What was even more dramatically different from previous visits was the lack of cleanliness. Only one table was occupied, yet the rest of them were dirty. The floors were not clean and the most offensive issue was the sewer odor in the hallway leading to restrooms. I will try again and hope it was a just a bad day.

Updated 2020 review:…read more Coffee-ok. Bagels- still ok. Einstein Brothers Bagels are the right size for satisfying but I come here to catch up with friends weekend early mornings and they never have hot and tasty out of the oven. All but the Asiago cheese and honey wheat bagels are vegan. My go to are: Blueberry with pbj spread or everything bagel with avocado. For hot coffee I get the house coffee of the day; For cold: I have been lovin' their iced pomegranate Açai green tea latte with coconut milk and jellies! (Ask for no honey to veganize) Yes!! Jellies! It's like a boba drink at caribou... Pro tip: I don't recommend ordering veganized hot lattes; they steam their plant milk with the same spout as cow milk= cross contamination. Even if they spray/wipe it out. Not good for those who are allergic/highly intolerant. Also NO to their mochas: made with chocolate that contains milk and there is no substitution. Early morning weekends are a breeze. Easy parking, easy drive up. Very busy on weekdays. Add time for margin; watch out for cars coming into parking lot as they come in quickly from the gym or Hickman Rd. I visit because location is key. It's the only caribou coffee around here, till West Des Moines and Downtown DSM.

I was in Des Moines and took my time driving back to Bloomington. After checking out of the hotel, I needed a beverage. This Caribou Coffee was a two-minute drive away. It was wonderful. I hit the drive-thru. I had the nicest woman on the other end take my order. I rattled off my phone number associated with my perks account. I then ordered a large sparkling peach black tea. There was a customer ahead of me. I approached the window once that person was done. I paid with a credit card and tipped. I then got my drink. I thanked the woman and left the cafe to get on with my day. My peach black tea was perfect. I loved the peach flavour mixed in with black tea. The fact that it was sparkling made it enjoyable and fancy. My day started on the right foot. It continued to keep me content. I stopped at a couple of places in Des Moines before leaving the city to head northbound. It was great getting my first 'bou fix in Iowa. Whenever I'm back in Des Moines, I'd definitely return here for more sparkling drinks. (455)

Had good seating and some cushioned seating against the wall. I checked out their website before visiting so I was looking forward to grabbing a muffin, however their display case was empty so I wasn't sure if they had some in the back or aren't available at this location, but my introverted self was too shy to ask. I ordered an iced "Caramelized Almond Latte", it was okay, however I like my drinks more on the sweet side, so if I were to come back I would ask for some extra caramel or something. The coffee shop itself was clean but after a while I got a little chilly. Bathroom was nice and clean. Overall nice coffee shop and would recommend if you want something with a similar but calmer Starbucks vibe.

Ordering menu is large! Overwhelming. Food is served here. Glass case located next to payment area has traditional pastries. No plant based/vegan options. It looked as if there were no pastries. Visited a couple times already and it looked the same. Service was stiff. Nothing extraordinary. Was hoping service would be better the second time around. Ordered a medium oatmilk latte and large iced chai tea latte. But received a medium instead. Asked to have drink size corrected but they wanted to charge for the correction. Total came to $11.xx Upcharge on the oatmilk. I appreciate plant based milk options. Lots of open seating inside and outside. 2 employees were working and were masked. Every patron entering were masked. Masks are required to enter. Ok to drink w/o mask. Drink cooler needs to be handled by an employee. Noticed the in-house roaster. Roast is slightly smooth and made with good flavor. Recognized shop is a franchise. I might come back if I was in the neighborhood. I may recommend if I come back and try again, but I will have to be aware if better service is provided. Other than that, drinks were Dunn...but just ok.
