Coffee counter
Teri A.

Loved the warm and comfortable ambiance. Black coffee was good! Service was excellent!

Spygirl
Sarah M.

Was staying at the hotel and was so lucky to have Spyhouse downstairs as I was able to get freshly made coffee every single morning. I am not usually a coffee drinker, but this place has great lattes. So smooth and not too sweet, which I love! I wish they had a medium-sized drink as their small is too small, and the larger one is a bit too big. I've always gotten the bigger size and ended up finishing it throughout the day!! My favorites - chai latte, spygirl (lavender/honey latte), solid gold (turmeric latte). Still have a few others that I want to try while I am still in MN. Definitely going to miss this spot when I go back home!

This is a unique Spyhouse location as it's in the lobby of a beautiful hotel that is in an old bank building. The lobby itself is very stylish, with big dark bookshelves, large plants, big fireplace, cozy and comfortable seating, tables, a pool table, etc. When we visited it was decorated for Christmas and that alone was worth the visit! The coffee was delicious and service good. My husband and I both ordered the seasonal "Shakespeare's Fool" which was delicious in decaf and regular. The latte art on top was a plus! The only downside or thing to know is that this location will not accept Spyhouse giftcards because it is part of the hotel. I came wanting to use one, so this was a bummer but I understand and the barista was very apologetic. As a side note about the business, it's impossible to check your giftcard balance online. So while I'd like to use my giftcard, I'm unsure if I will realistically be able to soon!

Amazed by the ambiance here. Loved the warm and earthy decor with the tropical plants and open seating space. Reminded me of being at a resort. Very classy. I ordered my favorite drink from there called the caramella. Drink made to perfection by the friendly baristas. Wait time wasn't long.

Spyhouse is connected to a hotel so you'll get a mixture of people staying and people working from home that decided to spend their day here. Where you order is tucked away in the back. When we came on a Tuesday around 230pm it wa's a 2 person operations. They seemed a bit frantic as a line of 6-7 was starting to build up. Not as warm and inviting as the place was. When we asked what a few of the drinks were, you could tell they were over it. But it was just a brief interaction that it didn't affect me much. They also had pretty soft spoken voices so when they make your drink and call out your name, don't be too far otherwise you might never hear them. We ordered: Solid Gold which has turmeric, ginger, and oat milk latte. It was sweetened with maple syrup and topped with pepper. Tonic Youth which is a mango vanilla espresso tonic garnished with rosemary. It comes iced only. I enjoyed the tonic youth a touch more. I think the mango wasn't quite strong but the rosemary came out quite well. The solid gold was yummy but turmeric drinks are one shake too much from being overbearing and I think that was the case. I would order it again but ask for a dash less of turmeric. The ambiance is picturesque. The lighting feels nature. There is enough greenery in the place to help you feel grounded. There are tables, solo desks, comfortable seating, places to chit chat, places to work that gives you options of how you want to spend your time here. There is also a pool table. We played it. But the people working nearby didn't look too happy. Oh well! We had fun. There was a ledge on the planters where we set our drinks.

I love Spyhouse! This was my first time going to the downtown location. It was so spacious and cozy. A great place to work or enjoy coffee solo or with a friend. The solid gold is a favorite of mine. I love that it leans more towards a spicy flavor than sweet. Always a hit! Luckily, this location wasn't super busy and I was able to get my drink pretty quickly. Being that it is located downtown, the parking situation isn't my favorite. But I'd definitely go back for a visit!

Iced matcha with almond milk
Keanna W.

In town for work and wanted to find a local spot for matcha. This place turned out to be such a gem! It's not your average coffee shop--it's more of a cozy lounge vibe. As soon as you walk in, you notice the energy: people working on laptops, taking calls, catching up with friends, or just relaxing by the fireplace or at the high-top tables. The staff at the counter were friendly and welcoming, and the menu is straightforward and easy to navigate. I also loved that they have seasonal fall drinks, which was a nice touch. Definitely a great place to work, hang out, or just enjoy a good drink in a laid-back but stylish setting. What I ordered: An iced matcha latte with almond milk and honey. It was just right, without being overly earthy or sweet. I also ordered the chia pudding - which reminded me that I could do this delicious and nutritious breakfast at home. The peanut butter complimented it well and I liked the touch of fresh strawberries and strawberry preserves, it sweetened it wasn't too sweet. Definitely would go back again!

Breakfast sandwich and honey gold late
Sean K.

Got a bacon breakfast sandwich and a honey gold latte, both were delightful. The bacon breakfast sandwich was a bit hot coming out of the oven but after it cooled down a little bit, it was great. I love the honey gold latte here. It really gives me a good start to the day. Service is nice and the ambiance is great. I love this place.

Getting some work done!
Victoria Z.

Docking off a star because the barista wasn't exactly welcoming. Didn't say a word to me when putting in my order which was awkward and off putting. I used to work in food service and get that people might have off days but a simple "Thank you" or "have a good day" would have been enough. But wow what an incredible space! Beautiful decor and lots of seating. They have a fireplace, pool table, and bar all in one place. Great space to get some work done. Jasmine tea lemonade: 9/10 liked that this was not too sweet! Almond croissant: 6/10 a bit overbaked and dry. More dense and not as fluffy as I would have liked

Entrance
Mark M.

In downtown Minny for work and a friend from home recommended spyhouse. Easy to find entrance inside of the Emery Hotel. Open at 630am which is perfect bc a lot of coffee shops don't open til 7am. Barista was chill. Nice and cozy vibes with plenty of seating. Cold brew is smooth with a hint of chocolate. Sandwiches were also great for on the go. I also grabbed a cold brew growler which was nice to have around the hotel room.

