Visiting from Tampa, Florida. A colleague said this was the best coffee in town. I asked if they could make my favorite cuban cafe con leche, and it was perfectly made. The scrambled egg and goat cheese turnover was fabulous. I took a cherry pastry to go with another cup of cafe con leche. Well done!!

It's such an aesthetic coffee shop!This coffee shop is such a great place to come and get some light reading done, a coffee date with friends, or just by yourself.The decor I would say is eclectic with a little whimsy. Very aesthetic, cozy, and inviting.I got a mocha frap, and it was great, just a little too sweet for my taste. My server was really nice, too. I stayed there for a good while sipping on my drink and reading a book by the window.They have hot beverages, Fraps and iced as well as non coffee ones. They also sell pastries and I think cold sandwiches.

I was there a lot and had great lattes, mocha, coffee was excellent every time. I miss it. I want to go again some day.Kid-friendliness: It is ideal for children. Mainly college people go there and young adults. Children should be well behaved and quiet. Students go for quietness.

I’ve been coming here for the past 7 years. It really is a gem. It’s always a joy to see Dawn and Lela, but all of the staff are knowledgeable and kind. I find the pricing to be just right and they have a wide arrange of sweet treats to enjoy with your coffee. It’s always a good day when I start my day here!Dietary restrictions: They have gluten free, keto, vegetarian, and vegan treats. Probably more, but those are the ones I’ve tried recently.Kid-friendliness: They have board games and sweet drinks for the kids that don’t contain any caffeine.Wheelchair accessibility: The back entrance is wheelchair accessible and all of the tables have chairs that can be moved for easy access.

Great location right on Main Street. So close to other cool places and restaurants.Plenty of parking. Place has both front and back entrance. Wheelchair accessible with the back entrance only.Love the tea selection and fall menu.Didn’t like the decor this time around.Love the chairs and seating options.Glad the place is still around every time I am in town.

Best cup of coffee in Cedar Falls. Service is always friendly and the atmosphere is
This is a tried and true spot for a coffee and hanging out or getting work done in the Cedar Valley.Personally, I don't particularly like many of their coffees and really don't like their cold brew, but I suppose you can't please everyone, and I just happen to be "that guy" this time around. I don't come here for the best cup of coffee in the area, so it's no big deal.The staff is fine, for all intents and purposes. Some are more gregarious and friendly, some are more checked out or just seem to be going through the motions - I think that's probably par for the course with any coffee spot, though, so again no big deal really.However, I would say that if this were not the ONLY place of its kind in the area, a spot with REALLY consistently friendly staff across the board would absolutely potentially pull business away because one of the main reasons someone makes a connection to a "place" is the staff serving the product. I think that is something that could be improved upon, but again no real complaints.

This is one of the cutest coffee shops I’ve ever been to and the coffee and food are just as good! I explore new coffee shops all over as I travel for work and this one just hit the spot. I ordered the Vietnamese iced coffee “shakerato” which is there take on the Vietnamese coffee. It was the perfect cross between its namesake drink and a shaken espresso drink from a certain chain coffee place. I also got an earl grey blueberry muffin which happened to be vegan. The flavors were on point, though there was a spice to it that I might expect more from chai—it was delicious either way. The atmosphere was retro and cozy! I wish I had the chance to sit awhile, but next time I definitely will. Definitely recommend this to any coffee connoisseurs.Dietary restrictions: Vegan and gluten free items available
