she could see where she was standing). Oh well - we were recently in France so a couple of French pastries would be fine. Next issue when we move up the remaining 6 feet to the crowded cash register and order orange juice, thinking some fresh squeezed OJ would be nice, we hear "sorry, all sold out." (Sold out of Orange Juice on a Sunday morning at 9 a.m.?! Either there was a HUGE run on OJ that sleepy Sunday morning or the people running the place aren't very savvy business people. Perhaps their fame has gone to their heads as well?) Anyway to make a long story short - the pastries were good - perhaps 4 star quality but the over all experience was very disappointing. So in my book, I'm probably not going to venture over to uptown just for this bakery. Bottom line for me, overrated. read more

I was pleasantly surprised that we could run in here at 10:30 for Sunday brunch, order, get a table, and have a relatively short wait for our food. (Other places are stand in line, wait for a table, wait for food.) The coffee service is elevated above your Starbucks - they have nice large mugs and do your "froth-art" on your latte. The gravlax was tasty - just the right amount and the ingredients were well balanced. The pastries and bread all well made. Plenty of parking in the lot outside, and overall a nice experience for a casual eat in or takeout Sunday brunch. Pretty easy to take out and walk over to Lake Calhoun as well. read more

In my opinion this is the best bakery for baked goods - bread, Danishes, cookies, scones. Coffee is fantastic too. One drawback is the long lines and a packed parking lot. read more

Bread, artisanal bread, is my sole reason for going out of my way to visit Rustica. It's absolutely worth it -- to my tastes, the very best bread in the Twin Cities. The levain, the miche, the challah... That basic set is fantastic and varied just enough to keep you feeling fresh about each loaf. Crust and crumb, Rustica is my favorite. They're good enough to prompt me to use fancy-pants terms like "crumb" unashamedly. read more

Just some feedback on the espresso drinks on 12/24 about 9:30am! I am a barista visiting from San Francisco and hope comments are constructive (have really enjoyed coffees around town in general!). Ordered cappuccino and was served about a 6oz drink (about half of the smallest to go cup). Asked about the small amount of milk and was told in response that was the cappuccino matter-of-factly (thought maybe the barista would reflect and correct but just insisted, so I'm not one to challenge the houses view of their drinks but this is by definition not a cap) I can't imagine what a cortado would look like or macchiato by extended logic..(cortado was really the closest thing to what we were served)! No foam either (see photo). Not sure if this is actually the houses take, mistake, or something else but thought I'd share the feedback. read more

Rustica Bakery - Bakeries Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Mandatory Diet Today: Check your order if you want to eat! Great kitchen poor service. Last 3 orders wrong. Not the correct count of items, not the correct charge, not the correct eat-in/take-out. I hoped to eat lunch today, but it looks like I get to sit and watch everyone else even though I paid for it. Sad, depressing, and just plain rude... Bummer. read more

We like stopping into Rustica to pick up pastries or baguettes at $3.75/ea to enjoy at home. We go early to get the best selection. My husband really likes their Bostok pastry and I like their Chocolate Croissant at $3.95/ea. It's also nice to meet friends there and it is off the Greenway bike trail! read more

Although this is a busy weekend of holiday gathering we were very disappointed on several levels with our experience today. It took five minutes to find a parking space and another three minutes to get through the line to order our lunch. By that time it was two minutes past their lunch serving time and they declined bending the rules to serve us the lunch menus (it was 2:03). The savory food from the to go area couldn't be warmed up for us, though they did say it would take 9 minutes if we wanted one of the four items warmed. All the workers seemed stressed and unhappy with absolutely no one smiling. There was no thanking the customers for their business. We ordered coffees which didn't get made until we were done with our snacks. The counter workers were touching hair (not secured) and face repeatedly without washing hands. The space was loud and we overheard one customer being scolded because they couldn't hear her order. The food is good but this experience was a big disappointment. We would encourage working on manners, cleanliness and crowd management. In the future, we won't come back to eat in. read more

This review is for their location at Southdale: Service is always /impressively/ slow. Tiny portions for a high price, which wouldn't be a huge deal if service was better. Sucks that there are no convenient alternatives to this place at southdale. read more

