“My mom and I enjoyed delicious mocktails, and great conversation in a warm, joyous atmosphere .. we highly recommend Craft’d After Dark!“

“We love our weekend trips to Kismet! They always have creative and tasty specials, as well as beautiful flower arrangements to look at while you wait. Literally the best espresso in Cedar Rapids and the friendliest people. We recommend Kismet to everybody we can!“

“Always friendly, quick service- but I never feel rushed. I appreciate that they take my phone number for the points system right at the start instead of trying to handle it at the window like other places (where it could be forgotten). I know I'm getting my points every time which I greatly appreciate.

I tried the cinnamon sugar mocha- did not disappoint- and my tried-and-true sausage, egg, and cheddar biscuit. Both were delicious as expected and definitely helped me get some fuel in my belly on the go! Highly recommend this location and their products! :)“

“Just started using local roasted coffee beans for our daily coffee at home. Dash was the first one my husband and I tried. It was absolutely amazing. Just a warning, we went from drinking one cup of coffee and being happy to needing that second cup because it just tasted so smooth.“

“Delicious quality coffee!!“

“First time visit was prompt, friendly, tasty, and priced well. Amber was attentive, the decor was charming and fresh, and the portions were enough to take back for lunch.“

“This Tea shop is fantastic. I especially like the sweet chocolate milk tea. Friendly service and an all around great atmosphere. Love It!“

“The chicken salad sandwich is the best I have ever had. Everyone who has tried it, loves it and talks about it.“

“Busy coffeehouse during the farmers market but I have to love that they have a full menu including chi latte and matcha that I haven’t seen available at any booth. A neighbor walking by asked where I got my match and luckily they had a huge coffee fly guy so I could easily point them out. It was worth the short wait on a very busy market day! Thank you for being open and serving up great hot and iced matcha with real honey.“

“Love this coffee shop! The beverages are outstanding and the food is delicious! My new favorite spot!“

“Great food at a fare price“

“Best coffeeshop in CR!“

“Went through the drive-through they were very efficient. I am very grateful for the drive-through because when you have little children, it’s hard to drag a whole pile of them in the store. This makes it so I can still get my Starbucks fixed and can handle the children without having to chase after three little onesand if it’s raining, you know, I don’t wanna get out of the car so there we go I love the drive-through!“

“after finding me in the dumpster, instead of being afraid or warning me off the manager actually asked me if I needed something to eat. I was treated to an ever bowl and it was amazing. absolutely delicious. being a vegetarian, and not a very good one I don't really get nutrition like I should. Both workers were absolutely amazing, cheerful and had a wonderful attitude towards their fellow human being. I recommend this place greatly. thank you so much for the new food experience.“

“Awesome cappuccino!! Nice staff. Love the fireplace on a cold day“

“I totally screwed up my own smoothie order today and they were nothing but kind and totally fixed it for me. And only after I left did I realize I had not tipped them either!! I AM SO SORRY! Big fail on my part! TOTAL AWESOMENESS ON THEIRS!!!“

“I grew up going to this store and they still serve you a slice of bread of your choice whenever you walk in. The monkey bread is my absolute favorite! Whenever I’m missing home I go there and treat myself. There’s always such a lovely feeling and smell in there. 🥰“

“The morning barista is amazing and extremely friendly. I've only been to this location a few times and she knows my order already (and my variations). It's inside the Hy-Vee so it's fast and easy to get to, with ample parking.“

“if ur looking for an internet cafe this is a good place for gamers, free internet, lots of receptacles to charge your stuff, and laundy room next door if u got stains. lots of seats & tables if u wanna doomscroll reddit or linkedin due to the tech market collapse. only downside is they were playing The Weeknd Starboy, a song about lucifer.“

“Super friendly Staff! Lots of smiles! Always freaky fast ♥️♥️“

“This place is amazing! The food and the drinks are made with care and with high quality ingredients. The staff is so friendly, helpful and upbeat that I always leave with a smile. Just tried the chicken tortilla soup and it had such a great flavor with so many ingredients that I will definitely be back for more! This place is a must try!!“

“Why are you closed and when will you be open again? I cannot even get an answer on this when I tried yesterday.“

“When you are a regular, as I am, you are loved and treated with nothing but respect. Sure, there's usually a wait, and long drive thru times but... Why do you think that is? Because it's worth it. Cannot say enough good about the management and staff at this location. #fantastic“

“I just dropped in to Cedar Rapids Nutrition to ask for a piece of tape (different story 😊). The associate was so friendly and helpful that I turned around and went right back in. First of all, it smells wonderful in this little shop - It’s also warm, inviting, clean and comfortable! The menu boards are perfect - easy to read and understand all their choices for teas, coffees and shakes! The little seating area has a comfy couch for those that choose to dine in. I love the beautiful Christmas tree.
I asked a few questions about the teas and for a recommendation and decided on a protein shake. I love chocolate and caramel and enjoyed every drop of my chocolate salted caramel shake! Thank you and I’ll be back!

Parking: Found a spot just outside.

Kid-friendliness: The associate was very helpful and answered all my questions about their options. They have options without the energy boost for kids!“

“My daughter and 18 of her friends wanted Starbucks for her birthday. We rode in a limo to Starbucks, parked and ordered 18 drinks. The staff there was AMAZING!! The girls were patient, kind & very efficient. Thank you ladies for your assistance.“

“The staff is nice and very friendly and so happy it’s back open!!“
