One of the most beautiful coffee shops in Minneapolis! I tried their citrus flat white and it was excellent. The staff is super nice and there's tons of seating plus they support their community.

I had a great time visiting this cozy coffee shop for the first time today. The ambiance is wonderful & the lighting is beautiful. We ordered three different drinks & my favorite was their special matcha latte, it was absolutely amazing! The staff was also very friendly. Definitely recommend!

Cozy coffeeshop with high-ceiling and comfortable seatings. There is a big long table that is perfect for work. Drinks and Pastry were good. The line can be long and it was often busy in the weekend. It can be hard for a large group to find seatings.

Absolutely stunning interior! honestly one of the most beautiful coffee shop spaces I’ve seen. The high ceilings, warm wood tones, the way everything is laid out! it’s just gorgeous. It has that kind of atmosphere that makes you want to sit and stay awhile. My only small disappointment is that the plants are fake; if they were real, this place would be an absolute masterpiece. The coffee itself is a’aight. I’m still giving it 5 stars because the space alone is worth the visit. It’s the kind of café you come to for the vibe, the ambiance, and the feeling of being somewhere thoughtfully designed.

It was a hard choice to rate this place a 3. But the pastries alone drag it down. If you are a pastry lover, this is not the place. The space itself is really cool. The atmosphere is a young hipster vibe. The coffee is really good. The light in here is amazing, why the plastic plants?
