Best coffee and fun times! 1/16/2012

In town for a few days and we ended up hanging out in the Lyn Lake area for some doctor visits and decided to get some munchies for the road and coffee to ease the ride out of town. The people at this shop are way cool and they made us some amazing food and sent us out the door with this smooth coffee even on ice. Great good guys, and for the lady that helped us was so friendly. Wanted to put this shop on top of us traveling bus to call it to go! Rock on Muddy Water. My personal attendant is mad I'm sitting here writing a few reviews myself, but what the hay!!! more

Coffee for Delivery! amazing 2/15/2009

Muddy's is the best coffee shop in Minneapolis. They have expanded their food menu (even have great vegetarian options), they take credit cards now, and they even deliver Friday, Saturday and Sunday (9am to 3pm). This place rocks and the staff are way more friendly than they used to be... I love Muddy Waters Pros: coffee, food, delivery, ambience, open late, free wifi Cons: none! more

Malted Mocha-Cool Decor 6/12/2008

Come for the malted mocha. Stay to look around at the mosaic glass wall. Coffee Cups are cut in half and stick out of the wall. Very dog friendly. They have some vintage games to play. Free Wi-Fi. Outdoor wooden picnic table benches. Bathroom is covered in graffiti- there is not a single white spot left. I came here to watch the Oscars and sip on coffee. It?s never packed. Staff is friendly. more

Good brew, good people. 10/22/2004

Ive always liked muddy waters. The service isn't always the greatest (they have 1 person staffing the whole place) The crowd is real nice. Ive only been ""judged"" once there, which is amazing compared to any other coffee place Ive been before. I'm not a straight shot, but nor a green hippie. The people there are very accommodating. If your looking for the nest starbucks, dont like dogs or people, or dont like the ""underground"" feel to a coffee house, this isnt for you. But if you like atmosphere, good people, and good food, its the place to go. Pros: Good brew, Accommodating, Atmosphere Cons: , Dogs (sometimes) more

great coffee / crappy service 1/30/2003

Great coffee but the majority of the servers are clickier then a junior high school lunch room and psychotic to boot. Good for a coffee to go but don't hang out unless you're tragically hip. No regulars. Pros: good coffee, Bobs java close by, no waiting, ever Cons: parking, psycho servers more

mmmm, blue velvet 10/16/2002

outstanding coffee honestly having become a coffee freak about 10 years ago, i nursed myself (from the occasional small cup to four to five large cups a day) in the uptown area and felt (and still feel) muddy waters is the cream of the crop now slightly farther away but still in a coffee rich area (read: dinkytown) muddy waters i continually crave the comment about pouring instead of pumping is right on, there must be some magic there can be intimidating to the beginner but please, go through the door get a hot cuppa blue velvet the coffee-lobe of your brain will love you for it Pros: best cup, hands down Cons: parking can be tricky more

Even better now that it has walls 10/2/2002

I have been going to Muddy Waters for years, even toughing it out when it was missing walls and only had particle boards keeping the snow and cold at bay. LOVE the mosaics and the Chai, the people and the Simpsons every night. more
