If you love chocolate like I do , get a CAMPFIRE LATTE (espresso, chocolate, caramel, milk, graham crumbs, marshmallow). It was heavenly. One of the best lattes I have had. I didn’t like the sandwich, the bread was hard and it didn’t have good seasoning. That’s the reason for the 4 star rating. Service was very friendly and fast. And I liked the atmosphere and design of the cafe. Great Coffee spot in St Paul.

Great place, beautiful plants. I like that you come in, sit, and order from the QR code on the table. The coffee was great and pretty designs for the ladies. The croissant was cold but it tasted great, fresh. We also ordered a crepe with Nutella and strawberries. It was delicious! Definitely coming back!

Hands down the best coffee place I’ve ever been to. Ordered the ham, Swiss, egg and tomatoe sandwich. It was so flavorful! The 24k latte was creative and was delicious! This will be my “go to place” next time I’m in town.

Absolutely adore this cafe! Located in a beautifully curated historic building. Consistently cheerful, amazing service. The quality and selection of delicious food and beverages is excellent. I like that there are options for ordering: you can scan a QR code to order directly to your table, if you’re eating in, or order at the counter if preferred. You can order ahead online. There’s lots of seating available indoors and outside too. Parking is in high demand-it is worth finding a spot and walking!

Stopped here when I had a couple hours to kill and get some work done. The food came out quickly and was delicious. There was so much seating for both large groups and small parties so I didn’t feel bad taking a table for myself. The space itself is industrial and eclectic super cute and cozy feeling while also being clean. Staff was so on top of it noticing what tables needed and cleaning up right away. I ended up buying the green smoothie bowl- fun but too sweet for me, and the potatoes bra as which were delicious!

Fantastic food, a great ambience, and a lovely set of staff. I am in love with the Chicken Caesar wrap and belle breakfast sandwich (both taste amazing and are a great price for the amount of food you get). Speed round of rating other things there:: -black garlic chicken sandwich 8.5/10 -side of sausage 8/10 so delicious -chicken Ticino bowl 7/10 (chicken could be more flavorful) -turkey Swiss apple crepe 6/10 (not super flavorful and under seasoned) -apparently the grilled salmon sandwich and the pimento sandwich are very good too People love the coffee and sweet crepes here

Cafe Astoria is a great little place for a nice brunch on a weekend. The food here is excellent, and the quality is off the charts. They don't do reservations, and you have to seat yourself. Every table has a QR code, and they will bring it straight to the table. You can also order over the counter. Coming to food, the savory crepes are delicious, and the lemon ricotta pancakes are a must order. All their beverage options are delicious as well and perfect for a cold winter morning. Parking is limited to free street parking and can be tough to find.

Layback, self sitting/ordered. Friendly staffs brings your order to your table (loved it). They do offer gluten free options. We enjoyed crème brûlée, latte w/gold, iced chocolate, hot chocolate(offered kids temperature). Generous salad Dressing overpowering the taste of avocado toast. Toasts are very dry to me and roasted potatoes are way too salty with average bacons. Fluffy scrambled eggs were very good. Chocolate with strawberries crepes were on point.

Cafe Astoria has the cutest coffee and matcha drinks you'll ever see! Their specialty drinks are so fun - think s'mores, rainbow art, and gold flakes. Not to mention, they also serve yummy smoothie bowls and crepes. The cafe itself is super cute, too! Finding parking can be a bit of a hassle with all the permit-only street spots, but it's totally worth circling around to grab some great food and coffee at Cafe Astoria!

Cafe Astoria is my favorite local cafe in the twin cities, specifically in my hometown of Saint Paul. This is a total gem! Astoria is a Filipino owned business, as a Filipino myself, I have to give major props to this company. I adore the menu and their coffee and tea varieties. They have it all from sweet treats, like crêpes to savory breakfast sandwiches and sides of fried potatoes. You can also have a side salad instead of potatoes for all of their entrées. I have had everything from the wise guy chicken sandwich (1000/10 recommend), banana strawberry Nutella crêpes, to trying just about every viral drink they have in the menu, there's something for everyone! Just thinking about the menu now is making me hungry, don't skip out on the grilled chicken sandwich, the chicken is extremely juicy, and the sandwich flavor profile is sensational!

