Cozy interior with plenty of seating for individuals or groups. Neat modern fireplace. Very friendly staff. The "Carma Coffee" is a coffee with a shot of espresso. A bit too much for me so went with a $3 large light roast coffee which was smooth. (Did not ask about the origins). Also picked up a $7 quiche (mushroom cheddar) to go. Very filling and the right amount of crisp to the crust. Would duplicate this order again. Free street parking in front of the shop is between 9am to 4pm. Otherwise you'll have to park around the block. read more

Carma coffee ... I drive 15 miles to have a cup here. That should tell you something. They have a couple of chai options which is nice. For summer I am having the TeaSource Gold. We usually get a salad. Nice and fresh and I love the cheese (goat?) Lemon blueberry scone for dessert. Lots of windows gives it a bright cheery interior read more

Visited here for a morning meeting. It is quite an atmosphere, vibrant, many windows so can view the beautiful scenery of busy traffic. Now! I did NOT order anything so I cannot speak to the quality of how the coffee is, how the anything is. However! I can say that Baybay! Baybay! Baybay! The amazing individual I visited this place with had a scone type delicacy and that thang was drier than dry! Ok! I entered and saw that thing and said ooh babbay they missed all the butter. All the butter! It was so dry LOOKING that he only bit about a fourth of a one fourth of the scone, and that was before I came. Hahaha. So the scones, stay clear! They are beautiful and topped well but dry as all get out. Now the service was amazing, from the moment I stepped in I was greeted and they were serving other people too. I was pleased with that cause to walk into the atmosphere that did have many that resembled me, the service made me feel like I was seen, appreciated and I would return again. I seen they had a turkey sandwich, sounded good and MOIST! Again would return, amazing service wish I knew her name to acknowledge her as she deserves but I don't. Thank you anyway! read more

I love Carma coffee! They have great scones that seem to rotate flavors and a lot of seating options indoors.

Coffee, food, and ambience is wonderful. Only downside is the service - they take a while to get to you at the register and often clean or do other work beforehand, and they take a while to make your order too. If not for these, would have rated 5 stars! read more

Upon walking in warmly greeted I have to say that the staff here is welcoming and the place is really nice the ambience is great I could see my self doing work here but... Getting to the coffee part it doesn't seem like they have any speciality coffees so I opted for an almond milk latte. You can expect to pay an upwards of 6.50$ at establishments like these which wasn't a cause of concern Ohhh man no latte art...I live for some good latte art but unfortunately not here :/ I have to say the espresso was just average I could compare it to the coffee machine at my apartment or going to Caribou for just average which kind of was a let down read more

Great coffee. Vibes make you feel like you're in the 50s but with granola people around. Kind staff, offered to upgrade my size when they didn't have matcha. read more

A real neighborhood gathering place Carma Coffee has transformed about the most nondescript building in Northeast Mpls into an inviting warm friendly coffee bar. Ample room for small gatherings but still maintains a cozy fuzzy feeling. Coffee was inspiring and I even had a refill for .75 which I rarely do. Garage doors for warmer weather and huge windows to view the scene on Lowry this is an enjoyable place and the neighborhood is all the richer. read more

UPDATE: I have returned since running into a specific employee who was unpleasant. Carma Coffee is one of my FAVORITES. I work close, and love the array of drinks, and local (and healthy) food which is offered. Upon returning I have witnessed other pleasant, and sweet employees. For example, a lovely woman with short hair, glasses, who was particularly endearing - I interacted with her this past Saturday and she was a GEM. Super super sweet. read more

i love it here so much I wanna gatekeep it from you. they have smoothies, sandwiches (breakfast and lunch) and other stuff. definitely coffee, they do fun seasonal drinks. outlets and good to be productive in read more

Been here a few times, service has always been very friendly. I've always gotten coffee on the go but the place is quite spacious and always looks incredibly bright, clean, never too loud and most importantly, very welcoming. The egg sandwiches I think are great - very tasty, made fresh and not overpriced. Most importantly - coffee is delicious! read more