Holy Hell, Rustica! What have you done to me? God knows why I decided to indulge in the baked goods here when I know I have high blood sugar but what the hell, we're all gonna die sooner or later, am I right? My girlfriend stopped by here to grab some goodies to enjoy on the boat on a lovely day out on Lake Minnewashta and she is both the devil and an angel. What did I eat, you ask? I'll tell you. Two of the best things I have ever put in my mouth, thank you very much. AKA: *Kouign Amann (pronounced "queen ah-mahn") *Ham & Cheese Croissant (pronounced "kwe-sauh"...if you're french) I don't know if I could choose a favorite over the two; they are different in that one is sweet and one is savory so why not both? [insert "why not both" meme here] I'll be back, Rustica, you dirty pirate hooker! read more

I LOVE Rustica! I just went there for the first time this week and we kind of went nuts. We split an eclair and a croissant along with a couple of lattes while we were at the bakery but stocked up before leaving. We bought the lemon tart and danish. Out of the two, the tart was our favorite. It had a thick cookie crust - but not too thick. You also don't get jipped on the lemon. It's a good meringue to lemon to crust ratio. The same goes for the eclair (which we bought another before leaving), it is filled with delicious creamy custard. Something else that really stood out to us was that they used REAL vanilla in our lattes. When we were done we could see all of the little vanilla pod seeds at the bottom. However, not only are their pastries tasty but I bought one of their little rolls before leaving and that was amazing as well. If you're in the area definitely check it out. But if you're a bit further away, this place is worth the drive. Be forewarned that it's hard to find a seat in there, not because of lack of space but because it is so popular. We ended up next to the coffee bar, but that's also kind of fun because you can see them make all of the drinks. read more

Rustica Bakery - Vanilla latte & croissant. - Bakeries Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Rustica has a cool 'I'm hip and drink coffee vibe' but if waiting 20 minutes for okay coffee is hip, then count me out! I woke up thinking I'd steer from my usual chain coffee place and try a local shop, and it was very crowded, took too long, and the drink was bland. I went home and poured some of my own caramel creamer in it to make it have some kind of taste. I gave it an extra star because the pastry was very good, so maybe I'll be back for just the pastries! read more

Staff was kinda of rude,. I was asking about a certain type of pastry and whoever was taking order looked at me like I was stupid. The bakery items are overpriced. $5 for one small pastry, no thanks. There are much better bakeries in uptown that don't charge crazy and are tastier. Mediocre. read more

Rustica is the best. There is so much space to chat with friends or do work. The bakery items are plentiful and delicious. The coffee is also delicious. It's convenient to drive here too because there is a parking lot right in front of it. It would be a 5/5 if prices were average (they are slightly above average I would say). read more

I came here for a few times now and every experience or anything I took from the menu was great I really recommend to go to try this place out it's not that cheap sometimes it can get expensive but quality wise are very well read more

Rustica Bakery - Bakeries Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Trendy bakery...crowded for a Saturday brunch. Service is very slow....it took almost 20 minutes to bring out a grilled cheese sandwich and eggwich. Horrible wait time. Speed is not a priority here. read more

Rustica Bakery - Slow service....took 20 minutes for this thing to come out - Bakeries Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

The best bakery items I have ever had in my entire life. It doesn't matter what you order it is amazing. Fast and receptive employees as well and a really nice chill area to sit and enjoy what you order. I have had everyone in my family and my coworkers try this place. read more

I am only writing this review to talk about the pastry at Rustica. I have had the beverages and a few lunch items but they have not made an enduring impression on me. The pastry on the other hand had left a mark on me that is hard to ignore on a daily basis. Any time I am in the area I feel this pull to go to rustica and get their double chocolate cookies or countless other baked goods. They are so good, it on occasion even inspires me to try my hand at baking. This is a short lived inspiration as all the items I would like to make are way more complicated than my basic baking skills can handle. So what I'm trying to say is get some baked goods here and you will not be disappointed! read more