This place has such amazing drink! The services were great as well. My friends and I came to Cafe Astoria to do some planning for our trip, and we were in there for more than 90 minutes and we were approached by a staff member. They were nice enough to let us stay and informed us if it gets too busy, they will have to kick us out. Which it does get busy, but lucky there weren't many people and people were going in and out of the cafe. Therefore, customer services was great. I got the ube matcha teddy bear drink and that was delicious and yummy. I had a tough decision to order that or just a regular matcha, which I do not regret my decision. The breakfast sandwich I got was delicious as well with the scramble egg and sausage. The salad was tasty as well (i need to know the dressing for it). The ambiance was great and lively, people were going in and out and enjoying a little self-time. It was a great experience, but the only bad thing about this cafe is the parking. It is very hard to find parking around the place.

Stopped in for some lattes. They had quick service and brought our drinks to our tables. They were the most beautiful lattes I've had and so so tasty as well! Had the crème brûlée latte, which was delicious, and the rainbow latte with peppermint mocha was a cute hit! Great atmosphere to chill. There are beautiful murals and plants. Would recommend!

I have a soft spot in my heart for Cafe Astoria because of its Filipino ownership. When you walk in you are immediately stricken with its colorful walls and charming decor. I loved the sinigang Campbell soup print specifically. It makes for a great Instagram story! It's located on Grand Ave in Saint Paul in the heart of the city, so the location is great for that reason. One downside to this is that parking can be hard to come by and as someone who hates parallel parking, I had to face my fears for this. I'd recommend visiting sometime during the week, as they have signs asking customers to limit their visit to 60 minutes during their busiest mornings on Saturdays and Sundays. They have free WiFi, which is always a plus. They have a large array of drinks and great food, you can find something for everyone there! From rainbow colored lattes to gold-laden matcha, their drinks are unique, vibrant, and aesthetically pleasing. I got the Leah's Happy Place iced matcha and it was a bit sweet for my taste and the matcha wasn't the highest quality (I look for vibrant, bright green matcha) but the lavender and pistachio flavor profile was pretty good. If I were to order it again, I'd as for half sweetness. Besides that, I was able to get my drink right as I paid since the barista was so fast! Overall, I'd recommend Cafe Astoria for anyone looking for a unique and fun experience with Instagram worthy ambiance and drinks! Support local businesses, especially Filipino-owned

This place was great. I planned on going to a place nearby with a friend, but we settled here instead due to the long wait. Let me tell ya what, this place did not disappoint. We got a table right away during busy hours. The first thing I enjoyed was the convenience. When we approached the counter, the barista told us about ordering at our table via QR codes. They offer outside seating, indoor high-top seating, and traditional dining, all of which are "seat yourself." The menu was full of different options for all sorts of taste buds. ALL menu items are customizable and can be done via the QR code. The coffee options were great. The details were broken down by the temperature of the coffee you'd like. I ordered the Creme Brûlée latte, one of their unique flavors. It did not disappoint. The vibe is very leafy, green, and open. It almost feels like you're in a tropical cafe. The noise level was a casual conversation with no music. I will return. It's a perfect date spot.

Wow wow wow! What you see is what you get here! Located right across from Hope Breakfast Bar you will find this gem of a cafe, filled with tasty wholesome food and creative drinks and coffee. Go back in time with me: Blue Berry and Lemon Currd pancakes - so so good! I really don't care for lemon flavored food items, but for some reason I felt deep down that it would be good. AND I WAS RIGHT! The pancakes were so soft and moist that I barely used the maple syrup. Only added a little for the mapley flavor :) Banana Nutella French toast - once again, talk about moist and fluffy! Portions are great and very much shareable. This dish was well made and did not disappoint -- would definitely order this again! Iced Matcha - shockingly surpassed my expectations because more often than not, when I order matcha drinks from most cafes *let's be honest for a sec* -- they taste like grass :/ BUT these folks are deviating from the norm and I couldn't be happier. 24k Gold Latte - after a long night of partying with friends, this served me well as a boost to my day. Loved it! Last but not least - a really casual but pleasant flow of service was had! Everyone on their team seems coordinated and joyful. Great music selection and very tidy btw. Although, I didn't get the chance this time to try these, next time I go, I wanna try their chilaquiles, or one of their salad options. Someone next to me ordered one of each and they looked so appetizing.

