Loyaltea's Cafè | Our Story

Built on loyalty, brewed with care

Loyaltea's is a blend of two ideas that are really one: make something with genuine care, open your door to everyone, and loyalty follows naturally.

East Franklin Avenue

Loyaltea's put down roots on one of South Minneapolis's most culturally vibrant corridors — where longtime residents, newcomers, students, and artists share the same few blocks. This neighborhood needed a place that actually belongs to it.

Not a concept, a commitment

This café came from a real belief that a community deserves somewhere to slow down and feel genuinely seen. Every detail — from the tea-forward menu to openly inclusive values — reflects that investment.

The tea at the center

In a city full of coffee-first cafés, Loyaltea's made a deliberate choice: tea at the center, thoughtfully prepared, worth lingering over. It's a quiet act of differentiation that says everything about what this place is.

Campus, community, and the table between

Steps from Augsburg University, Loyaltea's became a bridge — where students, neighbors, and families cross paths over a quiet hour and a good cup. A first visit feels like a discovery; a second feels like home.
