I don't know why I'm reluctant to truly embrace Tous Les Jours, but the simple fact is that you will probably really like whatever you get here. This is one of two new chains with the EXACT same model. They are bakeries with many fresh baked goods, mostly sweet but enough savory options that if you were desperate to make this a lunchtime meal visit you would do just fine. And coffee drinks. Prices and quality are a bit elevated, with an emphasis on freshness. I recently had oral surgery and afterwards I asked myself "okay but what do I really want to eat right now? Something tasty and SOFT..." My mind came to the Milk Cream Bread from Tous Les Jours, which is a decadently soft round pastry with a sweet, creamy filling. They also have fine sweet coffee drinks and a lot of very nice pastries. And, as I mentioned, some decent savory offerings which you might need to ask them to heat up for you. I will definitely crave their sweet stuff often enough to return here numerous times.

Met a colleague here for a checkin. The place was hopping on a weekday morning. We found a table…read morenear the back door which was a bit quieter. They have outdoor seating as well in the back and on the front sidewalk that looked lovely but it was a bit chilly for outdoor sitting. I had an iced latte and a chocolate chip scone. Both were good. Staff was excellent. Orders were filled quickly. My water bottle was filled upon request. They regenerated a receipt we forgot to ask for. Really nice people. I found an on street parking spot but it looked like there may have been a lot in back. Good experience.

I've tried a few coffees but the one we keep coming back to is the chai latte. They're not overly dusty like some other places chais and they are consistently good. It's one of the best I've had in the twin cities. They do weekend tutoring if you need it and host alot of activities for patrons. The staff is always friendly and we love stopping in for our once-a-week coffee shop stops.

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!

I've been wanting to get here for years after hearing about the cinnamon rolls. I was finally in…read morethe area at the right time (after Art in the Hollow which was also amazing!) I managed to snag the LAST cinnamon roll! I am taking the fact it was the last in to account. It wasn't the freshest - and an outside corner piece - so it was a bit dry and hard. However, it turns out the roll is just an easy way to get the frosting in your face. Omg. Delicious, buttery amazing frosting. (Which they did frost at the time of purchase). The place is small but they have an upstairs as well as a nice garden patios.

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!

I really enjoyed the Tamago sandwich which is basically an egg salad croissant sandwich with a bit…read moreof a kick. I liked how the egg salad and cucumbers balanced out the butteriness and crispiness of the croissant! It was a very filling lunch. I came with my sister and we both got different teas. She enjoyed her hojicha tea with a bit of syrup added. I really liked the Po cha / Tibetan tea which was a buttery milky tea. It definitely woke me up. :) I would recommend if you are someone who likes not too sweet, nutty, and not too bitter teas. We both enjoyed the Tibetan momos -- the meat filling ones are definitely soupier which was enjoyable. The veggie dumplings tasted better with more of the chili crisp oil. The mochi ice cream most likely used the ones from MyMochi packs but the cream was nice to have and it was a fun sweet treat! Definitely would come back with family or friends when visiting the cities again. Drinks we got at the front where we ordered but they brought food for us which was nice since we decided to stay in to eat lunch. Seems like it's a nice place to study and work and they have WiFi. The place is nicely decorated with Tibetan decor and plaques talking about the history/background which was cool. There is also better lighting / lamps along the walls if you're studying and need it.

I was honestly surprised by how big this cafe is. It just keeps going! The space is cozy and…read morewelcoming with a nice mix of comfortable lounge seating and firmer tables that seem perfect if you're planning to work for a while. I also loved the individual task lights above the smaller tables. It's a small detail, but it made the space feel really thoughtful. The only downside is that there isn't much natural light, so the cafe can feel a little dark, especially toward the back. The staff was the biggest disappointment. They weren't rude, but they came across as pretty standoffish, which made the experience feel less welcoming than the space itself. I ordered the light roast coffee and, unfortunately, it was pretty terrible. That said, the menu is huge with lots of different drinks and food options, so I'm sure there's something on it that would be a much better choice. I also didn't try any of the pastries, but they looked absolutely massive and definitely caught my attention. Overall, I really wanted to like this place more. The atmosphere is great and it seems like an excellent spot to work or relax for a while, but the coffee and less than welcoming service left me a little underwhelmed. I'd be willing to give it another shot and try something different from the menu.

First time visitor, can't even rate the food because we never received it…read more Disappointed in the very long wait and we ended up leaving without recicieving our meal. Our patience ended when it exceeded 35 minutes for only two crêpes. We went up to the front register twice. The response was just five more minutes. Multiple tables that ordered after us receive their meals and yet we waited. Talk to the manager who claimed that 30+ minute wait is very normal. Well, it's not for us. They were unable to print any receipt to confirm a refund. We will wait for Visa to ensure that our money was refunded.

We started our order with bubbles and at the register taking our order was Moriah. She was very helpful and made sure we had everything we needed. We ordered the Croque Madame and bubbles and sat and waited for our food. About 15 minutes later Moriah brought our food out and greeted us and made us feel very welcomed. We then found out she was the General Manager. We were very impressed that the leadership here leads by example and they step up and do every job. She was a server, at the register and cleaned tables. This is rare these days and not only that she was very high energy and very welcoming. We plan to make another trip to try more items on the menu the food was fantastic and the portion sizes were generous. They also have a beautiful outdoor area.
