What a gem in this small iowa town. We stopped for lunch and had the pleasure of meeting the owners, hear their story and have a great lunch. Word of mouth travels and hope others will seek out this Bisto and Bakery. Atmosphere is very nice. And the food and bakery items!!! Tenderloin....hand cut and breaded and super meaty..no gristle. New fav! Harvest Turkey sandwich with a bistro flair was scrumptious.The owner makes the bread from scratch.. brioche bun and sour dough bread elevated the sandwiches even more and speak to their quality standards. We left with a homemade cookie and an anti inflammatory inspired recipe cinnamon roll which was actually very good. Can't wait to return again...breakfast, bistro coffees, lunch , dinner, desserts to eat there or purchase to go. How fortunate we stopped!

This place, is tasty, beautiful and delicious. They have a great menu for lunch and breakfast. Two stacks of 3 pancakes, a side of bacon, a side of biscuits and gravy, a slice of cheesecake and two delicious vanilla lattes for $25.

Stopped in here for lunch on a bike ride Saturday. My harvest turkey sandwich was delicious. First time on the paved trail to Collins and Sweet Oaks is a great reason to come back.

The food was amazing, the atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, and the person working was friendly and accommodating. We drove in from Des Moines and it was worth the drive. They even sell plant cuttings! Highly recommend the chicken scramble, and the bread pudding was the best I've ever had! We'll definitely eat here again

I ride my motorcycle to as many small town Cafes/diners as I can. I have been to a few dozen and this place is my favorite so far. Its sleek, very clean. They use an Iowa Coffee company for their beans and their food is great. Huge cup of coffee and an OG burrito is about the best way to start the day. I will be going back!
