Amazing Grace Cafe + Grocery

Fantastic sandwiches, I had the Turkey Bacon Brie and all the flavours just worked together. The atmosphere is a basement based dining area, with low light and free seating. Overall, a very good lunch area. 4 stars only because the ordering counter conflicts with the flow of customers trying to get through. Recommend checking it out for great local food!

Awesome food and great coffee! Gotta get past the wait staff, though. I've been in here multiple times over the past few years, and the waitresses always seem like it's a super huge imposition to take you. I'm not exaggerating when I say that today I saw a Rock, Paper, Scissors battle to see who would take my girlfriend and I. Seriously? Just understand that you're bothering the waitresses by setting foot in here, and you'll love what the cooks and baristas whip up.

Nice place with dog-friendly outdoor patio. We stopped here on 4/19 during a quick day trip to Duluth (after Grandma's Saloon notified us that their patio seating was not open yet [at 3pm] and they suggested we go elsewhere with the dog). The prices here seemed reasonable considering everything is fresh. Lots of folks were here ordering beer and coffee drinks. For ~$38 we had lunch for two (burgers with sides), a water, glass of milk ($2) and two huge ginger (gingersnap) cookies ($1.75 ea but they were huge & really good). We could have split a cookie and burger and that would have been plenty (now we know for next time). Their pickles are like a mix of bread & butter with a hint of dill. The plate (in picture next to mine) had a cheeseburger w/ pickle and side of fresh fruit (cluster of grapes, half of an orange and half of a banana). One thing is I wish the staff told you protocol with dishes when they brought the plates out. I stood in line for a few minutes, after we finished our lunch, waiting to ask if we leave the dishes on the table or if we bring them in and put them somewhere. Not a huge inconvenience but something to suggest for future reference!

1st time here. 5/31/21. Amazing Grace coffee & Bakery. I saw 2 entrances here, one from the outside, and one from inside dewitt-seitz building, both involve stairs. So I don't know if it's handicap accessible? I don't know if there is an elevator that goes down to the basement. * my coffee was about $3, my muffin was $3.50, I think a cookie was $2.30? Blueberry rhubarb muffin intrigued me. I just needed a little snack to get me going. * if you are a heavy creamer user, Make sure to literally show them with your fingers how much of the coffee cup you need to be empty, to add creamer. My husband said please make sure to leave enough room for creamer and they left like a quarter of an inch... * I took a picture of the trash can, because there is only one small hole for only one style of coffee cup, which is the strangest thing to me. They sell takeaway containers that would never fit in that garbage can so you would have to lift up the top to put your garbage in there.. that seems gross.

Delicious. We chose it based on another review that said "great coffee". Pretty risky to follow a stranger's recommendation regarding coffee, but it was worth it. Good coffee, friendly wait staff, we had been warned it's slightly slow but just because every single thing is made from scratch. Didn't really seem extra slow though. Oatmeal pancake are tasty and the local syrup is amazing. The pic is the bangers and hash

Amazing Grace Bakery needs no introduction. The food was amazing, absolutely phenomenal. The atmosphere was alive. The live music was am excellent selection. The service was really quite good despite the business, and I mean busy. It was supposed to be a 45 minute wait for 2, but we were seated in 5 minutes luckily. Had we not been, we may have missed out on the best breakfast ever. The quality of ingredients is amazing. The menu is diverse and full of surprises. I can't wait to come back. One damper was the hostess. Clearly a slammed Sunday morning, she was a little sarcastic and "I hate my job" for my taste, but we forgot about her shortly after being seated.

Liked the venue and decor. They have a stage which I am assuming they do live music. Service was friendly and good but a little slow, but they were the only employee and they were taking orders and making drinks. I got a spiced brown sugar latte, it was superb, also something different. It is located in the basement but is accessible from the outside of the building. There is also a small grocery store here.

IMPORTANT - they only have breakfast Saturday and Sunday. Delicious coffee, tea, pops and cookies always available. Of course like many places they could use more staff.
