After seeing a viral video on tiktok, I knew I had to come find this place!…read more There is plenty of free parking in the lot. This place is actually a decent size but due to its popularity, it felt very crowded! So possibly plan on taking your drink to go. The service here was good and the man who made my drink was nothing short of a sweetheart! I got the raspberry cheesecake latte with oatmilk. This drink was over $11!! Not what I was expecting! Definitely the most expensive coffee I have gotten! Their menu seemed to have lots of unique and tasty coffees and items! I'd love to come back and try more. Despite the cost, the coffee was very tasty! In my opinion, this is one of the best coffee shops in the twin cities!

El Mars has become my favorite bagel spot lately and easily the best bagels in town!…read more For a sweeter breakfast option, I recommend the French toast bagel with brown sugar cream cheese. One of the staff members actually told me it was his favorite and he was absolutely right. So good! For breakfast sandwiches, you really can't go wrong with the sausage, egg, and cheese on the cheddar bagel (kind of similar to an asiago bagel). Add chive cream cheese and fully commit...MMM! It is a little spendy, but the portions are HUGE. Definitely enough to split with someone or turn into two meals, so it feels more justified once you see the size. Plan extra time to your visit to wait in a small line, they're popular!

Amazing New York style bagel sandwiches! I could not believe the size of the bagels they were…read moreabsolutely incredible & so filling. They have a few different bagel sandwich options you can choose from but can also just get a bagel with cream cheese. When you walk in you order at a counter and they will call out your name once your order is done! They have a couple of tables to sit at inside which is nice. There are different types of bagels & cream cheese options so you can create your perfect sandwich! The pboebe was amazing with hashbrown patties & an egg with cream cheese. It was massive and literally so filling it felt well worth the $11. I cannot wait to come back to try their pizzas!

I have been coming to Crossroads Deli for over 25 years. September 2024, the brothers ( Scott and…read moreStu) sold the business to a corporation which owns approximately 5-6 other restaurants. I immediately started to worry. Unfortunately my worries have slowly " come true" ...and with an extremely upset heart, Crossroads has changed. Scott and Stu had dedication and sheer love of cooking and baking with the BEST of ingredients and exquisite rare perfect use of spices. Their flavors in everything they touched were some of the VERY BEST I have experienced nationally and in my home state of NY where my father taught Biochemistry in the Bronx at Einstein Med School (1955-1980) and where my intense passion for Delicatessen cuisine originated. Coming almost daily to Crossroads truly made my day! I adored EVERYTHING they created. Even shipped a large lemon coconut cake to mom's beloved 90 year old boss at Scarsdale Medical Center 8 years ago! Today: Their rye bread with caraway seeds was identical to Grossinger's. Now almost zero flavor. The broasted chicken if served hot fresh out of the cooker is still excellent. Some of the original spices gone. The lemon coconut cake has zero real lemon flavor just deep yellow coloring, Their pastrami and corned beef also lost 1/3 to 1/2 of their original flavor plus the size of the sandwiches 1/3-1/2 the original size. The new main dishes are almost tasteless. Their original recipes for matzo ball soup, etc are still good - - vary 8-10 rating. They no longer use as much/ perhaps any butter in their coffee cake " breads" which used to be a 10. Many cookies and tiny pastries in the same display case are still good. Compared to many other restaurants today they are now just " an ok". Gone are the days when Crossroads Deli was " TRULY SPECTACULAR "......

