The Slow Down Coffee Co.

Great local coffee shop where we love to hold casual meetings. Something for everyone from coffee to tea to pastries!

One of my favorite spots to sit and drink coffee with my friends, highly recommend if you're in the Highlands Park area

Loved it! Awesome coffee shop. Great feel, wonderful environment. Community art on the walls from the local high school. Book club at nights. Talked with the owner. Wish there were more coffee shops like this.

Tasty almond latte and pastry! Take time to browse the selection of books, plants, coffee accessories, and art for sale. Also a great spot for picking up locally produced foods!

Pleasant atmosphere, friendly staff. Plenty of vegan and vegetarian options.

The Slow Down Co. is the loveliest feel good place where you can get the best coffee in the universe served by the sweetest people on the planet!! My mind and spirit are always renewed after a trip to this precious gem 💎

This is definitely an out of the way place where time can stop and enjoy a coffee. Then, when you are prepared, you can go back out into the real world.

Excellent coffee, nice atmosphere, friendly staff. So great to have a locally owned coffee shop in the neighborhood. Only thing I would suggest is that the portion size was a little small, the price was comparable to what is common for the size so not over priced by today's standards at all, I would just prefer a larger portion. 😁 I will be back for sure!

Great vibes, great coffee, they sell a small collection of "banned" books, have some very soft shirts and sweatshirts, cute mugs, and even some recycled or reusable paper products with seeds to plant when you're done. I especially like the featured artwork and the five sort of distinct seating areas to accommodate someone working on their own, having a meeting over coffee, or just catching up with some friends. This is my go-to coffee shop in DSM, so try slowing down for a bit and take a visit.

Best part is you can go next door and get great donuts and such to enjoy with your coffee.
