Savor The Rise

We drove from DSM after seeing a post about a cake they prepared--not knowing anything about the other foods they offered. We ended up not getting any cake (it was 9am) but had breakfast instead. Everything was WONDERFUL! We got a perfectly flakey tomato/gruyère pastry, the roasted red pepper tomato soup, and the Little Italy toast. Holy flavor combo--Wow! We also got a chocolate chip cookie, a cardamom rose latté, and a honey wheat sourdough loaf to take home. Look, I don't even like bread but I couldn't leave without it. The flavor, the chew, the crumb, the crust...I'm blown away. Whoever is coming up with these flavor amalgamations is a genius! No wonder it was so packed. I also love the big gathering table in the middle. It's a great place for big groups or a bunch of strangers to come

Submitting 5 stars for only two visits (once on a Monday morning and once on a Saturday morning) should typically appear as naive. However, our first visit was an early Monday morning, about 90 minutes after STR opened the door. The energy of the environment flowed perfectly with the employee's mountain high introduction and salesmanship. On our second visit, we were the first customers to enter at 0800 exactly. We had no idea that a flood of families and solo customers would almost similar to a horde would appear within an hour. It all makes perfect sense. The employees, the location, the music, the lighting, the seating, the energy and ok..ok..ok the drinks and the food are not what you would ever expect out of a 16k population town in Iowa. There is a reason we drove 40 minutes round tr

Such a cute little shop! The cinnamon roll latte and raspberry pastry that I had were wonderful. The barista that waited on me was so kind and patient with me asking questions and giving me recommendations. Will be back the next time I’m in town. Thank you for such a great experience! ☕️

If you've never been, you're missing out. The best coffee, homemade baked goods, and service in town. A wonderful local escape with a comfortable environment and warm friendly staff. Savor The Rise is more than a bakery or coffee shop it's an experience. If you haven't been, I suggest you sit in the window on a sunny day and sip on a cortado. The music, the conversation, the amazing coffee and service, but most importantly the community. Thank you for making Indianola great!

I went in this morning and got a latte, “the dad” croissant, 2 danishes and 2 cinnamon rolls and all of it was fantastic! I forgot to take a picture of the rest of the food! Amazing atmosphere! I will definitely be coming back!
