I decided on the raspberry white chocolate scone and a HUGE caramel roll, that I split with my provider. The roll was warmed up and stayed warm the 1.5 blocks I had to travel. Cut this bad boy in half and dug in. So much flavor to it. I love cinnamon rolls but sometime there is too much icing. This was great with the caramel sauce on top. Sweet but not over powering where you fall in to a sugar coma, Al helped I only had half. I think it was about the size of my face. I wish I had stopped by for a coffee in the morning, it smelled great in there. If you are looking for whole roasted beans with different flavor profiles this is your place. Buy a bag and they will grind it for you. SORRY, no pic of the caramel roll, we ate it to fast.

It's just the right amount of chocolate and dessert with a slight crunch from the ruffle chip. It's good. Best to stop by after eating a sufficient meal.

They keep the old, vintagey look with the exposed brick and wood counter and benches, but have had beautiful recent renovations. It does get busy on Saturdays and Sundays from the farmers market and church, plan accordingly!

Their default size unless specified is a small. Husband may need another coffee to get his morning fill. The recovery with the added jasmine isn't too bad. My husband said the oat milk honey latte is decent. Games for folks to play while you have a coffee, tea or snack. A few big carby big donuts that look more about quantity than quantity.

Drive thru option is nice here…read more Grabbed a lemon ginger and added green tea to it and a Snickers mocha with oat milk. They told us after the fact that they are out of green tea bags. :( $11.78 for two drinks, mostly the snickers mocha. That's expensive. The tip push or suggestion feels so in your face here.

They told us after the fact that they are out of green tea bags. :( $11.78 for two drinks, mostly the snickers mocha. That's expensive. The tip push or suggestion feels so in your face here. Their cheap paper cups aren't well insulated and doesn't even help to have the sleeve on it. I couldn't even hold the cup at all to sip it at all. The lemon ginger tea was blah, has a hint of lemon and little to no ginger to it. My husband said the Snicker mocha is good at least.

Good food, nice staff, long wait times, horribly overpriced…read more Very long wait time, we stood at the counter waiting to order for several minutes before we were helped. But the food came out relatively fast. Their prices are hidden on all their menus, probably because they don't want the customers to know that they're charging $7 for all their sandwiches, even the basic ones.

It had been a year since I was stateside. I did a self-imposed ban visting the States thanks to the tariff wars. I decided to lift it, as I missed watching Minnesota Wild games and being in a state that I once called home for two years. A seat sale got me from Toronto to Winnipeg. A rental vehicle got me doing a road trip down to the Twin Cities. I wanted a drink from Caribou Coffee. I have missed this place so much. The closest Caribou cafes from Winnipeg are three in Grand Forks. I decided to visit this one, as it was closest to where I had just had lunch. This cafe is cute. It looks tiny from the outside, but it's definitely full-service. I used the drive-thru. A friendly woman said hi over the speaker. She asked whether I collected rewards. I did and stated my cell phone number associated with my account. She found me and asked what I wanted to order. I saw the cranberry dark chocolate espresso shaker and wanted it in a large. Done! I pulled up to the window. I paid with a credit card. I got to tap my card and then specify a tip if I wanted to. I got my drink. I thanked her and continued driving down to Minneapolis. I sipped this drink. It was delicious. I love dark chocolate. The cranberry added a nice tartness. I certainly needed the espresso in this drink as my day had started at 4:40 am and it was now 3 pm. I didn't even look at whether this drink used milk or oat beverage. I'm borderline lactose-intolerant. My stomach was fine. I check a couple of hours later and it has oat beverage in it. Yes! It was great reconnecting with Caribou Coffee after a year. I love supporting a Minnesota chain. I am happy that I can get my fix in Grand Forks at this location. I'll be back when I'm in the area again. (480)

I tend to forget about it since it shares a parking lot with Burger King. The staff is FRIENDLY! They are always so kind and quick. You can walk up to this location as well which is awesome.

We tried the Classic, Bloody Pickle Rickle, Golden Pickle, Pink Fluffy Unicorn, and several other unique flavors -- each one was interesting and delicious in its own way. The service was outstanding -- friendly, attentive, and impressively efficient even with our large group of 11 people. We also ordered a couple of pizzas, and they disappeared almost immediately because they were that good! One of the best surprises was the back area with old-school pinball machines and a claw machine, which was a huge hit with the kids in our group. We even got lucky and won a few prizes! The whole atmosphere was fun, welcoming, and full of energy. It's easy to see why Half Brothers is such a beloved local hangout spot!

Here I am close to the Canadien border and there is one legitimate brewery close to town. Beer was good and food a bit underwhelming. Had the WC and Hazy IPAs. Both were good with the Hazy outshining the WC. They have a pickle beer which a lot of the locals kept ordering. I didn't try it but it's probably worth a sample. Really only pizza for sustainable food with a for appetizers to go with it. Special for the day was a slice, which was generous, and a beer for $10. The pizza was ok, crust a little doughy for my liking, need to make a decision if it's NY or not. Great stop when in ND, especially if you like craft beer. They had some guest taps as well as their own. If looking for food ok choice, but probably better in town.
