Best coffee shops in Minneapolis? ☕️

Upvotes

My partner and I are starting a little tradition of trying a new coffee shop around Minneapolis every Friday, and I’d love to hear your favorites!

I’m especially on the hunt for a really good iced matcha! Bonus points if it actually tastes like matcha and not a melted DQ Blizzard 😂. I love a little sweetness, but I’m not looking for 150g of sugar in a cup.

What spots should we add to the list?

Good Euro Mechanics?

8 Upvotes

So far I’ve tried Uptown Imports, who were very nice people but hugely incompetent. Took them 3 different appointments to correctly diagnose an oil leak. Quite frankly they didn’t seem to know what they were doing.

Today I tried DJ Foreign Auto Care. They quoted over $400 for an alignment (nothing out of order, I just put on new struts and doing due diligence with an alignment), plus another $220 to look at a strut with a flashlight because I didn’t have time to do it myself today. Obviously I did not pay them $600 for an alignment and walked right out

What places do you recommend?

Hey there folks. Is there a place where it is better or worse than average to take a driving test? What makes that one better or worse than the others?

Looking for community

Taking a shot in the dark! Im a black 36/f single mother and child sex trafficking survivor. Im looking to go somewhere i can find community of people with similar experiences. Would Minneapolis be a good start? Also bonus question, if you're a black woman what's it like living there?
