iced coffee in a plastic cup

Staff was very kind and the interior is very colorful/unique, however, I ordered an caramel frappé and it tasted like blended ice and caramel, I wouldn't go back for coffee but maybe a bakery item or a burrito!

The Arnold's Perk Coffee Shop is as cute as a button. It looks like an old general store and is an easy walk to the Central Emporium and to the Amusement Park. I initially came in for coffee, but ended up hanging around their living room for a bit, and adding a delicious scone for my trouble. The down home atmosphere with free wi-fi, available PCs, games, reading material and comfy couches invite you to stay awhile and relax. They also serve sandwiches and smoothies, in addition to their tempting baked goods and fair trade and organic coffees.

coffee is always a good idea

I love this place. I had an everything bagel with lots of cream cheese. Sometimes I get my turkey avocado bacon sandwich with a fruit cup or chips. Its amazing!

Selection of coffees! Unlimited refills!

Really nice place to grab a coffee and breakfast sandwich right in Arnold's Park! They have a wide selection of coffee drinks as well as breakfast sandwiches, bowls, and pastries! I loved my breakfast sandwich with eggs and cheese on a bagel! If you opt for regular coffee, they have 8-10 different kinds/flavors to choose from with free refills! The inside is super cute with lots of funny coffee-themed wall decor and Central-Perk inspired seating. They also have quite a bit of outdoor seating. Both times I went on a recent trip the line was pretty long but food and drinks came out relatively fast.

Golfing while sipping coffee and eating a tasty treat.

This is a great spot for a coffee break or a spot to get work done. The decor is eclectic and fun. They have games to play, although my husband and I brought cards to play while drinking our coffee. We had an almond bar that was yummy, the cold brew, and a smelly cat (hazelnut + vanilla latte). It's a nice spot for resting your feet for a bit when you've been walking around taking in the sites and shopping.

Treats and drinks!

Delicious Almond bar and unique drinks. They also feature a full breakfast menu. Quite cozy with a couch and a kind of retro/antique theme expressed through signs and color choices.

It's the building with the yellow awning!

Let me start out saying, you will go into the national debt getting a coffee here. This place makes the new Starbucks in town look cheap. However, the coffee here is worth EVERY PENNY! Whenever I am in town and everyday that I am in town, I go here in the morning to get the Smokin' Blonde. It has caramel, milk chocolate and vanilla in it (I think?). The inside is very 70's old school themed, but there is plenty of space to sit and enjoy. There is also outdoor seating. What can I say...I'm obsessed!

Lots of pastries to choose from
Chad J.

We were getting sick of the free hotel coffee and thanks to all you Yelpers we found this place. The brewed coffee is self serve and there were six selections to choose from. I tried two and both were hot and delicious. The mocha latte with soy was good also. Bonus: they sell day old pastries for 1/2 price. I had a coffee cake

Been visiting this coffee bar for years. The staff is very friendly and make fantastic coffee drinks both hot and cold. Their drip coffee doesn't disappoint and they always have a variety of delicious flavors as well as great regular coffee. I haven't tried their food, however, I have seen the waitstaff bringing it to other patrons and it always looks delicious. Definitely recommend for some great coffee in Okoboji!

Newly remodeled this year
