A great neighborhood coffee and gelato (and affogato) spot!…read more They have a cute outdoor seating area (on sidewalk out front) and a couple bar stools inside. Super friendly staff that seem to genuinely want to get to know you and your pup (if you have one). Love that they are dog friendly. Affogato here was top notch. They have their own soft serve gelato with rotating flavors. I've also had an iced latte which was good. Prices are a little on the steeper side, but the quality is there.

AMAZING THIS DRINK…read moreIS EVERYTHING! You need to try it out. The soft serve gelato paired with the chai?! They also have a matcha, coffee, and earl gray option! It's so heavenly, and the last few sips are so creamy. The interior itself is very tiny and cramped, so it's more of a grab and go drink. The baristas were all so sweet, and made for a great overall experience:)

I've been here a few times for coffee. Like their pastries, breakfast burrito and coffee drinks…read more Folks at the counter who take orders are so nice, and the place has a nice vibe. Also love their outdoor patio when it's nice out. I've always been able to get on street parking. It's expensive, but all places are right now. Also love the notebook they have at the counter with the question of the day that you can write in. So clever!

I had a wonderful experience at SunBean Coffee. I visited on Juneteenth, which made supporting a…read moreBlack-owned business feel even more meaningful. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. What stood out most was that the owner took the time to personally say hello and make us feel welcome. That kind of genuine hospitality is rare and really made our visit special. The coffee was delicious, the space was inviting, and it was clear that a lot of care goes into both the business and the customer experience. If you're looking for great coffee and a place that truly makes you feel like part of the community, SunBean Coffee is a must-visit. We'll definitely be back!

Stopped into SunBean today for a little mid-morning pick me up…read more Street parking available at this spot! Interior is small but bright and welcoming. Three tables and some stools available, so best for take away. Staff was happy and helpful during our visit! Enjoyed their Iced Banana Latte, which was absolutely delicious: perfectly creamy, not too sweet, and topped with a yummy cold foam! I'd absolutely order again!

Quite possibly some of the best coffee I've had in the Twin Cities…read more Seriously, such a smooth and incredibly well-made latte with a subtle amount of salty caramel. You can immediately tell there's real care behind the coffee here. I ordered at the bar, and it was brought out to me on their amazing patio, which was such a nice touch. Ben was awesome and clearly takes a lot of pride in his craft, and it absolutely shows. The space itself is great, there is plenty of room both inside and out. The patio is especially lovely and such a perfect place to hang out and relax with a coffee.

Got the iced salted caramel latte and loved it. Not too sweet and just enough flavor!read more

Specialty coffee seems newer in Minneapolis, and this place seems to get it…read more Ginza was an oat latte and served like a cocktail. The foam and body worked great together, and it wasn't too sweet by Asian standards. The miso tired latte tasted more bland, and closer to a regular latte. The miso flavor could be stronger. Decor was geared toward nostalgia than anything else. Felt like a throw back to simpler times. Not sure if there's parking, it didn't look like any in the front. Within walking distance from a bus stop. The bakery across the street was excellent. Service was fast considering only 1 person was working. Cash App locals rewards, if you're into rewards.

I've been around the area a lot recently but never seen this coffee shop until I saw it on TikTok…read more I got an iced vanilla latte and an iced chai, both were very flavorful. The atmosphere of the shop makes you want to chill out for a while. The staff were very friendly and curates the music with vinyls. In the front the garage door was open. In the back, was a couch with a PlayStation 2 & 3 and a GameCube. Great spot would go again!

Cold fashioned-top half was good,but the bottom of the drink had a bitter , orange-rind flavor. A bit busy inside during the art fair on a summer Sunday afternoon .

Conveniently located near Minnehaha falls and there's some street parking available as well. My…read morefriend and I have been wanting to try Falls coffee for a while and we finally found the opportunity to check it out. We came around 1pm on a weekday and there was a bit of a wait as it was only one person making drinks and serving customers. They have an extensive menu with so many specialty drinks. It was a bit of decision fatigue before finally landing on our order. I tried the bananarama chai and my friend had their lychee matcha. The matcha almost tasted completely fruity with no actual matcha taste, to the point where it came off more like a smoothie or juice than a caffeinated drink. My chai wasn't bad, but I didn't get much of the banana flavor. The space itself has a few tables and there is free WiFi as well. They always announce new seasonal drinks so I may come back if anything catches my eye.

Lots of options on the menu, I was looking for the seasonal drinks but didn't realize until after I ordered they were indeed on the main menu. I ended up getting an iced vanilla macchiato and an iced matcha. The Matcha did have some small chunks but overall the drinks were good. They have plenty of tables to sit and some outside as well on the sidewalk patio. Parking was street as far as I could tell. Generally a decent coffee shop if you're in the area.

If I am not in the mood to explore and want a guaranteed good coffee any dogwood location is perfect including this one. The coffee is always great and the baristas always know what they are doing. This location in particular isn't the biggest but has a lot of booths for anyone working from home might want to hide themselves away. They also have one large table if you have a big group. The one thing it's missing in my book is a couch or more lounging seating for the coffee shop readers like me. Dogwood is in my top 2 (or 3) in the city!

The spot appeared to be very popular among bikers grabbing a beverage or snack on their morning rides. I had an iced latte, which was tasty on a hot summer day. They had one of the largest flavoring selections I have seen, which was awesome. I went with the cookie butter which was so yummy. The line was very long, but the girl working the counter was turning out items quickly! They also appeared to have a large variety of treats in their display case as well as cold beverages.

I have tried both their coffee and their matcha and they are both spectacular. They always have fun seasonal flavors to try and they use homemade syrups which I really appreciate. This location in minneapolis also has a TON of seating but it's definitely a well loved place so it is often very full. That being said, people are always willing to share a table when it's crazy full. The wifi is great. Street parking is available within the neighborhoods. It is definitely somewhat loud with music, talking, and the sounds of coffee being made, so if you need a silent work space this probably isn't the place for you.

Just wanted to shout out Northern Coffeeworks for opening their space to the community for a space to come together for action and solidarity. The space at NCW is perfect for bigger events, like the one last week. I am sure it is super cute as a coffee shop as well. They have really gorgeous dark green painted walls and some exposed brick! Lots of fun art, trinkets, and food available to purchase as well. Will be coming back ASAP to try their drinks, just wanted to give props!
