Katie and the other people are so nice and the coffee is quite good. I like Mom and pop shops not Starbucks. You know what I mean southern sports community.
Coffee shop in the heart of downtown Iowa City and easily one of my favorite study spots! I love how big the space is. It can accommodate a lot of students without ever feeling cramped, and there are tons of outlets which is always a huge win when you’re studying. It’s the perfect place to get work done alone or catch up with friends over lunch.
I haven’t tried a ton from the food menu yet, but the Caesar wrap is so good. They also have one of the best iced matcha...read full review

Super clean interior space - hence the Atmosphere. Almost to the point of sterile. lol Definitely catering to the college crowd. Observed by college-aged people, and decor/layout/wall art/space. Service was average. Not a whole lot of Customer service/forward friendliness. The coffee was decent. If not for the proximity to the hotel, the traffic business for this place might be a little on the light side. Bathrooms...Super clean.

Poindexter Coffee offers a lively and inviting atmosphere with a funky decor that makes it a great spot for a coffee and chat. The space is attractive and welcoming, with a variety of seating options that cater to different preferences. The baristas are friendly and accommodating, providing excellent service. The Americanos are praised as perfect, and the Almond Joy latte was enjoyed as delicious and quiet, adding to the cozy vibe. The cafe sometimes faces issues with WiFi connectivity, which can be barely functional, and this can be frustrating for customers. The food quality can vary; while some dishes like avocado toast are stellar and well-priced given their quality, others, such as cinnamon rolls, have been noted as day-old. The venue also hosts events, and staff are very accommodating during these times. Overall, Poindexter Coffee is a space with a great atmosphere, good coffee, and friendly service, though WiFi issues and occasional food inconsistency are points to consider.
