It's one…read moreof our favorite spots, and no matter how many times we go, we still get excited like kids in a candy store. This time (and every other time), I treated myself to the Strawberry Dream--a heavenly combo of fluffy waffles, fresh strawberries, and the perfect drizzle of sweetness. Hubby went for the PB Love, which was pure peanut butter bliss! Every bite was chef's kiss perfection. If you haven't been to Waffle Bar yet, what are you waiting for? It's a must-try for anyone with a sweet tooth!

Waffle bar is a small place in an uptown that doesn't have a lot is seating but good ice cream…read more Located right in Lyndale across from the world street kitchen, it has a small parking lot and a few tables inside to have your ice cream. The first thing you notice is the smell of fresh waffles. And it's lovely. They have a selection of different creations and specials that you can order from. And if you are not in the mood for nice cream, they also have some interesting drinks you can try like bubble tea and smoothies. But try the ice cream. The ice cream is creamy and delicious and the creations, while not cheap, are very tasty. The staff is friendly and helpful and will assist you if you have questions or not able to decide. We like this place for a sweet treat or a special celebration.

Had to get my hand on the Dubai strawberry cup!…read more They aren't on display as they make them fresh to order so that was nice- yummy and delicious but a tad expensive Cute interior with the flower walls and pink decor, it's nice to have some dessert/coffee shops open until late They serve everything from waffles,crepes, middle eastern sweets like baklava, milkshakes and specialty coffees Located in a strip mall , parking can be limited

Food: decent Service: good…read moreAmbiance: cute and bright. The outdoor chairs and tables needs some cleaning though. They were covered in dust from the road. My friends and I went to Yummy Bites for the first time. We got: Tiramisu latte Dubai chocolate Dubai chocolate pancakes The tiramisu latte was decent. It was a little light in flavor until I got to the end and tasted the coffee powder on top. The Dubai chocolate was pre-packaged, so I didn't have extremely high expectations. It was also decent. The pancakes were good. They were mini pancakes covered in chocolate, pistachio, knafeh, and strawberries. This was way better than the chocolate bar! If they made their own Dubai chocolate bars, they'd be so good. Overall, I'm glad I tried Yummy Bites. I'd go back for the dubai chocolate pancakes and to try the waffle and biscoff milkshake.

Dropped into this mom and pop while I was in the area bourbon hunting…read more It appears to be a neighborhood go to. Lots of elderly friend brunches and moms with young kids. The ambiance has character Braved the texmex on the menu and ordered a barbacoa burrito. Just didn't want the pancakes omelette or French toast I think most people review on. In looking around burgers are very popular as well Back to my burrito. It's a big ass burrito. The ingredients work although it's nothing traditional about it.barbacoa is really good. Seasoned well, the amalgamation of beef, black beans , radachio, cheese, what I think is basmati rice and bell pepper works It's served with a sour cream and a creamy hot sauce on the side...I was also offered ketchup (OMG Minnesota eww) I turned it down.

Wow. Berry Sweet Kitchen is about a 1/2 mile from our house, and it's a great place for breakfast…read more The bacon is house made and Thicc! Oh I could go on and on about the bacon. Just ask for it extra crispy. The hash browns are GBD (golden brown and delicious), and the eggs are as ordered. Also remember to order the fresh squeezed OJ or grapefruit juice. Don't forget about the homemade bread, and the awesome homemade jam. It's delish. If you go, just grab a menu, order at the counter, and they will bring the food out to you. They are also open for lunch, and have a liquor license. Yummo.

This time our family tried the 5th Avenue Minneapolis location right across from Twins Stadium. Quick tip, park in the garage facing the restaurant on the left side. It's an easy elevator ride up and the signage makes it simple. Matt was our server and did an outstanding job. Great service always makes a difference. Beverage options were excellent too, stuff for everyone, mimosas, specialty coffee drinks, and really solid drip coffee. The menu has a great balance of savory and sweet, so naturally we tried both. We had the breakfast sandwich with sausage, a BLT on a croissant, biscuits and gravy, pancakes with fruit, and a croissant-waffle fusion with lemon and sweet cream. Honestly, everything was delicious. What I appreciate most is the atmosphere. These restaurants just feel comfortable, welcoming, and easy to enjoy with family or friends. I'm excited they're coming to Maple Grove, but I'll still keep visiting the St. Paul, St. Louis Park, and Minneapolis locations too because I want to see our cities and local businesses thrive.

This place has terrible management because routinely -- at least 4-5 times a month -- they open late, which is bad given that they don't even open until 8am for a coffee shop. The staff are great, including the shift manager, but whoever runs the business as a whole needs to do better.

Definitely recommend this place to check out if you're in the Minneapolis area for a solid local breakfast spot.

For breakfast, I ordered two slices of their cinnamon French toast, served with two eggs and bacon. To drink, I treated myself to a delicious, beautifully layered tiramisu latte. ​Another thing I absolutely love is their grab-and-go bakery case. It is so rare and refreshing to see so many clearly labeled GF treats, like their Lemon Bars and Almond Cheesecake. We couldn't resist taking some goodies to go, so we went home with a lemon bar and one of their GF Fruity Pebbles bars. ​If you're looking for a delicious, incredibly gluten-free friendly brunch spot with a great atmosphere, you have to check this place out!

They also had a delicious iced banana bread latte on their special menu...the banana bread cold fold was so, so good.

The veg was a very not cut correctly: chunks of green bell peppers and over chunky sliced onions that were not cooked through. Please stop being lazy and chop your veg and cook the onion . Green salad was hot Not impressed. And the Bloody Mary mix is sub par. However, the diner is cute and service is good. Second visit: had to sit at counter which is fine. They were busy. The bad: Bloody Mary's were flat and expensive $13 each. No depth of flavor, thought we would give them a second chance. . Ordered croquette madame. Egg was severely undercooked - the egg white was gelatatinous and the bread way too thick, ham fatty and subpar, where were you Béchamel? I took a bite of my breakfast and he hands me a box at the end when I asked for the check--not asking if anything is wrong. Two bites out of the spring mix salad and sandwich. Bloody Mary full. $70 for a salad, madame croquette, slow service which is no problem. It's a tiny diner and around lunch time. No worries there. But uncomfortable dining service because we could feel the tension between the server and bartender. Again for me? NBD but my daughter did not appreciate this. The good: the Mediterranean salad was delicious according to my daughter. She had the same thoughts about the Bloody Marys. Super cute beer backs- pony miller high life. I brought the croque madame home and my son loved it. Went on and on about how amazing it was. In all fairness my adult kids loved their food. He did microwave it to cook the egg through. Yes I know I am picky because I worked in the restaurant industry for over 22 years. And I can make better food at home. I just expect a bit more if I am going to drop $70 for two lunch entrees and two drinks. Not including the tip. Bottom line: I would not go back for this very expensive diner that doesn't know how to properly cook simple things. Or chop veg. Or make a drink.
