    Awesome experience! The owner has a passion for his coffee and it shows. Took 10 minutes to explain to a beginner how they make their coffees and came away feeling like I had as much a tour as a good cup of coffee.

    Rolling down I20 in central Iowa and needing a good coffee and some beans to bring back home. I found Far Cup Coffee and a quick look at the reviews said this would be the place. Quick exit at Waterloo and into Fat Cup. I intended to have a quick discussion with the owner about his beans but instead walked out with two bags of beans, a wonderful cappuccino, and a great education on the roasting process. The owner is cantankerous, opinionated, lively, and fun and I loved our conversation.

    Opposed to chain/franchise coffee shops, we are always on the lookout for independently owned. The owner was so accommodating and informed us of the multiple options... Cows milk, almond milk, soy milk, and coconut milk available. Hot, iced, and blended coffee offered. (Almond whip cream is available as well.) Great tea menu. Live music was advertised. The establishment was so clean (as were the restrooms) and had plenty of seating. (Think: I have a lot of work to do and would love to enjoy a cup or few of coffee/tea while doing it.) Y'all... this is hands down the best coffee I've ever had. Worth exiting 218 for!

    Nope. Brown water and a dusty tea bag won't make it. Not worth the time or money, and its always too noisy.

    My wife and I stopped by the First Street Sidecar location in Cedar Falls this past weekend…read more Unfortunately, this location does not appear on Yelp, so I am leaving a review for the College Hill location (which I have visited in the past). Here are our thoughts below! Food/Drink: Monster Cookie (Yum! This cookie was HUGE, soft, and delicious. Rating = 8/10). Hot Cinnamon Roll Latte (This tasted nearly identical to a warm, gooey, cinnamon roll! Be warned - it is a very sweet beverage. Rating = 7.7/10). Iced Hazelnut Latte (YES! This is basically almost as good as it gets when it comes to a latte. Absolutely scrumdidilyumptious. Rating = 9/10). Service: The service here could not have been better! Our barista's name was Brianna, and she had a phenomenal attitude. She looked excited to help us out and appears to love her job. Her passion for her job truly shined through during our time in the shop. Ambiance: As mentioned above, this review is based on our visit to the First Street location in Cedar Falls. It has a much different vibe than the College Hill location. The First Street location is not quite as "homey" as the College Hill cafe and has more of a coffee chain feel (not as much unique character that I typically enjoy with local coffee brands). The College Hill location, on the other hand, has much more personality. It is an excellent place to get some work done, read a book, or meet up with friends! All in all - we undoubtedly had a 5-star experience at Sidecar this past weekend. Excellent food and drink and some of the best service we've received in a while!

    White chocolate latte was delicious, smooth not too strong or sweet. Cinnamon roll was the gooey…read morekind in the middle, loved it. Cute shop, staff were very friendly and service was fast. I'll be back probably go through the drive through tomorrow!
