I first heard about this coffee shop from a coworker. Their coffee is, quite literally, the best…read morecoffee I've ever had. I'd genuinely love to know which local roasters they source their beans from. What stands out most is how smooth the coffee is--there's absolutely no bitter aftertaste. Their honey brown sugar latte deserves special recognition. So many honey lattes either taste overly artificial or like the honey is barely there at all. Not this one. The flavors are perfectly balanced, and it's honestly one of the best coffee drinks I've ever had. I could drink gallons of it. The quality is fantastic and I've found myself thinking about that latte long after I've finished it. My only complaint is that I don't live closer. If I did, I'd probably be there every day.

What a neat little coffee shop! We stopped in in need of some caffeine this morning and were not…read moredisappointed! We ordered an iced mocha latte and iced snickerdoodle latte. The snickerdoodle was perfectly spiced and still had some coffee flavor. The mocha was delicious, certainly an occasional treat as it is more of a coffee milkshake than a coffee. We also ordered the mini apple cider donuts which were okay, they seemed to be plain donuts tossed in cinnamon sugar and the dough had a funny aftertaste. Overall they have a killer menu and a cute & homey sitting area and patio. With so many coffee and caffeine drinks to try- we'll be back!

My gf likes the front two rooms, but all the way at the back is where you'll find me. That's where you'll find the old treasures. And that's my happy spot. A must stop for us now in Slater when we are cutting between Ames and the metro. And if you are in Slater check out Cole's too. You won't be sorry.

Definitely will be coming here again. We'll try to walk in too so that my daughter can take her time deciding on something to eat as well.

Unfortunately, I've moved away HOWEVER I have successfully had so many of my friends become love interests to this location, that they're informing me when my favorite cold brews are back in stock! THEY NOW HAVE COLD BREW CANNED. So you know I purchase like 4 everytime I am in. Everyone and their mothers know I love this location, I've never had an issue with staff, who's incredibly kind, respectful and super fast to deliver drinks and food. They're drive through is speedy and if you're an addict like myself, giving your number to get points towards more drinks makes my entire life. Truly cannot speak highly enough about this place and giggling evilly as I continue to swap every Starbucks, 7 brew, and Dunkin lover over to this beautiful side.

I felt like this was overpriced for drink and food quality that was not tasty.

It's a place that feels like a big chain, but it's just very modern and techie that makes good coffee. My kids loved getting the hot chocolate flight and I enjoyed my Halloween themed coffee flight as well. My husband got the pistachio latte and really enjoyed it, and both of us liked our scones. The only thing that really really threw me off was opening the door and instantly being hit by a wave of something that smelled like a hairdresser's place. I don't think I've ever been to a coffee shop with decent coffee that didn't smell like really good coffee. I don't know if it's the spaces nearby (it's in a strip) or the fact that it's a workspace and so the smell dissipates, but it was very offputting to have that smell in a coffee shop. Other than that, it was a great experience.
