This cafeteria is classy. The choices of soups, salads, desserts are all great tasting and good looking. They build a sandwich/wrap to your specific choices with all fresh, creative, tasty ingrediants. Try to time your meal to an off hour time, I was there at 4 p.m. and found a table and could linger over making my food choices. By... More

My daughter who lives in MN LOVES this place; she even had their cakes at her wedding, so we stopped by for desserts. I tried a bite of her Tres Leches cake that was OH SO GOOD that I'd wished I'd ordered it. I ordered the German Chocolate cake since I'm a chocaholic and it was divine. My husband's Turtle... More

The Cafe Latte is a venerable St. Paul institution that my wife and I first started dining at in the early 1980's. Be forewarned about long lines and then hunting for a table - but a visit on a Saturday afternoon in May reminded us that it is well worth it. Between us we had a bowl of the creamy... More

This cafeteria style cafe has great food, but even more delicious desserts. I don't get here often but have never been disappointed in anything I have eaten here. Way above average food which is reasonably priced.

We go here often and are never disappointed- from the display of different cakes, tarts, tortes, cupcakes, cheesecakes, cookies and flourless cakes at the front door, walking through and picking a delicious salad, sandwich, soup, spread, pizza and beverage is always a delightful experience. You are offered a sample of soup or salad if it's a tough decision and you... More

The one thing that's awkward to get here is a cafe latte. It's a cafeteria-style food service of scrumptious pastries (strategically located first), salads, soups and sandwiches. The espresso machine is on the back wall and when you ask for one, you get a paper with something written on it, then you pay for that along with whatever else you... More

We've been going to Cafe Latte for years and have never regretted it! It's a stand-by when we want a fast but nutritious meal at fair prices. At least once a week I don't feel like cooking so we make our way there to enjoy a variety of salads, sandwiches and soups. The desserts are works of art and are... More

Cafe Latte has been a stalwart member of the St. Paul community. I came here in the '80's! I enjoy coming here for a casual lunch with friends or for pizza and drinks in the back room. The food is consistently good and I like that there are so many choices on the buffet. It's not cheap, but it's not... More

My friends and I stopped in for dessert. They had several kinds of cheesecakes, cakes and other desserts. Too many to choose from! I had a mango raspberry cheesecake slice. It was heavenly. :)
