Mapps Coffee
920 E Lake St, Minneapolis, MN
Crema's Take
“Mapps Coffee strikes a lovely balance between approachable espresso drinks and creative seasonal specials like their beloved pumpkin spice eggnog latte, all served by genuinely warm baristas who make you feel like a valued regular. The shop seems to nail the small-batch coffeehouse charm—they're clearly thoughtful about quality (their hot chocolate skips the powdered shortcuts) and seasonal offerings, making it feel less like a chain grab-and-go and more like a neighborhood gem worth supporting.”

Very unpleasant experience. They have one of those infernal machines where your drink comes out so unreasonably hot that it takes 20 minutes with the lid off to cool down to a drinkable temperature (and they clearly know it's too hot because the barista warned me about it). Then for payment, you have to select from 3 tipping options, starting at 18% and going up to 30% tip. Ridiculous.
The jasmine green tea was soothing and warming and I got the tea almost right away after ordering, which was nice and quick.
It's fall and the smell and flavor of pumpkin spice is everywhere but a delicious "pumpkin spice egg nog latte" only here. The girls who work here are so nice!!
The coffee and drink options are delightful, along with the owners and baristas. I so much enjoy coming here and supporting small businesses that are so vital to my neighborhood. The chai espresso latte is perfection!
I love there hot chocolate is not so sweet and I am not the type to get hot chocolate because the put water and powered milk but they don't it is soo good
