    Menu and front counter

    Went here for the first time on a Saturday during the street fair. There was live music that day. The guy was so loud I couldn't even hear myself when ordering so we didn't stay inside. If I lived in town, this would be my coffee go to simply because the iced Agave Miel is the best coffee drink ever. The coffee was smooth and went down way too quick. The menu has several healthy options - not your box chain coffee shop with like 50g of sugar per drink. The coffee comes in a standard size. I did order an americano to add to my second visit drink because it was sweeter than the first even though I ordered the same Agave Miel. It was no big deal because it just meant I got to drink more coffee. Prices are reasonable. My third visit was during the week around 3:30ish and it was much more chill. The place wasn't as busy and no live music. The building is an old original historic building with tons of character and charm. If you are going to hang out, there is plenty of places to sit; the bar, booths, tables, even outdoor seating. It's a good spot to visit with friends, study, play board games, people watch, etc. The staff is minimal contact so they don't really interact with people other than taking your order from what I experienced and observed. I have now been here a total of three times since visiting during the last two weeks.

    - customizable drinks and milk alternatives always available - light bakery bites - wifi is great, charging ports everywhere - atmosphere is very chill - a laptop warrior's perfect spot to chill and get work done - my drink of choice: Lavander Chai with Oatmilk(you have to request the added lavender) you can thank me later.

    Quiet little spot downtown. Aesthetically pleasing. Their vanilla latte was on point! Friendly employees and just a good vibe all around. . Ended up getting a 12 oz bag of Dogwood's Bear Hug coffee beans too. Yummy.

    Great Coffee!

    I went out of my way to get my coffee here on a recent trip to Grand Forks, based solely on the reviews. I was NOT disappointed. Located in a quaint area, near downtown... it sits on a corner with a little outside seating area. It is pretty spacious inside, and looks to get a lot of local/regular patrons. I ordered the grande espresso mocha and a fresh croissant. I was SUPER happy with both, this is so fast food quality coffee shop and if I ever return to Grand Forks I will come back.

    The owners son recommended this place to me and my friend and this is a great little place! They have board games, plenty of tables, booths, the barista we had was really sweet. It has that great local charm that you'd want in a coffee shop Iced mocha was delicious

    This is THE best coffeeshop coffee I've EVER had - and that's saying something! The service is friendly and quick and the atmosphere is beyond enjoyable with the historic feel of the space and the stylish decor. There are puzzles, games, and books on a back shelf for entertainment while you sip delicious coffee (free refills up to an hour!) or enjoy a scrumptious dessert item. One of my favorite aspects of this place is that it's right near the railroad tracks so you get to see and hear a train go by every once in a while (it's not loud). Make sure to get an exclusive "Grand Freakin' Forks" souvenir mug while you're there, too!

    A shot I took for a friend who is back home in Missouri.

Inside is bright and clean - always. Their food items are expensive for what you're getting...but it's another breakfast/brunch option in town.

    Visited the Edgewater location twice during a recent trip to Grand Forks and was very impressed…read more Once was through the drive thru, where we ordered a cold brew, caramel delight oatmilk latte, and four breakfast sandwiches. Service was prompt and they had everything prepared and out to us in the car in under 10 min. Also dined in and got their Dreamy Cold Brew - it was delicious! Strong cold brew, good flavor, with just the right amount of cream. My friend and I both got the bacon egg and cheese breakfast sandwich on an everything bagel and loved them - perfectly toasted and flavorful. Multiple bread options depending on what you want - croissant, 3 types of bagels, pretzel bun, etc. The coffee shop is attached to the Edgewater Senior living facility and has ample parking in the lot in front of it, as well as a drive-thru. Nice ambiance inside with a stone fireplace, beautiful artwork, and a chalkboard wall with a chalk mural from a local artist for the Chinese New Year of the Dragon. My favorite part of this place is that they offer more than just your standard coffee & tea that you find at all the other places in town. They have traditional Thai and Hong Kong style teas as well as a number of non tea or coffee drinks. Definitely worth the stop! Looking forward to going here again next time I'm in forks.

    This place is adorable! Love the decor inside. Like the concept of a neighborhood spot that serves…read morecoffee in the morning & beer/wine in the afternoon. Unfortunately had a very disappointing experience visiting the Board Room for the first time, and most of the issues lay in the fact that it was severely understaffed, with only one employee working every single station in the place - registers, drive-thru, drinks, and making food. This poor girl could not handle a small rush of 8-10 customers. We waited at least 30+ min for our coffee and probably another 15 min for two breakfast sandwiches. Their menu is impossible to find online and they don't have any social media updates indicating seasonal options. Even once you get inside, the menu is on three screens on the back wall, and difficult to read due to tons of options and small print. My biggest issue, however, was the fact that there were absolutely zero descriptions of any of the drinks! Many of the specialty drinks had fun names, but no clue what was in each one. I certainly did not want to stand at the register asking the only employee to explain each one. Went with the cold brew flight, which was also disappointing. You choose 4 different syrups and have them topped off with like 2oz of cold brew and whip cream. I guess if you hate coffee and want something super sweet this might work, but I couldn't taste the cold brew at all (also an indication it wasn't very strong). My husband got a s'mores mocha, which was delicious, but took 35 min to receive. Breakfast sandwiches on everything bagels were tasty, especially liked the chipotle mayo they give you as a sauce on the side. If I'm going to wait 45 min for food though I would go out to brunch at a nice sit down place instead. Don't stop here if you're in a rush to get anywhere. Ample parking in the lot outside, drive thru available too.

    Surprisingly fun place. Did not know what to expect when we walked in…read more Wife and Daughter did a Mimosa flight. They really liked it. Had pineapple,cranberry, orange, pomegranate. We also got the breakfast board. Tasty. Inside had some very comfy couches and chairs to kick back in. Service was very friendly
