Honestly dont think of Smokey Row for their breakfast sandwiches but try them. They're really good. I mainly stop for a flavor coffee when the need strikes but this time I was short of breakfast. Not disappointed.

Unique atmosphere, cordial staff
A few vegetarian selections. Very good sandwiches. All day breakfast is interesting, maybe next time. And the coffee? You have to try it!

Love Smokey Row! I prefer supporting an Iowa business. It's easy because their coffee is way better than Starbucks!

This is my fave place to grab coffee!!! I always love the ambience of the fire, the chairs are cozy, the coffee & food are delicious, and the baristas always go the extra mile. A special shoutout to the manager, Chloe, for always going above and beyond!!! Thanks for always making my day brighter 💗

This is suck good coffee...sometimes. they thought it would be fun to put normal milk in my coffee before a 6 hour bus ride then a 7 hour plane ride. Lucky it just made me need the bathroom a few times. But please never again.

Three of us ladies visited early afternoon 2/13/25 for nice warm soup on a very cold and windy day. This was all of our first time at a Smokey Row. We all had the Cheeseburger Chowder, which was excellent!! Our waitress, Eliza, was very cheerful and efficient. We will definitely return!!

Do not go if you have any other plans for the rest of the day. Extremely slow.

20 minutes for a couple of breakfast sandwiches, got a sausage biscuit sandwich, ordered the breakfast sandwich that comes on toast. Biscuit fell apart when eating.

One of the best places in Des Moines to get coffee. It's also a local island business at a Pleasant ville, Iowa.

if i could give zero stars i would. workers were extremely rude and passive aggressive to our whole group. we paid for pumpkin bread and then gave us frozen banana bread and told us to “give it 30 minutes”. They forgot my friends icecream and when we mentioned it worked rolled eyes into the back of her head. i and another friend got the icecream and have been fighting for our lives ever since. at one point i thought death may be easier. waukee smokey row is my personal hell on earth.
