Our Story
A little corner of Paris on the shores of Prior Lake
We started LoadTest Cold Brew 19 with a simple obsession: to bring the meticulous, slow-paced charm of a Parisian boutique café to our Minnesota neighborhood. Our signature cold brew is steeped patiently for nineteen hours, extracting a smooth, velvety profile that completely redefines what iced coffee can be.
Step inside and you'll find a space designed for lingering. From the rich aroma of locally roasted espresso to the daily delivery of golden, shatteringly crisp croissants, we believe the morning ritual shouldn't be rushed. It's a daily celebration of craft, community, and exceptional coffee.

"The nineteen-hour cold brew is incredibly smooth—no bitterness at all. Paired with an almond croissant, it honestly feels like a quick trip to Paris every Saturday morning."
"A true espresso bar. They understand brew ratios and temperature. It's rare to find this level of coffee craft outside of a major metro area."
"The atmosphere is so peaceful, and the lavender honey latte is a dream. My absolute favorite spot to write and watch the morning light."
