[0:00] (upbeat music)
[0:01] - Well, we're a roaster with
three coffee bar locations.
[0:04] Our roastery headquarters is in St. Paul.
[0:07] We first opened in 2014,
[0:09] and then in 2019 we moved
over to our current location
[0:13] where we added a coffee bar,
[0:15] and then we added another
coffee bar in 2019
[0:17] in the North Loop
neighborhood of Minneapolis.
[0:20] - We opened here the
very last week of August,
[0:23] and it's been really great so far.
[0:26] We've been meeting a lot of our neighbors.
[0:28] It's been really special for us
[0:30] to start making those
connections with our neighbors,
[0:33] learning their dogs' names
as they visit on the patio,
[0:36] or you know,
[0:38] finding out the favorite latte
flavors here in Bloomington.
[0:42] Yeah, we've got a really
great team of baristas,
[0:44] who are really excited to be here.
[0:47] - [Micah] Very excited
that it's in this part
[0:49] of the city of Bloomington.
[0:51] It's very close to the airport,
[0:52] and very close to the Mall of America.
[0:54] From the beginning, when
we initially started
[0:56] to make the connections with
the people from the city,
[0:59] everybody was very encouraging
and excited about us,
[1:02] and moving in, and the whole kind
[1:04] of process was very easy
and straightforward.
[1:08] - [Kristina] It starts
really with our mission.
[1:10] We aim to cultivate deeper
connections between people
[1:12] by sharing our love of delicious coffee.
[1:15] So for us, that means sourcing
our coffees very mindfully.
[1:19] At the coffee bars,
[1:20] it comes into how we
interact with our guests,
[1:24] how we involve with each
community in each neighborhood
[1:28] where we're located,
[1:29] and we hope to just keep providing a space
[1:32] for the neighborhood,
for everyone who lives
[1:35] and works in this space
to sit down together,
[1:39] connect, and sip some delicious
drinks while doing so.
[1:44] We have got a menu
[1:46] that I think has something for everyone.
[1:48] So we've got all the classic coffees,
[1:50] and as we've grown,
[1:53] our seasonal specialties
have become a bigger part
[1:56] of our menu as well.
[1:57] We've been really loving
our new breakfast wrap.
[2:00] And then very importantly, pastry is fresh
[2:03] from Vikings and Goddesses,
[2:05] and from Sift Gluten Free as well.
[2:08] We also keep our shelves stocked
[2:11] with freshly roasted coffee
[2:14] from our roastery on the
west side of St. Paul.
[2:18] The coffee bar is open from 7 to 5 daily,
[2:21] and we're really excited
[2:23] to see you all here in
Bloomington Central Station.
