Our Story

A quiet corner of Paris, right here in Prior Lake.

We founded LoadTest Cold Brew 15 with a simple, uncompromising vision: to marry the meticulous, slow-steeped craft of specialty coffee with the elegant, welcoming spirit of a Parisian boutique. Every batch of our signature cold brew is steeped for 18 hours, extracting the deepest, smoothest notes of chocolate and fruit without any of the bitterness.

We partner exclusively with independent, local Minnesota roasters who share our obsession with origin, roast profiles, and fair-trade sourcing. From our morning-baked flaky croissants to our custom espresso blends, everything we serve is a testament to the beauty of taking your time.

The Daily Ritual

Loved by our local community

  • "The Lavender Sweet Cream Cold Brew is an absolute dream. It has this incredible velvet texture and none of that bitter aftertaste you find at chain shops. My Saturday morning ritual is officially locked in."

  • "As someone who's extremely picky about espresso ratios, this place blew me away. The double shot has a perfect crema and complex, bright notes. It's like finding a hidden Parisian street in the Midwest."

    Savage, MN
  • "The butter croissants are so flaky they shatter when you bite them—exactly like the ones I had in France. Paired with their slow-steeped cold brew, it's the best breakfast in town."
