I find the people extremely helpful and kind and sensitive to customers and the store’s environment. However, one item that I have been getting for many many years since I started coming to Caribou (when it first opened) is the coffee cake. In my view, it has too much of the cinnamon sticky Inner core that makes it too heavy to really eat pleasantly. I always peel off the thick goo in the center. I’ve noticed that Starbucks is now carrying a similar (almost the same) coffee cake, but it is more of a thin, cinnamon sugary item without the heavy, thick goo. I think if you change the recipe to be more like a coffee cake with a thin, crushed and thin cinnamon stream in the middle, that you would be selling many many many more coffee, cakes – – at least to me and my family, and I suspect many others as well. Thank you for listening to me. I hope this comment is helpful and you will thank me with a lifelong subscription to the modified coffee cake.! L O L.

Enjoying a nice piece of my favorite cinnamon coffee cake from Caribou and a fresh brewed medium blend ☕️ coffee.
It’s the best way to start a day! I’m a fan of the decor of the cafe’s. Always makes me feel like I am in a cabin up north, even though I am in the middle of the city.
Feels great always!
I was pleasantly surprised by the speed at which my coffee was prepared and handed to me. However, I did request it to be a tad less scorching, but honestly, I'd rather it err on the side of being too hot than disappointingly cold, so I'm not fussing about it in the least. I wholeheartedly endorse this place because the staff demonstrated exceptional speed, friendliness, and a genuine willingness to assist!

The manager is incredibly rude and disrespectful to every customer and doesn’t handle escalated customers well, will escalate more instead. Staff is clearly treated with poor care and disrespect. They close frequently early. Claiming “low staff” when they have 12 workers at 12 and close at 2. The manager has an attitude problem and is very loud and rude

Visiting MN for the first time and was told a lot about Caribou so thought I'll try. This store is great - as mentioned by others, they are pretty quick and the breakfast sandwiches were great as well. Certainly exceeded my expectations.
Shortage of space, it wasn't clear whether Caribou customers were allowed to use the space next door. Other than that, it was pretty good.
Awesome vibe, unfortunately I ordered the vegan egg flatbread which secretly has real cheese on it. The menu does not say anything about cheese. And they couldn’t correct the order so I was stuck with my purchase. I emailed corporate because they really shouldn’t be serving a vegan sandwich that has real cheese on it. This is highly misleading.

Excellent professional friendly staff. Good size coffee place.
Easy parking and some other fast food restaurants around. Bagel place connected inside to coffee place.
Nice ambiance and great place to take a break. Good products and regular caribou coffee offering at good prices.
Not from Minnesota but everytime we visit (4x a year) I go for the campfire mocha with extra marshmallows on top! To die for! YUM!
