This restaurant in Ames serves the best coffee in town. The staff is friendly and provides excellent service. The food is tasty, the atmosphere is laid-back, and the morning music is particularly enjoyable.

The salads were excellent and my group enjoyed the coffee. However, we found the Broccoli-Cheddar soup to be lacking in flavor - it tasted like cheesy water with bits of broccoli. Overall, we were disappointed with this dish.
