"I visited here a month ago, and had lunch and a coffee. I had the chicken panini it was good. My coffee I felt was bitter but it could have been the flavor of the month I got, but I wanted to try something new so that was on me. They had free wi-fi, nice bathrooms, and the staff was very nice. I was there killing time while my husband was at a training. I was able to do book keeping and crochet comfortably. And it looked like there was many students there throughout the afternoon doing group studies together while socializing."

"Came here for a quick breakfast and really loved everything! We both got breakfast sandwiches and coffee. I got the seasonal Bourbon Caramel Cold Brew with Coconut Foam. Both the food and drinks came out quickly. The sandwiches were super tasty and filling. The ingredients tasted fresh. Love the little bit of outdoor seating that they had since the weather was nice! Some cool merch inside, too!"

"Today, I had the best drink I have ever had, and it was at Cafe Diem. I indulged in the iced strawberry cold foam matcha latte. It was perfect. Cafe Diem is a great place to study or catch up with a friend. It is so cozy and the baristas are very friendly. I also had the pleasure of having a chicken salad sandwich. Thank you to whoever cheffed that up! New favorite coffee shop in Ames! 💯"

"I’ve been here a few times and usually my coffee is perfect. Their house made vanilla syrup is delicious! The most recent time I was in I got my usual order, iced vanilla latte, and this time my espresso was watery and tasted burnt. The color of this latte was also more brown and watery than usual. I’ve gotten the same order every time so I know how it usually tastes and looks. Very disappointing for a coffee lover like me."

"Enjoyed the chicken paining (huge!) and a mango smoothie today and we'll worth it!"
