The matcha I got was delicious and he loved his maple coffee, it was a bit expensive at nearly $7 for a 10 oz matcha though. The barista was friendly and our drinks came out quickly though! Also they have street parking right out front that's free which was perfect. We chose to sit outside to get some sun, there is a bit limited seating inside especially since we came to do work. Overall a great experience though!

The drinks also aren't overly sweet or flavorful from the additions too.

I thought that showed a lovely sense of community and caring. Yummy drinks and bakery. I had the Ranger - a cinnamon white chocolate mocha - and it was fabulous! I don't like super hot drinks, and the temp was perfect for me. The peach scone was light, moist and not too sweet. Again, just how I like it. If I return to River Falls, I'll definitely stop here again.

Coffee as good as Portland (OR). No lie…read more Waystone is a feel good kind of coffee place - Women growers, Women store owners. Fortunately they were happy to serve me also. Fortunately, because the coffee is, god's own truth, better than I have had in Portland (and MSP, Madison, Chicago). Small store, with wifi and games, plus music in the background. The food is limited, but fine. Good even. But the coffee. Oh the coffee. Coffee that makes you say "where have you been all my life". Coffee that makes you repent of ever having to gone to Starbucks, Cariboo, Dunn Bros, Dunkin, etc. Turn away from the corporate chains of at best average coffee.

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!

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.
