Nina`s Coffee Cafe in Saint Paul

Great old building and quaint coffee shop. They serve fabulous coffee and their breakfast sandwiches are delicious! The staff is always friendly and attentive

Amazing space to read, work, or meet a client. Great coffee, great bites and great staff.

Cool space with different choices of cold and hot drinks. There is Also food, we had the banana bread and it was good! Prices are comparable to any other coffee cafe. Parking is restricted in this area as it is street parking and they have time limits

Fun little coffee shop right off Selby. The staff is very friendly and helpful. There are many tables for lounging and drinking coffee, however, it is often pretty competitive to get your own table. They have a very large menu! A little more pricey than other coffee shops, but everything is pretty high quality. Stop in if you have the chance!

Prices are a little high, but the service is out of this world. The staff is hip and friendly. Sometimes I get the food which is decent, but the coffee is amongst the best in the city. The whole Cathedral Hilll neighborhood is cool and Nina's is a cornerstone.

Great latte in a very cool historical building. Great staff, friendly and pleasant. :D The banana bread is excellent. I had a great time and will go back!

Really cool location in a historic St Paul building- tall ceilings, lots of natural light, and cool statues. Cold brew was very good, if a bit on the small side. Baristas were very friendly, and service was quick & cheerful! Didn't try the baked goods, but they looked delicious...

It's on the block where I live. Great place to meet and eat

Great food and beverages. Great atmosphere. Perfect for my knitting group.

One of the few places open on a Sunday night! I absolutely loved the oat milk latte. This place has a atmosphere as well. Plenty of couches, chairs, and tables

The staff were very friendly and offered many suggestions on what to drink. The coffee was tasty but a little over priced. Really neat space to have a coffee shop

It’s energetic and lively yet large enough where it’s relatively easy to get work done. The people are always nice. There is a cool eclectic vibe that is fun to be in.

A very cute little coffee shop. The employees were very nice, and their coffee and pastries were wonderful. I'm only not giving it a five star review because some of the decor is slightly tacky in my opinion, even though the vibe is fantastic

Great vibe. Staff was excellent. Service was even better. we asked for local recommendation and they gave great advice!

Super cute place. Nice staff. Good coffee.

Coolest (but still approachable) coffee shop in St Paul!

Love it! Best donuts in St. Paul, good coffee, great vibe. Fills to the bursting during peak hours, so do your first time early or late to get the best seat.

One of my favorite coffee shops in the cities. Amazing atmosphere (brick walls, high ceilings, big arches), tasty coffee and cappuccinos, and really good baked goods. On the pricier side, but a really nice spot. Savory scone is a favorite! If you're new to the area, ask about the history of the name "Nina."

This is a cool place. The building is a massive piece of art. Can't believe it's so close to my hood and I've never been here before. The crowd is a mixture of retires and low-key hipsters. The place has kombucha on tap lol. That's cool. Take a walk outside of the coffee shop into the basement to appreciate the amazing architecture of the building.

Coffee shop located in a neat old building. There is a nice assortment of baked goods in addition to the normal coffee and tea selection you'd expect. Service was friendly and prompt. Seating is somewhat haphazard and their isn't great/easy parking (Street only).

Great coffee and atmosphere in the really cool Blair Arcade building. I love they partner with local bakeries around the cities to have a tastey variety of pasteries and donuts. I had the carrot cake made by Isle Buns with a cup of Nina's medium roast. They also serve "fancy" coffee options too, like lattes and cappuccinos. Delish!

Great little big coffee shop. Lots if space, lots of parking, Beautiful decor and delicious coffee and treats. Music is not too loud which is good, it only gets loud because of the amount of people that come in, which can’t be helped :). it does get quite busy in here most times. But, if you like hustle and bustle, coffee and people watching, this is a great spot for a coffee date. I really enjoyed it when they used to be open late, but of course, it was slower during those times. Gotta do whats best for your business :)I have yet to get the upstairs seating but someday I will!

I simple love it!!! The atmosphere, the coffee and what smell!!! The best coffee spot of the area!!!

I had a cappuccino which was very good, but I’d come back to this cafe for the vibe: awesome place to get a coffee/pastry, pick one of the many small tables/chairs/couches, enjoy the nice atmosphere and get some work or reading done. Parking may be a challenge depending on the day or time, I ended up parking about two blocks away and walk there. Overall, nice place and recommended!

