I met an acquaintance for coffee, did not purchase food. There is a drink latte/coffee/hor chocolate menu. I had drip coffee which was good. Pleasant place to enjoy a coffee, meet with friends or work. There is an assortment of games and books available for patrons.

I got a Hot Mocha and the bill was $7 for 8 OZ... the casher could have been an automated screen. took a long time for mediocre expensive coffee. ill try this spot again to see if i change my mind, but so far everytime i think about this place i think about how bad it was.

I moved to Des Moines from Nebraska and I was homesick for my favorite coffee hangout. The Slow Down is honestly even more cozy, inviting and has a warmer vibe, I love it.

Always very welcoming, especially the owners, Drew and Anna! Their coffee tastes very clean compared to Starbucks and Dunkin! They have an awesome punchcard loyalty program and welcome diverse populations from everywhere without judging them! They are all very kind!

I go here quite a bit. But occasionally, the one of the baristas is rude to me. It's always the same one haha. The remainder are incredibly nice or at least friendly.

Today, after being very short with me (she/they wouldn't tell me what roast was available until I pried?), I watched her dig for the smallest mug on the coffee rack before putting my coffee in it.

We stopped here to kill a few hours while our pet was at a vet appointment. What a find! Tasty coffee, great, friendly service, and a super sweet soundtrack made our stay really enjoyable. We even found Five Crowns on the games shelf, and my wife proceeded to clean my clock over 3 rounds. All sorts of nice merch available, too, from stickers to Ts to mugs to books. Go here!
