769 Cleveland Ave S, St. Paul, MN 55116
Would I go back? Yes
I parked a block away adjacent to the cute street of Cleveland Ave. Busy, yet quaint, it made me fall more in love with St. Paul. Quixotic Coffee sits in the midst of it all. I started my morning there with a currant scone infused with earl grey from a local bakery. YUM. Have I mentioned how much I love that we accept eating cake-like things for breakfast? Its awesome. This coffee shop is great. They have ample seating and a very minimalist style going on. I enjoy the amount of bar-style seating they have. Not all coffee shops have this and its something I really like to see. I, however, chose the couch because why not? On the walls they have hanging by an industrial wire, beautiful photographs. My guess is they come from local photographers. Although its something I've definitely seen before, it worked very well with the shop. The photos gave the store a warmer feel that I really enjoyed.
My friend and I both got a pour over. Quixotic has a fairly minimal menu which is a green light for me because that means they do the classics and they do them well. A good pour over is always a gem to find. Each cup they pour they fresh grind the coffee. Thumbs up for that. Good work. I was able to see the barista make it right in front of my eyes at the front of the counter. I appreciate being able to watch artistry. Yes, coffee is an art. A tasty art. It was an extremely enjoyable cup of coffee. If I'm ever in that neighborhood again, Quixotic will definitely be on my list to go to again. It will be a good addition to your day of shopping at the local bookstore (not that I did that or anything). May your coffee be caffeinated,
Sarah
