Don't miss out on this hidden gem! Was in town for the weekend on a girls' trip and we decided to stop here. And I'm glad we did! I had an iced mocha and it was perfect.... Not too overly sweet and not mostly ice. And $4.95 for a large.... Can't beat that. The staff was very sweet as well

I’ve never had one bad drink from Backgrounds, and I’ve gotten A LOT! I like how the coffee beans are freshly roasted and ground. The atmosphere is also super welcoming, and the baristas are all very kind. I love to hang out at Backgrounds when I need a quiet place to work or to meet up with friends. They also have the most unique handmade gifts that are all made by Iowa artisans!

Freindly awesome little Coffee/Gift/Book Shop. They offer a variety of drinks hot and cold, caffeine or not and breakfast items. The book selection small but fantastic and all Iowa authors! They spotlight a local vendor monthly this months being Erickson Farms 🚜
Overall Excellent! We will return.

This is a perfectly charming coffeeshop with a great atmosphere for meeting friends, quiet working, or just hanging out. All their lattes are AMAZING! They are so creative with their flavors and all the baristas are all super friendly. I especially love their books- they are all written by authors with Iowa Backgrounds!

Love this place! Super cozy and charming, filled with character! In love with all the drinks especially, the Iced Lattes! Always a happy and friendly atmosphere! I never stop craving a Backgrounds Coffee :)

Denise Pitman

I have always loved hot coffee. It wasn’t until I tried Iced Lattes at Backgrounds that i discovered how much I enjoy cold Espresso lattes. All the specialty drinks I have tried have been delicious!

If passing through town, this is a must stop. Absolutely magnificent ambience, gives such a cosy cottage feel, with incredibly friendly staff. The pumpkin spice latte was bomb aswell.

Anthony Allen