A neighborhood gem that is perfect for catching up with good friends, a business transaction or just to get lost in your thoughts with a good cappuccino. The breads and pastries are to die for, and I highly recommend getting one for-here and another to give the friend or family member who will be upset that you went without them. They do offer sample of the different breads available if you are as indecisive as me. You can't go wrong with a crusty loaf of their multigrain- rustic, hearty and chock full of seedy goodness. When it comes to the sweeter side of life, their frangipane is flawless! Crispy tart shell, sweet,soft almond center and whatever seasonal fruit is available. read more

I try to visit Rustica every time I am in the area. It has some of the best pastry items around. My favorites are the apricot soleil, which is as tasty as it is beautiful and the almond danish which is buttery heaven. The coffee is good, but reasonably pricy so I usually stick to the pastries. The bread is also excellent. The fruit and nut bread is great toasted with butter for breakfast and the levain is perfect for sandwiches. If you are going to eat in, beware that it is generally very busy. Finding a place to sit is often a challenge, but if the weather is nice, you can take it on your walk around the lakes. I often opt to call ahead and pick up my order and then take it home. Highly recommend! You can't go wrong with this place. read more

It was really busy when we went, but their service was prompt and kind. I had black coffee and my friend had a double espresso. We also had a butter-something like a croissant and a vanilla bean (bread). The coffee I bought wasn't anything different than the norm but I think the double espresso did its job. The bitter croissant was delicious, flakey, buttery, and moist. I really likes it. It had a little bit of sugar that was just right. The vanilla bean wasn't so much. I thought it would've been sweet. It wasn't. It was dry and dense. Overall, the atmosphere was nice & casual. Great place to meet up and chat or study and do homework. Could be a little loud depending on traffic. I'd go there again though. read more

Best cookies I've ever had in my life (bittersweet chocolate, chocolate chip, oatmeal raisin). Not too sweet and not too buttery. A bit pricey for the size, but worth it for me since I was visiting. However, I didn't like the coconut cookie as much because it was too sweet. read more

Without a doubt the best bread in Minneapolis, it rivals next to anything I've had in Paris. What I wouldn't give for a hunk of olive bread fresh out of the oven with some of their butter. MMMmMmMmMmMmmmmm. The bread is so softy, the olives so salty and thick and the crust so perfectly crisp! AH! Other notable items: the vanilla scone, pistachio danish, and the kouign aman-- something similar to a dense croissant. Perfect with Java Jack's coffee. The owner of this bakery are absolutely wonderful people: smart, kind, and absolute food lovers. I just hope this place doesn't close down due to it being more expensive than other bakeries/ whole foods. Keep it alive!! read more

Opening day at the new location in Calhoun Village, we opened the doors the day before Thanksgiving and didn't smell bread and coffee, but wood and paint. The inside is clean and austere, with bench seating along one wall, and a big ole farm table in the middle. They were sold out of my favorite cookie ever (bittersweet chocolate) so we got a Ginger cookie instead. You can really taste the ginger in there. Best ginger cookie ever. Good tooth. Not too crunchy, not too sweet. Now, I had stated before that Kopplins in St. Paul is the best coffee I have ever had, but now there is a Mpls rival, and it is high time that the kind folks of Mpls had coffee of this caliber. They weigh and grind and brew your cup of coffee, just like at Kopplin's, but unlike Kopplin's, the coffee here looks more like a science experiment, with little burners emitting blue flame to heat water suspended in clear glass vials. Not sure how it works, exactly, but will investigate further. The espresso was wicked good, btw. I took a star off for no music and wonky tables that seemed hastily assembled from leftovers at the lumber dept of Home Depo. Not sure if that was just to get open after the delay or what, but very minor stuff that I am sure will get worked out. Too bad my office is moving, and I won't get to enjoy their coffee for very long! read more

I guess I don't get it. I see the upscale-ness of it, but this just made me feel like an outsider. I see the fantasic designs made in the coffee, but when it is made by people who don't smile and sneer at you when you ask questions, it isn't quite as fun. Both the pastry (scone) and coffee (latte) I tried were tasty, but nothing to write home... or should I say "write yelp" about. If I want a fun atomosphere, there are plenty of other coffee shops with smiling baristas and service with a "have a good day at the end." If I want a leaf made from the milk of my coffee (now that is cool!), I'll keep going to Rustica. read more

