Our waitress was super friendly as were all the staff I interacted with during my visit. Everyone seemed genuinely happy to be there and wanted us to have a great experience. I was very pleasantly surprised by that. The restaurant itself was pretty plain, but clean. The focus is definitely on their food and service. I had the special of the day, which was a chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes, and a house made roll for like $10. It was delicious. Everything on the plate seemed made in house, and the roll was hot out of the oven. Their pie case was filled with house made pies, so I had to have a slice. I got raspberry cream, which isn't one I see very often, but do like a lot. It was excellent as expected. By the checkout they had pies, chicken pot pies, bread, and other things to go which also looked amazing. This one is definitely worth going out of your way to try!

When I walked in, I was quickly greeted and brought to a booth and brought by coffee right away. The coffee was freshly made and was just what I needed for my afternoon pick me up. I asked the server, Mandy, about their fruit pies and she informed me they didn't have any because of a large order but brought some cinnicenters (box filled with just the center of cinnamon rolls) over and WOW... they were good. All in all, this place was great and a cute stop! The servers were super friendly, the place was cute and the coffee/cinnamon rolls were great. Definitely worth a stop!

A charming little downtown as well as a great location on the corner. I walked in and was met with small town hospitality and a great smile. The coffee shop was quaint and cozy, and the kind of place that I would like to spend hours had I had the time. Lots of selections and everything sounded good, but I settled on a special that was made for me. It was a cherry Pepsi Americano float. It was delicious and packed full of cherry flavor. (They can also use other sodas!) I also got the lemon poppyseed bread, which made me happy. Next time I come through Iola or even make a day trip, I will definitely stop in and spend some time. They also have other food items beyond pastries and baked goods. Go grab a bite and taste for yourself!

If you are going there for breakfast I recommend ordering the "Mess" and their cinnamon rolls are very good as well. Recently stopped there on steak night.

This is an off the beaten path gem in my opinion.

Sometimes when you make a wrong turn, you end up making a turn in a better direction. What an INVITING space right across the street from the Franklin County Courthouse. A welcoming, open space with high ceilings and modern decor, the Corner Market is offering up morning and afternoon specialties, with a full bar to boot! Like I said, I was just in need of Wi-Fi, but a cup of coffee was welcome to ride shotgun. A large cup of dark roast for just $2.50? Seattle would charge you double that, and their dark roast isn't even as good as the Corner Market's! An array of fresh-baked muffins teases the eye at the counter, so hey, I threw in for a blueberry muffin. BEST muffin I have ever had! (not like I keep records, but it was AMAZING!) Claire (sp?) was super friendly, shared the Wi-Fi password with me, and delivered big city product with small town charm. The space is socially distanced, has comfortable options, and even a fireplace. The menu has a number of standard selections and the pricing is right - but the VALUE is huge! Park on the street, walk on in, get one to go, or stay and soak up a great coffeehouse experience.
