Went there on Saturday morning and was far from impressed. We ordered a hot coffee mocha and a. Iced coffee. The iced coffee lacked flavor and was basically undrinkable.
The place also had a strong lavender smell which doesn’t help those who have allergies.
It also took much longer than it should have
Delightful
Today around 3.15 South Ames 4800 Mortensen Rd, branch, ordered to go latte and caramel frappe but actually we got the worst thing for both. To the owner, is it related to the paid tips?
Great place to work on your laptop.
note to ownership: if you’re going to ask us to pay $6 for an iced coffee, like one would at a fancy cafe in LA or NYC, then please make sure the quality matches the price! usually this price point is for carefully crafted brews using single origin light roast organic fair trade beans… the ones you’re using are average at best. please lower your prices or increase quality to match.
the food is still good quality for the price, i’ll happily pay $9 for a yummy sandwich.
Cute little spot that’s hidden away from major foot traffic. Would be perfect for a coffee date or a place to study.
I used to live in west Ames and loved this place. Recently went to the south location. $1.75 up charge for milk alternatives? Absolute insanity, that’s like half the price of a carton of almond milk. Also, 50 cents per flavor pump? No thanks.
The beverages take a little extra time, but the flavor is worth it. There’s plenty of seating.

Came with my girlfriend to get coffee and breakfast. We just ordered an avacado toast and black coffee. We got our coffee right away, but it took over an hour to get our food. How long does it take to toast bread and slice an avocado? I couldve gone to the grocery store and bought everything I needed, gone home, made the same meal, and eat it in less time than it took to get it from here. Whats the point of a restaurant if it takes an hour to get a piece of mediocre toast. Coffee was ok though.

A nice little cafe spot. I definitely recommend the breakfast burrito. It was so good. My tea was ok. But I can still see myself coming back.

Wow! One of the best coffee shops I’ve been at in a while. Passionate, talented baristas who crafted an amazing latte in an actual mug! Reasonable prices and a welcoming atmosphere. The avocado toast was really good and only cost $4! They have games to borrow and plenty of seating (tables, barstools, couches). Handicap accessible entrance (no automatic door) and bathrooms. They have water cups available next to the trash/dish return.
Dietary restrictions: Milk alternatives and dairy free food options
Parking: Plenty of spots around the building (dedicated parking spaces for the cafe and 3 handicap spaces right out front)

Love coming here for place to do my Bible study or writing. I highly recommend the hearty burrito (I get it as a bowl with vegan cheese and I'm Dairy free and Gluten free). It is quite filling and has a lot of protein! The atmosphere is so calming here. ? I love it.
Dietary restrictions: They offer vegan cheese and vegan sausage, but no gluten free bread. They can turn any wrap or burrito into a salad or bowl.
Wheelchair accessibility: They have disabled parking available but doors are not automated.