What a wonderful experience!! This is a terrific cafe and their menu choices and beautiful coffee/tea options really make you feel like you are treating yourself to something special! We got the Matcha 2.0 Latte and the Rainbow Latte for our drinks. Now...are these some of the most beautiful drinks I've ever had? Yes!! Were they also delicious and well-made? Yes! We also decided to have a little breakfast and I had the Frenchie with the salad (choice of salad or breakfast potatoes available as your side), and she ordered the avocado toast with egg. The Frenchie was delicious and on a beautiful croissant, but my only recommendation was to flavor the mushrooms/sandwich a bit more. It was lacking a bit between the eggs and the mushrooms but the croissant itself had a wonderful flavor. It came with a salad on the side that was fresh and was dressed with a lovely vinaigrette. The avocado toast was delicious with very nice flavor, a beautifully prepared egg on top, and wonderful ripe avocado. Very tasty! Finally the space itself was fantastic! The cafe looks small but they have a very large area back to the left of the counter which is sunny with plenty of tables. Each table has a QR code so you can order and pay from your phone and they deliver the food to your table based on the number (knows when you use the QR on the table). This allows you to come in and find your table right away and order/pay from there instead of waiting in a line. GREAT idea!!! First time there but not my last for sure!! Wonderful experience!

Cafe Astoria was one of the best breakfast spots we went to while in St Paul. They open an hour before their neighbor across the street (which we had reservations to go to) and are so glad we went to Cafe Astoria first. Their smoothie bowl was fresh and delicious and my wife loved their breakfast sandwich, coffee was also great. The cafe itself is cute and quaint and modern, very relaxed.

This place never disappoints. amazing service & lattes that I dream of for days Delicious food of all sorts: pancakes, crepes, smoothie bowls, sandwiches, bakery items. & the space itself is every girls dream. It has the natural brick, a beautiful mural and plants galore **this place is very busy & it is very hard to get a table. They do not take reservations. If a table is empty feel free to grab it. They also have contactless ordering as an option at a table!

Great character/ambiance in the building. I got in quickly, which was nice. I used the QR code on the table to order, and the result was that I didn't have a dedicated server. Someone delivered the food (which came quickly) without comment, and no one ever asked if I needed anything. I hadn't ordered a drink and wanted water, and I had to flag someone down, which was awkward. As for the food itself, I ordered the strawberry and lemon curd crepe, a side salad, and the crème brulée latte. The crepe was okay but kind of bland. I enjoyed the salad. The latte was tasty and had crunchy bits on top. My only complaint there was that the entire latte was foamy. All in all, pretty good but a bit overpriced, and I wish someone had stopped by my table once to follow up.

At certain times it gets very busy here. Servers seemed overwhelmed and almost hesitant to sit anyone. It took a while to have a seat. Came back a at a quieter hour in the evening but can't say there is an improvement in service. You pick your seat then either order at QR code through Toast or have walk around to the front of the restaurant. You only get full service if you choose dinner--and they ask you beforehand if you plan to eat. If you're not sure you get seated at the casual side of the place. If you know for sure you'll be getting dinner you get the table with the linen. On that side the servers are attentive. Otherwise you won't see their face. Rainbow matcha is ok. Gold dust latte taste much better though they skimp on the golf and charge you the same amount as if you asked for additional gold (up charge of $3 on a latte). Shakshuka is a good solid plate There are no snacks or pastries after a certain time do there are no small things to munch on with your coffee order if you don't order dinner or breakfast. Probably will not come back as pretty as some of their lattes are, the service does not inspire one to come back.

