Hidden Gem Alert!
We usually hit the coffee shop by Rivercenter, but I happened to drive past this spot and wow — what a find! I got a caramel latte and a fried egg sandwich, and both were absolutely delicious. The coffee tastes fresh and smooth — not burnt or stale like some places. And the sandwich? So yummy!
Prices are totally reasonable too.
Highly recommend checking it out if you’re near The Adler or Rivercenter. Definitely bookmarking this for our next dance trip in the spring!

Coffee if perfect and scones amazing. Staff so friendly! Visit everytime I come to town.

Not good at all.
I had the chorizo sandwich.
It was cold in the middle of the patty.
I also had the New Orleans, oat milk. Supposed to have brown sugar.
And they gave me tasteless coffee, not sweet, bland with regular milk.
** When I went back to have them fix it, gentleman said he could only give me a small Americano to make up for the mess up.
I payed $9 for regular coffee ... Very disappointed.
Never coming here again.
**If you have dietary restrictions, I would NOT recommend this place, since they ignored mine and then they did the bare minimum to make up for it.

I've been grinding
all kinds and brands of coffee since 1984. nothing has pleased me as much as redband coffee. the roaster is an artist. bravo!

Great staff, great coffee.
They were very knowledgeable and friendly, even when I stopped by right before closing for the day. Came in for locally roasted coffee, left with some more brewing recommendations and a good blend of beans to try.
Redband will be my ritual coffee stop whenever I come through the QCA again.

Was spending some time in Iowa with Bettendorf as our home base. Redband was recommended to us and we are so glad we went. My wife tried her first “New Orleans Iced Coffee” and loved it. I had a latte and some grounds to take back for the rest of the week. These were legit some of the best coffees we’ve ever had. The staff was friendly and helpful. And such a sleek operation with the drive-thru, walk-up, and inside ordering capabilities. If you’re in the area this is the coffee shop to goto

Against policy to add flavor to an americano. If I pay 6 bucks for a coffee, it should be made the way I want. Vanilla latte was sub par also.

Redband delivering that espresso punch I love so much.
On a free Saturday where I find myself up in the Quad Cities, my friend Cassey and I drop in for a quick cup of coffee before heading to a beerfest event. I needed something strong and I needed it an hour ago. Luckily Redband was on my radar and it was on the way to the event.
If you’ve read any of my recent coffee posts, you know I love a good espresso with a solid punch to the mouth of bitter. So, I was delighted to see they had an americao on the menu. I ordered it iced like I usually do and Cassey got her usual breve. The barista disappeared to the back of the shop and started preparing our drinks.
Walking in, you notice there is nowhere to sit and there is a sign on the wall that tells you that the waiting area has a maximum of 4 people and all items are ‘to go’. A very unusual arrangement considering there seemed to be a full-sized building for Redband next door… but the entrance to the parking lots were blocked off. It almost felt like this building was the roasting facility and the one next door is the proper coffeehouse but I forgot to ask whats up with that.
Any who, the lady came back with our coffee and we made our exit. I took a sip a few steps outside the door and I was floored by the bitterness. It was strong. Stronger than was I was used to and I loved it. The level of bitter made it a slow drink, which is fine since I can down almost any drink in a minute or two if I am not conscious of trying to pace myself.
There is another location and that one is located in a really cool, unique building. I really want to try it but don’t know how often I can pop into the Quad Cities just to try out coffeehouses but where there is an americano… there is my desire to go there.
Parking: Not sure if the Redband building next door is open but for this building, we had to park on the street. If the Redband building next door is open, it has a small parking lot for it's customers.
