Alma Provisions

Maybe it's because I got it to go, but this was disappointing, especially since Alma restaurant is so delicious. The mushroom egg frittata was very pretty to look at, but it was totally off. Very greasy, flavorless, and (maybe because I got an edge piece) really dry. There was very little egg, mostly greasy bread. The tomato sauce that it came with did brighten the flavor a lot. Same with the potatoes. They look like they'll be delicious, but also greasy and flavorless. They became more and more oily as it cooled down, so it's possible these items would taste fine if eating it there. But it does not work for takeout.

They have an interesting setup with Brasa next door. More clear signs for the system would be great because we weren't sure if the seating was combined or how it worked. I tried the Up South egg sandwich, which was really good. I don't normally like pimento cheese, but the flavors were amazing together. The lavender latte sadly didn't have any flavor and I wouldn't get coffee there again. The annoyed vibes from the staff that day were a little off putting and they forgot half our order for the group.

Small stop cafe to try some pastries and coffeeDisappointed with the service- they weren't really paying attention to anyone there Forgot my mocha and the drip coffee tasted bad as they only had light roast available The danishes were just average- also expensive for the quality Breakfast sandwiches were pretty good though so saving grace

Kind of a weird place. Their matcha is unsweetened and not particularly flavorful and served in a paper cup even when you order for "here." The breakfast sandwiches are tasty but messy and overpriced. You have to wait for your name to be shouted--they will not bring it to your table. I feel like this is a place for people with too much money to spend and bad taste. It doesn't encompass the Minnesota experience of hospitality and lack of pretension. There are far better places for breakfast, and for coffee.

Adorable little cafe and bakery just east of Lake Harriet. With a small ordering space, a few tables that they share with Brasa next door, and an assortment of pantry and home good items, Alma Provisions is the perfect place to grab coffee and a treat. I read about their egg sandwich with pimento cheese and went to check it out the next weekend. Called the Up South, this delightful breakfast sandwich consists of fluffy, scrambled eggs, creamy, cheddar-y pimento cheese, and sautéed sweet peppers and onions that get smushed between a fresh buttermilk biscuit. Really tasty! They have other food items refrigerated by the counter, but I would suggest ordering something that is made fresh. Cute stop in Southwest Mpls!

Ok - It feels wild to be doing a third review update, but the Mpls St. Paul Magazine released their top sandwiches, which included Alma Provision's Breakfast Sandwich. I went and got one and WOW. I'm fighting the urge to go get another a couple of days later and I think I'm going to lose that battle. PSA: They recommend "the breakfast sandwich," but AP actually has multiple types. I'm pretty sure by the description provided they meant the Up South breakfast sandwich. The biscuit still has the baking soda/powdery flavor a little bit but the pimento cheese and sweet peppers tasted so good that I didn't mind much. I'd give this sandwich, paired with their dirty chai, five stars, but the cafe as a whole is still probably 4-4.5 stars.

Great new addition to the neighborhood! Coffee, pastries, and homemade bath products that originated from Hotel Alma. Beautiful space, delicious coffee, and friendly staff. Perfect for a pre or post walk around the lake coffee and snack. It looks like they also have some really unique breakfast and deli sandwiches. Can't wait to try everything on their menu!

Always great service, and new disciveries in theiir yummy selection of pastries and breakfast tItems

Great food coupled with some of the worst service out of any Minneapolis restaurant. To add to it, they add a 20% mandatory tip. Don't go during peak hours unless you want to wait a half hour to get your drink.

The service was amazing along with the atmosphere! The Egg-Sandwiches were so I will defiantly be returning!! 10/10 Cafè!
