Arnolds Perk Coffee — Restaurant in Arnolds Park

TL;DR - A great, reasonably-priced coffee/breakfast spot overall, would recommend.

We visited this spot twice during our week-long stay. The first visit would have gotten the place five stars, but we hit a big of a hitch during the second visit. Here's the details.

Our first visit we had Lacey help us. She made some amazing recommendations for our coffee drinks, kept our kiddos engaged and even giggling as they selected their frozen hot chocolate, and was overall a great presentation of the place. The food looked and smelled delicious, so we were aching to come back for a cooked breakfast over our hotel's heat-and-eat buffet.

Our second visit was for that delicious breakfast. The food was extremely reasonable—$6.99 for an egg meal enough to satisfy me, a 200 lb man. My son loved his french toast, and my daughter spoke of her granola bowl through the drive home.

The only reason this didn't get a fifth star is the iced drink they made my wife. It was supposed to be a mocha, but it tasted like bad milk. They placed chocolate sauce along the cup, but not in the espresso itself. When asked, the barista just added more chocolate sauce. To be fair, they were friendly and polite, I think they just didn't know what to do.

Overall, though, I would highly recommend this spot. Great prices, great products,...

Great coffee, friendly staff, and delicious food! The food portions were substantial at very affordable prices, plus everything was so delicious! Located right across the street from the Arnolds Park Promenade - great place to visit and sit & relax after walking through the park, or visit here first then go for a stroll :) Breakfast is served all day (we tried the french toast and breakfast sandwich on croissant - so good!). And if you have any questions about the menu, the staff are super friendly and helpful. Definitely, definitely...

Absolutely L❤ve this charming little coffee house, they also serve food. As my friend & I sat outside eating our fresh strawberry feta& almond sliver salad& a beautifully made turkey croissant sandwich, with a Red bull smoothie. We sat under a pretty umbrella while the lake breezes cooled us and looked out at Lake Okoboji & the Emporium. You can also relax inside on a comfy couch with friends or quaint tables. It reminded me of my fun x in Eugene, San Francisco & the...
