My family and I had a lovely time at Barn Happy! As out-of-towners, it was awesome to visit a local…read morespot in Cedar Falls. We were staying at an Airbnb right up the street, so it was super convenient to stop in. We were greeted at the door by the friendliest girl who told us all about the space. She shared that it used to be an old dairy barn and they had a shop & restaurant in the main barn space, an Iowa local shop out back, and an antique treasure shop upstairs. She did mention that if we wanted to dine or sit for coffee, we needed to let her know ahead of time so they could reserve a table space, so keep that in mind if you're planning to stop to eat! We stayed in the main barn area and browsed the local shop finds. They had everything from Iowa-made wine, knife sets, honey, clothing, crafts, artwork, jewelry, and Iowa-themed goodies. If you are shopping for unique local gifts, this is the spot to visit! The shop workers were SO friendly and sweet!! They also made me a delicious caramel latte to go on my way out. I would love to go back when I return to Iowa!

Awful! Apparently the driver had a hard time finding the flower delivery address, so rather than…read morecall me to confirm the address and/or reschedule delivery, left the flowers outside the door. Needless to say, my friend never got her flowers. No apology from the owner. Quite the opposite in fact - terribly rude and unprofessional. Not how one should do business, but apparently they get away with it in a small town because there isn't any competition.