This highly Instagrammed cafe is a stop I'd recommend for a mental health day/Treat Yourself Day if you want to get one of their popular secret menu lattes. These "Secret Menu" drinks are beautiful, well-crafted, and delicious, but they come with a $8-$10 (including tip) price tag. They do have regular lattes that are at regular, small business prices ($5-$7). I tried the 24K amaretto latte by recommendation, and while it was amazing, it was $9 w/ tip. I will definitely try one of the specialty lattes for my next visit. Note that they are only open 7am to 3pm, and closed on Mondays. Parking: they say the streets of downtown St. Paul were designed by a drunken Irishman, so be prepared to drive around a bit if you're going on a weekend. There's a mix of meter and free on-street parking. Restrooms: they say they're not public restrooms, but they are open for customers. Very clean, single toilet bathroom (I appreciate the handle that tells you if it's vacant). Accessibility: no steps to get in and around for folks with mobility issues. For those in the Hearing Impaired Club, we've got wood, metal, and brick surrounding us with cafe music playing in the background. The kitchen is open, so take that into account. There's a good variety of seating.

I really like this place and it would be five star but for having to place my order on my phone. I hate it and it's putzy. Apart from that, excellent food and amazing gorgeous coffee drinks. Love the outdoor space.

Let's talk my Sunday afternoon visit to Cafe Astoria in St. Paul! The Not So Great: -The restaurant is seat yourself. Due to the layout of the restaurant (narrow and long) it's tough to determine if there are seats available when the restaurant is busy. -There are QR codes at the table, which is how you place your order. It brought me back to 2020. -Everything was brought out randomly. First my friends side potato's arrived, then her drink. Then my drink arrived, then my food. I didn't like the random trickled deliveries. -Everything seemed to lack...flavor. What I ordered: I decided on a lavender chai, a side of potatoes, and lemon ricotta pancakes. A little spice would have gone a LONG way for each thing I ordered. Everything was underwhelming. Overall: I wish I was more excited about Cafe Astoria, but it just missed the mark.

Just love this spot! It was nice enough to sit outside the last time we visited, which is nice since the interior is a bit smaller. The coffee here is so fun and definitely photo-worthy. My absolute fave is the campfire mocha; I just love the Graham cracker rim and that marshmallow! I would say they are also known for their crepes, which are fantastic. The last visit, though, we had more traditional breakfast items of French toast and pancakes. Both were so good, albeit, a bit on the sweeter side. Service is usually pretty fast and dogs are allowed on the patio too.

Everyone knows Astoria is a vibe! Seems like this place is always so busy. I recommend getting a place to sit before grabbing a in house coffee just because space is so limited. I was a first timer so I obviously had to get the prettiest (imo) item on the menu, THE RAINBOW MATCHA LATTE, and she was an absolute work of art. Cheers to the artist in the back! Can't wait to try another beautiful cup of Java.

Whether for beauty, coffee, or flavor, this is your go to location when in St. Paul, MN. Spacious cafe with indoor and outdoor seating, tasty sweet and savory crepe and breakfast options, available all day. Beautiful art work provides the perfect background for beautiful cafe drinks, which includes everything on the matcha menu or just order the popular rainbow latte.

Trying to find a good breakfast place on way home from a concert and the menu looked fantastic. We pulled in to a very quaint little neighborhood and knew it would be good. We ordered the eggplant shakshuka, chilaquiles verde with chorizo and the prosciutto breakfast sandwich. The service was outstanding and food better yet. The seasoning of the chilaquiles was a perfect blend of flavor and heat. The eggplant shakshuka was a bit more runny than have had it past but wonderful flavors. Prosciutto sandwich was good- maybe missing some cheese or more sauce. Highly recommend!!

I really liked this place! They have an option to order at the counter (if you're getting coffee or pastries to go), or you can find a table and order using the QR code. Our group of 5 ordered separately our five meals and even though we submitted them at about the same time, our food came out staggered and by the time we started, most of peoples food was cold. However, it was delicious. I really enjoyed my spinach, chèvre, and egg crepe. My friends all ordered different lattes, croissant breakfast sandwiches, and sweet breakfasts like Nutella crepes or lemon ricotta pancakes. My crepe was well portioned and also had a nice ratio of spinach to cheese to egg. The cheese was so good. I had never had goat cheese in a crepe before and I'm so glad I tried it today. They have a water cup station for getting water. The table wasn't the cleanest but otherwise everything was good. Maybe I'm just used to California prices but for $14 to get a full on breakfast, I was very happy.

