Note: not to be confused with Ember Coffee Co. in Big Lake…read more That said... excellent coffee here. This place is actually kind of awesome. If I describe the environment as being half of the lobby of a new suburban apartment complex, that doesn't do justice to how pleasant it is. Homey, quiet, clean, intentionally designed. When the apartment people give tours to prospective tenants, my confident assumption is that they DEFINITELY show off this area and it probably convinces people to move to this building. The baristas are serious coffee nerds, rightly proud of their single-origin sourcing from farms in Honduras, Costa Rica, and Colombia. My iced vanilla latte tasted great; the mild sweetness from their house-made vanilla was perfect. My friend got a pourover that he loved; he stayed there for about an hour doing some work and was impressed by how long that container stayed warm. If you're arriving by car, there is street parking around the building, but there is also the option of going into the building's garage. They confirmed to me that the ground-level parking spaces are available to customers during their open hours. Also, this is right across the street from the Helmo Ave. station on the new Gold Line. If you're taking that route before 4pm, consider hopping off for one of their impressive coffees!

My friend told me that Blueberry had a really good drink called Strawberry Summer. We got that and my other friend ordered Brown sugar boba. The drinks were fairly priced (cash only), and good.

My friends that are local said that they're caramel delight is one of there better flavors, it has ice blended with milk, caramel pudding, and boba pearls. It's a pretty large cup but very refreshing and not too sweet if you're afraid it's too sweet. They made the drinks pretty quickly and it's perfect to get after having a full meal at Hmong Village. Service is also very quick and it's just a store front, not sure if it's cash only but a lot of the vendors there are cash only. I would try any of of their other drinks on the menu, their strawberry summer looks good and they have additional toppings that can also be added.

This might be the cutest shop in St. Paul. I absolutely love the vibes at Caydence…read more It's part record store and part coffee shop, and both sides are done so well. The record selection is amazing with a great mix of new and used records, plus a super fun section of $2 records where you can fill a bag and find some real gems. The coffee is excellent. The breakfast sandwich is house made and prepared fresh for you, and everything we tried was delicious. The caramel brulee latte is truly something special. It has a full cap of caramelized sugar on top and is honestly exquisite. Service is outstanding. Friendly faces, quick service, and such a welcoming, comfortable atmosphere. There are lots of seating options and plenty of natural light, making it a great place to hang out, relax, work a bit, or browse records. Overall just a fun, feel-good spot that combines great coffee, great music, and great people. One of those places you leave already planning to come back.

The staff are all great! Always happy to lend recommendations and talk music. Most of them are in bands themselves. They've got breakfast plates and pastries but I've only ever gotten some coffee.

SUPER cute coffee shop with a very impressive menu of breakfast fare. I got a breakfast called…read more"Hashbrown Bake Platter" whose name undersells itself; the potato part was a delicious, savory cake with hash browns, cheese, bacon, and sausage in an ideal ratio. It also came with perfectly done scrambled eggs and toast. I got a unique latte as well; I asked the barista for her favorite and wound up with a raspberry & dark chocolate latte that had a surprising shock of bitterness. It was great. You will probably really like the ambience. It appears to have been built out of a lovely Victorian home in Dayton's Bluff, and there is plenty of upstairs seating including cute tables on the landings. There is also a very green patio. Friendly service tops it all off nicely. Their only not-open day is Tuesday, so bear that in mind. There is neighborhood street parking which you may have to hunt around a bit for. I really think you'll enjoy hanging out here!

The staff is always friendly and we love stopping in for our once-a-week coffee shop stops.

This is a small coffee shop almost to the downtown area. There is neighborhood parking all around(free) just make sure you are reading the signs correctly. As I walked in, it had such a cozy and welcoming feeling. The brick, smell of coffee and people chatting really gave this a classic coffee shop vibe! Almost like being in a book! The service... i asked for my coffee iced and to have oat milk. Neither of those requests were fulfilled. Now, I do like hot coffee, so I didn't complain and I will say the coffee was delicious. The temp was perfect for drinking right away. I am lactose intolerant, so I didn't realize I didn't get my oat milk until after I left if you catch my drift haha. The person taking my order seemed frazzled and wasn't very friendly. I had also ordered another baked goods but I guess she didn't hear because upon checking my receipt, it wasn't listed. It wasn't overly busy, but may be she was new? Not sure, but it did leave a bit of a bad taste for this place. The scone was very tasty and I would recommend getting it warmed up. I would give this place a try again, but it's not a place I plan to visit again soon.
