13 Best Coffee Shops in Waukee

“Just popped into The Coffeesmith to try it out for the first time - I immediately had to run and leave a review bc it’s just that good! I tried the summer seasonal smores latte, I am a smores latte connoisseur, and this one was amazing!! But what really had me running to leave a stellar review? The almond patty pastry. Only one bite into it and I’ve determined it’s going to be something I crave way too often. Growing up in Eastern Iowa as a bohemie, iykyk, I frequently visited Jaarsma’s and know my way around almond pastries of all kinds. The Coffesmith’s almond patty rivals all others! You have to have it! 🤩🥐“

“Tried Hyper Energy Grand Island for the 1st time and wasn't disappointed at all. Great Serviice, great drinks and great flavor.“

“I'm extremely picky about boba so it can be hard to find boba places that I like, and I thought I had found my favorite boba place... and then I tried Zenko and now other boba will never beat it lol. I'm a very routine-order person so I've only ever tried the black sugar milk tea with boba here, but I lowkey just never bothered trying any of their other drinks simply because this one is so good. Most of my friends who do like several of their drinks also tend to gravitate towards the black sugar milk tea as well, though, so I feel validated in always ordering the same drink over and over :) It's also so cozy and fun inside all the shops--I've been to three of the locations and they all have the same relaxing vibe, lots of plants and soft music.“

“the two gals working about 1 oclock on 1/18/24 were awsome i ordered a iced daydreamer and they made it better , fast and efficient, ! greeted with a big smile! management should give these gals a raise !“

“Visited this Caribou on Sunday May 1st. We like the coffee here. Ordered a large Northern Latte with almond milk and sugar free caramel. Waited for 20 minutes to be handed an iced Latte and a little longer to be handed a medium instead of a large and couldn't wait any longer so we drove away with a wrong size coffee.“

“New and exciting! LOL.

This is a fancy Starbucks. We loved that they had half a dozen people working, because it was busy. Especially the drive through was 10 cars deep.

We went inside. They had a wall of dog customers 1st thing. My favorite thing ever.

Some merchandise available.

We had a pink drink, cake pop, regular coffee, and bagel. Total was $18. I don't really like coffee, and theirs is definitely not my favorite. BUT when in the mood, it does the trick. The bagel and cake pop were fresh and tasty.

Nice clean atmosphere including the bathrooms.

Seating for 40ish?“

“The newest Starbucks in the area. The store is very clean and great layout. Staff is friendly and welcoming. The space is ample but more steating would be nice. There is too much merchandise in the way to order and is a terrible attempt to sell you other Starbucks products.“

“Its pretty much in my backyard. Everyone is friendly. Pastries are wonderful. Prices are not insane. The only place I go for coffee now. The staff rocks!“
