This is one of my absolute favorite coffee shops in Iowa City! The drinks are always unique with amazing flavor profiles, paired along with their personally roasted beans. The shop is very cozy with a lot of natural light. I love to come every Friday for Espresso After Class!

Super cute coffee house. We went to the walk up window.. The barista suggested a lovely latte. My husband thoroughly enjoyed it. If we were close to day drink again we would definitely go back. Your coffee comes in a glass jar if you take it back you get a dollar off. Recommended.

I have never found any other coffee place in Iowa better than here. Here’s the combination of Comfy atmosphere & Perfect coffee & Warm staff members. They serve a cup of memory, not only a coffee.

Best coffee in Iowa City! Michael and Connor have created an amazing space for not just incredible coffee, but also a beautiful community. The baristas are friendly and knowledgeable, the coffees rotate from specialty roasters around the country, and the vibes are always at 100. Daydrink is a must stop in Iowa City and I always make it a priority to go in when I’m visiting from Chicago. Not to mention the Gettin Figgy with it is the most incredible flavored latte/matcha drink I’ve ever had. Support local, support Daydrink!

Barista was friendly, however the seasonal creamsicle latte was not good & tasted spoiled? The lattes all come with oat milk & inside a jar with an extra & mandatory $1 for it ($7 total). Unfortunately, I found the the plant presence very overwhelming.

The perfect coffee and love their use of glass cups to serve it. The plant shop is also cool and we enjoyed our coffee surrounded by beautiful plants.

Absolutely obsessed with Daydrink, not only is it located inside a small local plant shop (that’s also amazing), but the espresso drinks are fantastic. I try to get something different every time I go but my top two for sure are the figgy and their seasonal pumpkin spice. Today I tried their dreamsicle hot and oh my, SO good. Prices are so good too. $5 for a coffee drink? And it’s delicious every time? Count me in. Makes my $8 Scooters order yesterday feel pathetic. I hope this place stays around forever. My favorite afternoon pick me up and the coffee place I take all my visiting friends and family.

This brand-new coffee shop provides high-quality drinks. The “Get figgy with it” is def my favorite and I believe everyone would love it. Plus, coldbrews are also awesome. Just give it a try and you won’t get disappointed! Highly recommended.

Was in Iowa City and stopped by for a quick drink. Ended up sitting and staying for a while. Be aware there's not a lot of seating, but the comfy factor is through the roof. The drinks were delicious. My wife got the Peanut Brittle Latte which she said was the second-best coffee drink she's had all year -> we live in Hawaii where coffee culture is huge, so take that as you will. I ordered the Fig latte, forgetting the exact name, with less sweetness and it was perfect. Bought a jar of beans and have made two aeropress cups so far, both fantastic. Would recommend Daydrink to everyone!

When thinking on what to write about this place, I just can't get around believing that it's one of the best places you can patron... seriously.
The people are great.
The atmosphere is great (even though they play Shrek a lot).
The coffee? Great.
Genuinely, I have learned more about coffee from these guys than anywhere else in the world - it's almost kind of a negative because now I can't go to places that are everywhere (i.e., Starbucks) because they just don't taste right to me anymore. Matter of fact, Daydrink does such a great job with their coffee that I don't even consider it to be the same drink as something you'd get from other ~popular~ places. Daydrink transcends. Daydrink has opened up my third (coffee) eye. And I think that's special.
On top of all of this, it's somewhere that is open to everyone. I have been many times and I have never seen a person come in and feel like they're not welcome there - to one up that, I don't think there's been a person that goes to grab a coffee that leaves without feeling like a friend. These are the homies, and these homies know how to do it right.

p.s., I also met the tallest person I've ever seen at Daydrink... Keep an eye out for Ed, man's the most gentle giant in the game.
(and tell him I said hi)
