Urban Stampede - Grand Forks

Such a cute place! We loved the decor and the coffee was delish!

Delicious doughnuts and bagels, and fantastic coffee. Great atmosphere to just chill or study.

Excellent service. Outdoor seating available. Relaxed atmosphere with artistic touches inside 19th century building. WIFI available.

I don’t really write reviews but I’m so bothered by the way I was treated here earlier today. I was looking forward to visiting urban stampede for the second time after visiting and having a great experience a few months ago. I was also excited to bring my family as we travel to Grand Forks from Canada often and are coffee lovers. We ordered 3 drinks 2 cold brews and a hot americano. I paid and we waited for our drinks. A few minutes later, the barista informed us that they were out of cold brew so we chose iced americanos instead and I asked to have the $2 difference for each drink to be refunded. We also noticed they charged us for 4 drinks instead of 3 so we asked her to remove one. I was then charged a second time for 4 drinks but didn’t realize it until a second barista was handing us the 4th drink. I went back to the till and explained they charged us again for an extra drink to which the barista replied that we could just keep the extra drink and I explained that we didn’t need the 4th drink we wanted a refund as it was their mistake. In every interaction were calm, polite and patient and the barista spoke to us passive aggressively making us seem like the issues that happened were our fault. After settling the refunds, she asked us if we wanted the receipt and pretty much threw it down on the counter and immediately turned her back to us and walked away. In that moment, I wish I could have taken back my generous tip for them that I continued to leave each time they adjusted the transaction. We wanted to sit awhile and enjoy our coffee but felt so uncomfortable by the baristas attitude that we had to leave. I will never come back nor will I ever recommend this coffee shop in the future. Their coffee is good but could never be worth the treatment we received.

PERFECT! The iced chai is amazing! The inside was perfectly decorated! The drinks aren’t too sweet but still have the right amount of sugar. The cashier was very kind and explained the drinks to us, and had our drinks out very quick!
