Cold Press Cafe is fantastic no matter what you're getting. Breakfast, a scone, or a hot drink…read more They constantly change their hot drink menu by season, so there is always something to try. I am more of a black coffee guy (and i love their coffee), but my wife is always trying the new drinks! The breakfast burrito is a 9/10. Their scones are top notch. Parking can be tight, and the only real complaint there is here, is that it can be a little bit slow if you're using the drive-thru. If you've got a few extra minutes though, it's well worth it.

Terrible customer service. Staff is rude. Almost every table was dirty. Can never get my food or…read moredrinks right. The owner fired the only competent barista who could make my order right and was always nice. Witnessed an employee sticking a $5 bill from the tip jar and pocketed it right into their pocket. Always running out of ingredients. This place is a joke. Called one Thursday morning asking for the owner and was told that he wasnt in when my wife was in there not even 5 minutes before and he was there. How is the owner not there when can see him through the window? Big chain coffee shops are better than this joke.

Very good food and coffee! I love the convenience of the drive through! Great customer service too!read more

Bottom Line: Tasty inexpensive eatery located inside Bikes…read moreBy Bob shop on Highway 12 in Litchfield MN. Generous portions and super reasonable prices equals high value eating. Top Line: I requested an off menu Cubano sandwich and Warren, the friendly owner of Simply Good, said they could make that. So I got the Cubano $8, an included side of sweet pepper slaw (vs the other slaw & chip options), and a 24 oz can of Arnold Palmer tea $1.50 from the cooler. So the whole shootin' match came in under my $10-$15 lunch price window. So it was mighty inexpensive chow. Sandwich was generously stuffed with shredded pork, a couple thin ham slices, pickles, and the mandatory mustard stacked between a couple slices of white bread that proved to be sturdy enough to keep the sandwich together, in spite of getting somewhat soggy as I squeezed the sandwich into my mouth. The taste was on the mark. The taste profile & balance of meat, pickle, & mustard flavors were solidly on target. As noted, the portion was generous & I was plenty full by the time I polished off the whole thing. On my way out I grabbed a couple brownies $2.50 ea for dessert this evening, or whenever I next get hungry after my tasty & quite filling lunch at Simply Good. I'm thinkin' a breakfast trip to visit this fine Mom & Pop shop for a cuppa joe & pastry are on the schedule some morning soon.

On this lunch outing, we were with our daughter and cozied up to the counter. Linda's often has a line waiting for a table. My wife loved her French Dip, and our daughter said her Eggs Benedict was fantastic. I was excited to see liver and onions on the menu, but alas, it was beef liver and tougher than a junk yard dog. Service was fun, professional, and accepting. I came from a meeting and was wearing a stylish, trendy suit, not the usual attire at Linda's. However, I was dealt with just fine. No one gave a rip. Prices are cheap, cheap, cheap.

When you do get sat, the service is fast-- your coffee is always filled and hot! The food comes out fairly quickly and is always hot and delicious. It actually can get pretty loud in there. It is a very old building with an open floor plan, so when a lot of people get in there then start talking it can get to a medium roar, but nothing too loud. It's not like you have to shout at the person across the table so they can hear you. The prices are reasonable and comparable to the prices around the area, and bonus **if you have purchased an Elk River Football card, (and you have the card with you) you can get five dollars off your meal!

I had a salted maple latte, and it was 9.5/10, it was a little more sweet than coffee flavored, but the salted effect was great. My honey had an edge apple cider, which is a hot cider with cinnamon and whip cream (9/10). The atmosphere is nice, there is some nice seating areas, and a boutique. The boutique is overpriced, but fun to browse while you wait for your coffee. Service was fast, but not overly friendly.

We've been eyeing up this local gem since they opened and we finally made the stop! We decided to…read moretry both aspects of their sign out front: coffee + wine. Irish Latte with Coconut Milk: the whisky was subtle and the coconut milk was the perfect pairing (the milk alternatives are oat, almond, or coconut) Pinot Noir: flavorful and a bit dry, exactly as expected Apple Cinnamon Scone: they offered to warm it up and it was perfect. The scone was light and fluffy while the house made glaze gave it a touch of sweetness without being over the top; it melted in my mouth We are definitely adding this to our list of regular local spots.

The store is very compact so if you come at a busy time in the morning or on the weekend be prepared to line up outside, but they do a good job of keeping the line moving. If you arrive early in the morning - before 7:30am you should still have a full selection of donuts - any later you are risking some flavors of being sold out. I will continue to go here any time I am looking for donuts in the morning!

We got two breakfast sandwiches; sausage, egg and cheese on a croissant & the ultimate bagel (sausage, bacon, and ham). Both were excellent. Croissant was buttery and the sandwich was delicious and not greasy. The bagel was also delicious, pillowy and light. To drink we got the BEST fruit tea in the passion fruit flavor. I've been missing these from where I live in California and this was perfect. Second drink was a coconut mocha. Also delicious. Fantastic coffee, no bitterness, and the chocolate coconut flavor was perfect. We went late in the day but they still had a great selection of donuts. We did a box of a half dozen (cream cheese filled, custard filled chocolate long John, maple old fashioned, sugar twist, and two maple bacon long Johns. And the owner was kind enough to give me a bonus fritter. Hands down best donuts in central MN. This is what a donut shop should be. The inside shop is so cute and extremely clean. There are plenty of places to sit if you'd like to enjoy your food or beverage there. 10/10 recommend if you're anywhere near Monticello or wanting a a well worth road trip. Will definitely be back soon!!!
