This place has the best matcha in town!…read more There are so many places that serve matcha and have various different matcha mashup flavors, but Tea Drip does it the best. Every time I order a matcha from here, it is worth every dollar. I'm never disappointed. The staff is always friendly and quick with your drink orders. The ambiance is nice as well, although the majority of the time it is quite crowded (rightfully so, it is that good). I highly recommend it!

Don't get me wrong, this is a great Vietnamese inspired coffee cafe in the heart of Duluth. No frills, no fancy packaging. Just excellent Vietnamese inspired coffee drinks. Sometimes places force matcha on their menus because it's what is trending. To me, this is one of them. Atmosphere is crowded. Service is fast and friendly.

One of my favorite cafes in Duluth! They have a big tea latte selection, which is so helpful…read more(because sometimes a girl just wants a tea and not a coffee, you know?) I've tried a variety of their drinks, and my go-to is the Strawberry Earl Grey latte. It's SO GOOD. Nothing is overly sweet, and the tea flavor really shines. My brother likes the mango matcha and my cousin always goes for the vanilla earl grey latte (coffee) or the pistachio latte. We also enjoy their sandwiches too. Would definitely recommend this place! They have a little punch card, where your 10th drink is free, and the owner is so nice! There's waves of people coming and going, but it's not constantly super packed like other places. It's not the biggest place, but you can find seating, and it's a nice place to get stuff done. I wish I could gatekeep this place, but I also want them to be successful. Go try them out!

This little cafe has become one of my must-stop places when going to/from Atlanta! This was my…read moresecond time visiting, with the last visit being a year ago, and I swear the owner looked at me like she'd remembered me from before. Service was quick and friendly! I stopped this time to have my mother try a croffle for the first time ever. We both ordered the Lotus croffle, and I also had a strawberry lemonade. My mom purchased mini pecan cookies to take home. All were delicious! I love that their desserts are just sweet enough without being overly sugary. A perfect laid back cafe with ample seating for studying, quick meetings, or coffee dates.

Cafe Blue is away from all the busy-ness of Duluth traffic and it's one of the few cafes that are…read moreopen before 10/11am, unlike all the "cutesy" cafes in the area. This cafe holds its own moody, navy interior while serving delicious drinks and foods, both sweet and savory, whether you're there in the morning or in the evening. Their black sesame latte has changed me. It's all that I want and I can't stop thinking about it. I got it hot with oat milk so it's creamy, nutty and it doesn't even feel like I'm drinking coffee - which can be dangerous. I got a second one to go before I left. I also had a croissant which is very reasonably priced at $3. I'm not much of a sweets person so depending on the next time I'm in, I'd be curious to try their croffle - I still haven't had one yet in general. Even if I'm not there for a dessert, I'm looking very forward to the next time I have an excuse to stop by this cafe.

This place is always packed!…read more I can't even remember the first time I visited cafe blue but I remember I purchased an iced americano. The cafe is located in a shopping center with shared parking. I love the name and the aesthetic of this place. The staff is always really kind and patient. You definitely don't always get that kind of treatment at local coffee shops. I have tried their Einspanner and can confirm it's my favorite! The tuna smash (not pictured) was so tasty! I love the sourdough a the flavor profile of the tuna. I ate the entire thing so fast. I definitely recommend. The menu consist of a few items and they have a lot of sweet treat options available. I have my eye on the basque cheesecake! Final Verdict: if you haven't visited, you must try! I feel like the prices are worth it considering the quality that goes into their products. I would recommend looking at the menu ahead of time, because they do get busy.

Late night Korean dessert spot in Duluth. They have pretty much all the trendy Korean/Asian…read moredesserts and flavors here. In this visit, my group shared a banana pudding and strawberry tangulu and they were both pretty solid. The pudding was not too sweet, creamy, and caky. The banana slices were also not mushy which I liked. I'm not a huge fan of tanghulu in general, but I liked the strawberries which were sweet, juicy, and fresh. The sugar coating was crunchy and not too sticky which I liked as well. The interior is big, but busy and packed when we went close to midnight on a Friday night. They also have a ramyun station, photo booth, and a cellphone case maker which is fun! I also saw people with laptops hooked up to the outlets, so this may be study spot option as well? They also have a lot of free, ample parking in front. I can see a lot of college kids making this a regular hangout spot.

I randomly stopped by to get some drinks while trying to pass some time while I was in the area and…read morewas impressed with their setup. I actually had never heard of Artistea before but after walking in, I understood the name. It's definitely a nice cute little hangout spot for people who are feeling crafty or creative. Lots of arts and crafts or stuffed animals you can pick from to create. Their drinks are also more on the creative side as well. Very unique drinks with a mixture of ingredients rather than your typical simple boba or milk tea drink. I got the mango coco for myself and the ube coffee for my husband. We loved the taste of both and I'd love to come back and try out some of their other drinks!

Was in the area and my boyfriend wanted to give this place another try! I will say, I absolutely…read morelove the service here. The employees are always so helpful whenever I have questions about a drink or want recommendations. This time, I tried the Mango Coco. I believe it's made with mango slush, coconut milk, salted cheese foam, and sago. It was good! I definitely should have reduced the sugar level though, because it was too sweet for my taste. One thing I really appreciate about Artistea is that the drinks don't taste artificial. During my last visit, I got the Banana Pudding Matcha, and although all I could taste was banana, it tasted like real banana rather than artificial flavoring. Today, the mango tasted real as well, which I really appreciate. As for the activities offered, I think they're such a cute idea and I would love to participate. However, I would personally love to see more practical painting options, like mugs or plates. I just can't quite justify spending $20+ on a small figurine. One thing I would like to mention for possible improvement in future is upkeep. While the activities are cute and fun, it can get messy. We noticed a lot of paint and glute on the tables and chairs. Overall, I enjoy stopping by for the drinks whenever I'm in the area, and the service is always great. I would definitely recommend checking this place out!

Got to check out this cool new coffee shop in Duluth Town Green!…read more The shop is a bit hard to find as it is tucked away on a hill between the donut shop and maple street biscuit company. There's plenty of public parking around this area. The cafe itself is a bit dark as there is not a lot of natural lighting but it is a big space, with lots of seating so great for either studying by yourself or hanging out with a group of people. Not too many staff around but enough for a quiet morning and they were very kind and good service overall. I only tried the iced matcha latte and though not the best matcha I've had, I thought it was still a decent drink! The menu had a lot of interesting drinks so would definitely want to try other ones. Recommended if you're looking for a quiet space to grab a drink and either get some work done or catch up with friends.

Jazz music played softly in the background, the clean tables were nicely spaced out throughout the space, there was a stage set up for live entertainment, and the nicest staff member you could ever meet. At the time, I wasn't interested in dessert, though they had plenty of options available. I decided to order a Tuna Salad Sandwich and it hit the spot. Sometimes the simplest things are the easiest to mess up, but overall, the taste was pretty satisfying. The lettuce, tomatoes, and red onion were fresh, and the tuna wasn't dry- it had a good amount of mayo added to it. Next time, I'll have to try some of their other food and drink options, but for now, I can say that I was pleased with my order and visit. If you're looking for a calm place to escape the hustle and bustle of life, this is the perfect spot.
