Alle Aamin Coffee Shop
609 Cedar Ave S, Minneapolis, MN
Crema's Take
“Alle Aamin is a beloved neighborhood gathering spot that serves authentic Somali coffee and traditional dishes like malawah (sweet pancakes) and sambusas to a loyal local community near Augsburg University. The atmosphere balances quick grab-and-go convenience with a welcoming space for lingering conversations, though you'll want to go for the genuine culinary experience rather than Instagram-worthy decor. Staff genuinely care about introducing customers to their food—ask about the specialties and you'll get a warm education on what makes their offerings special.”

It has 2 problems worst food burn up sambusa and nasty rice. The second problem is highest $$$ prices on the block, one sambusa is 3 dollars when you can 2 dollars one from the same block. The rice is so little so $$$ expensive 😭 😞 I won't come back.
But if they give by measure or by weight to them, they cause loss. $17 for the small portion is too expensive fear Allah, i told them not to put too much Oil which they did, never coming back.
The food and the whole experience was amazing.. They have amazing food and coffee. Would definitely recommend to a friend. They also have reasonable prices. Should definitely go if your looking for good cultural Somali food.
Walking distance from Augsburg U, friendly service. When asked what I was eating (I decided to get what a customer got before me), cashier took time tell me about malawah...sweet Somali pancake (warm, sweet delicious!). Coffee nice and strong!
I had an excellent cup of coffee. This is a place that feeds the local Somalian community therefore authentic food is served. Not much attention is given to the visual aspect of the restaurant. But I didn't really notice because we were all watching the World Cup.
