Everything came well packaged for travel, hot, and exactly as ordered. The Caesar salad was fresh and delicious, just would have liked the side of chicken cut up for it.

That everything was well packaged and handled with care.

The staff worked as quickly as possible and the location was very busy. The service was super sweet and kind. The patio and outside area is dog friendly but not inside the establishment so keep that in mind. They even sold a variety of mixed goods from various vendors that makes it easy to browse while waiting for your drinks. Used my local coffee passport and it was lovely getting to visit!

Stopped by Honey & Rye and grabbed the monkey bread and a chocolate pinwheel. The monkey bread was…read morefantastic, super soft and flavorful. The chocolate pinwheel was just okay and a little on the dry side. Parking is a bit limited and there's no seating, so this is more of a grab-and-go spot. It does get busy, but the line moves quickly which is nice. Staff was friendly and efficient. They have a large assortment of coffee and other hot drinks, but the real highlight here is definitely the baked goods. They also offer breakfast items that can be heated, which is great if you want something more filling. The shop itself is really cute with a cozy, charming feel. They also have a small selection of items for sale, which adds a nice touch while you're waiting in line.

I faced the impossible task of choosing a drink because everything on the menu looked and sounded delicious. In the end, I went with the salted caramel latte, modified as an Americano with a splash of half and half. It was excellent. Next time I'm in town, I hope I have time to stay for a meal because the food looked and smelled just as good as the coffee.

I enjoyed being in the building and it felt like a welcoming environment. We unfortunately were seated right next to the kitchen and had people always near our table. The service was okay, it was busy, but it was hard to get the refills and the check. The food was average. My girlfriend got a steak and egg breakfast bowl that I wish I had ordered. My sandwich was a little greasy and underwhelming with little flavor. It wasn't bad just not what I want from a place like this. The coffee was underwhelming. We both got separate drinks that tasted watered down. It didn't have a strong flavor or coffee taste. It was weird. Overall this is a cool place, but for the price and quality there are better options.

We had made a reservation and were glad we did as…read morewe got there early and watched many attempt a walk in and not be able to due to the busyness. We had such a amazing server! Our drinks were perfect, timing was a on point. We had a cozy high booth near the bar and it worked just being 2 of us as we got ample people watching. When we attended, the menu was slightly modified due to the staffing shortages that were happening across Minneapolis the presence of ice. However, there were just a few items that were removed, the menu was still mainly intact. There were 2 items my husband had his eye on (Jambalaya and another dish) that were not available, but based on what we experienced, we will totally be back. I got the roasted chicken and found it delightful. I'm looking forward to returning.

The Hilltop, somewhat west of the 50th and France downtown vibe, is the epitome of what a bar and grill should be. There are multiple TVs to watch games, the staff is fun, and the food is fantastic. My Tuna Melt was one of the best, and my wife's chopped salad was great. When I spied pecan pie on the menu, it was pig-out time. That pie was delicious. Everything at the Hilltop is homemade. We sat at the bar, and everyone was friendly. Conversations flowed from us to other patrons to the servers. Wow, that's what a local bar and grill should be about. I loved the Hilltop and will return.

At our table, a couple of their signature dishes were tried and everyone liked them. I had the beet salad. It could have used a lot more beets. Lots of lettuce and cheese and not a lot of other toppings. I got the dressing on the side but it was an oil based dressing and would have been better tossed. Service was good. It was quite loud in there as we hit the end of the lunch service. The cutest Mr and Mrs Claud couple walked in and wished folks Merry Christmas and allowed pics. Very nice. Parking is always a challenge in this area but the nearby ramp had a few openings near the top.

I got a rather simple item (a salad) so this is skewed by that but I plan to try other items on their large menu soon.

The one thing I did find odd is that any toast that comes with your breakfast actually comes out in a separate basket. Mine arrived about 10 minutes before the rest of my breakfast which was the 2 eggs, sausage and potatoes. For me I would rather have it arrive on my breakfast plate because I am one of those folks that likes to dip their toast in their over-easy egg yolks. Arriving before the rest of your breakfast if you hold onto it awaiting the rest of your breakfast you are using cold toast. Everything still tasted good. But I did leave hungry. I actually sat there for a moment thinking do I need to order something else but how would that look. I am not a huge eater -- and typically have a little bit of something left on my plate when I go out for breakfast but this time not so much. First time I have ever taken myself out for breakfast and came home and had a snack.

Good Day Cafe was a wonderful experience for breakfast on my recent visit to the Minneapolis area…read more The restaurant was very busy for brunch, but was very clean, very vibrant, and staff was extremely welcoming to our group of 9. For breakfast, I ordered the Payslie's Favorite Eggs Benedict. This meal comes piled pretty high with guac, tomato, poached eggs and hollandaise sauce, and is served with a side of their delicious homemade breakfast potatoes. It was very filling and very delicious, and honestly one of the better eggs benedict dishes I've had in recent months! To finish off, we ordered some of their beignets. While they weren't quite as good as real beignets from New Orleans, they were a perfect sweet treat to end an already wonderful meal. 5 stars all around! Highly recommend!
