I have a new favorite: Tiger's Blood. The people at Babb's make you feel welcome. The ambiance is comfortable and homey. Highly Recommend. I'm hosting my pre-wedding shower here in a few weeks. UPDATE: Our party was an absolute success thanks to the owners of Babb's and their wonderful employees. We ordered lemon bars and their Aunt Coleens famous cookies! For drinks, we purchased a special arnold palmer mix (lemonade and sweet tea). It was delicious! The space is perfect for an intimate party such as a pre-wedding party. A huge thanks to the wonderful staff!

Delicious latte! I love that they have several sugar free flavor options. Fast and friendly service. Chill vibe with a good amount of indoor seating and nice little table for outdoor seating. Great stop for coffee if you are downtown.

This was the first place I visited on my visit to Fargo, as I sought out a bit of a calm, quiet space to get a drink, connect to wifi, find my bearings, and maybe get some tips for the area. All three needs were met. The chai I ordered was expertly prepared my very kind and helpful staff, who not only made me feel welcome and valued with their attitude but also provided me with a few tips for enjoying the city. The space had a good energy, WiFi was reliable, and the seating was cute and cozy. I would definitely stop back by here for a drink if I find myself in town again. 💙☕🍵

The location and atmosphere is perfect. They have a large menu with options for everyone. The coffee was delicious and so was my husband's baked goods. Would go back.

Five stars no questions asked. The staff is so nice, carrying and fun. We had a lovely chat with them. The price is fair and the coffee is good. Everything as expected. Look up when entering the building the big giant cross beam made out of cast irons. It is how the front of the building is supported permitting those beautiful tall glass opening. This is typical modern built from the 1800s. This was one of the first building in Fargo. The train delivered the raw materials and they build that strip right away. The decorations inside is no e showing off some of the original features of the building. Owner love to talk about his building and the history of the area. Really love spot to have a coffee.

A historic FM staple, Babb's features a vibrant Seattle theme in it's comfortable layout and furniture, the light-capturing murals, and decorative memorabilia. This trendy cafe also features friendly staff managed by the business owner, delicious baked goods, soups, and entrees. And who can forget the coffee? Dancing goats is their signature brew and they do pour-over, French press, cappuccino, espresso, lattes, breves, a delicious coffee shake, and a plethora of flavored syrups to enhance your preferred quaff.

What an amazing find!!! Fargo should be famous for Babbs. The staff are so kind, helpful, and skilled at what they do. Remarkably friendly. We came in about 11 with a lot of people and we had some dietary questions and didn’t have our stuff together 😅. The staff were still super friendly and helpful. Babbs also has the goods on the food and drinks!! It’s a great place to hang out and eat, drink coffee, etc. super cozy, tons of things to explore, games, super comfortable seating.

The atmosphere brings you in and the coffee keeps you coming back. Try the latte of the day. They haven’t steered me wrong yet. I still have dreams of the lucky charms latte from st Patrick’s day a few years ago. This is the coffee spot to read, work, and take in the relaxing vibes.

The staff are all very down to earth and laid back, kind people. The space is very aesthetically pleasing and comforting to be in. The coffee is absolutely amazing! A good spot for an Instagram photo or to meet up with a friend, or to study. As this is a coffeehouse, I wouldn’t recommend trying to order a whole meal from here- go to any other food spot available (the breakfast sandwich is very good though)
