If you love Macalester students.... This Dunn Bros. is a hotspot for Macalester students which means that it's often overcrowded and almost impossible to avoid hearing some pseudo-intellectual at a nearby table. That said, sitting outside is nice in the summer. You can smoke and play games. Lovely.

A throwback to the '60s-era coffeehouse, the original Dunn's beckons with freshly roasted beans and live music.. In Short
Ed Dunn admits to tinkering with computerized roasting a few years back, but soon the Dunn Bros founder realized that on-site, hands-on TLC was better than impersonal high-tech beaning. All Dunn's employees are trained to be roasters, the coffee is served up knowledgeably, and the high quality is consistent across all locations. The crowds are more strong dark-roast than a light latte-frappe-mocha one, plus there are those who grab a sandwich on their lunch breaks.

absolutely. Smokey, full, dark and lovely, a Dunn Brothers cuppa. I look forward to each visit and wish there were more locations in the twin cities (and other cities!) The quality of the products are always excellent and the diversity of the coffee is above the competition. The employees are freindly and seem very knowledgeable about the different selections. I like the idea that each location has it's own ambience.

I played there ;-). Best coffee house in Minneapolis and, I think the prices are more like the 60's than other coffee houses too.
