This is a wonderful coffee house! The food is top notch, a they have many coffee options to choose from. The atmosphere is relaxed, with multiple seating options.

I will remove my one star once the staff are farther trained for their Job. Sometimes I need to buy syrup, or a syrup pump, but I feel bad because most of the time the front counter person looks helpless like they don’t know what to do. Later, they tell me they don’t sell either of the products. I have bought both before here, at this location.
- you need to do better management

Great place to hang out or do work. Coffee & sandwich were pretty good. The iced latte tasted a bit burnt & was super light on ice- I assume the espresso was poured directly onto the ice which can create that burnt taste. The items in the pastry case looked so good but I didn’t have any room to try any. Overall, I would go back!

The coffee has a very strong flavor, too strong for me. Even with the iced coffee, the sweetness doesn’t cut through. Most recent order was the iced mocha fudge. I’m not sure how I was supposed to drink a giant glop of fudge at the bottom. Too thick to mix into the drink.

Tough to say on the atmosphere when you just use the drivethrough but the service was fast and very friendly. The cold brew with foam was one of the best I've had and kept me hopped up on caffeine for the 3 hour drive home. I will definitely be back!!
Please open a location in the Waterloo cedar falls area and I'll be a regular!

Morning All,

I don't usually take the time to write reviews but this is unfortunately such a repeated circumstance, I felt it was time to address it. I love Smokey Row and have been a customer for years. During covid, I started utilizing the drive through on an almost daily basis. I have never been to a coffee shop where my order is messed up more times than this drive through. Today, yet ANOTHER entirely incorrect drink was made via the drive through. It's almost hard to believe how routine mistakes are made in that drive through - which leads me to think is it the baristas, the speaker system, etc? I can't figure it out but it's too routine to not be addressed at this point.

The last 3 times I’ve tried to come here, their kitchen has been closed. Last time I was here 2 hours before closing and today I was here an hour before closing.
