I love how they can be customized however we want. My favorites are strawberry n cream, cookies & coffee, s'mores and chocolate iced. They simply melt in the mouth and I keep going back to this place like a faithful puppy :-D For those who feel this place is pricey, I'd suggest to use their coupons either here on Yelp or on the website. I've gotten 25% off my order at least twice so far.

We visited on a Friday afternoon around 2 pm and I was glad some of the baked goods were still available. I quickly picked up a few items: Dutch letters, almond horns, almond tarts, and blueberry filled Dutch windmills. The first three items have a strong but not overpowering almond flavor. I especially liked the almond horns which had a crunch but chewy and buttery texture. I also really liked the windmills and wished I had ordered the raspberry ones as well. It was buttery and flakey with just the right about of blueberry cream cheese filling.

I had gotten the "iced toasted white chocolate" coffee earlier in the week, and figured this selection wouldn't be very good, since the white chocolate one was ok, but didn't jump out at me with the flavor. If I get coffee any time after noon, I save it until the next morning to drink, so I don't have sleep issues. I get all my iced coffees without any ice. Dunkin' has STEVIA for its customers, which is still fairly rare in the fast food industry. I placed my mobile order with the stevia and cream(instead of oat milk). The flavor is definitely a winner for me. I may try it with the suggested oat milk the next time I get it. As with most fast food places, I strongly suggest you download their app and use it. Nearly every fast food company rewards their loyal customers on these apps, and some rewards are sizable. As for the price for this medium coffee, I consider $2.89 plus tax, as a very low price compared to other coffee places. I got it in the drive through. The only issue with this, was the fact that it was a very long wait, especially for the time of day-1:40pm on a Saturday. MarcyDiner'sTantrumScale 5/5- NoScreamingKids.

Staff is your typical assortment of friendly adults and high school kids. This is my go to place for meats as they often have great deals and high quality products. For everyday groceries, hyvee is on the pricey side but if your budget can handle it, this is a great place to shop! Never had a bad experience at this hyvee. The picture I included in this review is one of what's typically called "puppy chow" in the Midwest but it made me laugh that they call it "people chow." The main reason I include it is to show the quality of hyvee produced items. If you've ever tried to make puppy chow, it's a messy endeavor. Take a good look at how uniform and clean those boxes look, it's a good example that the increase in price tends to lean toward better items. Overall this is a better than average hyvee! And as the only grocery store on the West side of Ames, it's a good one!

Taco Johns, I love you. I do…read more When I think back on the best experiences of my life, my first trip to Iowa ranks in the top 3. I ate a lot of taco Johns' potato oles when I was there, so this place holds a special place in the nostalgia center of my brain. I can't describe to you to depth of adulation I have for the potato oles. I could probably write a sonnet, but I'll never try... because I don't want to know for sure that it's in me to write a sonnet about what is essentially a seasoned tater tot. Suffice it to say, though, that I had never before, nor have I ever since, found such a delightful snack at any fast food restaurant that I've ever been to. Now, this is a big deal. Maybe not for you, but definitely for me. In a dark world where places like McDonald's flavor their french fries with some kind of secret beef extract, and places like Taco Bell have nary a vegetarian option in sight (I'm cautious of their beans, regardless of what they tell me), Taco Johns is a big shining lantern lighting the way for vegetarians everywhere. Except in California where we don't have Taco Johns. For the sake of complete transparency, though, I've never had anything else here... Come to think of it, I've never really even looked at the menu. Do they even sell tacos here? I don't know. I just know that Dan told me I was going to love these potato things, and then he ordered some for me. After that, I didn't need a menu. However, this might mean that there is really nothing else here I can eat. I also don't really care. There are other restaurants in Ames where I can get a salad.
