    Stopped by here for a coffee after a run and this place just really isn't for me. What I do love about this spot is the ambiance and space. Seems like a great spot to study or work for the day with different seating options like tables, the coffee bar, window seats. Also, the barista was super quick and kind, especially when they were the only one behind the bar and taking orders. If I ever come back, I would probably opt for a pastry since it looked delicious. I really disliked my coffee to the point of trying to drink at least half of it before just throwing it away. My friend also tried it and thought it tasted rancid. When I went up to order I ordered a vanilla cold brew. The barista corrected me and said their vanilla was called Sweet Gallium, and it was their 'take' on vanilla. I said fine since I assumed it would still taste similar. The barista asked if I wanted dairy or oat for milk - I asked if there was almond and they just repeated what they said which was just a bit odd. I can't to oat so I opted for dairy - I probably should've asked what that meant because it ended up being whole milk. When I paid this iced coffee was over $7, which is outrageous. I get cold brews with flavors and milk alternatives in North Loop funky shops for less. The barista made the drink quickly, and was super passionate about it - they explained how Sweet Gallium is a type of flower and it adds a beautiful flavor to the coffee. They also let me say 'when' for how much milk I wanted which was nice since I didn't want a lot of whole milk in there. The Sweet Gallium tastes nothing like vanilla and the coffee was extremely acidic. The mix of the two made it taste like it was spoiled. I love a rich roast but this just wasn't for me. Someone else's review said that their coffee was a bit sour and I definitely agree. I would come back and maybe try a matcha, but the price has me turned off overall.

    I've been to the St. Paul location and this one is equally as cute! Lots of plants and natural light. The barista was so friendly and knew everyone coming in. It seems like a great neighborhood meetup spot with a few tables and bar seating area. It also had strong wifi for working. We went on a Friday mid morning and snagged a table to fit 3 people. It was pretty consistently busy throughout the day. The prices are a little crazy, although a lot of coffee shops are getting to be over $7 for a small latte. I tried the specialty iced vanilla latte and it was good! They also had a couple of pastry options. There's street parking out front. Worth a try for the welcoming vibes!

    Not my favorite. Staff was super friendly but it was a little more expensive than other places and not as many milk options.

    I drive past this place all the time and when I finally stopped in I was so happy I did. Parking is located on the street or across the street. The space itself is very small and fills up fast. However the hospitality is second to none. I really enjoyed my matcha latte and I can't wait to stop in and try the pastries next time!

    Nice atmosphere (for the size). Baked goods are fresh and delicious. The barista was very friendly and the pore over was great! Good to step away from the chains.

Meanwhile the staff greets you with a kind smile that makes you feel welcomed in. I had the Ube Latte and the mixed Momo platter. The Ube Latte is well balanced between sweet Ube flavor and coffee and cream. The mixed momo platter comes with meat filled and potato filled dumplings that come with a spicy sauce for dipping. They are perfectly plump, warm and delicious and lend themselves well to a cold day. Absolutely recommend this hidden neighborhood gem if you're in the area (or even if you're not! It's worth it!)

They had a few cute items for sale, like momo merch, stickers and more. I got the black sesame latte which was strong but good. We also ordered potato and chive momos and they were decent. I think it could have used a bit more flavor, a bit starchy tasting. But the soy sauce helps a tiny bit. Would for sure come back to check out more. I was a bit shocked that they had to put signs on some of the lower tables for people to not put their feet on them. In a cafe/food establishment that should be common sense but I definitely get it. As it was busy it was a bit loud but I really like the vibes and aesthetic of this cafe!

I am not usually a coffee drinker, but this place has great lattes. So smooth and not too sweet, which I love!

The lobby itself is very stylish, with big dark bookshelves, large plants, big fireplace, cozy and comfortable seating, tables, a pool table, etc. When we visited it was decorated for Christmas and that alone was worth the visit! The coffee was delicious and service good. My husband and I both ordered the seasonal "Shakespeare's Fool" which was delicious in decaf and regular. The latte art on top was a plus! The only downside or thing to know is that this location will not accept Spyhouse giftcards because it is part of the hotel. I came wanting to use one, so this was a bummer but I understand and the barista was very apologetic. As a side note about the business, it's impossible to check your giftcard balance online. So while I'd like to use my giftcard, I'm unsure if I will realistically be able to soon!

