Crema's Take

Darling is a leisurely Minneapolis brunch destination where the menu shines as much as the atmosphere—think aji verde-spiked breakfast burritos, thoughtfully curated vegan dishes, and standout items like crispy falafel alongside classics like corned beef hash. It's the kind of place where people linger for hours, whether they're working solo, playing cards with friends, or gathering in larger groups, making it feel less like a coffee shop and more like a community living room that happens to serve excellent food and coffee.

Had a late lunch at Darling this afternoon with the gals - neat lil place. People came to sit and do work; I saw couple of people playing cards; there was a larger group there as well. You can seat yourself and orders can be taken at the front. You can also sit at the counter. I got the Corned beef hash with a side of fries. The entree had a bit of a kick to it which paired with the flavors, I really enjoyed it! Whatever seasoning the fries are tossed in 🤌 the vanilla steamer also had the perfect amount of sweetness. I would love to be back to try other dishes!

Darling is the perfect Minneapolis brunch spot. What a great find❗The atmosphere is lovely, but the menu is the real star. It’s rare to find a place where the vegan dishes feel just as curated as the rest of the menu. Pair your meal with one of their Bloody Marys; you won't regret it!"

We got the breakfast burrito and the heirloom BLT. Both tasted fresh and were portioned well. The burrito’s aji verde sauce was a standout, adding a great pop of flavor. I intend to return here next time I’m in the area.

It's an all-around charming place for breakfast. They seemed a little short-staffed, but our server was good. My friend had the corned beef hash, and I had the falafel. The falafel was delicious, with a tzatziki that was really great. I got the fries on the side, which were crisp and tasty. Happily, they had decaf already brewed. Outdoor seating would have been perfect except for some friendly wasps. We opted for an indoor table. Would love to come back here for dinner sometime.

I’ve been meaning to try Darling since it opened, and I finally stopped by for brunch this past weekend with my mom. It was thoroughly pleasant experience, but with steep prices and small(ish) portions, I can’t say it will enter my brunch rotation. I ordered a refreshing and creamy mango concoction. I really enjoyed it, but I think it would’ve been even better with tapioca pearls or mango jellies. My mom and I split the avocado toast. The bread was so fresh and might’ve been made in house, but I can’t say for sure. The avocado was perfectly ripe, and I loved the crunch of the seeds that garnished it. My main dish was a mushroom tartine with fries, and I loved everything about it. I just wish it were slightly bigger. Thicker bread might have helped. The fries were perfect, and the ketchup tasted house made. My mom ordered the corned beef hash, and she loved the spice level and the roasted veggies. She’s used to a shredded hash, so this was different, but she still enjoyed the meat preparation. Darling is a great spot to check out if you’re looking for slightly pricier brunch with fresh, intentional dishes. The dining area is bright and charming. It’s nice to have a cute spot like this in the neighborhood.
