Cafe Paradiso

Absolutely love this place! Always fun going in to get coffee that isn’t overly sweet.

What a gem! Brilliant coffee, great selection of other drinks and food. Always amazing music...some of my favorite nights listening to music have been in that wonderful room!

Seriously the best coffee I've ever had.

Really great Lattes! The staff are so kind and pleasant to talk to. It's a very unique atmosphere as well with beautiful art work and a calm vibe.

Wonderful caffeinated drinks. Try the mint cappuccino and mocha or really just about any drink. They will try to make any drink just as you want, which is hard to do, but really appreciated. It's right on the FF square which means you can enjoy your drinks under the shady trees if you want. There is usually a line which can be slow, so be prepared for that. They also serve excellent pastries and cookies. Ps the baristas are really cool.

Excellent service! Delicious chocolate croissant and barista explained different drink options. Love the atmosphere!

Their morning brews are wonderful. Extremely knowledgeable baristas. Their food is good too.

I enjoy going to some of their events. There is so much diversity I can introduce my kids to.

Fantastic little spot.Great cortida/ cappuccino. Ryan and Cameron , and Sacha all make such great drinks with so much care. Also our new apprentice with her bindi and Armand. Lovely spot. Try the cran orange scones!

My mochanut latte was so perfect today! And came so quickly! Can’t wait till we’re indoors and can tip without them having to ask. This place is the best of the heart of town.

Coffee so good that I took their coffee and a Bodum to Italy for a 2 month visit, and it it was better than what I got in cafes there. Great music: even Nationally known groups come here - well known as a great music venue for performers for its hospitality and sophisticated, appreciative audience. Consistently Voted Best Coffee and Best Cook in Iowa. I'm addicted to it!
