Amazing coffee flights, cool hip ambience!

A bit loud for a coffeeshop, definitely more a social/brewery feel. Not a bad place, and it's nice to have a 3rd space in the neighborhood where not much is happening. I had a black cold brew, which had that asparagus taste some coffees have. I feel like some tapestries or plants on the walls or something could help with the echo-eyness and make the place feel more cozy.

I'm no hater of indie coffee bars (I frequent Spyhouse) but this place is a hard-pass. First of all - it has an identity problem - is it a brewery or coffee bar? Yes, they both brew - but 2 in 1 is not a thing with coffee and beer. Staff wasn't friendly. I told them it was my first time there, and they never mentioned where to pick up my coffee. When I asked after 7 min, they told it was there (behind a door on a counter), where my cappucino was getting cold. Thanks a lot.

The atmosphere was nice. I feel like it's more of a place to meet people rather than to work as it gets quite loud. I visited on a late Saturday morning and it was pretty busy. I'm giving the "food" 3 stars because the "hot" coffee flight I ordered was not hot. Three were warm and one was cold. It's definitely been my least favorite coffee flight experience so far and it's disappointing because that's the whole reason I wanted to visit.

Mid Feb visit. In Minnesota. That's winter right? Yes. But no? I get it, this winter was lame. BUT opening the large garage doors 3 times in 1 hour was crazy, I can't believe that dude on the forklift had the balls to keep going back/forth with a bin. In this span of an hour I watched 9 customers get up and leave. In true 'MN nice' style, they were passively aggressively huffing and puffing until their patience blew down. These customers gave the evil eye to forklift bro and barista hipsters that were too busy talking about their recent failed dates, all employees too consumed with themselves to realize customers were pissed. I left too in solidarity of supporting the movement for going to places that offer a warmer environment where my nips are not as hard as agates. In all fairness, coffee and pastries here were alright, that's about it.

I stoppped by with my kids and husband for coffee. The coffee was good, the doughnut iced with brown butter frosting was amazing! The vibe was really friendly. There were multiple families as well as an area mostly filled with solo people working. Dogs welcome. We hope to return next time we are in the area.

Great coffee! Small parking lot is my only complaint. Appear to have a lot of outdoor seating for summer.

I had a difficult time figuring out where this place was or where to park. It's in kind of an industrial area with a food truck parked in the lot. It said Wild on the side of the building but there were many doors so I just started walking and finally saw a gentleman walk out with coffee. There were no signs that I could tell indicating coffee. Aha found it. I looked this place up because I travel a lot and am a coffee enthusiast so I look for local roasters. I looked this place up based on the fact they do pour overs. So I asked for a pour over. I was told no because they wouldn't have those beans until Thursday. Ummm ok then give me an Americano I guess. I asked for drip but she recommended I get this. So I did. It was sour. I think you need to figure out your grind size. It was nice inside I guess for a coffee/brewery place. Not a cozy coffee shop but it looks like it was popular. I was just disappointed in what I got. I would be interested in their pour over.

I was at the Richfield DMV and needed a treat for withstanding that mandatory adulting requirement... and had a little extra time to kill: cue Wild Grind. Wild Grind - I think it named after all the millennials that are trying to do a 'wild grind' in this thing called life. You'll see them sitting around this place at 8:45am on a Friday. I was happy to could find a place that wasn't one of the mainstream places, prices are only slightly higher than what you'd hope for. Trying to live out my pre-single mom days, I was elated to see coffee flights on the menu. Delightful and delicious it didn't disappoint. I just wish I had someone to share it with. For some bakery foods and the croissant may have taken me back to my excursion days in my 20s backpacking across Europe. Look up the website. Looks like they turn into a wine and brewery at night. I'd try them again! Hope you take a chance on them too.

Great espresso. Great cortado. Friendly baristas. I’m not a sweet drink drinker, but they have rotating specialty coffee drinks. I had one, and it was decent. They have a proprietary blend of beans through a local coffee roaster, and the taste is really good.They sell pastries supplied by Rustica and donuts by Bogarts. The pastries tend to thin out toward the afternoon, but if you can snag them in time, you’ll be happy because they’re of good quality.Dogs are allowed, and there’s plenty of space inside especially during the weekdays. Parking can be challenging, mostly on the weekends though.I’ve visited maybe 10 times, and I waited until now to write this review. My weekday visit experience has been of consistent quality.

Great coffee shop with lots of really cool merch. They have both coffee and beer available here, and lots of tables both indoor and outdoor. Once every few months they have seasonal/holiday markets which have small/local owned business stalls there. Really nice stuff but be warned, it’s super busy and you’ll have to park a ways away.The coffee flights were great - each was pretty different. The cayenne coffee has a bit of a kick that offsets the sweetness of the candy cane mocha, and the kiss of sage really did taste like sage. I wasn’t a big fan of the sage but that’s kind of my own fault for ordering it anyway. I’ll probably be back!
