37 Best Coffee Shops near Hiawatha

“The baristas were incredibly helpful in ensuring we found the right beans for our home espresso machine.“

“Thank you for keeping the standard half and half on hand for my coffee!! All other scooters seem to have switched to the shelf stable half and half that gets chunky in the coffee and tastes weird. I am so thankful to live so close to a place where i can rely on a consistent and delicious cup of coffee!! Helps me get a great start to each day!“

“They made my day today when I ordered pho because I’m sick & they even left me a little note saying “hope you feel better” 🤍 Their food is top tier & always makes me feel 10x better when I’m sick. Thank you for the kindness and taking two seconds out of your day to make someone’s day 🥹“

“I've visited previously and had a great experience. On 9th December 25' I was served by an older, dark-haired lady. There was no greeting or a smile just a "What can I get started for you". Her demeanor and attitude was really cold. I'm glad that I'd had a great experience in the past otherwise this would have been my first and last visit. The café itself is very warm and cosy; the coffee is delicious. It's clean; however the ladies room could use some dusting on the metal rails and paper towel holder. The young ladies that work there are actually really sweet and they even wished me a great day as I walked out which, somewhat made up for the lady that served me.“

“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!“

“It is a must go if you are looking for a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. Easy to order in or to go. The daily bakery specials are to die for.“

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

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

“Only complaint I have is that they're only open until 4, owner remembers my name, sandwiches are tremendous, I love rye and egg salad which they always carry. I love eating there when I am able to. Reasonably priced as well!! One of my faves. One more small complaint: I always miss out on the chicken and wild rice soup lol, which is my own fault. 10 out of 10 on everything else.“

“The best breakfast bagel sandwich I’ve ever had! Love the drinks, love the food, love the staff - cannot recommend enough! 🩷 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️“

“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!!!“

“We love the Southern Pecan. Pick up 2 lb bag last weekend. Best tasting Southern Pecan we have had in the last couple of bags. Not sure the change but wow!!“

“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! :)“

“Awesome coffee, even better employees!“

“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!!“

“Best coffeeshop in CR!“

“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.“

“A great little specialty drink shop. The atmosphere is very “zen”. The lemonade refresher was amazing and the owners were very helpful. Sounds like plans to expand are in the works. Can’t wait to see what the future holds. In the meantime, go grab some coffee, tea, lemonade or check out their other offerings!“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“If you haven’t tried Tiffy Jo’s chili yet, you’re seriously missing out. It’s thick, hearty, and packed with flavor — just the right kick without being too spicy. You can taste that it’s made with love, not out of a can! Perfect for game days, cold nights, or honestly any day you’re craving some good comfort food. Every bite has that homemade touch that makes you want to go back for another bowl. Hands down, the best chili around. Way to go, Tiffy Jo — you nailed it!“

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

“I love going to 7 Brew! The drinks can be a little hit or miss, sometimes super flavorful and sometimes just okay, but the staff makes every visit worth it. Every time my mom and I stop by, everyone is so polite, friendly, and welcoming.
I usually come around 1 PM or at other random times, so the line is never too busy and the wait is never long. Overall, great service and always a pleasant experience!“

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

“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.“

“love this spot...ppl are friendly and menu is great ..family always luvs to stop.here“

“A great pick me up with awesome service!“

“Hey so the guy that served me today was sort of a b-word 0_0. Otherwise this place rules. Fast and nice! Today though.. I just wanted to know the calories in the salted caramel cold brew and he said well hang on I need to google it. Which I of course could do and the way he said that insinuated I could. I just said “oh I’m sorry I could have! I just see the cals next to some drinks-“ he cut me off and said “YEAH I dont have a menu on meeeeeyah.” I said okay gotchu! I’ll go ahead and do the cold brew with salted foam on top-“ he cut me off again.. “YEAH it comes with it on top.”

Context: The time I came I ended up getting salted Carmel flavored cold brew so wanted to be sure but I didn’t say that to him, I just said okay gotchu thank you. Then left. I know it’s a big review. But maybe they will see this and he won’t be so rude next time 🥲“

“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!“
