Caribou Coffee - Hopkins

I arrived here for a moment of respite during one of my Vision quests . My therapist says I should start calling them what they really are: week long benders, but I digress. After being politely informed this wasn 't a Wendy 's, I requested a breakfast sandwich that they would think is as close to a Baconator as possible. I think I also ordered a Hot Apple Butt Blast or something.  The fireplace area is nice and cozy, and I enjoyed the area all to myself after a Mother and child left quickly at my presence. Soon, with crumbs of my sandwich covering my shirt, I slumbered.  I was awoken with the poking of a broom stick. The employee Leah informed me I needed to leave, they close at three. She was alright,  I think I tipped her but it might have been a page of my vision quest notes. Don 't read it it might contain terrible secrets.

Coffee was good, as usual. The apple fritter was stale and hard as a rock. Very disappointing.

A fun group of baristas. They were so kind and easy to talk to. Very helpful. The coffee was amazing, as usual with any Caribou Coffee Shop. Great location. Great hours. Great parking. Great seating. It?s all great.

I love Caribou coffee. There aren't any down south where I live. Whenever I get up to Minnesota one of the first things to do is find the closest Caribou coffee and enjoy. Always friendly staff.

I woke up at 3:00 AM to take my son to the airport and decided to stop at this Caribou Coffee on my way home. I arrived a few minutes before they opened, so I waited in my car. When the employee unlocked the door at 5:00 AM, I went inside to order a coffee. However, the woman who had just opened up spoke to me in a very rude manner, saying, "Can't you wait until we turn on the light?" I was surprised by her unfriendly greeting, especially since I had arrived right when they opened. It felt like a poor attitude that was the exact opposite of good customer service. Feeling unwelcome, I left and enjoyed my coffee on the street, where I was greeted with kindness instead.
