The later might have been located previously on US 71 before moving to this location. Or at least that's what my Father re members. Dad and I recently stopped here for gas and a comfort break. After "draining our radiators" (as my Mom would have put it), we left with snacks and a small bottle of Templeton Rye. We were also charmed by the friendly faces that work here. We should have stopped at the very nearby Templeton Distillery, but we were lazy and in too much of a hurry to get down the road towards Council Bluffs on our Father-Son road trip. Good thing that Waspy's has a decent liquor area, of which aged variations of Templeton Rye were for sale.

We had croissant sandwiches with chicken salad mixes in the middle that were awesome. They made a lemon orzo pasta and cucumber dish with scotcheroos and cookies and a charcuterie board. We came for a private event so i'm assuming these aren't typically on the menu, however the bakery made all the food for us and if their menu tastes anything like that, i'm assuming it's wonderful! The team was super kind and considerate and everyone was going back for seconds and thirds of coffee. They have a beautiful back patio to sit on and the whole place just gave such a feeling of home and warmth. 10/10 recommend!

Disappointed... I came here for restaurant week to try their Thai Menu. It looked good online and…read morethought I'd give them a try. The Cafe has been on my list for a while now. Disappointed to say the least, I came in the back door not realized there was a correct door and was rudely cut off by other patrons at the front desk. I had to wait several minutes to be waited on and the place had plenty of spots. Maybe because I was a party of 1... they didn't seem to care. After I shared what drink I wanted, I learned they were out... fine no problem. I asked about the Thai specials, the waitress was clueless. I had to ask for the restaurant week menu and ask about the specials. She said they looked good but couldn't describe them and hasn't tasted them. I got the salad on special, but get this... they were out of the main restaurant week special... such a let down. The ambiance was mixed, one corner was a cute date night the other corner was crying children. All dimly lit and outdated decor. The whole experience was off, I ended up leaving after my one drink and salad. I hope to give this place a second chance sometime but hope they aren't out of dishes and I can get a trained server. Maybe another night for sure!

The chefs clearly love experimenting, offering a creative fusion of flavors that blend different cuisines beautifully. Whether it's a twist on a classic dish or something completely unexpected, everything is prepared with care and a true sense of innovation. Me and my significant other both ordered the Feta Cheese w/ Honey, Herbs, and Pistachios + Bread as our appetizer and for main dish we ordered Korean Steak & Egg that consist of soy/ginger marinated hanger steak with kimchi fried rice, and arugula with sweet chili aioli, and sunny side egg on top. The only thing I was a bit disappointed was that the kimchi didn't have the actual kick and true kimchi flavor but it was still good! Beyond the food, what really sets The Cafe apart is the warm and attentive customer service. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and always happy to make recommendations or accommodate special requests. You can tell they genuinely care about creating a great dining experience for every guest. If you're looking for a place that combines delicious, inventive food with top-notch hospitality, The Cafe is a must-visit. It's one of those rare spots where you'll leave satisfied, and already planning your next visit to see what's new on the menu!

The first time I came to Coffee 7, I brought my great uncle. Let me tell you a little bit about my…read moregreat uncle-he hated "the Avengers" it was too loud, he couldn't stand "Lord of the Rings" it was too dark, and he can't understand why anyone would pay money to see "the Lego Movie" he said it was dumb. BUT he loved the doughnuts at Coffee 7 and he's a tough crowd to impress. So I'd say they're doing something right if he was happy. Cute little shop with cute decorations. Kind of small but it's quaint and isn't too busy. The espresso is a little weak for my taste, but the drip coffee was nice and strong. The syrups tasted a little cheap and like medicine. They also only have one size for every drink, so the lattes end up tasting just like syrup because they don't put much espresso in for the size of cup. Overall, I was impressed and I think they're worth giving a try! They'll just continue getting better.

I got an iced coffee and my wife ordered hot. Coffee was great as well. This is a small coffee shop, but has great service and food. Definitely worth a try.
