How we made this list

We looked at 14 cafes in Downtown, St. Cloud MN with a Google rating of 4.0 or higher and at least 20 reviews, then Google category “Coffee shop”, ranked by weighted rating. A rating from thousands of reviews counts for more than the same rating from a handful, so a new place with a few perfect scores does not jump the queue. Ratings and hours are from public Google listings on 29 September 2026 and can change. Nobody paid to be on this list.
