Joseph's Coffee and Donuts
736 Oakdale Ave, Saint Paul, MN
Crema's Take
“Joseph's Coffee and Donuts is a warmly curated West Side gem where the espresso is expertly pulled and the homemade pastries (especially those donuts and apple fritters) are worth the visit alone. Beyond the coffee, the owners have crafted a genuinely welcoming space that doubles as a gallery for local artisans selling leather goods, cribbage boards, and handmade crafts—making it feel more like a creative community hub than a typical coffee shop. The staff's thoughtfulness shines through in small gestures like bringing extension cords for laptop workers, creating the kind of place where you naturally want to linger.”

It's a cool little spot to visit. Genuine leather items available for sale but at the same time they have other crafts there. Such as cribbage boards, games, and so much more. The food items are limited as they're just getting off the ground but it's still amazing what they have available. Delicious coffee and fun atmosphere, I'd recommend going here any day of the week.
Best Coffee on the West Side! Make sure and grab a yummy donut too. The people who work here have created a beautiful space and have a way of welcoming you in that makes you want to stay and hang out for a while. Truly a local gem.
Second time we’ve been here and we love it. Friendly staff and owner. No it’s not Starbucks or caribou…. It’s better in my opinion. All baked goods except the donuts are homemade. Meaning someone took the time to make sure they were perfect and yes they are perfect and delicious. If you think this place is anything less than 5 stars you’re insane.
Great little spot! The apple fritter was fantastic. The staff is super kind and accommodating - I needed an extra outlet for my dying laptop and they even brought out an extra extension cord.
Cool vibes and great people! Cold brew coffee ☕️ Blueberry lemon scone Olipop dirty soda (just ask for some cream and vanilla with ice)
