10 Coffee Shops In Minneapolis You'll Instantly Fall In Love With

Minnesota may be the land of 10,000 lakes, but I like to think of it as the land of 10,000 coffee shops. In Minneapolis, it seems as though you can find a different coffee shop around every corner. The city has its fair share of Caribous and Starbucks', of which no city is complete without, but if you're looking to change it up a bit, the city has you covered. Even if you're a hardcore Starbucks lover, I guarantee you won't feel like you're betraying the queen of coffee when you fall in love with these 10 coffee shops in Minneapolis.

1. Spyhouse Coffee

With four locations in the Minneapolis area, Spyhouse’s passion is to source, roast, brew and serve the customer an exceptional coffee while educating them on the process from origin to consumption.

2. Urban Bean Coffee

Need to slow down and relax? Head over to Urban Bean Coffee, where they believe coffee isn’t about speed. To Urban Bean, coffee is a craft that brings people together. They’re dedicated to preparing coffee the right way and making it accessible to everyone.

3. Vicinity Coffee

To ensure you get the freshest beans around, Vicinity Coffee roasts their coffee locally and in small batches. They’ve been cultivating community through specialty coffee in two locations since 2011.

4. Mapps Coffee

Located in Minneapolis’ West Bank neighborhood of the University of Minnesota, Mapps Coffee aims to bring a worldly atmosphere and ambiance to the U of M campus. Mapps prides itself on its quality, environmentally conscious coffee that is directly traded with farmers in California.

5. UP Coffee Roasters

The name of this coffee shop is more than what meets the eye. The UP name challenges everyone to move on, go forward, think bigger and wake up. UP ultimately aims to bring real value to those they serve every day through the common link of coffee.

6. Isles Bun & Coffee

If you’re looking for a delicious pastry to go with your morning coffee, then Isles Bun & Coffee is the place for you. All of their goodies are made from scratch with fresh ingredients on the daily. Getcha hot buns and rolls here, sugar!

7. Five Watt Coffee

This coffee shop roasts and serves their own coffee, and is designed to meet everyone’s coffee needs. The founders are two energetic coffee-enthusiasts, unicorn hoarders, high-fivers and music geeks. They want to make your coffee, and if that’s not reason enough to go, they claim to have the best Wi-Fi in town.

8. Peace Coffee

Peace Coffee was born out of late-night conversations between their parent organization and a group of Mexican farmers. They have two Minneapolis locations and are eager to continue coffee's centuries-old tradition as a centerpiece of conversation and community.

9. Caffetto Coffee House

While serving up specialty coffee, tea and food, Caffetto Coffee House features rotating exhibits from local artists. Go to sip coffee and work, or wander upstairs to play board games or downstairs to play pinball and ping pong.

10. The Purple Onion Café

Whether you're looking for a place to study, in the mood for a delicious meal or pastry or simply want to enjoy a fresh cup of joe, The Purple Onion Café (or Poinion, for short) has everything you need!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