Disclaimer: I'm not really a coffee drinker. I know, but calm down about it. BUT I love Carma Coffee for all of their other offerings. They are located in Northeast, which is convenient for me.The service was super sweet and I even received a compliment on my first visit! One little compliment goes a long way in the morning when I'm dragging ass, caffeine-less, feeling (and probably looking) like a swamp monster. I had their chai with burnt sugar and ginger and enjoyed it very much; it wasn't too spicy or sweet! The space is simple and clean, with pops of color here and there. I'm loving the (almost) floor-to-ceiling windows across the front of the cafe! I can't wait for summer when they open up that garage door too. They serve breakfast sandwiches, pastries, salad, soup, smoothies and lunch-y sandwiches. I look forward to coming back to get some work done, and hopefully grab that prime spot next to the fireplace this time. read more

What a great find! My drip coffee was pretty solid and my coworker enjoyed his cappuccino, until the end when there was a massive amount of grounds in his last few sips. We shared a molasses cookie with a delicious sweet glaze. YUM. The cookie came off a plate that was sitting on the counter with no sneeze guard or any form of cover, just cookies on a counter. We also had to get it our self, which was quite strange. Heck we could have taken the whole plate, and no one would have known. Our waiter was in outer space. He didn't really pay attention to us and took a while to make the heavily grounded cappuccino. A long while. Then he set it down and walked away. How about a thank you? Here's your cookie? The atmosphere is fun and I really liked the furniture. Next time I'm in the neighborhood I'll be back for another cookie! read more

Wonderful food, exceptional coffee, and the sweetest baristas! Overall an immaculate vibe. Thank you Carma!

Carma Coffee is finally open! Staff is super friendly, the coffee is quality, the sandwiches are delicious and my cup of tomato soup was maybe the best tomato soup I've ever had. Really. I plan on being a regular customer. read more

Oh my gosh, she wasn't kidding about the creaminess of the quiche! This is delicious: Quiche of the Day and a Maple Spice Latte. Both exceptional! The spice in the latte is just the right amount of cinnamon and clove, and it has the perfect amount of maple so as not to overshadow the other flavors. The quiche has a wonderfully firm, crispy crust that holds a light and creamy concoction of egg, tomato, spinach and pesto. I even grabbed a cookie for the road which they offered to heat up, but I chose not to since I'm saving it for later. When you find a place you like, always grab something for later! Light music, quiet atmosphere despite being fairly full, and a cozy fireplace that feels straight out of a cabin or ski chalet. I can easily get a lot of writing done here! read more

Another coffee shop in NE! They use Morningstar coffee, sigh... SO many local coffee roasters to choose from, I would have liked them to use another NE roaster, oh well. Nice selection of morning goodies and lunch goodies! Huge space to spread out and get your homework/business done, if you get my drift. Free internet and not as hipster /loud like Spyhouse in NE. read more

Walden Coffee - Large cup to go! Giddy up! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

The space inside is big and bright. I love the big windows, especially, when the bright sun shines right in. Awww, it makes me happy already. I come here a lot when I know the service is great. Their coffee is good too. But I normally order Gray Duck Chai with almond milk. It is good, trust me. Sometimes I try to see what they have for soup, it is different every day or week, I think. Make sure to try their sandwiches, they are amazing. I had Smoked Turkey with lettuce, mayo and Dijon. It was delicious! I have not tried much of their pastries but they looked amazing on the counter. I would definitely recommend everyone to check out this amazing place. It does not get busy during the morning time but it is a good place to do some work, or some reading. Almost forgot to mention you can open a tab at a coffeehouse. Yes, you can do it here. I hope you enjoy this cute little location of NE Minneapolis. Street parking. read more

I've been here a couple times and I have always been impressed. There's plenty of seating options, it's not too busy, the music isn't too loud, there's ample street parking, the coffee is good, the hot egg sandwiches are tasty, the shop is super cute, and the staff are attentive. When I say they have seating options, I mean it. There are plenty of tables, couches and window ledge seating. (I'm a fan of the window seating myself.) They even have a couch fashioned from the tailgate of an old VW! The atmosphere is great for relaxing with having coffee with a friend, or getting work done. The noise level is just right. The egg sandwiches are made with love, so don't expect them to be snappy. But their worth the wait. I'll be a frequently flyer here. read more

I love this place! Staff is very friendly- they make you feel like part of the family. I love there Peanut Butter Banana Smoothie! I highly recommend it with or without the chocolate. We love to support our local small businesses...Especially ones we love. Good treats as well, yummy cookies and bakery items. read more

