Saints Rest in Grinnell

Great coffee shop with a fantastic staff and excellent muffins.

I absolutely dislike the syrup method of coffee flavoring i.e. Caramel Machiato or Caramel Latte..... I want real Caramel, not some knock off syrup, gross. Amazing people, smiling faces, great service and the atmosphere is amazing.

The best coffee spot in Grinnell. Wonderful coffee, wonderful atmosphere. The people are the best, and it's a great place to have a meeting or get work done on your own. Reasonable prices as well!

The young man helping us at the counter needs a little help with his customer service skills but the small town charm and lady singing behind the counter more than make up for it.We were there June 30th around 10am.

Wonderful atmosphere. Family/ kid friendly. Comfortable. Wonderful coffee.

Best Coffee place in town!

Great love music. The coffee is good too.

Always friendly quick service.

Nice small town coffee shop. Nice to see it so busy with studying college students. Nice selection of seasonal choices

Good coffee, convenient place to meet friends, and there are always fresh baked goods to accompany your drink.

Espresso drinks good, coffee weak. Love the vibe.

Best coffee in Town. Even better service.

Had the iced chai tea and it was delicious!! 10/10 would order again.

Good coffee. Groovy atmosphere. College people hanging out with townies.

Delicious and lovely lovely staff

In the first minute, Ashley tuned in on me and recommended a perfect coffee drink. Plus, I came for a friendly chat with my coffee and Ashley gave me both. Other guests also greeted me too. I am a cross country traveler that visits local coffee shops. This one gets an A+ from me.

Coffee and muffin were good. Vibe is very hippy and it puts the "liberal" into liberal arts. Expect the clientele to be young girls who apparently don't bathe often, have rich parents and are clueless about the real world. But hey, the coffee is good.

a grinnell classic!

Good coffee and hot chocolate

This is the place you want to be every morning. Fantastic coffee, atmosphere, food and some really cool people that are welcoming and friendly.

Spunky staff. Cozy. Many options for coffee, tea, and soda.

Free WiFi, great coffee, and plenty of seating... Who could ask for anything more?

Saint's Rest is my single favorite establishment in Grinnell. The muffins are always a pleasure and fresh, and the coffees are good-- this isn't a "just enough" kind of place. I've always loved the atmosphere here. It's good for work or just relaxing with friends, or mingling with people you don't see often. The owner is also very friendly and the place works to fix things gone wrong. Small bathrooms in the back are clean but sometimes tough to get to.

Off the hook awesome!

The Coffee was perfect. Customer service was good.

The Chai-der is pretty terrible.

Saints Rest Coffeehouse is an awesome place. Friendly help, great coffee , muffins & cookies!

Cool college cafe. Good coffee and nice vibes.

Great service and great coffee.

Might be the only decent coffee within 50 miles of Grinnell, but only mediocre and rude vibe.

Great service. Great assortment of coffee and snacks.

Wonderful place to meet your neighbor and great coffee.

always a pleasure to hang out here when visiting my daughter at school. Great coffee and muffins. Very friendly staff. Comfortable, clean and relaxed room. Glad it's there.

it has really good italian cream or regular Sodas.

I had a French press, Awesome, but it only filled half of a cup.

This is one very special and awesome coffee shop to go too.

A nice study and work spot with kind people and a great cup of coffee.

Great coffee and ambience. Baristas are friendly and conversational.

Great coffee and coffee drinks. The pastries look good. Friendly staff and customers too

Another gem in Grinnel. Super friendly staff and some good coffee. Comfy and inviting. Follow the locals and you'll find this place; it's the one that's always busy!

Best coffee in town. Made to order. Fresh and great coffee. The staff is friendly and the location is perfect.

Comfortable. Friendly. Wide variety of drink options. Great little deli in the back for soups, salads and sandwiches. Gluten free options!

This is a great place to sit and enjoy a hot drink and read or do quiet work. The staff is always warm and friendly. I haven't had trouble finding a little nook to tuck myself into and work. It's such a pleasant place to spend a few hours.

Great beverages! Laid back atmosphere. Good little deli in the back at lunch time!

The coffee is amazing, the space is comfortable, and the staff is excellent!

Quaint coffee shop with fresh muffins and toasted bagels. Friendly service. Relax in living room furniture with no TVs to disturb your morning. No decaf here though.

I’m here on a Sunday and it’s super busy. The employees keep yelling at each other and I’m scared. They also yelled at their guests to pick out a muffin before they get to the front of the line. The coffee is pretty good though and it seems like a hip hangout spot in town.

It is attached to a deli that serves amazing food as well. The baristas and owner are all knowledgeable and very outgoing and friendly. Sam the owner gets.to know her regulars and their likes and dislikes. She takes pride in making good espresso and coffee absolutely my favorite coffee shop around

The peppermint bark mocha was one of the best drinks I've had!

Great place to see people you know
