Parking can be tough, really a hit or miss on the streets but love the warm atmosphere inside. There's such a great calming vibe & truly the best coffee cafe where you feel invited to come, stay, and sip for a while. Their homemade pop tarts are also phenomenal!

I really like that there's a big booth right inside the door. There are also a ton of plants, which ups the coziness. The barista was ready to help me fairly quickly, and I like that they focus on where the coffee comes from. I ordered an iced Dulce de Leche latte, which was really tasty. I worry about dulce de leche being too sweet, but this latte was well balanced. I'd definitely like to buy some beans here in the future!

I have tried many coffee shops in NE and Five Watt is consistently my favorite coffee. I love their…read morebutterscotch latte and the vanilla latte. It gets pretty loud inside and there isn't a ton of natural light so it's not the best place to study, but they do have plenty of seating and space if you don't mind studying in that environment. It's a great place to hang out and catch up with friends. They have outdoor seating in the summer too. The coffee is pricey compared to other shops in the area, but it is so good I keep going back. Even just a cup of plain hot coffee is almost $5. The workers have always been friendly and the coffee comes out quick. Despite the price and atmosphere, it gets a 5 from me solely for the amazing coffee!

Stopped by the Five Watt Coffee E Hennepin location in Northeast Minneapolis, and it did not…read moredisappoint. The vibe here is great--funky, old decor with an industrial-meets-cozy feel, and the music selection is always a hit (not too loud, just vibey). It's a fantastic spot for working or just chilling. I ordered the cortado, and it was exceptional. The baristas definitely have latte art skills, and my drink was prepared beautifully and with care.The staff are super kind, which really adds to the experience. Parking is also a breeze with the adjacent free surface lot which is a plus in Minneapolis. If you're looking for a top-tier espresso drink in a great atmosphere, Five Watt is a must-visit.

From the moment I arrived staff were very friendly and the environment itself was also very welcoming. I ordered the London Frog; their speciality drink as they say, which is their spin on a London fog. It is a tea based drink with orange and espresso, and it was incredible... seriously one of the better coffee drinks I've ever ordered. 100% would order this again. I also got the pastrami sandwich with a side of chips. It was only $9 so I didn't expect too much or anything too fancy. It was a standard sandwich, toasted with a few typical toppings, but it was delicious and did the trick for a yummy lunch. I'll be coming to Walden Coffee again for sure.

I especially loved the garage door, as it was amazing to sit at a table in the AC but also be basking in the sun. The barista was very kind and friendly. My partner got an arnie palmer, and their drink was tasty and refreshing. My drink, the cherry pie latte, was disappointing. I'm not sure if their espresso just isn't very strong, or if they forgot to put the shot in the drink, but it tasted like flavored milk. I'd be willing to come here again for non espresso drinks, but I want my coffee to taste like coffee!

We went to Yellowbird on a Monday morning around 11:15. There is a large seating area which was…read moreabout half full, so it is a popular place - and I can see why! Good lighting and not too loud. They have all of the usual coffee options as well as several of their own concoctions. They have pastries as well as more hearty options like breakfast burritos, although when we went they were out of burritos, probably because we were there so late. They have several gluten free items, and vegan items. It looks like everything that can be sourced locally is local, and they have the providers listed on the menu. They are obviously very socially and environmentally conscious. The servers were very friendly. I had a cold press with cream which was excellent, exactly what I hoped it would be, good coffee flavor. Next time I would probably ask for less cream, but it is real cream. I also had the morning bun which was very good. It was like a cinnamon roll that was also rolled in cinnamon and sugar on the outside. My partner had a red eye which was dark roast and espresso with cream. He liked it very much. He also had a ham and cheese croissant and an apple fritter, both of which were very good. Parking is street parking which wasn't a problem when we were there but may be a problem at busier times. The interior is handicapped friendly, but again parking could be an issue. We loved it and will definitely be back.

There was only one person ahead of me, which gave me just enough time to peruse the menu on the wall, figure out where the WiFi password was listed, and break down my will enough to order that gorgeous-looking apple fritter at the top of the bakery shelf. The barista quickly assembled my large maple latte in an orange-yellow mug with that apple fritter that was calling my name, plus a large breakfast burrito. The burrito was more like an enclosed panini with sides of salsa and sour cream. While I ate 2/3rds of it, I cannot say that I enjoyed it all that much, especially for the $13 price. On the other hand, the maple latte and apple fritter were divine, if a little over-priced (although, what isn't, nowadays?). The power and Internet for the neighborhood just went out in the middle of this review, so I'm finishing through my phone hot-spot and will head on my way!

Information overload...are you ready?…read more Before our IVF transfer, which was a HUGE moment for us, at CCRM just across the way, we stopped into Rustica Bakery. We only had a few minutes to spare and thought, why not, let's treat ourselves. Best decision. The banana bread was hands down the best I've EVER had. I'm not exaggerating when I say I now feel like I need this in my life at least once a week....which is slightly dangerous. The space itself was busy, but there was still plenty of seating, and so many pastries and drinks to choose from. We had someone meeting us who was a little worried about parking, but there's a separate entrance (away from the mall) and plenty of spots, which makes it super easy. I'll be honest, the service didn't wow me, but the quality of the food more than made up for it, so it's still a five star experience in my book. Just something to know going in. Such a simple stop, and one we won't forget. It was the perfect moment before a really big one for us.
