Great coffee, friendly service as always! I also got a piece of their coffee cake and a breakfast burrito and they were both so good. Easily a top 5 breakfast burrito for me in recent memory and it's not 5. The crispy hash brown and the ratio of bacon (added it on) and eggs carry this and the aioli is amazing. Looking forward to trying this again next time I'm in town!

In my quest for having a favorite local coffee spot in every city I visit, Uptown Coffee was my…read morelatest adventure in Cedar Rapids. Uptown has a very eclectic, hipster vibe to it. The seating area is behind where you order coffee--looks like it's a bar in the evenings. They also have a great breakfast selection. I was hoping to try one of the breakfast sandwiches, but had to opt for a pastry because service was so slow. I ordered my go-to basic drip coffee with cream. It was perfect! Definitely the morning pick me up I needed. Since I wasn't able to get a hardier breakfast, I opted for a donut. The cake donut was definitely yummy! While there were three people working behind the counter, I had to wait about 10 minutes to even order. One staff member was making drinks, another making food, and the third was making signs. I'm sure the signs were important, but so are customers who are standing in front of you. Bottom line, I will give Uptown another shot when I'm back in the area because the coffee was that good and the sandwiches being made looked and smelled delicious.

Got bought by Kathy's pies in Cedar Rapids, now they restocked some of the gas stations in Marion with the original logo and iconography, however I would not pull up to the address listed here or the one online because you will show up to a house That still has the sign on it but there is no one inside, there's a for sale sign in the yard.

What a great find. Had apple and cherry turnovers and a cinnamon roll. All fresh and tasty! If you like quality, artisan baked goods (nothing against the glazed donut/cream filled donut crowd) this is the place to go in Marion. The folks behind the counter were super friendly and made us feel good about stopping by. Finding it threw me for a second, though. They are in a house in what looks like a normal housing neighborhood. The sign is under the eaves and it's set back front the sidewalk under a nice shade tree. If you don't see it at first, look again. You'll be glad you did.

I Ordered A Burrito Bowl, And While Waiting, I Noticed The Barista Pull A Container Of Pre-Made Ingredients From The Fridge, Scoop It Into A Bowl, And Microwave It. What?! I Don't Go Out To Eat Just To Be Served Microwaved Food. If You're Going To Have Food On The Menu, It Should At Least Be Fresh. Unfortunately, The Taste Didn't Make Up For The Disappointment. The Bowl Was Bland, Lacked Any Real Flavor, And The So-Called "Salsa" Was Unimpressive At Best. Honestly, Just Stick To Coffee And Skip The Food. Absolutely Not Worth It.

Barista was overwhelmed with me asking if their coffee beans are arabica or else. Another stated I think we've got Costa Rica blend mix here. Moving forward with my order I had to repeat myself 3 (!) x cause barista would be interrupted by her headset & unable to hear or absorb the order. Drive through was served by 2 other baristas. I dared to ask if they have a Joghurt parfait, or fruit bowl/cup or anything without meat. Nope, but 'we can take the meat off'. Something all vegetarians & vegans LOVE hearing! The party I met up with experienced the same lack of attention ordering her coffee prior me, complaining she had to repeat herself several times. Rest assure our next meeting (we ended up being 6 people) will be at another venue next time.
