Backstory Coffee Roasters - North Loop

“Tons of seating, living plant walls and wonderful food and staff.”

Linda Franzen★★★★★

One of the most beautiful coffee shops in Minneapolis! I tried their citrus flat white and it was excellent. The staff is super nice and there's tons of seating plus they support their community.

I had a great time visiting this cozy coffee shop for the first time today. The ambiance is wonderful & the lighting is beautiful. We ordered three different drinks & my favorite was their special matcha latte, it was absolutely amazing! The staff was also very friendly. Definitely recommend!

So the lattes and pastries are good, and I appreciate the creative seasonal drinks and items. There is also a food pantry with food, baby supplies, some flyers, and other resources, including a staff mutual aid fund. The natural lighting and plants are lovely. However! It seems like every time I visit, the wait is longer. The other day in a line with four people ahead of me, I waited for over ten minutes to place my order. A woman who arrived after me left after waiting for several minutes because the line didn’t move. There’s a couch directly next to the line where unhoused people like to lay

Super friendly staff. Open, airy, and quiet atmosphere. Lots of people working. Dog friendly. A nice place to relax and work. Stop in if you’re in the area. Their seasonal Lemon Bar Latte is amazing.
