Right away I walked in and loved the ambiance. The artwork was beautiful. Quiet space to do some work or grab coffee and food. I got the white chocolate pumpkin mocha. I'm not a huge fan of pumpkin flavor but this was so good! I don't remember the cashiers name but she was friendly and helpful as I decided on what drink to get.

Calling all coffee lovers! Come soak up some sun on Sunbean's beautiful back patio, or catch some artificial rays with Light Therapy at their signature SunBar SunBean is a Black-owned business on a mission to "spread sunshine, community, and positivity through exceptional coffee and a welcoming atmosphere," and the owner, Fred, certainly delivers on that mission! He was great to chat with and certainly fosters a warm sense of community inside his shop. This is truly a place where all are welcome, even if you're a caffeine novice. Keep an eye on their social media for fun monthly specials and info about upcoming community events. I got a blueberry passionfruit pop tart (made by another stellar local company, Fruit & Grain) and Fred's Favorite - an oatmilk miel latte with a dash of cinnamon. Great coffee, highly recommend! Parking was easy with lots of a street parking in front of the coffee shop, seems like a nice quiet neighborhood in the Nokomis area of Minneapolis.

I think SunBean Coffee might just be my new favorite, local coffee shop! Their drinks are fantastic and staff are warm and welcoming. Last time I was here, I tried their drink of the month: Iced Cereal Milk Latte. It was delicious and nostalgic, too, with the lucky charms marshmallows on top. My wife got the drink that put them on the map--salted caramel bourbon cold brew. She loved it. On top of the great drinks and service, the homemade poptarts (sourced from another business, I believe) were top notch.

Great coffee, good food, and even better vibes. The owner was extremely friendly and has created a really nice atmosphere to study or chill in! Not to mention, the homemade pop tarts were delish!

I kind of love this place a lot. It's an utterly charming little urban coffee shop with great drinks and food. Full disclosure: my first visit happened because of a free drink offered to Yelp Elites, but I keep coming back because the idea of stopping in for a coffee and a snack keeps winning me over. I've gotten their mochas and I've been getting their monthly drink specials which are delicious every time. They also have these unique pastries which I think they call "Gourmet Pop Tarts" that are awesome. What I've specifically been doing is stopping here at lunchtime for a coffee, grabbing one of those pastries to eat later, and having it on my desk where my officemates invariably admire it and are jealous of me for having it. You should come here if you want that experience. Beyond that, this is a totally pleasant place to linger, with its cute decor, a bit of patio seating, and service that is as neighborly and upbeat as anyone could want. A couple more notes about their offerings... I like hot coffee drinks and it seems like they are excited about what they do with cold ones, but I'm not an expert in that, but I bet the cold coffee drinks they make are awesome. Also I had a delicious breakfast burrito last time, very plump and filling.

What a cozy place!They even have " sad light " that will help you with seasonal affective disorder. Helping you be happier! I had Fred's fave. Oatmilk latte with cinnamon. I love it. I don't even care for oat milk more of a soymilk gal. It has very balance flavors. Perfect amount of slight sweetness. This is now also my fave. (Thanks Sunbean)The staffs are friendly and very welcoming and they told me some fun facts:Breakfast sandwiches made by next door bar - Bull's Horn! (Another great place to visit) Fresh never frozenI had the mangorita poptart while I was there. It has FRESH mango inside. Soooo good. Crispy pie not too sweet which is good. The pop tarts and savory hand pies are made by Emily at Fruit and Grain! She is also at some farmer's markets but doesn't have a brick and mortar store.

This new local spot is awesome! Fred, the owner, was working behind the counter when I came in and was so pleasant and fun to chat with! I love seeing the mind behind the business working and serving customers and getting to know him as well! The honey oatmilk latte was delicious! I had them make it the "OG" way, and it didn't disappoint strong coffee flavor, sweet without being too sweet. Perfect on a sunny summer day! I also decided to grab some pastries to try as well! I got the peaches and cream and passion fruit blueberry poptarts and they were delicious as well! I don't think they're made in house but still highly recommend! The overall feel of this place was bright, welcoming and chill at the same time. I was surprised how bright it was when I walked in but it gave me an overwhelming sense of fun and friendliness when I was inside. If you're looking to check out a small, new local coffee shop, start here and support the owners dream becoming a reality!

Another hidden gem. I visited here for a Yelp event and now have added them to my list. Love the vibes just walking in with music playing in the background, plants everywhere, and just sunlight beaming throughout the cafe. They have outdoor seating outside and there's also street parking out front. I ordered the special coffee and one of their everything bagel pastries and I loved both!

Cozy little place with street parking out front. They have tons of fun toppings and syrups to make your own concoction. I asked for marshmallow fluff and sea salt on my vanilla Oatmilk latte and the barista worked with it and made me this incredible marshmallow sea salt cold foam. It's fun to go to a place where you can be creative :)
