Gray Fox Coffee

Nothing but excellence here! I’m a vendor at the Dayton’s holiday market and stop up here almost daily for my café au lait. Staff is so friendly and welcoming and keep me happily caffeinated, too! I’m going to miss having an excuse to chat them up and grab my fav bev when the market ends!

Very cool environment, love the location and the ambiance here. Guy at the counter was pleasant and the woman who handed me my $9 latte was nice. There really isn’t much more that you could ask for in your first time visiting a specific coffee shop. The only shocker to me was the PRICE! I love supporting local but $1.20 for vanilla syrup and $1.10 for Oat Milk when the drink is $5.79 feels high. Part of the total is the absurd tax that downtown ($0.97 in this case) puts on things but I’ve never bought a latte for over $9 ($9.06 if we are being specific, which I guess I am) in downtown Minneapolis. This was befire tip 🤣 Was just in SF and Seattle and neither experiences resulted in my order above being this high. I know now I sound cheap but it’s likely just sticker shock due to inflation, tariffs, our modern world, but at some point people might say yeah that’s too much. Not sure what the magic number will be. Damn good latte though. 🙏❤️

Best coffee I found thus far in downtown Minneapolis. Service was speedy and barista was polite. Location was a bit off the usual path, but worth the walk. Atmosphere basic, but not super welcoming to someone wanting to stay for a while (no chairs/tables). Come & go spot only.

Stumbled into this cozy little coffee shop on a rainy day during my business trip, and it was a perfect retreat away from work/meetings. The atmosphere was warm and inviting—exactly what I want when it’s gray outside. The coffee was fantastic, rich and smooth, and served with care.

Grateful there’s a coffee shop inside the Daytons Project downtown Minneapolis. Friendly fast service. Plenty of seating to relax. Good experience.
