Ok, I need to RAVE about a new menu item called Cheesy Garlic King Croissant. This thing was so…read moredelicious, I had to bid farewell to my diet. I know I come here way too often, but it's been my fav coffee shop for the last 7 years. The restaurant is so beautiful and full of natural light, that it keeps calling me back. Their lattes are as delicious and as beautiful as ever. But seriously, try the new croissant. Service was excellent! I love how I can just keep ordering from my table's QR code.

The lady who was cleaning tables barely cleaned them. I'm not sure if she just wasn't motivated this day, but that's not okay! I was sure to use my cleaning wipes to while down our table as she partially cleaned the table next to me. I ordered the Crème Brûlée coffee which is always good and the brioche egg and bacon sandwich with potatoes. Both are great choices! It's normally pretty busy here especially on the weekends. I went on a Thursday which was less crowded at about 1pm. It's definitely looking older, they should probably refurbish the tables..

The inside is so cool and really gives a historic look into Saint Paul. Everywhere you can find a bustling amount of people having conversations and enjoying coffee. The staff here are wonderful often giving compliments to people coming in and saying hello to the regulars. This is a wonderful neighborhood and a wonderful coffee shop! Now, for the coffee. I love their coffee - whether it's a latte or a Matcha or iced or hot it's always amazing!! (I would gladly drive the 40 minutes out here to have their coffee). Thank you Nina's for continuing to be open under construction and always providing stellar service & coffee!!

A beautiful neighborhood as well as a destination spot. Well established in an historical…read moreneighborhood with the ambience to fit the classic buildings on the block. The cafe was packed on a weekday morning. It's a good thing I was planning on taking a brewed out rather than hanging around. Hot fresh mellow brew and a wide selection of bakery, including hard to find biscotti. The crew was working quickly to keep the orders filled and no one at a table near the counter complained when I was crowded into them from someone rushing in front me..that's how packed it was. As some have mentioned don't expect curbside parking as you may have to walk a block or more from the side streets.

Stopped by Yellowbird to meet up with some friends and had a decent experience…read more The prices felt really high, around $10 for a small latte with one flavor, and it didn't quite live up to that. It didn't have much espresso, so it ended up tasting more like flavored milk. They do offer a nice variety of milk options at no extra charge, which is a plus. but still the drinks are very expensive for what you get. There's some seating inside and parking behind the building, which makes it convenient. The shop was cute but on the smaller side also the tables weren't very clean when we were there. The staff wasn't overly friendly and didn't make it feel especially welcoming.

I was craving a cozy coffee vibe and decided to give this place a go! It was cozy, the vibes were…read moreright, but the service was.... Interesting. This is a small coffee shop almost to the downtown area. There is neighborhood parking all around(free) just make sure you are reading the signs correctly. As I walked in, it had such a cozy and welcoming feeling. The brick, smell of coffee and people chatting really gave this a classic coffee shop vibe! Almost like being in a book! The service... i asked for my coffee iced and to have oat milk. Neither of those requests were fulfilled. Now, I do like hot coffee, so I didn't complain and I will say the coffee was delicious. The temp was perfect for drinking right away. I am lactose intolerant, so I didn't realize I didn't get my oat milk until after I left if you catch my drift haha. The person taking my order seemed frazzled and wasn't very friendly. I had also ordered another baked goods but I guess she didn't hear because upon checking my receipt, it wasn't listed. It wasn't overly busy, but may be she was new? Not sure, but it did leave a bit of a bad taste for this place. The scone was very tasty and I would recommend getting it warmed up. I would give this place a try again, but it's not a place I plan to visit again soon.

Stopped into Claddagh Coffee on a freezing afternoon after lunch with a friend down the road and…read morehonestly, I'm so glad I did! I came in right before closing (like minutes before), but the barista was welcoming, friendly, and recommended the salty dog. It had caramel and chocolate.... I wasn't saying no to this delicious afternoon pick me up. The cozy brick space, friendly atmosphere, and community board gave such a charming St. Paul vibe. I took my coffee to go, but decided right away I'll definitely be back for a December holiday drink or two (eggnog latte and peppermint mocha, I'm coming for you!). HUGE bonus in my book- parking is easy and free as it's street parking.

I typically frequent the original shop on West 7th, yet today was my first visit to the Wee shop…read moreeven though I've driven by it a million times. Parking - tough! Give yourself extra time as there is no designated lot. Contrary, there are plenty of street spots but there's no guarantee you'll get a close spot. Exterior- easy to spot! Cute signage and bonus exterior patio and tables during the warm months. inviting plants and lots of commotion with the surrounding shops and restaurants including the co-op. Interior - cozy! Large window allows natural lighting along with a long horizontal bar with plug ins for remote work. Caution: it's small hence the wee name. If you're looking for large and intimate, travel down to West 7th. Drinks - parallel menu to the original shop. All the Irish favorites and more. Iced, hot, whatever you desire. Food - breakfast sandwiches, pastries, and rotating menus. Service - attentive and quick 4 stars due to parking and sadly my iced americano was a little watery today. I'll still be back. Thanks, Wee Claddagh!!

That big dollop of whipped honey on top is unreal. The space itself is great for getting work done. Lots of natural light, big open windows, and different seating options that makes it feel really inviting. It can get pretty busy during peak times, so finding a seat can be a little tricky but they have a shared table system where you can grab a card if you're open to sitting with others. It's such a fun, community-focused touch and a great way to meet people or just make space when it's crowded. The staff is super kind and welcoming, which makes it even better. They also do a great job with their seasonal drinks and pastries.

Walking in, there are lots of wood accents, stools, booths and PLENTY of plug ins if you want to come here and study/get work done! The service was disappointing to be honest. This place had the vibes to have such a fun crew working and instead we barely even got 2 words for the person who rang us up. The person who made our drinks also had zero interaction. Such a missed opportunity! This is why I removed a star. The coffee: This is one of my new favorite coffees I have ever had! I got an iced whipped honey latte and it was DELICIOUS! The coffee wasn't overly bitter, had good flavor and the whipped honey was definitely a unique treat! Overall, I really did enjoy my time at this coffee shop! It definitely can get busy but don't let that deter you from getting a delicious coffee from these guys! Oh and yes, they do have some snack/lunch/bakery items here to if you get hungry!!

Regardless of that, these spots are so worth it, I will be going back soon!
