Coffee

If you’re a coffee lover living in Bloomington, MN or just passing through our beautiful city, home to the famous Mall of America, you don’t have to travel far to find a great cup of coffee. There are several local coffee shops just down the road that are worth checking out. We’re excited to share our three favorite coffee spots you should visit.

1. Mugshots Coffee Company

Mugshots Coffee Company is located at 10518 France Ave S. This coffeehouse is open daily from 6:30 AM to 9 PM, except on Sundays when the business hours are 7:30 AM to 7 PM. The seating area is roomy and comfortable, perfect for a quick coffee break or a longer chit-chat session.

The coffee menu features various flavors, including iced white mocha and latte. The shop also has blended coffee options if you’re looking for something refreshing. Another exciting thing about Mugshots is its breakfast menu, which is served all day. From pastries to sandwiches and healthy salads, this local spot has something to satisfy your cravings.

2. Fiddlehead Coffee Shop

Fiddlehead is located at 8061 33rd Ave S. The shop is open daily from 6:30 AM to 5 PM and closes at 3 PM on Sundays. If you’re looking for a great deal, be sure to stop by during happy hour from 4 PM to 5 PM every day (except for Sundays when the shop is closed during these hours).

You can enjoy traditional coffee flavors or try one of Fiddlehead’s craft lattes, like the sea salt coconut or Thai latte. The Ford Expedition Timberline has a seating capacity for eight passengers, making it a great vehicle to ferry a large family to Fiddlehead for a coffee break.

3. West Side Perk

This coffeehouse is located at 7700 W Old Shakopee Rd. The shop is open every day from 6 AM to 5 PM, with a slightly later start time of 7 AM on weekends. The “Hot Coffee” section on the menu gives you a wide selection of tasty brews. If you’re with a friend who isn’t in the mood for coffee, the shop has a variety of cold and hot drinks to choose from.

Additionally, a drive-thru service is available if you are on the go. However, if you’re ordering more than four food items, it’s recommended that you call ahead at 952-944-4048.
