Great coffee for those needing a Latte fix in Ottumwa…read more I had a coffee from The Vine recently while in Ottumwa for work. I have to admit to being a Starbucks junkie normally. I like knowing not only that I will get the same drink every time I order, no matter where I go in the country, but also that I have a place to go to get away from it all and come out smelling divinely like coffee. The Vine prepared a Pumpkin Spice Latte that rivals those I've gotten from the 'bucks. I found myself falling into the cozy warmth of fall with my first sip, kind of like that sensation of flopping back into a leaf pile when I was a kid and fall was at its peak. Find your cozy at The Vine the next time you're in Ottumwa!

How have I not yet written a review for Iris? Our first…read moreexperience here was in 2022 - either the week before or after tulip time, I can't remember... What I DO remember is this: This particular day brought intermittent rain, which was especially stressful with two toddlers in tow. We walked to Iris in hopes of finding a dry spot to sit for awhile as our accommodations weren't ready for us quite yet. Upon arriving, we realized the door was locked and they'd closed up a few minutes before. However - when the staff saw us, they promptly invited us in. I protested because we wanted to stay awhile, not just grab and go, and they met my protests with warm hospitality. We ended up staying and playing for at least an hour or more while they cleaned the space, and kept inviting other shelter-seeking customers into their business as well. I was truly so delighted and relieved by their kindness. Not to mention their coffee is TRULY excellent. Roasted in house, served up by a knowledgeable staff who truly loves what they do, and so many creative rotating seasonal offerings. We ended up getting to chat briefly with the owner when we overheard her mention our favorite coffeeshop from our home town. So many cool little connections and crossovers. We've made it a point to go out of our way to visit any time we can, and every time we've experienced the same warm hospitality and excellence.

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!
