Went here today for the first time ( for the coffee part of the business) and ordered a cold latte with almond milk and vanilla. Paired with a Veggie panini.The coffee was fantastic! (I’ll be back, thank you very much!)The panini was as wonderful! It has an amazing Sriracha aïoli sauce on it. Mmmmmmm!————We visited the location multiple times since (it’s now almost daily for us). Outstanding service every time! Best coffee in Cedar Rapids/Marion hands down. I have roasted, pulled many shots, and love this place!
Nice place. Nice staff. Have had better coffee elsewhere but its still good here and we like the small town, local shop feel of the place.
Employees are nice, but it’s super awkward as a customer to walk inside and not hear at least a “hello” or something, especially when the employees are literally just standing there talking and won’t even look at you until YOU say something. This has happened to me multiple times each time there were no other customers there. The drinks can be good, but they’re pretty inconsistent. Last time I got a room temp latte that I could not taste the vanilla syrup in whatsoever and it ultimately tasted like lukewarm milk that at one point had been in the same room as espresso. I believe in supporting small local business but it is simply not worth it for the price, inconsistency, and awkward atmosphere.
This coffee house has been my go-to when feeling homesick. Its got a very comfortable and cozy feeling and reminds me a lot of the places Id visit back in Montreal.The people that woke there are extremely nice and friendly and I also admire them for continuing to adhere to suggested COVID guidelines as best as they can while still remaining a functioning business. Cheers to them!
Don’t waste your time driving here. You never know if this place will be open or closed. I’ve never seen another business not follow their own hours on so many occasions. There has been numerous times my wife and I would go out of our way to get coffee here to only find out when we got there that they closed early. Last weekend was the last straw. As we’re getting ready to pull in, we noticed they had a little sign out on the street stating that they were open. We park and walk inside to find out there was a private party going on and that they were closed. Then why is there a sign on the street stating your open?!?!?! Never again will we step foot in your establishment.
Clean, we go regularly so know what we like to drink. Easy to visit. Let us stay as long as we like. Service good people friendly.
Great coffee and service! Cutest little shop.. My lavender chai was the perfect combination of flavor and sass. Thanks y’all!
I dare you to try and find a coffee shop in the CR or Marion area that has the ambiance, quality of coffee and work ethic of the uptown coffee co. I love spending time in this coffee shop and who doesn’t love donutland donuts!
I wasn’t expecting to adore a coffee shop in a bar, but Uptown hits it out of the park with their finessed coffee skills and delicious flavor pairings. Their breakfast sandwiches are a must and I’ve never had a featured drink that I didn’t like there. Quality is clearly a priority for these folks and it’s so thoroughly appreciated! Love having y’all in the neighborhood!!!
Ordered a iced salted caramel latte this morning and it was absolutely delicious. The donuts also looked amazing and the place has such a cute atmosphere!
Delicious drinks and amazing chicken salad melt — perfect atmosphere and great prices
Uptown Coffee is absolutely top-notch. This is a coffee shop for people who are serious about their coffee. Some of my favorites are the cappuccino, iced latte, raw chocolate cold brew, and cortado. They use quality espresso, and all of the drinks have excellent flavor and strength instead of tasting milky/watered down. The food and donuts are also amazing. Uptown Coffee has a nice atmosphere, and everyone is really friendly. The only downside to this coffee shop is that when I go to other coffee shops now, I have to prepare myself for disappointment (haha). You will not find a better coffee shop in the Cedar Rapids area.
Top place for a local coffee shop and add in being able to get the best donuts around, its a cant miss. Syrups made in house and the blueberry cold brew is amazing.
Wow what a nice place to some good tasting coffee really nice staff great place to work on your blog or website when finished sit back and have bear or 2 they have peach ale naybe the best beer I have ever had in had I thought a little high in price $11 for 2 pints plus tip, so $13 overall well I be back tomorrow really liked the place food looked good and quite a bit of fo food was being served strongly recommend..
They were very accommodating, the food is very tasty, the blueberry cold brew, so yummy! Cute little space connected to the Uptown Snug.Wonderful, great people!Thank you for the experience.
Wonderful and delicous coffee shop in the heart of Marion.
First time here - Very well decorated, nice aesthetic and clean. I also enjoy the atmosphere here during the day.
Absolutely delicious coffee with house-made syrups! Everyone was pleasant and eager to assist. I will definitely be going there again.
Love this place. Good coffee. Not overly sweet and a nice selection of Donutland donuts. Owners are friendly and really care about the place and your experience.
Cute spot! Ordered a delicious caramel latte this morning. Friendly staff. Quick service.
Super quaint little coffee shop, AND they serve Donutland donuts!
We went to Uptown Coffee last Sunday morning for a treat for my wifes birthday who loves Donutland Donuts. The donuts were great and our coffee was good, but we were basically asked to leave the front of the business or move to the back area because we didnt have masks on. How do you drink coffee and eat with masks on? Why is it that restaurants are open all over the city that you can eat and drink in, but not here? It was strange to say the least. We got up and left.
Great coffee and vibe! Good place to get work done.
Best chai ever! Hands down! Ordered my iced dirty chai and they said it would take 5* mins. I thought to myself wow! They are brewing chai, this is going to be incredible! And it was! I can’t wait to come back!
They have Donut Land donuts in the morning, which are, in my opinion, the best donuts in Linn county
Love the 16oz latte with vanilla and mocha syrup. I am now in love with the almond cardamom cappuccino and the combo of vanilla and brown sugar cinnamon is awesome. If you want coffee that is smooth and not sharp or burnt this is the place.
Lovely place. Great coffee.
Delish 🍩donuts and awesome staff. Love supporting local ❤ and deliciousness!
Cozy, friendly, and scrupulously clean with perfectly delicious coffee! Cant wait to try the whole menu!
Great espresso, cappuccinos, food, and donuts. Quality ingredients like vegetables in the food which is awesome. The donuts are great too; the cherry glazed ones are something special.
Great place with a cost atmosphere. Yummy coffee and donuts too
Great coffee and espresso beverages! The Donutland donuts is a bonus, really.
Friendly nice place to enjoy coffee. Delicious lattes.
Good veggie breakfast sandwich and Carmel latte
Nice atmosphere and easy place to meet with friends in an outdoor venue.