Pastry addicts UNITE! This is your Midwest mecca. As an enthusiast for all things flaky and carby and gluteny, I love Rustica. Their croissants are flaky. Scones are crumbly and sweet. And their lattes. GOOD GOD, THEIR LATTES...beautiful warm milky cups of heaven. I could write a poem about it. But I won't. So yes. Their pastries and lattes are divine (not to mention their double chocolate chip cookies, which can be used to bribe anyone you want to do anything you want). The only thing I am not head over heels for, is how crowded this place gets. I mean, that's what happens when you make exceptional high-end yummies in a well-to-do suburb. But I find that part kind of a bummer. If you're looking for a place to relax and read and look at the snow fall lazily as you read Thoreau, this spot is it. Just make sure that time is not a weekend morning. I'm telling you. PACKED. Not relaxing. And full of students camping out for houuuuuuuurs. So stop by and grab those treats and a latte, and read that Thoreau at home. Plus if you read it at home, you can eat all 6 of those double chocolate chip cookies in private. Without judgement. EVERYBODY WINS! read more

My sister and I stopped in here quick for a sweet treat on a Saturday afternoon. Pros: the caramel chocolate tart was delicious. Cons: only one register and a long wait of people ordering. The selection for pastries and lunch items was also kind of small. Not a huge deal if you're going to Rustica for just coffee and a place to hang or study, I was just surprised by it. The shop was busy and we had to share a table with another party. Was totally fine with us but again, just something to note. read more

You're not likely to find a better French/Italian style bakery in the country. "Surely, you can't be serious," you say. Oh, but I am serious and don't call me Shirley. Not convinced? Try a single olive roll with it's perfect balance of crisp crust, pillow soft bread, and moist, savory olives and then we'll talk. Scones? If your gauge for scones are the shortening-bombs they pawn off as baked goods at Caribucks, well, you simply haven't had a real scone. You owe it to yourself to sink your chompers into one of Rustica's lightly-sweet, butter-crumbly currant scones. These are scones the way the nature intended. There's more. Oh, so much more: chocolate cookies that melt on your tongue like a french kiss from a chocolate angel; crusty/soft baguettes; tarts, tarts, and more tarts. Side bonus: Rustica is located within Java Jack's so you can sit an enjoy the always entertaining people watching and bustling neighborhood vibe. Note: As another commenter pointed out, you can't get a Rustica baked good and a coffee rung up at a single register. Sure, it would be nice, but I don't know, no biggie for me. read more

This is the best bread in the Twin Cities, without exaggeration or caveat. Rustica's bread are for those who know what great bread should be, which is rare in our supermarket culture. The baguettes are perfect with an excellent crust and delicious flavor. The texture inside is great. Put a ripe tomato on one of these and you will be in heaven. We get the Levain bread for toast at home and it is bliss. The pastries are also awesome. Get a 4" galette and don't share it! Eat it yourself and live the good life. The scones define what a scone is meant to be. The cookies, sublime. You can tell I am completely, wholeheartedly a fan of Rustica. Go there for your bread and you will enjoy eating at home again. Seriously. read more

Dogwood coffee is snobby and ridiculous, and it has ruined my favorite coffee shop, Urban Bean. I loved their coffee, it was the best. Now they sell that #%&*! Dogwood brand. When when I went to Rustica/Bull Run /aka Dogwood to get a breve (modified) to go I was told they cannot sell breve's or cappuccino's to go as it " ruins the foam". at Urban Bean I was told Americans don't understand how true coffee is supposed to be prepared and served. As someone who started drinking " Un cafe expres" in Paris in 1967 I do not need to be told how my coffee should taste or how it should be served. Hello Starbucks where I can still by a bag of french roast beans and get the coffee drink I like served to go. read more

