Coffee Shops near Norwalk

“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.“

“Customer service is great. A mistake was made on my drink (added lemonade to a drink that I asked for no lemonade). I didn't know until I got to work. I called in because i couldnt drink it and wasnt aire what the policy was for a refund or soemthing, and they offered to fix it. I came back the next morning (just now) and they were completely friendly and remade the drink.“

“I go through the drive thru every morning for my 2$ breakfast sandwich. I am always greeted friendly and quickly. They do make little mistake here and there, but if you let them know next time when you go through, they always wanna make it right.
Be patient. Be understanding. The people behind the counter are humans, not robots.“

“Excellent coffee and even better cream pastries—get there early, they sell out fast!“

“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.“

“Betsy is always the best barista and very friendly with me and my dog Tela and I always love talking with her and she makes the best mocha ever!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Lots of great reading material from newspapers, magazines-even children's books!“

“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.“

“Absolutely amazing experience! Owner is amazing and really knows his Pokémon cards and his coffee! Has an excellent selection of cards, old and new, and has great prices! Coffee was excellent and cards were even better!“

“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.“

“Gotta get a Sputnik- you’ll never go back!“

“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.“

“Chowrastha Indian Grill & Eatery serves delicious Indian food with rich flavors and great portions. The ambiance is cozy, and the service is friendly, making it a great spot for a satisfying meal!“

“Great local food with excellent service!“

“I have a new favorite coffee shop. I've been wanting to stop here ever since they built the place a few years ago. The stars aligned today, so I went. The location is kind of strange. It's safe enough, I'm just not sure if it's in the best location for coffee afficionados. But it's still here after all this time, so what do I know? The building is beautiful and the indoor decor is lovely. It has a sort of rustic forest cabin feel to it complete with a stone fireplace. There are plenty of places for privacy or communal sipping, whichever you prefer. It was a cool morning so I had a hot chocolate, which was not to sweet and very drinkable. I inhaled mine. I ordered the grilled sausage, egg, and cheese burrito. I was pleasantly surprised to find that they use chorizo sausage. It wasn't too hot, but added just the right kick. I also ordered a chocolate muffin which was about the size of a softball. I ate it later in the day and it was still extremely moist and flavorful. You should go here.“

“pastry's are the best, eggnog is delish, but top 30% of the cup was foam.“

“I am not much of a tea drinker, but this place is great when I want tea. The prepared chai tea is amazing. I recommend the fruit fantasia as a good herbal option and gateway to get into drinking tea. The fruit fantasia is beautiful as far as tea goes. Also, the customer service is usually great.“

“The inside is beautiful, with plants and how the tables are arranged. They even have a little area where board games were located.
I got the gelato three scoops regular strawberry and green tea. The strawberry was a bit sour but the... ????? ???!!!? was soooooo smooth(that I forgot Im lactose intolerant) having both helped balance it out. 10/10 recommend ?“

“I ordered a donut cake for my daughters donut themed birthday. They were so easy and fantastic to work with. The donut cake tasted delicious and was a huge hit!“

“Best place to enjoy great coffee“

“Drive thru closed 15 minutes before closing but went inside for our order! Otherwise terrific“

“Easily one of my favorite spots for coffee and tea. They always have a new coffee of the day in rotation that’s my go-to. The store is always clean and the baristas are always friendly. The roast of their beans is unmatched with a rich flavor that is to die for. They have the largest list of flavors I’ve seen in a coffee store making an endless list of options. I’ve recently become a fan of their cookie butter latte feature biscoff cookie syrup and crumbles on top. They have both indoor and outdoor seating which offers options depending on the weather. I enjoy meeting friends and family here for a coffee and quick bite to eat.

Dietary restrictions: They have dairy-free options for drinks and usually something to eat that is vegetarian.

Parking: Free lot parking

Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly menu (I.e. breakfast foods and snacks), plenty of seating and a safe space outside for the active kiddos

Wheelchair accessibility: There is wheelchair accessible parking and seating.“

“Perfect spot for a healthy, refreshing, and yummy drink or shake! The protein balls are amazing! And the staff is all so friendly!“

“Favorite coffee spot in Iowa!“

“Use to come here once in awhile and a small group of us have decided to start again. Nice quite place...well except for the ladies working..extremely loud. It was food they were having a good time but we ended up moving to the other side for a little less cackling.“

“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!“

“Favorite coffee spot in Iowa!“

“Great coffee! Fast service!“

“Shout out to David at the drive thru! I work in customer service and thoroughly appreciated my experience today. It’s the little things :)“

“The drinks are always delicious but the staff here made my day!!“

“If you are looking for great food and an even better atmosphere you gotta try Ritual. Perfect for meeting a friend, studying or just enjoying a book alone.“

“White chocolate mocha hot“

“We have been several times in the law few weeks and it’s been perfect every time. Veggie frittata is a must try, best I’ve had! My iced coffees have all be the perfect balance. Not too sweet. Scones and muffins are also so good. Grabbed a blackberry lavender scone for my daughter in law and she said it was very good. Great atmosphere also!“

“if you haven't already tried his mocha Frappuccino, you should before he sells the business. he makes the best I've ever ❤ had.“

“Drive thru closed 15 minutes before closing but went inside for our order! Otherwise terrific“

“Yay, Cumming has its own Starbucks! Went there on first day, service was excellent, everyone was courteous. My wife had a Chai Tea latte and she said it was best she has ever had ( and she has had a lot).

Everyone in Cumming, Norwalk, stop on in, Cumming is proud of its new Starbucks!

Adding to my earlier review, Starbucks continues to be a 5 star location! Today they remembered a special way I like my drink and did it without asking. That is good customer service!“

“Cute little place to stop. Takes you back in time to an old candy store with ice cream sundaes, floats & more. Lots of fun candy to look at. Places to sit inside and a bench outside. We went at the end of the day so they were out of two different ice cream flavors. We took our kids and they thought it was neat. If you are looking for “something different” or get the “we’re bored”, give this a try.

Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly as in there is lots to look at. If they struggle with touching everything, maybe not ?. The bar stools next to the ice cream freezer are high, so more for 6+ year olds without supervision.“

“If you look at the etymology behind the words "company" and "companion", the French "copain" and "copine", and the Spanish "compaña", you will find the root word "pan".....bread. All of these words have their basis in the gathering of friends and family to break bread and spend time with each other. That is the sense of community that Deja and her employees create every day at Savor the Rise. It is a place to sit, people watch, and enjoy a matcha latte. It is a place to gather with friends before work. It is a place to smile at strangers and hold conversations with people who you may never see again after the few hours you spend sitting at the large, community-sized table in the center of the shop. And whoever you may be, you are greeted with a smile and a sincere "How are you?" If you are looking for a local place to buy your weekly bread (the rye is amazing, by the way), a special treat for yourself when you need a pick-me-up, or you just want to try something new from an amazing local establishment with a menu full of delicious sweet and savory options, give Savor the Rise a try.“

“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.“
