Our Story

Bringing the charm of a Parisian morning to Prior Lake

We started LoadTest Cold Brew 0 with a simple belief: coffee shouldn't just be a quick caffeine fix, but a moment of slow, exquisite pleasure. Our journey began in our Prior Lake kitchen, experimenting with an 18-hour cold brew process that extracts the naturally sweet, low-acid notes of ethically sourced beans.

Every morning, we open our doors to the smell of fresh butter croissants and freshly ground espresso. We partner with local Minnesota roasters to bring you unique single-origins, served in a warm, Parisian-boutique atmosphere that feels like a quiet escape from the everyday rush.
