Roots Roasting

My go to neighborhood coffee shop. Coffee is always fresh and delicious. Excellent pastries. My favorite is the kouign-amann which was a surprise find in such a small shop and baked to perfection. The bakery section is small and often sells out so get here early! There is also a small selection of coffee and coffee making gadgets on sale. Free street parking easily available.

This place is fab!Plenty of street parking where they are located on a corner lot. The inside gives this small but intimate feel while maintaining good space.I tried the "Something Fun" which featured cinnamon and caramel and was sooooo good. Also had a chocolate croissant that was perfectly prepared and full of flavor.Great spot, definitely recommend!

Another great indie coffee place out of the main view from Snelling on St Clair. They have their own roasters, the baristas warm and friendly. The place is busy and quiet with softer background music. There was limited seating so I grabbed the last stool by the large windows. There were only cookies available by early afternoon and I didn't see any other food options.

Roots Roasting is still quite great! There's a lot of street parking available just around the corner of the block. I ordered the "something fun" latte, which changes often. It was really good! I also tried their featured ice tea, and enjoyed it after I added sugar.The service is amazing! Although, the drinks are a little slow to be made. However, this matches the laid back vibe of the shop and I wasn't in a rush at all. Once again, I was awed by the sustainability commitment. It's a big part of why I choose to support this business. I appreciated all the compost bins, the compostable straws, the use of in-house mugs, and the to-go cup return station (optional).Last time I noted the radio was a bit loud and mostly a talk show, which was distracting. This time was much different. The radio was possibly playing music at a low volume. It was a great study environment!Mask are requested and provided. I noticed employees wearing masks and about half of the customers wore masks.

Just nah!! $7 for a small iced macha tea full of ice could taste macha was low quality. If you are going to be more expensive than Starbucks at least offer better value.

A trendy little neighborhood coffee spot! The coffee is very high quality. The staff are amazing and always super friendly. Though you can't bring your dogs inside, they do have treats for your furry pals. They usually have some baked treats as well. They now offer a re-usable mug service which is super awesome! My only complaint is that their lattes are usually barely warm - you'll never burn your lips, but you'll end up with a room temp latte.

#14 in my TWIN CITIES COFFEE SHOP SERIES One of the best vanilla oat milk latte's I have ever had ($5). First off, it is already a plus when coffee shops do not charge extra for milk substitutes. Lactose and vegan people should be able to enjoy their coffee without having to pay extra! Second, their vanilla syrup is homemade w/ real vanilla beans. It makes the latte extremely tasty and sweet. You know it's good because you can actually see the vanilla bean flakes in the coffee! They also have all the traditional coffee shop drinks (cappuccinos, matcha lattes, espressos, etc). For the vibes, they were pretty simple. A few tables around and a bar table w/ stools by the window. A great spot to get some work done but not outrageously aesthetic compared to other coffee shops. But that latte really sold me!! Thank you for making a mean vanilla bean syrup.

Great coffee and pastries are high quality. I've always found a place to sit and the staff are super friendly.

Chillin' in St. Paul... who wouldn't want a cup of coffee to go with all that chill. So we had one at Roots Roasting and we thoroughly enjoyed it. They make an excellent cappuccino.

Big fan of this coffeeshop. The drinks are good and the baristas are friendly and have good vibes. They don't have a ton of tables but the space is will lit with natural light with good access to outlets. Mostly quiet so it's a good place to get work done. Street parking is also pretty easy to find around the area
