I have to update this review now. They close early (I think by 4 on weekends and 5 on weekdays?). Anyways, went in today to get a breakfast sandwich at 11:02 am today, and there kitchen was already closed because they close at noon today! Done trying to give this local business money. I know many people in the neighborhood have asked them to be open later... The response was closing even earlier! I understand being a small, local business... I own one as well... and the biggest thing Ive learned about being a small local business is to be open when people want you to be! -------- Original review: Nice staff, good atmosphere and nice selection of coffee & food. Just wish they were open later.

This is my favorite coffee shop in downtown Saint Paul for a few reasons: - Its really big, It has two levels (bathroom on each), a patio (a couple tables outside for nice weather), and a couple comfy couches. - Lunch, Not your standard, bagels and pastries place per say. They serve actual meals, which is nice when you are looking for a quick bite for lunch or a light dinner. - Good vibes, This is the best part- the clientele is eclectic. During my last visit I saw a variant of age ranges from kids to seniors. All walks of life. Highly recommend for Beware: It can get busy and loud so be prepared to use your headphones.

The aesthetic, coffee, and wi-fi connection are all absolutely impeccable. With a Highland/Celtic allure, the brick walls and parquet floors create a much more inviting and exotic coffee-going experience. The staff are great at all they do. The wi-fi is definitely worth paying the extra 10% for coffee as I do a great amount of work online and derive much media from it, so it is a welcome change that, at Claddagh Coffee, I am able to download more in one hour than I ever could at any Dunn Bros in one week. And it is three blocks closer to my home.

Exactly what a neighborhood coffee shop should be. Great Irish theme with a very interesting menu. I enjoyed a "St. Paddy" mid-day on a Monday and was able to find a window seat and move about comfortably. The baked goods were tasty. I didnt check out the basement "grotto." The window seats get pretty toasty with afternoon sunlight blasting in. Between the sun and coffee I started sweating after 15 minutes :-) Like this spot. Ill be back during my Capitol visits.

Buzzing cafe with friendly staff and seating up/downstairs. Claddagh uses and sells Dogwood Coffee ( a local roaster) The latte was perfect. The chocolate, dried cherry scone was as good as my Moms...shhh, dont tell her! The scone was served with raspberry preserve and clotted cream. I will be back to enjoy the food, drink, and atmosphere again! Wonderful experience!

Its a good café near a bus stop. An Irish pub theme for no apparent reason. It doesnt serve alcohol. There is an extensive menu. At a quick glance, the food offered is a bit different than the usual café fare. Has a real tin ceiling. Unfortunately, the bathroom is downstairs. This presents a problem for folks who have trouble negotiating stairs.

One of the best lattes Ive had -- the black and tan (cinnamon, honey, espresso) was excellent. The cinnamon chocolate scone was also really good. Just enough cinnamon and chocolate junks to make it flavorful without being too sweet. Very cozy, all brick interior with a sort of tucked-away feel, this was definitely an excellent stop.

Comfy, welcoming place with good coffee, great homemade breakfasts, lunches and snacks, a laid-back atmosphere and an eclectic clientele. Try their Irish oats (oatmeal) on a cold morning. And their panini sandwiches. My only complaint is that they dont stay open evenings. Other than that, theyre perfect.

A warm, inviting coffee house with lovely places to chat with friends, read by yourself or catch some sun. Signature drinks and food (e.g. The Claddagh Espresso drink and Irish Crumb Cake) make this a signature coffee house. And if you love Dogwood and pour over coffee, Claddagh has you covered.

Love the atmosphere...wish they would bring you your drink if they tell you they are out of something and need to make it. Wouldnt mind if I was by myself, but to wait fifteen minutes with a friend standing there wasnt the greatest.

Best coffee in the twin cities, maybe even Minnesota, local coffee, even local milk, along with homemade everything... So unique, unlike any other shop I have been too, and Im kinda a coffe snob... Tea is also amazing...

Very annoyed. Arrived at 4:25pm and the shop was already closed, despite the closing time being listed as 5pm, the open sign still lit and two employees working inside. Just lost a potential customer.

REALLY like this place. Fantastic Atmosphere and the drinks are all tasty and just different enough to be thematic, but individually unique. The bit of food that we ordered was delicious as well.

Went here on a whim because my normal coffee shop was too crowded. Great place and plan on coming back! They host events in the basement space. The Reuben and grilled cheese were both fantastic!

Best coffee barista ever, and whats cool about it is the could draw anything on your coffee. My favorite is the St. Paddys Espresso, dark chocolate, coconut cream, steamed milk delicious

I ordered a black coffee and it tasted like moldy blueberries. How did they even do that? It was genuinely disgusting. Cool place, though, and it was probably only that one day.

Dogwood coffee served hot and delicious! Large space downstairs is a good addition to the seating on main level. They also serve food, but I did not partake.

Best coffee Ive ever had, bought some to take home. Warm scone with lemon curd and cream was amazing too. Sandwiches looked good, will be back to try them.

Good coffee and live music. The coffee has a nice unique taste, a little like blueberries. They support the local tea shop.

Great food and coffee. Interior is mostly dark and woody, a perfect place to escape to in solitude or to impress a friend.

Good coffee its Dogwood which has a borderline harsh taste. Some love it but others dont. Great spot though.
