River Rock

Great place to sit and get some work done or to just have a cup of coffee. The back room has plenty of outlets if you need to charge your phone or have a long paper to write. I have had my papers proof read by a worker there without even asking. Nice shop, nice drinks and food, and nice employees.

Little spendy but well worth it. Me and the wife stopped by for breakfast, I got a hot cocoa and an amazing broccoli quiche, the wife got a chai tea with oat milk that she seems to be coveting and a delicious hand pie. Love it.

Always have very interesting, creative coffee options. The interior is minimal and fresh. Love that they offer & support locally produced goods!

Visiting the new River Rock in Mankato gives me the same vibe as St. Peter. Coffee just tastes better when I’m in my comfort zone, and the River Rocks settle me there. Maybe it’s the aesthetics, baristas and variety of taste adventures. They’re all warm. I love the soft lighting and listenable music, wondering sometimes if, while there, I’ve ever heard the same song twice. The more ambitious I get diverging from the predictable coffees, teas, healthy foods and calorie-splurging treats, the more enthusiastic the baristas wax while enlightening about the ingredients, originations and geographies. It’s as if they know three quick things about everything they offer and efficiently inform/entertain. I know the many regulars’ comfort derives from the same daily fare, so the baristas remember and reach, actually, an instant before confirming the order. River Rock’s baristas blend “swift” with “friendly” or “friendly” with “swift” depending on the length of the line. Either way, when I get to the counter, they make me feel their attention is all mine. Suffice it to say, a visit to River Rock in Mankato or St. Peter enhances any given day.

Quick stop here during a road trip. Loved the local vibes and the iced espresso was a cooling delight!

I love this place! We always stop here on the way to Minneapolis.
Love the decor, the friendly service, and delicious coffee and treats!

Thank you sooooooooooo much for the delicious scone and beverage this morning. Sorry fast food and gas stations in the area. You need to step your game up. beverage 10/10. Scone 10/10. Service 10/10. Environment 10/10. Sorry no pic of the scone. It was gone before I knew it.

Little pricey, but so worth it. Lots of vegan options, as well as a few gluten free options for y'all! (Highly recommend their cold brew to drink and their cinnamon rolls to eat)

Way friendly people here who helped me choose a specialty latte from their waaaay long list of amazing sounding drinks! I'm sad to only be passing through but know I'll be back next time!

Nice coffee shop with a nice atmosphere. Staff was friendly and didn't have to wait long for my drink. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for coffee.