It's been a few years since my last review of Crossroads Deli, but my rating remains high. Their…read morematzo ball soup is one of the best versions available in the Twin Cities. Today I tried their Roast Beef on Weck, which is carved roast beef on a type of roll called a Weck (a Kaiser-style roll topped with coarse salt and caraway seeds.). The restaurant was busy, and this is not a trendy place! I'd be surprised if there was anyone in the restaurant who was not of Medicare age (which also describes me; I'm not being ageist, just truthful). This is something that is available for lunch, during the week (not on weekends). Previously, I wanted to order this before. It was at the beginning of the lunch hour, so unfortunately the end pieces were cooked well-done. I asked if they would cut from the center, which is much more rare, but they wouldn't do that. This time, we came later and I could see that the roast beef was gloriously rare, which is what I like. The sandwich was quite enjoyable because it was juicy and flavorful. It comes with a side of cole slaw which is vinegar based (which I liked, but isn't traditional in the Midwest). It's difficult to find good, rare roast been in the Twin Cities, so this was another good find. My wife had the matzo ball soup, which remains high quality. The beef on weck sandwich (with coleslaw) was nearly $20, which is a bit on the expensive side. The service is spotty. It depends upon who is your waitstaff person (I knew it would be slow based on our previous experience with this person).

Really the only problem I have with this location is one employee. She has been at this location…read moresince it opened (I think). She is incredibly rude and unapproachable. It's like every customer is a bother to her. I am not sure what her deal is, like maybe she has a social issue or what, but every time I go there (and it's not that often) this woman is working and she is horrible at customer service. She should not be dealing with customers. I find it hard to believe you would not know to whom I am referring. Other than that, Bruegger's is pretty consistent from location to location. I've never had an issue with the quality of the bagels.

So I got a half dozen of bagels: two onions, two everything, and two Asiago. Superb! The everything bagel was super yummy and I hadn't eaten the others yet. Because they're freshly baked, it's best to eat them the same day because they get hard after 24 hours. There's a lot of seating inside and it's very inviting. I will definite return here before leaving Minnesota.

Shame on you Bruegger's Plymouth. I ordered online and…read morearrived at the time specified on the order. When I walked in I did not see my order in the appropriate place where they put online orders. After 10 minutes of standing and waiting for my order I asked a man at the cashier station if my online order would be on the shelf labeled online orders and he said yes. After 5 minutes I approached the cashier again and asked if the bag on their counter could be my order. It was. Here are the complaints I have: My order sat on a counter by the cashier for over 15 minutes The bag was greasy as hell all over and got on my new seat covers The cream cheese container was on top of all the bagels and it was nasty and greasy. Thanks for the cross contamination-gross One of the bagels inside the bag looked like someone ran it over with their car. 2 of the bagels were not sliced, as requested. DO BETTER and stock your napkins- you had plenty of staff available!

It's a nice to stop for a bite before heading down the lake front for a walk. They had a gift stores attached so it was fun to see what is being sold there. The place is not very loud for conversations.

Are the areas I mean the location is very close to everything. There they threw was very busy and this is not the first time I come to this area And I always noticed so. They have seating outside and inside. There were at least three employees if not more. I was there for one minute before someone talk to me And said they would be with me shortly. I placed my order which is very simple and I got it and it was very tasteful. I sat outside since it was sunny. The business itself is very new and classy and they have many classy businesses on the other side.

THe drink was filled with ice, no malt flavor and the most bitter coffee to the point where it was undrinkable. The chicken biscuit, while almost tasty, came with a half biscuit on top.

Slightly eclectic throw-back vibe, very friendly service, excellent espresso beverages, and a nice assortment of creative wraps and sandwiches (alongside other food items). It's a nice place to spend an hour or two catching up on emails, though it can be busy (and a bit noisy) at certain times of the day. Parking is easy, with a dedicated lot out back and free two-hour street parking out front. One random noteworthy thing is that they have the nicest take-out coffee cups I've seen anywhere (see photo), with a sturdy design that makes it a pleasure to hold while also providing extra insulation. It's a small thing, but it's actually the first thing that comes to mind when I think of Munkabeans!

When I entered inside, not a whole lot customers inside but I came in the early afternoon. Baristas were helpful. Prices were reasonable on the menu and they had your standard typical coffee drinks with flavored syrups if you like to add it. I asked the barista what his favorite drink was, and he recommended a honey latte with something else added into it that I forgot what it was. I decided to give it a try and it was pretty delicious. Sweet but not very sweet. Definitely tasted the honey. The quality of the drink was good, and service was quick. Lots of seating and local art. Nice place if you're in Hopkins