Iced Caramella
Olivia K.

I came in for a nice cold drink of coffee and this place hit the spot for me! First of all, the Caramella had just the right amount of sweetness. They really do their caramel/vanilla syrups well - doesn't taste artificial at all. Second of all, it was a hot day outside and the A/C inside blasting plus the ice in the drink instantly cooled me down. And thirdly, the space inside is really nice - it's super spacious and nicely decorated considering that it's inside the lobby of a fancy hotel.

Strata
Marlene G.

This is one of the few coffee shops in the area open on Sunday, so the line was super long. Once ordering the food and coffee came quickly though. The coffee is super tasty and I got the Mill City Strata - an egg/quiche-y breakfast item on top of a focaccia. This Strata was sooo yummy and warmed up it was super cheesy as well! I would highly recommend this place if you're in the area, or need a nice spot to work!

Iron ranger and seasonal tiramisu latte
Laura P.

Really stunning coffee shop. It is technically also the hotel lobby?? The vibe is great and there were plenty of spots to sit and do work on a weekday. Lobby WiFi was good. Service was fine, they made coffee and I tipped. I got the seasonal tiramisu latte which was great, but the iron ranger sandwich was kinda trash. A very wet, mushy, lukewarm sandwich. Thought it would be maybe toasty and warmer. Would recommend coming to try coffee but maybe do lunch at their connehotel restaurant.

I ordered the French Toast Latte. It was good, but I think I should have gone with one of the seasonal drinks if I was looking for more of that "wow" factor. The veggie momos took about 20 minutes to come out, which seems pretty standard since they're made fresh. The wait didn't feel long at all. They arrived hot, and the filling was delicious mostly cabbage and potato. The portion was generous and filling. I also loved the chili sauce, it had a nice kick without overpowering the dumplings.

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.

This place was practically across the street, so we decided to take a breather from the hectic festivites and come here. Immediately we were greeted with cooling A/C and much-needed silence. Cool and quiet... the perfect escape. The place was decked out for pride with lots of colorful flags representing many of the wonderful ways to be queer. Definitely get bonus points for their allyship. I got a bottled Coca-Cola and my hubbie got a simple cup of brewed coffee. They had a reasonably-sized menu with even some smoothies and such listed, as well as a display of bakery items. A chalkboard showed their three seasonal beverages, which looked fun (though not my cup of tea). One of the employees was very helpful when I requested a cup of ice to go with my Coke; I needed the extra cool down after all the time we'd spent in the sun in the heat! We sat at one of the tables and appreciated leaning back into the chairs with back support for several minutes. Whew! Perked us back up nicely. There isn't a ton of space/lots of places to sit and I was kind of shocked the place wasn't flooded with queers, lol. There was quite the line for the bathroom though, according to my husband. The decor is nice and neat. I think I spotted a small selection of board games you could break out if desired too, which is fun.

I got the breve capp and it did taste a bit scorched. My daughter's LAB iced coffee was delicious. Service friendly and prompt. Bathroom a bit dirty but shared with other businesses.

I had a hard time selecting a place to sit since I wanted to sit in many of the places. The staff was amazing! I ordered a cortado for here, and it was perfect and gorgeous.

It gets an incredible amount of natural light, which makes it a pleasant place to spend some time. I also loved that it's dog friendly. The seating, however, is a bit of a mixed bag. There's a decent amount of it, but it's not really comfortable and it feels like there's plenty of room to add more seating throughout the space. The staff was very friendly and welcoming, which made for a great first impression. The menu is a little limited, but what I had was excellent. I ordered the light roast coffee and it was super good. I was also happy to see they carry Cardigan Donuts. If you have not had one before, they are absolutely worth trying! The biggest drawback for me was the WiFi. It was so unreliable that it made getting work done almost impossible, which is a pretty significant downside for a coffee shop. Overall, I enjoyed the coffee, the atmosphere, and the friendly staff, but the limited menu, somewhat uncomfortable seating, and especially the poor WiFi kept this from becoming one of my go to coffee shops.

Caffetto is the quintessential Minneapolis coffee shop--they've got tasty, reasonably priced drinks…read more(including a robust selection of teas both hot and iced), good hours, and a real fun punk cafe vibe (lots of fun graffiti and vintage pinball machines). I think Caffetto kind of corners a market that no one else has by being open so late--most coffee shops are barely open past noon, and they're open until midnight! I've personally spent many a late night there finishing up work--it's a really cozy atmosphere, and the selection of pinball machines in the basement are the perfect study break activity. The staff are all great and even when there's a line, they get through it quick and are still able to offer great recommendations--while I usually prefer an iced green tea with no ice, I've tried the lattes, cold press, Thai coffee, and hot chocolate and have genuinely never had a bad drink here. The only thing is to make sure you watch your step if you're walking in the basement--even though it has seating and pinball and the bathroom, it's more of an unfinished space with uneven flooring and I personally rolled my ankle and fell there last year haha.

I had a triple decaf almond milk latte that tasted like it was caffeinated to me but didn't give me the buzz I'm so addicted to, that's when you know it's a good decaf. I love the coziness and the unique artwork in Caffetto. I look forward to coming back at an earlier hour to feed my addiction. But it's great to know I have a go to coffee shop for those afternoon cravings where the decaf tastes just as delightful! UPDATE- 2 hours later: there's additional seating and a pinball machine room in the basement, glad I went downstairs to the bathroom.
