“I’ve lived in Norwalk for over 10 years, and I was genuinely excited when Starbucks opened in town. We’ve had nothing but great experiences here—friendly staff, clean store, and our orders are always spot on.

Recently, I placed a mobile order that was delayed, and I was in a bit of a rush to get to a doctor’s appointment. I let the manager know as I was leaving, and the team jumped into action. Shout out to Marcus (I believe that was his name)—he made sure my order was prioritized and got me out the door quickly. On top of that, they even offered a gift card to make up for the inconvenience, which was totally unexpected and appreciated.

Mistakes happen—it’s how a team responds that matters, and they handled it perfectly. I’ll continue to be a regular here. Nothing but 5 stars from me!“

“I had an issue with the app glitching on my phone it took the money out and didnt give me a code this is the first this has happened to me. I spoke with a manager and she was super helpful and kind about it and fixed the issue right away this kind of behavior is not what im used to so I wanted to give a huge shout out to her she did awsome and deserves some praise for how she handled this situation these kinds of people are hard to find so please keep her 😁 sincerely a super satisfied customer“

“Beautiful roasts, great pour overs, delicious shots and Gibraltars. Best in the state that I’ve found! Keep it up guys. Omg and the scones…perfect.“

“Best coffee shop in Des Moines!! ☕️ Amazing local honey tooo 🍯“

“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 ☕️ 🥮.“

“This coffee shop has it all! 1. The best coffee, specifically the cold brew latte is AMAZING! Second is Spanish Latte when I need something hot. 2. The best hospitality team! I can't say enough great things about Jack and Macie and the rest of the baristas! 3. The owner has created an atmosphere that you can't find at other coffee shops. This place is truly one of a kind!“

“Wonderfully kind staff, our first visit was perfect. We tried thier seasonal smores latte and its the best I ever had. I recommend any of their crepes!“

“If you're into loose-leaf tea at all, you have to visit Gong Fu Tea. The wall of tea tins they have behind the counter is insane—they literally have every kind of tea you could possibly think of.

I was a bit overwhelmed by the massive menu, but the staff was super patient and helped me pick out an incredible oolong tea that they brewed perfectly. The vibe inside is incredibly peaceful, minimalist, and relaxing. It's the perfect place in the East Village to get away from the noise, sit down, and just enjoy a really high-quality cup of tea.“