Just went to Cafe Astoria for the first time today, and it won't be the last time I visit while I'm in town! The servers were friendly and chatty, the food came out quick, the ambiance was cozy, and the worst thing we had was better than the best things I've had at comparable cafes around the Twin Cities - drinks and food. Can't recommend this place enough! The only warning we have is that it's difficult to find parking. Suggestion: Try the Matcha 2.0 Latte, Crème Brûlée Latte, and "Pecan Sticky Bun" French Toast!

Cafe Astoria has been on my hit list for too long, not for lack of trying. Each time it was either parking was too insane or the wait was. I was pleasantly surprised I snagged parking and a table fairly easily on a Sunday at noon. It's street parking in a somewhat busy area, and it's first come first serve for tables. If you have more than 2 in your group, you'll probably be waiting for longer than your hunger will allow before your body gives up and then you're a hangry beast. You order at the counter, then get a table, there are QR codes on tables for you to order if you grab a table first, but the QR codes didn't all work. My friend and I enjoyed coffee and shared a few dishes. I tried the 24k latte, it was fine, I wouldn't order it again. It came out luke warm and I didn't get much white chocolate flavor. Our favorite dish was the savory prosciutto, spinach, and chèvre crepe. It was huge and scrumptious. The eggplant shakshuka had a lot of punch, but could have been hotter. Lastly, the cacio e pepe, I should have passed on, it was bland. They have a serve yourself water station, which I love, but their glasses smelled like dirty rag, I'd bring your own water bottle. The counters and tables by the door are very cold, so I would try to avoid that if you're dining in the winter. We started at a counter and moved to a table in a more central and warmer area when we ordered food. Overall, I enjoyed the experience and would keep coming back for breakfast and brunch.

After several visits. in nearly all seasons, Cafe Astoria delivers every time. The eggplant shakshuka is my all time favorite. The subtle spice and fresh sauce when mixed with broken egg yolk from a poached egg create an unctuous treat to dip the grilled bed. Every coffee we have ordered comes expertly crafted and worthy of Instagram. My favorite is the Mexican Mocha, Just a hint of spice to jazz up your morning. The harissa potato and egg wrap, while good flavor, was a bit dry. The pastries are always fresh and high quality. You really can't go wrong. They close at 3 and tables are hard to come by in the summer months. Great food, good service, and an enjoyable ambiance.

The food is good, no doubt. However, they close early a LOT. I live quite a ways away right now so to drive an hour for them to close early is very frustrating. Can the owners just change the hours?!

I've been here a few time to get coffee to go, but a few weeks ago I decided to stop in and stay with some friends. If you venture off to the left once you enter this is soooo much seating space. It is seat yourself but service was quick and semi gloss ordering from your table from a QR code. it was super vibey with all the plants and decor. The food came out quick and everything tasted wonderful!! Def a place I would come back to.

We had been meaning to visit this location for years after seeing the stunning latte art all over social media. Recently, we noticed Shakshuka was on the menu, so we made the trek to St. Paul. The coffee was well worth the drive! The art was beautiful and the flavors matched! The croissant was flaky and the cucumber with arugula created a fresh pairing. The Shakshuka was rich and the bread was fresh and served warm. The crepe was a classic combination to round out our Saturday brunch. The overall meal was delicious and we will be returning. Ultimately, we provided a 4 star rating due to the lack of parking and difficulty using the QR codes at the table (the three we tried were illegible, and you needed the QR code associated with the table you chose in order to avoid ordering at the counter).

Exploring St. Paul and glad I stopped in! Obviously their latte art is adorable and oh so instagramable. But also the service was so quick and friendly! Really enjoyed grabbing the rainbow matcha latte and catching up on some reading. Will recommend! Pro tip: pick a cozy seat away from the door in the winter. Back corner has some amazing natural light coming in

My drink was good! My danish was okay, I went around noon so it wasn't super fresh. They were friendly. I didn't realize how popular it was, it was packed! My drink still came out super fast, though. I'd go back but maybe not on a weekend.

This was my second time visiting Astoria, they have now extended their location and it has lots of space! They also have a large breakfast/lunch menu, which plenty of delicious options. I ordered the belle breakfast sandwich, I thought it was okay, wasn't a fan of the tomato or sweet pepper paste/sauce they add. next time I'll order something different. My cousin had the wise guy sandwich and he says it's his favorite, he always goes for the same thing when he visits. Overall ambience was laid back, the place was packed but still had space to sit down to eat. Service was quick. Parking isn't the easiest, plan to walk 2 blocks or more.

