The past couple visits I've had even though I've tipped I get the most monotone disinterested interaction I'm not a boomer but holy sh*t at least say have a good day. You're making your own shift more insufferable for yourself doing this. My passive aggressive customer service out the window 10 minutes before close order behavior is more friendly than this caribou. They forgot to put a splash of heavy cream in my iced americano (how bruh) and gave me the wrong cream cheese (you even have them labeled). I get better service at the caribou in Maplewood where several shoots have happened nearby and I've seen people fent leaning across the street from. Only in town visiting this is my last visit to this caribou :/

Garbage. Pure and utter garbage…read more I had heard so many good things about this chain's coffee that I have to ask: what happened? Either the coffee used to be better or everyone I know raving about this place has questionable tastebuds. The coffee that I ordered was a white chocolate mocha and it just felt off. As if the milk was not in the best condition or perhaps the melange of flavors did not work. It also didn't help that I kept comparing them to another coffee chain with a mermaid if you catch my drift. Will say that the food options were much better. Was able to get a plain bagel with strawberry cream cheese, but eh, that alone isn't enough to save this coffee chain. It's a shame, too, as they have way more options than the norm and the staff was pleasant. Oh well.

It's difficult to see the screen unless you're standing right by the cashier, so I ended up looking at the menu online while waiting to order. I ordered the small oat milk Apple Pie Latte, and it was delicious! It had a subtle apple pie flavor, and the dried apple garnish on top was such a cute touch. I also tried the Honey Granola with yogurt, which made for a light and satisfying breakfast. The café was clean, spacious, and made for a great place to sit down, enjoy my coffee, and get some reading done. The staff was friendly, the service was quick, and the parking lot was convenient and easily accessible. Overall, I had a great experience and would definitely stop by again!

This place is actually a decent size but due to its popularity, it felt very crowded! So possibly plan on taking your drink to go. The service here was good and the man who made my drink was nothing short of a sweetheart! I got the raspberry cheesecake latte with oatmilk. This drink was over $11!! Not what I was expecting! Definitely the most expensive coffee I have gotten! Their menu seemed to have lots of unique and tasty coffees and items! I'd love to come back and try more. Despite the cost, the coffee was very tasty! In my opinion, this is one of the best coffee shops in the twin cities!

While there's room for more seating to come, the place is nice and clean. A couple of rooms where a small group could study or meet. A deck with a nice view of the lake. A seemingly simple and to the point menu for your coffee drinks. And, a few baked treats from a bakery the owner is supporting.

Parking available in the shared business lot out front, but it was VERY busy on this Sunday afternoon! The interior of this spot is one for the senses: colorful walls, random knick knacks, plants, and plenty of coffee-sipping patrons. While it was a LOT of stimulation, I loved every bit of it. I was so happy to see so much support for this local spot! The servers were so friendly and helpful during my order and pick up process! Incredibly LGBTQ+ friendly. I HAD to go with the Go Bananas option on my iced latte, their proprietary blend of banana, vanilla, and hazelnut that leaves you with the most beautiful flavor! I also appreciated that they have a layered iced latte option...with the shot on top! This spot definitely is one of my favorite hidden gems from the last few years, and might crack into the top five coffee spots in the Cities for me! A MUST VISIT!
