Espresso 8 mentions

“Personally, I recommend getting a Cortado, followed by a large latte, hot in the winter (which is long in Iowa), and iced in the summer (which gets very hot and muggy).”

What customers say

The one and one was a great way to try out their espresso and both were excellent. The service was very friendly and quick. I hope the beans I bought are as good as what I had in the shop.

Great coffee. No ice. I feel like all coffee shops must have ice… what are you suppose to do on a hot summer day? Anyway not the biggest deal. Cute little place with awesome beans.

★★★★☆ — Lydia, 2023-06

The coffee was really good! Tasted like quality beans without drowning the coffee out with sugar or milk. I got my usual cortado and also opted for a Con Limon as well. I love the coffee and lemonade combo. It was refreshing with just the appropriate amount of sweetness.

★★★★☆ — Melinda, 2024-09

Best coffee spot in town! They roast their own beans and do it really well! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a delicious cup of coffee (the mocha is really good!) Plus Maegan, the barista who served me today, was a wonderful conversationalist. If you're still looking for the best cup in Ames, look no further!