Such a cute space! I know there are a lot of coffee spots around town so it's taken me a while to make it here. First off the service was really excellent! I mean how nice they were is almost too much if there is such a thing without going into not sincere! The beverages were really excellent and tasted like coffee and not some syrupy concoction, though that has it's place too! I have a mocha that I loved and my cohort had a chai. both beverages receive a enthusiastic thumbs up! We tried the cinnamon roll which was really delicious. I got some food to go for lunch as well. I had a pb&j english muffin and my companion had the build your own sandwich with pesto, turkey and tomato. He was raving about it all day. I have nothing bad to say and I hope my budget allows for a visit again soon! read more

The staff at Carma coffee is attentive and kind. I love their breakfast sandwiches and all of the offerings that they have. It brings some variety to my morning. The coffee is great and the atmosphere is relaxed. I enjoy all the natural light that is available with the big windows looking out to the street. Karma coffee is one of my favorite neighborhood Coffee spots in northeast! read more

Super cute place but I tried their matcha and it was 70% milk- didn't taste like anything. Wasn't worth the $6 :/

I went here for the first time for a meeting, and was immediately struck by how friendly and welcoming the space was. I got a golden tea drink different from anything I'd ever really had before, and sank down into an incredibly comfy couch right by an outlet. I loved it so much I came back the next day to curl up with a book for a few hours. The quiche slices are huge and packed with flavor, with a great flaky crust. The smoothies are innovative and delicious, with customizable milk options, and go down very easy. The space is bright and comfortable, with art, succulents, and tons of outlets. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. I'll definitely be back here again! read more

Such good coffee! The choices were lacking, but I also admire simplicity and having a few great items and doing them really well. The woman that helped us was so sweet and helpful. It is the perfect place to meet friends at or get some work done. read more

Such a cute place!!! We had a meeting with our wedding photographer at this coffee shop, which allowed for an intimate conversation and great coffee. Since then, this is my favorite coffee shop in northeast. Its so cute the automative shop next door is called Carma as well! Will always give a 5/5. read more

Carma is the absolute perfect coffee spot- whether you're going alone for a cup of coffee and some time with a book, meeting a co-worker for shop talk, or heading over to color and catch up with a friend. Their coffee is honestly the best I've had (if you're sticking around they offer a bottomless cup), and my favorite part about it? They have real spoons for you to stir your drink with! It's the little things... They have an assortment of breakfast and lunch options, as well as some amazing baked goods! My favorite baked goods include coconut creme scones, almond joy cookies and pecan rolls, but there are many to pick from! I haven't had too many of the sandwiches, because I've built the perfect "create your own" egg sandwich and I always end up ordering it- English muffin, egg, provolone, tomato and pesto! The staff are friendly and the owners have created such a comfortable atmosphere, this place could easily become anyone's regular coffee spot (and already has for many)! read more

This is one of my favorite coffee shops after only two visits. A friend used to live in the area and turned me on to Carma Coffee and I'm glad he did. The decor is super cute and I love the garage door being open during nice weather. Every employee I've encountered has been so friendly and nice to chat with while I wait for my coffee which just makes a great experience even better. The pastries I've tried have been awesome as well. I need to remind myself to stop by more often! read more

The staff is friendly and warm. Space is clean, with plenty of seating. My fav thing to do there - kick back, watch trains go by while enjoying coffee and scone, so relaxing. They have Morning Star coffee, 4 flavors of ice cream and their root beer floats are delicious. Their fresh egg sandwiches are tasty too with a quite a few toppings to choose from. Their salads and sandwiches are made to order, super fresh. Glad they put a picnic table outside. Carma's vibe is chill, not stuffy which I appreciate. It's a NE Mpls gem. read more

Carma Coffee has a wide selection of beverages and food. I'm especially partial to the savory pastries especially the cheddar and jalapeño danish. Their quiches are wonderful as well and I don't care what Bruce Feirstein says. Real men DO eat quiche! I haven't tried the soup but I'm betting it's great. read more

I live in the southwest suburbs but enjoy exploring Minneapolis neighborhoods on the weekends. Carma Coffee is one of my favorite northeast finds, and I've stopped in a few times for lunch. I love the airy, artsy, inviting atmosphere. They have one of the best French roasts I've ever tasted, and their baked goods are consistently dee-lish. (Try the almond joy cookie!) During my last visit, I had a veggie delight sandwich - minus the egg, the whole egg sandwich thing is completely lost on me. The veggie and cheese combo with the pesto was so good I practically licked the pesto and tomato juice dregs from the tissue paper it was wrapped in! I'll keep coming back! read more
