W head the basil pesto pasta salad, the BLT and Caesar salad and it was amazing! They were fast, friendly and delicious! This place is the perfect spot for studying, a date with friends or just hanging out. We will be back! read more

I used to come here a lot two summers ago when I worked at Sky Ranch in Van. It was a sweet reunion! If you're looking for a coffee shop that looks awesome and has a super cozy vibe, this place is for you. It's literally an old Victorian turned into a coffee shop. The employees are also very nice! I got an everything bagel, blueberry muffin, and iced latte with vanilla, cinnamon, and brown sugar. I enjoyed everything but the muffin. I normally love blueberry muffins, but that one wasn't for me. This place is also across the street from a Goodwill that I find something at EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. read more

The food is off the charts. Service is great and the atmosphere is right out of a 1930's Novel. Love this place.

You want an antique cafe experience with friendly service, strong delicious coffee, and delicious food? This is your place! It literally looks like you entered an old beautiful home and all the table and chairs are different. I love how the house kitchen is where you order. "The dining room" area, "bedrooms" are all sitting areas. The living room has sofas and tables and plenty of outdoor seating in the large wrap around porch. Such a cozy homey feel. On busy days, I have noticed a bit of frustration from one or two servers but that is definitely not the norm. Everyone has there bad days. Any other time I have gone, they have excellent service. Love antique shopping? This is the perfect location to go after coffee because there is one across the street. read more

Food great. Service great Ambiance awesome. Wanted a quiet spot and had one Will most definitely return read more

used to be a loyal customer but have completely lost all love for this place since the new wave of workers & since they've grown. first - you shouldn't have an app to "order ahead" if it's not going to be made until you get there. second - having one person work a coffee counter is WILD & do they ever try to hurry? absolutely not & will absolutely give awful attitude if you ask for something. the vibes seem great when you walk in the doors but the service is so awful. I think the owners maybe underestimated themselves with the quick growth. GREAT idea for this community. & being open on a Sunday is HUGE. but it's definitely gone down hill. read more

We stopped by this beautiful gem for the first time this morning and we were so impressed! From the exterior, to the cool vibe, to the fast and friendly service, and then lastly to a delicious latte and breakfast sandwich! Wow.. just wow! We visit mineola only twice a year and this place will be on our every visit list!! read more

Service was horrible. Stood at the cash register for 10 minutes and three different employees didn't say one word to us. No "hello" or "we will be right with you". Finally asked if we could order and they said someone will be with you when "we can". Wow. Avoid this place. read more

Nice location Nice décor inside Interesting architecture inside Friendly staff behind counter Seemed to have parallel street parking (parking lot across street says Goodwill only) OK coffee (my macchiato had the sweet at the bottom -- I didn't find out until I was at the end of drinking it -- oh, there it is!??) My quiche had no salt (so I added salt) but was a bit dry/tasteless/fairly hard to slice with a fork -- not sure why. read more

Ambiance is definitely the winner of this shop. It's in an eclectic, historic inn that offers several different places to sit solo with a book, meet with a small group, or Walk around while waiting for your order. Their staff is friendly, smiley, and will bring your order to you. Their coffee is decent (take that with a grain of salt as I am a single-origin coffee snob). They do have several milk alternatives and menu items to accommodate diet restrictions. read more

Love this old Victorian house with delicious food! Tons of coffee flavors. I got a ham, broccoli and cheddar quiche with a cup of soup Toscana Italian. So yummy! There's 3 rooms upstairs with period mix matched furniture. Lovely fireplaces. I'll be back here every time I'm in town. read more

Such a cute lil place to eat. Fun atmosphere and yummy food. Chicken salad was delish!!!!

Absolutely love this place, coffee and food there is really tasty! Super friendly staff and great service.

Such a cute place to stop in at. Good variety of quick food items plus big coffee selection. Rockers on porch.

Cafe Ü is my favorite place to go during fall. It is so beautiful and cozy. They even have a little back yard where you can sit and enjoy your drink or food! The service is always amazing and very quick! I absolutely love going here and would definitely recommend it to anyone in the area!! read more

Very good vibe. I grew up near this small town and honestly was a little skeptical. I stopped in on my way home back in Austin and grabbed a coffee and a breakfast burrito. Coffee was good but that burrito was out of this world. The old house was grand and made you want to just sit down and visit with friends. read more

Great vibe in this local coffee shop located in an historic Victorian Home. A comfortable and welcoming place with good coffee and food.

What a great place to have in Mineola. Cafe U offers top notch coffee drinks, an inventive and varied menu of delicious choices, the bistro salad is my favorite for breakfast. Best of all is the friendly, engaging staff, special shout out to Jeila, who makes a primo latte! read more

Had to come back and rave about Cafe Ü again! I took my parents here for Mother's Day and the food was absolutely amazing. The setting was intimate and quiet, which is so hard to find on a holiday. My mom has celiac and they made her a gluten free sandwich that she loved! There are more gluten free options, so it wasn't the only thing she could eat. My husband strongly dislikes bistro food but cleaned his plate here! I am so impressed by the progress they've made in the last few months! The staff was so awesome to us, made our Mother's Day one of the best!! Thank you guys! Can't wait to go back!! read more

Funky and good coffee. I know the backyard is a work in progress. Can't wait to see it cleaned up! Counter help are super sweet!

It's so cozy! The food is ok but the coffee is AWESOME! I love that they hold bazaars with local crafters and artist, there's so much room and different seating choices, they have a B&B, there is outdoor seating. What is not to love about this place? It's a wonderful addition to Mineola! read more

I stopped in for a hot chocolate on a cold day and ended up having lunch. We had the chicken Caesar Salad and it was absolutely one of the best I've ever had. The combination of the great meal and the wonderful ambience of the beautiful old home really made it an incredible experience! Thank you! read more

OK experience. Could be much better. As noted, cute and nicely decorated. Upstairs tables weren't very clean where we were. Staff all very helpful and attentive. Better grooming would go far though . Food was adequate and timely served. Coffee houses need to have coffee that wows! Mine tasted like it was made with tap water. read more

Good breakfast sandwiches, even better coffee and best place to chill. I enjoyed the open mic night that they have weekly. My father visited me recently from out of state and I took him here. He asked to go again so I know he really liked it. The atmosphere was very relaxing. I may come back and do my work tasks there while enjoying the place and food/drink. read more

Love their muffins.. every flavor. Great quiche and croissant breakfast sandwiches. Good coffee. Delicious smoothies. Friendly service always. Relaxed atmosphere with plenty of places to sit and sip alone or with friends, indoors and out. Artisans sell beautiful wears on the porch once a month.. Sometimes live music. We love this place. read more

Young sweet couple own it and renovating the Victorian. Cute atmosphere and friendly service. Starbucks prices and coffee not as good. Dry cakes too, but maybe it was just an off day. I wish them luck, but consistency is the key in the service business. read more

Very enjoyable place to drink some good coffee, hangout and use the WiFi, and do it on a quiet, small-town street in the ambience of a charming, Victorian home. Sitting in one of the rockers on the porch is all the feels. read more