In my book, there are very few businesses to which 5-star reviews don't do justice. In these extremely rare cases, it doesn't matter how well the reviews brimming with detailed descriptions of the business are written. They inevitably fail to capture its awesomeness, not because the descriptions are inadequate or words don't sound accurate, but because there are things about the business that are inexorably left out of description: things that cannot be represented by words; excesses of wonderfulness that words cannot describe. In some non-western literary traditions, when a poet (mostly male) wants to describe his beloved, he starts with describing both her physical and mental beauties with the hope of conveying to the reader the awesomeness of the beloved. He may write that the beloved's hair is darker than the darkest night and longer than the longest night of the year; that her eyes are bigger than those of a gazelle; that she smells better than musk; that she's tenderer than rose petals; that she's more caring than a self-giving mother. After exhausting words, the poet usually finds himself unable to fully carry out the task he's set for himself (i.e., describing the beloved.) It's when he has no choice but to finish with saying that in addition to what he was able to put into words, his beloved has "the thing." "The thing" is a place-holder representing all that cannot be described and indicates the poet's insufficiency of words--the very thing at which the poet must be good. Let's save us some time and get straight to the point: Rustica Bakery has "the thing." It is one of those rare businesses that call for an ode, not a review. Rustica Bakery requires a paean, not stars. Don't words like rich, chocolaty, and brownie-like, although accurate, lack the power to describe Rustica's chocolate bouchons? How can words like crisp crust, flavorful, and excellent with butter and jam do justice to its French baguettes? Who in their right mind thinks "a brioche French toast slice prepared with orange-flavored syrup, frangipane, and sliced almonds" depicts Rustica Bakery's Bostock? Isn't it true that something vital is always left out of description, regardless of the words one picks to describe the bakery's pistachio chocolate Danish or the vanilla éclair with chocolate glaze? "The thing" is not at all poetic; it is at best a hedge--it's what the poet must avoid as it reveals his inability with words. It seems very odd that a poet draws on something non-poetic. But if he wants not to betray his beloved, he has no choice other than letting the uncreative word "the thing" betray him. The same is true about my review of Rustica Bakery. It's not a real "review." It reveals my failure in writing a true review. But if I write a "review," I would betray my love of Rustica Bakery! read more

Rustica Bakery - Rhubarb custard pie - Bakeries Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Best. Bakery. Ever. Rustica's breads are, absolutely, the highest quality loaves you can find in this city. Their levain, a sourdough, is fantastic. Baguettes rival what I've had in Paris, though I'm sure a Parisian would disagree. But if you really want to die "le petit mort" in public, get the currant scone. It is so unbelievable good that it is the ONLY thing I order here. Why? Because it is completely, unbelievably perfect. Crunchy, buttery, rich goodness speckled with little chewy tart pieces of currant. The poseurs who get the chocolate ones are misguided, as the chocolate overwhelms the butter flavor. read more

This is a very interesting European-style bakery that is a carboholic's dream but a Crossfitter's nightmare. I come here when I need a cozy place to work whenever I decide to work from home (which is often during winter). I try to avoid the carbs but indulged on a grilled cheese sandwich once that came with a very nice, green salad. This place seems to be quite popular and busy. I was surprised at how full it was on a Thursday morning. Don't these people have jobs?!? Only a few had their laptops out like I did. Everyone else was just conversing and relaxed as if they were really in Europe! My only gripe about this place is there's very few outlets to plug in your devices. It sucked when I got there and the few ones were all taken up. I opened up my laptop and saw battery level was 0% and I had a conference call in two minutes! I had to scramble to Caribou and plug in my laptop and spend about an hour on a call without even having a chance to order my coffee! People must have thought I was ridiculous to enter a business and spend an hour without making a purchase. Once I was done with the call I bought my coffee at Caribou as a token of goodwill even though I'd much rather have had the coffee at Rustica. So I went to Rustica afterwards and my laptop batter had sufficient strength to go without a charge for a few hours. I had my "second cup" which was a delicate Colombian light roast (single origin) and then ordered my grilled cheese sandwich a bit later. I probably won't come back much because I really don't like carbs. I just started crossfitting and I'm more conscious of how I eat and how my energy levels are affected by what I eat. So, I'll probably return for some coffee and to get work done. For those of you on that YOLO mindset regarding carbs, this is a fantastic place to get your fix. :) read more

