    The staff were consistent on providing personal vibe, considering it was a busy push during the day. Felt welcomed and coffee cozy vibe for it being attached to Lunds.

    I arrived at about 11:45am, November 12, 2025. I was in the neighborhood so decided to purchase coffee beans. Normally, I buy coffee from Target store at East Lake Street, Minneapolis. It seems that staff and the public was informed that I was going to make a purchase at Caribou at this particular time and date as I recognized the three individuals sitting near me from a drug purchase I made from them year ago. I believe it resulted in my arrest and detainment by Minneapolis Police. I feel that I am and was followed and called out at Caribou Uptown/Lunds Byerlys Management and Corporate Offices for purposes of a drug investigation and conviction against me by Hennepin County Police / Corrections and their parole department. I have made staff aware about this issue(s) before and I have not been to this Caribou in more than six months. This is the reason why I do not patronize Caribou Coffee or any coffee restaurant because I feel followed by police officers and their private and public investigators. I have communicated this issue to Minneapolis Police previously. Grant D Olson Minneapolis, MN 55407 Cc Hennepin Medical, Cathy Harland PMO, Julie Flaschenriem, Chief Technology Officer

    Purple haired with nonstandard pronouns took my money but forgot to pour me the cup of coffee. Otherwise, standard chain coffee shop. Reliable taste.
