★★★★★ 5.0 Austin Forte · Feb 2026

Best coffeehouse around. Been coming here for years. Work, family, friends, solo time. You'll definitely run into a few busy days if you're a regular (where seating is hard to come by) but the fast service, quality and variety of food and drink along with the warm vibes makes for a great experience. They always rotate a timely and varied seasonal menu and have a fun selection of local curios. If they expanded to the space next door, offered a few gluten/dairy-free savory food items, we would probably never go to Starbucks again.

This is my go to place to grab a coffee with a friend or get some work done. Consistently good, and a really solid breakfast sandwich.

★★★★★ 5.0 jonmarkheaner · Oct 2024

Delicious coffee, unique wood tables. I love the ambiance here! This is such a fun, unique coffee shop! A good amount of seating to have a conversation, do some work or just sip some espresso! I can’t wait to come back and try some other drinks and goodies!

★★★★★ 5.0 Harold Kampbell · Jan 2026

I always look for local shops when traveling and The Coffeesmith did not disappoint. Fantastic, friendly service was my experience. I enjoyed a latte with Rosemary Brown Sugar Syrup and it was light, aromatic, and superb. Next time I am in town, I will need to go back and try the Coke and Cold Brew! Recommend a visit if in Des Moines and if a local, make it a mainstay.

We love the Coffeesmith. Very nice seasonal flavors and standard drinks- they’re always consistent. And I’m not kidding when I say the croissant breakfast sandwiches are THE BEST. I don’t know where they get the croissants but they are amazing. And the aioli that’s on them=dreams. 10/10