I came for the croissant(around 10 on a Sunday) and were a little disappointed because it was a little stale to be honest. But I also got a savory goat cheese and caramelized onion pastry that was incredible as was the coffee. This place is very very crowded on a Sunday morning so be prepared to elbow for a table. I also bough some bread which was also quite good and only 5 dollars! read more

My hat is off to whichever crooked genius has the audacity to charge $11 for a breakfast sandwich the size of a post-it note. Though I must admit, the price on the menu was pennies compared to the wait that followed my order. I've had minor surgeries wrapped up quicker than the to-go box they handed over to me. When confronted about an unreasonable wait, the employees were nice enough to apologize as I'm sure they were busy on a Monday morning. Though they were likely only pitying me and the fact I paid and extra dollar for the mere suggestion of melted cheese. But no, I'm looking at you, owners, twirling your mustaches behind your mark up and insistence that "you don't just pay for the food, you pay for the atmosphere." As if you couldn't be any more heavy-handed and tired by naming your restaurant "Rustica". I have a suggestion for you, and I won't charge $11 for it. You're a Starbucks with a dress on. Stop taking yourself so seriously and give me my goddamn sandwich. read more

Everything I've had at Rustica has been the best I've ever had. The best latte, the best lemon scone, the best vanilla scone, the best eclair, the best chocolate cookie, the best ginger cookie, the best Bostok (okay, that last one's not hard, I've never had a Bostok before....but this thing has changed my life.) At first I withheld a star b/c of the ambience. But I no longer care about that. I would gladly sit on a concrete bench on the shoulder of 94 in a rainstorm during rush hour as long as I had a Bostok from Rustica and a latte from Bull Run. read more

Time for an update, since a few things have changed since my last review. For one, the bow-tied Bull Run (now Dogwood I think, but that's another story) baristas aren't there anymore. Sad loss of eye candy, I know... but before they left, they taught this staff to make lattes just as delicious and beautiful (I love a good latte leaf). As the trailblazer for third wave coffee in Minneapolis, this remains one of the best places in town for caffeine. Sigh of relief. Rustica is also one of my favorite spots for work meetings because, but for weekend mornings, there's almost always a table available and free parking is ample since it's in a strip mall. It's not the best place to get work done though because they are lacking in outlets. And lastly, but not leastly, from chocolate croissants to baguettes to bostoks... everything I've ever eaten from Rustica's bakery case has been goddamn delicious. read more

Rustica has some great pastries. The croissants are lovely, and they have something called a butter tart or something like that which is worthy of great praise. I read some of my fellow reviewers' praise for the coffee, and as one who adulterates their morning brew with ample dairy and sweetener, I'm not qualified to tell you whether it's great coffee or not. What I will say is that the service has been lacking each time I've been there. After paying for your food and drink, you stand by and wait for them to make your coffee, which can take far too long. The staff is also not extremely warm, or at least hasn't been during my visits. As you can tell from the many positive reviews, they make good stuff ... great stuff ... just don't expect for every experience at Rustica to be as good as their baked goods. read more

Rustica, it's not you- it's me. Or rather, it's Minneapolis. I am so totally underwhelmed by your bread, on a regular basis. Charging over $4 a loaf for bread the size of a softball should be illegal. Bread that dries out in a matter of hours, leaving you with only a hockey-puck husk of the bread's former mediocrity, should be regulated by a Board of Bakers or at least sold with a complimentary jar of jam to get you past the honeymoon phase. Do I sound bitter? Bread is life, my friends, and this is larceny. BUT I wouldn't know it was larceny if there weren't six other bakeries doin' it better than you. Were you based in Denver, CO (the Bakery Desert of America) I'd patronize you on the daily. But you're not. You're here, where I have choices, and that works against you. Your pastries are fine. Your butter cake is like two day-old croissants panini-pressed and dunked in glaze, which is aight. Your brioche, as mentioned before, is light and crunchy and fine. Your ginger cookies are not fine, they are freaking fantastic, and that will never change. Also love the huge window with the bench seating, where I plan on spending many days this winter reading and writing with a latte. So we'll continue hanging out. You're just not my first-string bakery. And that's A-OK. read more
