There was very little of the sundried tomato spread (which cost extra). I also found it odd that they charged more for the bowl over the wrap, and I thought it was overpriced for what I got. Not many tables inside for dining in. Also, the menu posted on the website did not have current prices, which are now higher.

Food/Drink: Pastry -- Cream Cheese Coffee Cake (Perfection, this sweet treat was soft, moist, and full of flavor. Rating = 9.3/10.) Drink #1 -- Hot Vanilla Latte (Delish, not a big hot drink fan but this was an exception to the rule! Rating = 8.4/10.) Drink #2 -- Iced Vanilla Latte (Wonderful, really all I could ask for out of my favorite coffee order, not to sweet and excellent espresso taste. Rating = 8.4/10.) Service: No complaints on the service. The shop wasn't too busy so our order came out as expected with little wait! Ambiance: The location is unique - located in a neighborhood amongst what appears to be primarily college housing units. The building itself is really cool - albeit, quite small - and is decorated/themed with a lot of intention. The shop has a retro vibe with a VCR tape collection, nostalgic children games, and other late '90s / early '00s antiques lining the walls. Overall, this spot is one of our favorites in the Iowa City area, and we will definitely be return customers!

It can accommodate a lot of students without ever feeling cramped, and there are tons of outlets which is always a huge win when you're studying. It's the perfect place to get work done alone or catch up with friends over lunch. I haven't tried a ton from the food menu yet, but the Caesar wrap is so good. They also have one of the best iced matcha lattes in Iowa City. The staff is amazing too. Everyone is so nice, cheerful, and genuinely helpful, which makes the whole place feel really welcoming. The music is always great, the space is decorated so nicely, and I love the pencil wall. The bathrooms are clean and well kept, and they really have everything you could possibly need. They even offer a student discount, which makes it an even better spot for college students. Definitely one of my favorite places to go in Iowa City!

I enjoy that they have a bottle buy back service for the fresh juices as well. While one could feel like it's a bit on the pricey side, it feels like a good investment in health when there are no better choices to fuel your body. Also- Make sure to catch them at the farmers market!

I had the buffalo chicken wrap and mango pineapple smoothie. I enjoyed the buffalo flavor of the wrap.

Still amazing and the only coffee shop in the area open past 7pm! Love the food and drinks.read more

#1 Fireplace #2 Late hours…read more#3 Tons of tables #4 Patio space - I can't wait for spring, summer and fall to get here Have been coming here in mornings for coffee on the way into work and coming back in evenings to get some work done after dinner and the gym. The late hours here makes for a great alternative to the hubbub at Java House and there's usually parking easily found here. Great coffee, Kickapoo from Wisconsin, and americanos! I've been working my way through the loose-tea menu. Earl Grey is a staple for me and the blend here has a strong flavor. The Rooibos Chai is very good and doesn't have the Rooibos after taste that my tastebuds do not like. My only recommendation would be a dish to hold the leaves after an adequate amount of steeping time. I've taken to using the to-go coffee lids to hold the mesh strainer and tea leaves. I haven't had a chance to partake in the beer and wine selection, but hope to soon. There is a quite and extensive list to choose from! Staff has always been friendly and the background music perfect in the evenings. I love that the tables are larger than the usual small cafe tables. I can have a giant textbook and a notebook spread out while working. The loveseat in front of the fireplace is popular. One of these days i'll get to enjoy with a good book and a cup of coffee.

I love the counter service concept and being able to pick my pastry out of the case before finding a seat. I ordered the breakfast burrito, a lemon poppyseed muffin, and a latte.

And MAN was the breakfast burrito delish - I adore when breakfast items have a hearty serving of avocado, and the burrito struck the perfect balance of avo and egg goodness.

What a great drive-thru experience. Prior to this visit I was a Scooter's virgin. Crazy, I know…read more I've lived in Iowa how long and have never been to a Scooter's. I pulled into the drive-thru around 1:15pm on a Thursday afternoon. With no other customers behind me in line, I told the employee I had never been to Scooter's and asked about what she recommended. She was super friendly and gave me several ideas. Ultimately I chose the Iced Turtle Latte, but had it Almond Joy flavored instead. I learned that you can ask for all sorts flavors that mimic your favorite candy bar. Neat. The drink was very tasty and the whipped cream and chocolate drizzle was perfectly executed. Scooter's as a much bigger menu than I thought. Can we talk about the cute sticker? I didn't know this was a Scooter's signature thing until I researched their website. As a self-proclaimed sticker lover and long-time collector of stickers, this is very cool. I definitely plan to return. I feel like I'm semi shopping local because Scooter's is a Nebraska based business. :) Outstanding customer service, large variety of items on the menu, competitive prices. Don't forget to tip the employees. Recommend.
