Luminary Coffeehouse
1562 Selby Ave, Saint Paul, MN
Crema's Take
“Luminary feels less like a transaction and more like a gathering place, where owner Danielle's rotating menu ensures you'll discover something new every visit, whether you're ordering a meticulously crafted espresso drink or their beloved cold brew. The baristas strike that rare balance of making regulars feel at home while welcoming newcomers with genuine warmth, creating an atmosphere where you actually want to linger and become part of the community.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks, good cold brew. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings.

One of my favorite St. Paul spots to grab a coffee and feel the good vibes. Danielle, the owner, is so sweet and friendly and cares so much for her community. The coffee is always good and I love seeing what’s on their rotating menu of specials- the Princess Mia and the Artemis…
Cute place, but If you like vanilla lattes with some sweetness I would recommend asking for sugar or something else. I ordered a vanilla latte and didn’t get to taste it until I was back on the road because it was quite hot. Only then did I realize there was no sugar at all.…
Barely any food options and a very limited drink option. I got an iced mocha and it was insanely sweet. I couldn't even finish half of it and I am a fan of frappes etc. Staff was fine. Not a lot of seating. Probably good for studying but it's not a great environment for chatting…
Absolutely love every experience at Luminary. The drinks are delicious - the crew is always coming up with something new + fun that I didn't know I needed to try! The vibes are lovely and the connection with community is so beautiful. We are really lucky to have a spot like this…
Very nice atmosphere, and very kind workers, coffee tastes great! There is signature drinks that they make and they are pretty tasty!
Luminary is not just a coffee shop, it’s a safe space for community gathering. Danielle (the owner) takes pride in her rotating coffee menu that has something for everyone. My fave are the drinks based on astrology. Go support this woman owned small business!!!