Very nice place with plenty of seating and great coffee. It gets packed but there's places where you can sit and do some work. The staff is very friendly and the decor is very interesting.

Great coffee. Friendly staff. Good outdoor seating.

Wonderful local coffee shop with plentiful parking at the end of the building (will have to take a walk through the entire building to get to Nina’s), great latte and lots of options for vegans.

I was today years old when I learned it's pronounced Nine-ahs. Now you know too!

Over 20 years serving the Cathedral Hill neighborhood of St Paul. Named after a interesting historical character, this beautiful cafe continues to make history one delicious cup at a time. So nice to walk through the parent Blair Arcade building while there.

Parking is difficult, but once inside, the building is beautiful. Nina's has a funky, library feel to it. The food is delicious, and I had an excellent cup of chair (with cinnamon and nutmeg). The music was good, too. It's like Starbucks with better food, cool atmosphere, and great drinks.

Friendly, community atmosphere, with tasty treats and lots of seating. I don't normally like coffee, but I can tolerate- and sometimes even ENJOY- their coffee-based and -tasting drinks. Believe me, that's high praise. Get here early if you want a table, though.

The artistic atmosphere adds a great ambience. Impressed with Barista's positive attitude. Plenty of chairs and couch to sit and enjoy well crafted drinks.

Great independent coffee shop, with pastries and nearby restaurants. YWCA nearby and smaller gyms, and a park with a large playground for the kids are within easy walking distance. Unless they fix it soon , the pitting on Western Avenue between Selby and John Ireland is horrible, so try to avoid that stretch if possible. Selby is where the action is anyway.

Excellent coffee shop. Good pastries as well. Great place to snuggle in during the winter

Nice comfy atmosphere! Great for not only a place to studying/work, but also a cozy place to go on a date, and hangout with family. Very versatile, nice staff and a good playlist.

An atmospheric spot Ina historic neighborhood. Can be busy on a weekend morning, but still worth to stop by. Though the restroom needs some extra care.

Nina's has great coffee and a wide variety of pastries and breakfast/lunch/snack options. It can get pretty crowded pretty quickly, so be prepared to snag a table as someone else leaves if you're planning on staying and enjoying the coffee shop vibe. There is usually a combination of people working on their computer & people conversing.

Nina's is great nice atmosphere. Eclectic and laid back. Can get very busy during the day.

The atmosphere at Nina's is amazing. From the great food to the fun seating areas to the painted book wall (and the actual bookstore downstairs), Nina's is the place to go to study, catch up with friends, or even to pen the next greatest novel.

Cozy, friendly, really good coffee and a neighborhood hang out

I've heard some great live music at this coffee shop before. Good cup of joe. Very popular place.

Great atmosphere and a lot of places to sit. Cute pictures on the wall. It's a fun little coffee shop. The Panini sandwich was very good.

Excellent coffee and fast, friendly service in a great location. Be sure to try the Gatsby with a little cream (if you do dairy)! Only improvement: dial in the furniture layout to maximize the space and allow both face-to-face convos as well as a little privacy.

An excellent coffee shop. One of the best independents. Fun atmosphere and just walking down the hall of Blair House gets me pumped up!

What a wonderful coffee shop with really good coffee! Would highly recommend.

Lovely setting and great idea to have pastries from all over the metro....but I just can't get behind the 200% price inflation of the pastries and pricey coffee. Go directly to the source for your SugaRush and Bakers Wife--it will be fresher and WAY cheaper.

Comfortable & well designed. Nina's runs smoothly and the staff is kind and friendly. The drinks are delicious and generously sized. A great place to catch up with friends or study/work. They even have dog treats at the door!

The artistic atmosphere adds a great ambience for getting creative work done. It's a nice place for conversation and the drinks are good. I'm impressed with the baristas as they provided a friendly, positive experience. Overall, a very good place for a meeting.

Good coffee. Friendly staff. Awesome coffee. Great hand-prepared meals. Really nice coffee. Did I mention they have coffee? Coffee. Coffee. COFFEE!!!!

My new favorite St. Paul coffee house. Delicious treats and a 6oz cappuccino! Now that's legit! Great atmosphere, too. Caution : It can get a little noisy if it's busy. If you're looking for a place to work quietly, visit during off-peak hours.
