Wilde Roast Cafe, Minneapolis, MN, USA
The Wilde Roast Cafe is a neighborhood restaurant with an updated Victorian feel, but it’s not your typical cafe. The cafe is named after Oscar Wilde, the popular 19th Century playwright. We’ve tried to create an atmosphere that would suit Wilde’s tastes.  A comfortable place you can come alone or with friends to enjoy a latte or glass of wine by our 1900’s fireplace on a Chesterfield couch. Breakfast, lunch and dinner menus featuring an array of sandwiches, individual-sized pizzas, appetizers and other great comfort food. A big dessert menu for the evening crowd leaving the theater or going out for the night.
