The Coffeesmith

Really good coffee as you would expect from a coffee shop but what was even more amazing was their brown sugar bacon croissant.. One of the best breakfast sandwiches I have had. The ambiance is typical coffee shop and service is prompt.

This place is fantastic! I ordered the Butter Pecan Latte in house. It was so delicious & their breakfast is tasty. I don't know what sauce they put on their breakfast sandwiches but it's dangerously good! Perfect atmosphere to bring friends & have a great morning.

5 stars for sure. We are about moving to here to live so we decided to try some coffee shop over here. This is the first place we try. Have nothing to complain about this place. Cozy vibe, friendly staff, clean, clear, delicious drinks v.v…

The Coffesmith is a solid cafe with free wifi and industrial design. There's free wifi - which makes it a good spot for studying and socializing.

Their ice lattes are good and decently priced but their specialty drinks run pretty expensive. Their French Toast muffin was decent as well.

I recommend Coffeesmith but there are some other interesting options in the Des Moines metro.

First time here and perhaps my last time. I arrived about 7:40am and there were 2 people in front of me. I ordered house coffee—black—and a maple bacon ranch crossaint (AMAZING). From the get-go, the other patrons were staring at me like they were seeing a Martian...let's just say I didn't feel entirely welcome as a person of color in this Waukee coffee shop. The positive thing about the experience was that someone complimented my rainbow Iowa coffee mug (from home) and that I beat the rush, because from 7:57am til I left at 9am, there were at least 7 people in line at any point in time. The coffee isn't good black, it's quite bitter and might taste good with a bunch of milk and sugar. Cute farmhouse/industrial theme, but overall, not my cup of tea, unfortunately.

they did a custom request off menu without complaint. service was slow but the drinks were good. nice staff and a good vibe inside

I love this place so much and am so sad I live far enough away that this isn’t my daily haunt, because I know it would be. Anytime I have the opportunity to go, I take it. I love their americano but the dark roast black coffee is also a delicious treat. I get my sugar intake from the Almond Patties. If you like Dutch letters, these will be your new go-to pastry.

Probably the best coffee in town, with a nice selection of small eats. They are always packed during prime hours which makes quite conversation difficult. Good location in a budding area.

Best coffee!!! Love the Ron Swanson with extra cheese sauce!!! Just wish you were open on Sunday! There are no good local coffee shops open on Sundays and would love it if you guys were!!!! Recommend this place to everyone!!! Also got the cutest handmade keychain from here!!

This is a great little coffee shop! The employees are friendly, the prices are reasonable, the environment is cozy, and the drinks are great! Oh, and it's a local place compared to a big chain! Just about everything you could be looking for. I recommend stopping in for the first time or the tenth!
