Chè & Café

Chè & Café is a coffee shop on Nicollet Avenue in Minneapolis, Minnesota, at 2743 Nicollet Ave, Minneapolis, MN 55408. Its name points to chè, and customer reviews describe a menu that brings together coffee, chè, creative drinks, and croffles. Visitors mention returning for the welcoming service and distinctive beverage choices, while the shop’s 4.3-star rating across 58 reviews offers a useful snapshot of local customer feedback. Whether you are exploring the neighborhood or looking for something beyond a standard coffee order, Chè & Café is a place to consider for a drink and a sweet treat.

The menu has a range of memorable choices mentioned by customers. The mango sticky rice drink is a favorite in one review, alongside coffee, chè, and croffles. Other visitors describe trying banana pudding matcha, crème brûlée croffee, black sesame milk tea with cheese foam, coconut milk tea with ube ice cream, and an avocado drink called Avocado Dream. Those examples suggest a menu with different textures and flavors, from creamy and refreshing milk tea to coffee-based treats and fruit-forward drinks. The reviews also highlight the black sesame milk tea as both refreshing and creamy. Since customer experiences can vary and the menu may change, check with the shop for current offerings and ingredients if you have a particular drink in mind.

Guests repeatedly describe the staff as kind, friendly, and welcoming, and one customer says the service made a strong impression across several visits. A reviewer also found ordering at the kiosk quick and easy. The space is described as small, and it can fill up quickly; during a busy visit, a customer reported a wait for drinks and chose to take the order to go. That makes Chè & Café a good fit for people who enjoy trying distinctive drinks, stopping in for a dessert-inspired coffee, or picking up a treat to enjoy elsewhere. If you are visiting with a group or hoping to sit inside, be prepared for limited space, especially when it is busy.

Chè & Café is open from 11:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Monday and Wednesday through Sunday, and closed on Tuesday, according to the listed hours. Its Nicollet Avenue location gives Minneapolis visitors a specific destination for coffee, chè, milk tea, and croffles in one compact café. Reviews point to generous variety, consistent visits for returning customers, and personable service, while also setting realistic expectations about a smaller dining area and possible waits. For a first visit, choose a drink that catches your interest—perhaps mango sticky rice, black sesame milk tea, or a croffee—and allow extra time if the shop is busy. Check the current hours and menu before heading over, particularly on Tuesday when it is listed as closed.