Love the vibe, the food was great. I ordered the Nutella banana crepe and it was delicious. So much so I ended up going back the next day and getting two more . Service was prompt, it wasn't busy when I went however using table numbers seems to work and be efficient for them. Definitely recommend giving them a shot. And while your at get yourself a shot of expresó

The prettiest, most delectable lattes you'll ever have! Order off the secret menu for this artisan creations! I went with a group of close girlfriends and we savored every sip of our beautiful, next level lattes! We also ordered crepes and we all enjoyed all of ours, both savory and sweet ones (you can't go wrong). It was a wonderful tea party-esque time but with exquisite lattes and crepes!

When a coffee shop has a "secret menu" you know it's going to be good! What a great start to the weekend with the best tasting and visually appealing coffee and smoothie drinks! The bar is now set super high Street parking is somewhat easy and the shop itself has such colorful walls and is so aesthetically pleasing! The only con is that because the coffee is so good as well as the food, there is not always enoug seating inside so get there early to get a spot! Dragon Cloud ~ Blended Dragon Fruit, pineapple, coconut & cotton candy Campfire Latte ~ Espresso, caramel, dark chocolate, marshmallow, graham cracker crumbs Rainbow Matcha ~ Matcha, peppermint, rainbow color

The food, coffee and service was great! The only reason I am giving a 4/5 is because they were out of smoothie bowls when I visited last. I highly recommend trying the 24k latte and rainbow latte.

Cafe Astoria is one of my favorite cafes in St. Paul. Their Lattes are always great and very aesthetic. Also, for the crepes, you can update them for a Gluten Free version which, in the savory ones, has been made out of egg. It tends to get very busy on the weekends, so I recommend arriving early.

So many big windows which is just lovely on a sunny day. Sat in the little nook and enjoyed a $3 scone and some lattes. Tall ceilings allow comfortable space to talk without it becoming too loud. Lots of plants means lots of life. We were served by sweet staff and coffee was delivered quickly. If you're looking for a cozy and bright environment to spend some time in, this is a great space to visit.

Fun and unique breakfast spot! This was our first time visiting and we were surprised by the variety of the menu. This place has a mix of American breakfast options and Filipino dishes. Everything looked delicious it was so hard to choose! The lemon pancakes were delicious and very filling - I could only eat half. The French toast was tasty and was served with cinnamon butter and bananas. The coffee selection was amazing and included various milk alternatives. I had one of the best dirty matcha (with oat milk) lattes I've had in the twin cities. We will definitely come back to try the longanisa bowl! This location has a coffee bar and also some regular restaurant seating. Tables have individual QR codes so you can skip the line, seat yourself, and order. This makes eating with friends easy since pay can be split up in order. The parking is a little tricky since it is mostly street parking, but we found it on the next block over. When we went there were a lot of outdoor seating options between the other restaurant.

This is such a cute little gem. I initially came here because a coworker told me she heard good reviews and the coffee art looked beautiful. Parking is a bit disastrous in the area but if you try you can find some. I ordered the Sunday candy latte and my bf got the campfire latte. They both were so cute when they arrived to the table. And they come in a larger size cup so definitely worth the money. I really liked the balance of raspberry flavor in the Sunday candy latte. The staff was super friendly also! I will definitely be returning to try to food and more drinks off the menu. The food smelled and looked delicious!

This was a good overall experience. A different way to order and pay for food, though. Not for technologically impaired people ( you order and pay from your table QR code in advance). I enjoyed the outdoor seating but am concerned about crowding in the winter as they were very busy. The food and coffee were very good. They were delivered in a timely fashion. It did seem longer from a first time perspective as we were not 100% sure our order went through. The staff was friendly and efficient. It is a really cool place to try in warmer weather and sit outside. Our experience was great all around. I definitely would recommend this cafe and would return myself.

The hot chai latte is great, really creamy and a good blend of sweet and spice. The lemon pancakes were amazing. The custard they use is delicious and the fruit makes it perfect. The croissant orange pastry is wonderful too. The cafe gets really crowded so be prepared to wait especially if you have a large group.
