Five Watt Coffee, E Hennepin

Most of my east side meet/greets are done here.

Coffee is outstanding and it's typically quieter than most small coffee shops can be; location is great too.

I'd still go but if it's ever possible, it'd be great to see a patio or extended outside seating. Tough spot because of road noise but it's the only thing lacking for me.

Service and time to wait is awesome. Keep it up!

The staff was so welcoming and genuine. I asked for recommendations and they gave me their favorites along with drinks they see ordered again and again. My latte was good but the almond croissant was DELICIOUS. I would e included a picture but I inhaled that thing. Would literally go back to this coffee shop just because of the croissant and good customer service.

Hands down the best specialty coffee drinks in the city period. Cool hip industrial location, friendly staff. Vetted as a great place to chat with a friend, but also a good spot to dig into your work on a laptop. (Plugs a plenty, with a name like that they'd HAVE to, right?)

By far some of the nicest staff of all the coffee shops in MN I’ve been to. I moved but their coffee is great and their vibe is greatly missed.

Friendly baristas and stand out coffee options. I had a smoky sea salt thing that was delicious: not too sweet. It's a nice change of pace from the sugary dessert drinks everywhere else! Regular brewed coffee is great as well. Decent seating options and lots of parking.

Really great coffee, teas, and other creative drinks. Vegan friendly. Lots of outlets. Good option to work from. Really friendly staff. Bike parking out front. Some picnic tables outside. Right next to Headflyer Brewery, so there are sometimes food trucks out front for extra food options.

I live nearby and I've been here several times. I like the atmosphere, the baristas are pretty friendly, the coffee is awesome, and the parking is plentiful, but there's just not enough seating. Four times now I've arrived alone or with one friend and had to leave because there were no open seats at all. There seem to be a lot of students and others who camp out here with their laptops for many hours, which I understand, but because of this, I often choose other coffee shops to avoid the inconvenience of arriving only to turn around and leave.

Very unique coffee selections that come with designs the wife took pictures of. A leaf and a heart I believe. I had the all-day/all-night which is a butterscotch espresso. It was fantastic. Cool atmosphere and it appears they may have music there as well.

One of Google’s questions was: Is this place romantic? Well, if you get here early enough, the ambiance is fresh, quiet and relaxed which to me is very intimate for when I wanna get coffee alone, with The Book and enjoy my Saturday morning.
The open space makes it feel very free when it’s not busy. There are plenty of opportunities for intimate conversations with their abundant 2 top tables but, this is also a place for camaraderie with friends.

Best Cappucino in a real cup! The Cap was one of the best I've ever had. Balanced, sweet (without sugar) and not too milky. Espresso was either under-extracted or so acidic, it wasn't ideal. I'm just starting to get into light roasts, so maybe it just wasn't to my palette.
