A New Bakery Is Bringing Bagels, Challah, and Sourdough to Grand Avenue | Eater Twin Cities
"I've learned that Chef Justin Sutherland and his father, Kerry, have teamed up with the nonprofit Rondo Community Land Trust to reopen Golden Thyme Coffee and Cafe as an all-day restaurant; RCLT purchased Golden Thyme last year and has used the space as an incubator for Black and community-owned businesses. Under Sutherland's menu direction the cafe plans to offer breakfast and coffee with a smoothie and juice bar in the earlier hours, then sit-down lunch and dinner service; the team is renovating to add a full bar, about 50 seats inside and roughly 20–25 on the patio, and the menu will likely feature soul food classics and American fare." - Justine Jones
Stoked that they're open again. This place is really pleasant, friendly staff, airy environs, plenty of outlets, comfortable seating for chatting, and when they open the french doors it's like a proper European sidewalk café. Every neighborhood needs a coffeeshop like this! Congrats, y'all.

This cozy neighborhood gem has a delicious chai latte with oat milk (hot or cold). It’s great to have a beautifully renovated space that offers flaky, buttery danishes and great vibes. I love to walk there from my office in Rondo!

I've been here twice so far, super nice and chill staff and decent coffee, plus the location is great. I usually don't expect much from most coffee shop pastries, but the ones here were VERY good and reasonably priced. The inside is a little hollow but suitable with nice seating. It seems like they might be able to have a patio setup in the front which would really elevate the place if so. In any case, definitely going to add this to our go-to coffee spots around the neighborhood!

Incredibly lovely staff, great recommendations, and the server brought everything right to my table.
It's also a great place for remote workers - outlets all around the store, plenty of seating, and very good grab and go items. All reasonably priced! Excited to see a new workspace like this pop up in this area.
When I went on a weekday morning, street parking was so open that I parked practically at the door.

Been on my coffee list for an year. Loved the place once I walked in. Good latte for a good price. Croissants look great. Sit down area is one of the best I’ve seen. Easy parking.

Our server was fantastic! All of our questions were answered. The food was delicious! We went for my daughter in law’s Birthday and they did not disappoint! We are already planning to return for the dinner experience.

I've been getting coffee from Golden thyme for a few months now. I AM VERY VERY PICKY WITH HOW MY COFFEE DRINKS ARE MADE!!! BUT TODAYYYYY, I must say that Miss Tae!!! Did an exceptional job on my praline/oatmilk macchiato, with lavender! I told her I wanted a more stronger coffee flavor to come through the oatmeal and she did not disappoint!!!!!! It's just how I like it the perfect amount of creaminess the coffee ratio!! And not too sweet! She's always showed me kindness and grace even with my difficult orders and she always exudes professionalism!!!

I'm very excited to visit the new location! I expect good things as the last place had a vibrant but peaceful vibe with great artwork. It was a great place to meet people or work.
