“It's a super cute coffee shop, tucked in the middle of the block. The vibe inside was light, airy, and welcoming. I love that they are all about being eco friendly! Instead of paper cups, you get your coffee in cute glass jars. The staff were very friendly and helpful. And the best part was the amazing coffee and pastries. My breakfast latte was delicious. The cinnamon crown had bits of apple pieces and was so gooey and delicious. This is a great place to stop.“

“Was looking for a better coffee place to support -rather than a corporation that funds unethically internationally, or a local place that treats their employees horribly. I love that Mayalu is local, delicious, and invested in the community. Feels good to spend my treat money here ☕️ 🥮.“

“Stopped by at the DSM Farmer’s Market - tons of coffee competition but Northern Vessels iced oat milk latte did not disappoint! I normally drink my coffee over the period of 3+ hours but I had this bad boy finished in 30 minutes! It was smooth, creamy and wonderful! Will definitely be visiting again!“
“Love my Waukee location! Can’t wait for Norwalk! I wish the West Des Moines location was a little more friendly.“
“Super convenient, super fast service, amazing customer service from Maddy, and with rewards frequent discount, I love the Waukee location they have stickers also new ones every month“

“Great priced coffee, sweet people, and of course fluffy chonkers. I've adopted 3 lovely bois from here. Boogie, Draco, and Geto are all amazing in their own way. This is one of the best ways you can spend your lunch break.“

“New paved parking lot directly across 28th street as of summer 2025. C&S will validate parking when changes to paid lot in future, so don’t let lack of parking deter you anymore. Lattes are on par with the best coffee shops in town. Mechanics and shop owner are top notch. I was a Rassy’s refugee and found my new home here.“

“Just popped into The Coffeesmith to try it out for the first time - I immediately had to run and leave a review bc it’s just that good! I tried the summer seasonal smores latte, I am a smores latte connoisseur, and this one was amazing!! But what really had me running to leave a stellar review? The almond patty pastry. Only one bite into it and I’ve determined it’s going to be something I crave way too often. Growing up in Eastern Iowa as a bohemie, iykyk, I frequently visited Jaarsma’s and know my way around almond pastries of all kinds. The Coffesmith’s almond patty rivals all others! You have to have it! 🤩🥐“

“Ordered ahead on the app which is always a breeze. Walked in and there was only two me girl working. She was pretty busy but kicking butt! Unfortunately I didn’t catch her name but she was friendly as well and the drinks were good! The pumpkin white mocha is good in moderation, it didn’t mention spice in the app so wasn’t expecting the spice flavor.“

“I stopped at Caribou (drive thru) to get a coffee and a glazed donut. The coffee was delicious as usual, but the glazed donut was ice cold--like they just took it out for the freezer/fridge. I can't eat a cold donut, so I had to wait until I got home an hour later to warm it up.“

“Stopped on a Sunday morning. Charming outside area with plantyvof seating. Inside also has plenty of seating. I was thrilled to be offered a triple shot cortado versus double. The service was pleasant and quick. The coffee flavor was excellent as that is what I seek.“

“The coffee was great, but the food was amazing! They have different types of savory pies. I couldn't decide which one I wanted to try, so I just ordered the one at the top of the list. It was So delicious! I'm excited to try each one. Highly recommend. They have a drive through too!“

“Always so fast, but not in a hurry. Just watched them clear a line of 5 cars in 1 minute. Drinks always taste the same.“
“This is a drive-thru coffee shop that's similar to a CarHop from the 1950s. Fun, super friendly, fast service at your car. The music is blasting and the girls come out to your car to take your order. It's usually pretty busy with several vehicles in line waiting, but the service is fast and the drinks are diverse with creative new mixtures. It's less expensive than Caribou or Starbucks. There is no dine-in option, the only drawback.“

“Dont sleep on Scooters! Quality and selection are way better than the StarBz! Everyone is always so helpful with ordering and super friendly. Prices also beat out SB. Oreo Blender medium $6.15 & its so good you will dream about it! They always give our girls pup cups too and thats huge for our spoiled rotten puppies. The coffee is delish, the service is great. We choose Scooters over every other option in Norwalk, every time.“

“Visited this Caribou on Sunday May 1st. We like the coffee here. Ordered a large Northern Latte with almond milk and sugar free caramel. Waited for 20 minutes to be handed an iced Latte and a little longer to be handed a medium instead of a large and couldn't wait any longer so we drove away with a wrong size coffee.“

“I love Caribou Coffee and think everybody should try it over some *other* chain places! This place in particular has a pleasing ambiance and atmosphere that almost has a luxury lodge feel to it. Additionally my drink (lavender matcha) was one of the best matches I have ever had. Truly cannot recommend Caribou enough and will be coming back!“
“Shout out to David at the drive thru! I work in customer service and thoroughly appreciated my experience today. It’s the little things :)“

“I have been to MANY Starbucks but this has to be the best experience I have ever had. This crew (Ella, Jacey, & Elsa) was so courteous, knowledgeable, and passionate about what they do! The coffee was delicious but their positive energy was a great start to the morning!“
“Everytime I come here, the girl at the register is so sweet to me and I read her name off her nametag and it's Grace. I've had so much bad experiences at other Starbucks locations or Dunkin Donuts locations but no complaints about this one!“

“I just want to thank the sweet soul working the drive thru today. I grabbed a coffee on my way to work after a long night of little to no sleep. My tears hiding behind my sunglasses. Maybe it was the shake in my voice or one of those tears slipped out. But she seemed to have known. Her sweet comment that I look lovely today, made me smile. (Also, me knowing, I look like a mess). Thank you for taking the moment to make someone’s day a little better, the world needs more humans like you.“
“Favorite coffee spot in Iowa!“
“Really nice Starbucks location inside the gas station with no drive through. The employees here were very nice and helpful. I ordered the Dragon fruit Mango lemonade refresher and blackberry lemonade refresher drinks were great. Overall experience was excellent.“
“Starbucks was handing out samples in the Ivy store while I was grocery shopping. They featured a brownie that was absolutely delicious. They also had an Irish Cream iced coffee. I usually don't do cold coffee drinks but that one blew me away. Now I'm a fan“

“We submitted a large order for a 500+ person annual event--very impressed with the communication, professionalism, and high-quality of the chocolate, personalized with our logo and packaged as gifts, for our guests. Chocolaterie Stam will definitely top of our list for future gifts as a special treat!“

“This Starbucks is definitely #1 in the DSM/WDM metro. Emma is EMMAzing. Alyssa is a fantastic manager. Margo is MAR-GOATED. Lydia is really awesome. Grace is GRACEFUL in her work. Brooklyn (Brookie) is awesome sauce. I've come to the night crew twice, but those two nailed it as well.
Entire place is always clean.
Service is always #1
Drink are always made perfect and I absolutely LOVE the messages they write. Not generic. They're truly personal.
Flowers to the entire crew!“
