"Great quality coffee, definitely up there with the top few in the metro. I had a decaf cortado which was excellent, my wife got a cold brew and a chai latte, and all drinks were great. Place was very busy, but drinks still came out very quickly. The donuts are also great, and they have good take-home bottles of cold brew latte. Great coffee shop."

"Not exaggerating, this is one of the best coffee shops we've ever been to. The hospitality and welcome are unmatched. The coffee and drinks are amazing. We were taking a cross country trip and they made our driving break the best part of our day. Thank you baristas of Northern Vessel!"

"Amazing hospitality! I would highly recommend this sweet simple modern coffee shop. The rich medium black coffee was perfect along with the glazed old fashioned donut. Happy this was recommended to me on my trip to Des Moines. I will be back."

"Great local coffee shop! Hung out at Northern Vessel this morning with my family upon the recommendation of a friend. Loved the simplicity of the decor. Recommend the Cortado."
