Coffee and kicks on the menu at Ninth Street

The metro has several unique coffee shop concepts. In Apple Valley, there’s Curiouser Coffee which is part coffee shop, part conservatory. In Plymouth, the Brew Park is a coffee shop and dog park combo. And in Minneapolis, Ninth Street blends soccer and coffee. There are pickup games nightly, but it’s also used for personal training groups and for kids, a free open play option every Tuesday and Friday from 10 a.m. to noon. Ninth Street Soccer and Coffee is located at 801 SE 9th St. in the Marcy Holmes neighborhood of Minneapolis. It’s open seven days a week from 8 a.m. to midnight.
