Let's start with the drinks- the breve was good (5/5), and Cherry/almond lemonade was lowkey the…read morebest lemonade ever!!! And, the strawberry matcha latte tasted like watered down grassy milk with a memory of strawberry (it was one of the worst matches lattes I've ever had). The ambiance was lacking because of the crush of peeps for the tulip festival, but the drinks were made quickly! However, when my lovely sister asked for a drink that was sold out and then asked for the breve the gal gave her attitude that she didn't want one of the "tulip" themed drinks instead... if someone knows what they want, let them order it!

Service for soup ok however service for an iced Americano was slow. Usual vibe in the place so believe with much more competition in town this place needs to step up their game.

I traveled to Pella, IA for a volleyball tournament and discovered this gem as I searched for a…read moregood coffee shop. Smokey Row had a great atmosphere and wonderful staff. It was a bit busy with all the volleyball players and fans, but the staff pushed through the rush and did it with smiles. I ordered a Sweet Georgia Brown Mocha and it was delicious! It was sweet enough to tame the coffee taste for those of us that like that, and the hint of honey was amazing. With good coffee and a great ambiance outside and inside, Smokey Row Coffee makes for a great pit stop if you're going through or staying in Pella. They also have some great merch for purchase if you want a souvenir.

I ordered a mocha, my niece - a cortado, my sister - a dirty chai, and my mother - plain coffee. Each of us liked our choices. Both my sister and I thought ours were very good! My mocha was probably the best I've ever had at a coffee shop. I'll return if ever I'm in Pella again. :)

This place is literally legendary. Home of the famous Dutch letters and all kinds of Dutch…read moregoodness, Jaarsma Bakery is the kind of place that takes you back to the old school in the best possible way. With a staff dressed in traditional Dutch outfits and fresh pastries filling an entire room, Jaarsma smells and looks about as close to bakery heaven as you can get. The sheer amount of pastries, breads, cookies, and treats is impressive. You can also grab various foods and sides, along with a great collection of Dutch products that won't disappoint. I arrived around midday, and some of the favorites were already gone or running low, which probably tells you everything you need to know. I was on a mission for the letter "S" pastries and the cream-filled bars, and they absolutely delivered. Since I had flown into Pella on a private plane, I also ordered some thank-you treats to bring home for a few supportive people in my life. It was the perfect place to find something unique and memorable. If you come to Pella, you come here. It's really that simple. Do not miss Jaarsma....your stomach will thank you!

Jaarsma is deserving of this 4-star review based on its size, selection and general quality. Please…read moreunderstand that's not a bad thing. They did a nice job on the Dutch letter and Chicago Cubs frosted sugar cookie that I tried. I did find the place to be overrated compared to the mass' reviews and the legend that it has outside of Pella. But no doubt, you kind of "have to" go there if you're in Pella. Hopefully a 5-star experience awaits you.