    Caffetto is the quintessential Minneapolis coffee shop--they've got tasty, reasonably priced drinks…read more(including a robust selection of teas both hot and iced), good hours, and a real fun punk cafe vibe (lots of fun graffiti and vintage pinball machines). I think Caffetto kind of corners a market that no one else has by being open so late--most coffee shops are barely open past noon, and they're open until midnight! I've personally spent many a late night there finishing up work--it's a really cozy atmosphere, and the selection of pinball machines in the basement are the perfect study break activity. The staff are all great and even when there's a line, they get through it quick and are still able to offer great recommendations--while I usually prefer an iced green tea with no ice, I've tried the lattes, cold press, Thai coffee, and hot chocolate and have genuinely never had a bad drink here. The only thing is to make sure you watch your step if you're walking in the basement--even though it has seating and pinball and the bathroom, it's more of an unfinished space with uneven flooring and I personally rolled my ankle and fell there last year haha.

    I jetted from work early to try this coffee shop because I needed a change of scenery and…read more.. well... it's Tuesday. :) I was surprised to find that the cafe was packed at 2:30 in the afternoon, but got lucky enough to snag an intimate table in the corner, perfect for reading a book in peace! I had a triple decaf almond milk latte that tasted like it was caffeinated to me but didn't give me the buzz I'm so addicted to, that's when you know it's a good decaf. I love the coziness and the unique artwork in Caffetto. I look forward to coming back at an earlier hour to feed my addiction. But it's great to know I have a go to coffee shop for those afternoon cravings where the decaf tastes just as delightful! UPDATE- 2 hours later: there's additional seating and a pinball machine room in the basement, glad I went downstairs to the bathroom.

The miso cortado was delicious and really stood out, and they have a great variety of specialty drinks. The service was also extremely kind and welcoming, which I genuinely appreciated. That said, the space didn't quite live up to the hype. The location felt a little unfinished. Minimal decor, unfinished flooring, and no truly cozy seating made it feel less like a place you'd want to settle into for a while. While they encourage people to linger and don't offer Wi-Fi (which I respect), the ambiance doesn't quite support that intention. It felt more like a quick in-and-out stop, even though that doesn't seem to be their goal. The atmosphere was chill, with vinyl records playing in the background, which was a nice touch. I just wish the overall design and seating matched that relaxed, stay-awhile vibe. Great coffee and kind staff, but the space itself didn't fully align with the experience I was hoping for.

    So glad this place is on Yelp now so I can rave about it!…read more I came in the day after it opened and was super impressed that everything was already running so smoothly. They have a lot of super intriguing drinks that I can't wait to get back and try, but I had to have the black coffee for my first stop. They only do pour overs and mine was great. And so were the beans I took home. It's really nice to see a coffee shop that cares about their beans more than syrupy drinks. The shop itself is small but has some nice seating options. One thing to note is that they don't have WiFi so this place isn't really meant for the work from home crowd. I can't wait to get back here

The interior design is stunning and the fireplace adds a cozy touch. It's always packed no matter the time of day, which shows how popular it is. Unfortunately, the coffee has been consistently disappointing for me. For such a great space, the drinks just don't match the atmosphere. Service has also been a letdown. It feels rushed and transactional, and the staff does not come across as very friendly or welcoming, which takes away from the experience. They do have a nice selection of baked goods, including Cardigan Donuts, which is a plus. Parking is typical for the North Loop. It can be a bit difficult to find right nearby, but there are plenty of options if you're willing to walk a few blocks. Overall, it's a gorgeous space and a great place to meet up or sit for a bit, but the coffee quality and service are what hold this location back for me which is sad because I love other FRGMT locations.
