I've had coffee from here a few times before and have always loved my drink - their seasonal items are Always fun. It was pretty full on a Friday morning but the line was short and moved quickly. I ended up mixing it up and getting a matcha latte which was flavored perfectly and not overly sweet. The space itself is so bright and open and in the coolest building with multiple other shops. You can enjoy your order at a table inside, walk around the various stores, or take it to go and hop around the area as so many new spots have opened up.

They have a good selection of chilled canned drinks as well plus some food items like yogurt. The space is wonderfully diverse in terms of seating. They had the front window open to the street where you can sit. Inside is an area where people can sit with their kids. The service was very friendly and helpful. The vibe is warm and very welcoming. Know that their baked goods come from Duluth Best Bread which does not always deliver like after a holiday. Parking in a small lot behind the building or on the street.

Empire Coffee was on a few folks' recommendations for Superior, WI, so I thought I'd give it a try…read more It was worth the try! It appears as a small shop in the mix of a "Main Street" style line of buildings but once inside, it's spacious and cozy. Today there was a live performing artist playing and singing in the front of the shop. He was great! It added some really decent ambiance to the coffeehouse. I asked the baristas to make a flavored mocha they'd recommend. They served it up and it was delicious. A little nutty and a little sweet! It could have been just a touch hotter, but I'll know to request that next time. There were two baristas and they were both very pleasant and friendly even though they were a little swamped. I'd definitely go back and have another coffee here, and sit in one of the cushioned seats to enjoy the music if that were going on again!

My friend described the coziness of it as "your grandma's house". We got in line right in time because it filled up right after we ordered. They have tons of coffee and tea options as well as baked goods and hot food of the day items (quiche, frittata, etc). They also do beer and wine and had a solid tap selection. I had the dovetail latte and my friend had an iced vanilla latte and we both loved our coffees. They also have a small craft and trinket section from local sellers which was so cool and made the space feel so homey. It was so good we ended up doing back later that weekend as well. Recommend if you're in the area!

It's unique, it's amazing, and I happen to love bananas. The counter lady told us they have the best cream cheese frosting anywhere. We vote it second best, and that's a really high compliment from my crew. Everything was SO good. Everything. I think I tried 4 types of pastries.

So I got the Apple fritter also as my back up . I asked for a coffee, but they only had drip so I was like yeah this is a special day. No thanks to the coffee. So we weren't feeling too good about what we got from the bakery . We could tell that she really was more of a commercial baker so I really wasn't sure what we're going to get. So I tore a chunk of the apple fritter off, and I was blown away . It was the best apple fritter I've ever had in my entire life. Later that night, I decided to try the maple long John despite the fact that there's custard inside it . It was the best efffing donut I've ever had . I hate custard - but this custard was light and creamy and zero greasy after taste. I will think of these donuts for the rest of my life and all others will fall short.
