Press Coffee — Restaurant in Iowa City

We were heading out of town on a road trip, and passed by Press Coffee. I'd seen their tempting social media posts, but had never visited. We decided to turn the car around check it out. It was definitely worth it. I love visiting locally owned coffee shops. Each one is different, and Press is a good example of a destination coffee shop. There are two different outdoor patios, a drive-through window, and plenty of seating inside on the main level, as well as upstairs. They have very cozy, artistic, and welcoming spaces. I make a lot of coffee at home using locally roasted beans, sometimes roasted the same day or within a few days, then fresh ground just prior to making espresso. So, I've become accustomed to really fresh rich coffee. I ordered a latte at Press Coffee, and normally I would sweeten a latte, but they make such a smooth delicious latte that I didn't feel a need to sweeten it. I was really impressed. Thanks Press for creating a great coffee shop experience...

Did not even order due to the disappointment with the service. We went through the drive through where to see the menu you have to scan the QR code to see the menu online with your phone. Which only had part of what they had at their establishment. When we got to the window to place our order we had to ask for the menu with the flavors. The woman kept cutting us off in the middle of our sentences and walked away in the middle of our order. When we told the lady in the drive through we weren’t finished she said she knew. We left and tried calling the store. The manager said she didn’t have time to talk when we first got on the phone however when leaving the number and why we were calling she asked what the issue was. We tried to tell her what happened We couldn’t hear the conversation with the manager due to phone issues but today made me never want to go there. Unfortunately we didn’t get to try anything because the service was so...

I recently moved to Iowa City and having been having issues with my internet. I decided to stop by here instead of a Starbucks and so glad I did! They don't keep the music volume too high, which I appreciate since I have to do work. The staff is VERY friendly and good at what they do. The atmosphere here is very comfortable and makes my work day much easier having the option to sit inside or out on the patio for making phone calls. Bathroom is very clean. I love that they have a drive thru for days when I'm in a rush. So glad to have such a great local coffee shop to come to! I have been here three days this week and will definitely be coming back frequently. Also, great Cappuccinos and...
