1st Cup Cafe
2740 Minnehaha Ave, Minneapolis, MN
Crema's Take
“This cozy Minneapolis cafe shines brightest as a gathering spot where hospitality feels genuine and the spiced tea tastes like comfort in a cup—though coffee isn't their strongest suit. The real stars are the house-made touches: exceptional chicken wraps with homemade hot sauce and sambusas that pack serious flavor, making it an ideal spot for lingering conversations with friends or family over food that actually matters.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Light food on the menu. Family friendly.
