Vibrant Coffeehouse + Kitchen

"Love this place! I've had a great experience every time I've been and the vibe is a 10/10. The vanilla lattes are my favorite when it comes to local coffee shops in the area. I have enjoyed every menu item I've tried. The rise and grind sandwich is excellent. I've gotten a couple of the soups and they are good too. I prefer the potato over the chicken pot pie and look forward to trying the chili."

"Beautiful locally owned coffee spot in the east village. With lots of area for people to sit and enjoy a drink or food item. Staff was welcoming and nice. I ordered a large iced peppermint oat milk mocha and it was divine. It had peppermint crumbled at the top with whipped cream and chocolate drizzle. Pure holiday caffeine perfection. My husband ordered a warm large Turtle mocha latte and he loved it also. My kid even enjoyed the whipped topping goodness of my drink. Only thing I wish they had was more Gluten-free food options for us who can't consume gluten due to an allergy. Other than that definitely a new favorite coffee spot for me! Highly recommend."

"New coffee shop still figuring out their kitchen but over a good experience and we will be back. Very cute decor, nice tables, even their simple chair were cute, no boring standard dining plastic chairs here! I cannot stress enough how amazing their tiramisu was, HUGE as well ($7 or so, so solid). I also got a breakfast sandwich that was just so so, standard sausage, egg (didn’t seem fresh, maybe a frozen patty which doesn’t bother me much but I like the option for a runny yolk etc) english muffin, probably wouldn’t get it again. Partner got a bagel and cream cheese, they only have plain bagels (odd) and the cream cheese was just two small things of Philadelphia cream cheese. If it were just a coffee shop I’d not think much of it but for name also being “kitchen” there was room for improvement. The fruit as a side was strawberries and grapes so that was great with me too! The Americano and basic drip coffee were good, no complaints."

"This place is an absolute hidden gem! Note: They are currently in a “soft launch” and brand new, so for anyone reading this - Their Grand Opening will be in September, so before you review keep in mind there may be some steps along the way for them to ramp up 100% to their Grand Opening! The space and atmosphere is among the best of all coffee shops I have experienced in the Des Moines area. Seating: - Comfortable booth seating - Large tables for groups - Bar style seating for individuals - A cozy space with couch and chairs - Outdoor seating Excellent menu with a wide variety of items. Above and beyond customer service. Looks like room for 50+ people indoor/outdoor, and a downstairs area yet to be revealed. The lighting is perfect: some dim/moody areas as well as some vibrant lit areas. This will be my go-to coffee shop moving forward!"

"Whenever I go to a new coffee shop, I get my classic coffee order and a special food item. Coffee today was cold brew with toffee nut and soy (I felt like treating myself a little bit) and it was solid. Definitely going to test out their espresso next time as they have lots of flavors to choose from. For food, I got the Rise and Grind, which was also solid. The tomatoes had that nice bit of "snap" that comes from being super fresh and the bagel was tasty (although, this sandwich would be exemplary on an everything bagel...). The strawberries were also super good and fresh. All in all, it came out to about $14 for the sandwich, coffee and tip. This place hits all the notes it's going for. I'll definitely be back to try out some of their menu."
