Mi Cartagena Cafe

What a stellar little cafe. An absolute hole in the wall with bright beautiful colours smooth coffee and wonderful company.
Let’s start from outside to inside.
Outside great spot by the lake with ample patio space it’s cute cozy and inviting.
Inside great colors murals and decorations show there was passion and love that went into the cafe.
The coffee was great smooth, pleasant, flavourful and a great variety for you to select from.
And the staff the lady working was so friendly polite and great to talk too what a pleasant experience.
10/10 stop here

Just stopped in from the twin cities. We were in town for a cabin trip and weren't expecting to find such a great place and great cup of coffee. The atmosphere and location is perfect. We'll definitely be back again next time we come through. Thank you!

Wonderful to roll out of bed and have a hot latte and muffin while enjoying the fresh morning air on the deck. ❤️ In love with this little place!

Love this coffee shop! The owner is super friendly and the coffee is so good. They even have an oat milk option! There really is no indoor seating, but the outdoor seating on the large deck is perfect!

Life is short; drink amazing coffee. Mi Cartagena is HANDS DOWN THE BEST COFFEE IN DL. Kerlis is as sweet as her house made syrups, and you'll guarantee leave her cafe with a smile on your face, and an incredible cup of coffee! ❤️ You haven't been to Mi Cartagena yet? Then drop what you're doing, clear your calendar, and head to Mi Cartagena!

Amazing hospitality, coffee and attention to detail. Best coffee in Detroit Lakes, MN. Try the Columbian Latte. So flavorful. Definitely will be hanging here again.

Highly recommend. Great little tranquil lakeside cafe. Relaxing. Great beverages. Sun and shaded options. I will be returning.

Such incredible coffee and awesome atmosphere!! Great to sit and feel the breeze off the lake and enjoy a great cup! Best coffee around.. 🙌☀️☕️

The cutest and best tasting coffee shop in the lakes area! We took our drinks to go but the deck is perfect for sticking around and enjoying the lake view. The barista and owner is so sweet and kind. Her organic coffee cannot be beat!! Hands down the best latte I’ve had.

Easily the best coffee spot in Detroit Lakes. Located right on the lake, it's a wonderful place to stop and enjoy a beautiful day. It is also worth the detour from Highway 10 if you're in need of a pick-me-up on the way through. Even if you like sweeter coffee, you can still appreciate the flavor of fresh, masterfully made coffee, and the syrups taste like they're made with real ingredients. The owner and barista is a wonderful woman who is always so cheerful and such good company.
