10 Best Cafes near Polk City

“Amazing place for breakfast and lunch! I have gotten my food to go and have dined in. Everyone at rising sun was very helpful and extremely kind! The owner even made sure she greeted us herself! Top notch service - I will definitely be back!“

“Such a nice place and it is bigger than I remember it being. There are so many food options and the desserts look amazing. I had the chicken Alfredo and I loved it. The general Manager Archie was one of the nicest people I have met and made sure we had everything we needed. Food came out very fast and staff was nice. Also place is very clean.“

“Amazing local diner ran by a great family. The new owners are working so hard to preserve the family vibe that Dean and Brandi served all of these years and are doing a great job. Heidi, her mom and daughters have really hit the ground running. I highly recommend the biscuits and gravy! My breakfast date really enjoyed their breakfast as well. Special shout out to the customers that let me take their photos at the stools ?. I am looking forward to coming back with my husband!“

“We heard that Double Dipped had good ice cream, so we stopped by to try it for ourselves, and it lived up to the good recommendation! There were over a dozen flavors available, so we first tried a few samples. We then ordered two flavors each (one pairing in a dish, the other in a waffle cone). There are several tables if you're dining in. There are also various smoked meats, honey products, and other locally-made food and gift items in the shop.“

“Rise & Grind Nutrition: Stellar Service and a Delicious Treat! Just had a fantastic experience at Rise & Grind Nutrition in Ankeny, even though it was close to closing time! The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, taking my order with a smile despite they were minutes away from closing. And let me tell you, the PB Twix protein drink was absolutely delicious! It tasted like a decadent treat while still packing a protein punch. Rise & Grind definitely impressed me with their courteous service and their menu. I'll definitely be back to try more of their creations! 5 out of 5 stars!“

“Very cute small place , my place of work got "Tea Bombed" which means we got nominated and won the drawing to have Thrive Nutrition bring us some sample teas! Very fun concept to get the community involved and spread the word around! The ladies there were extremely helpful and knowledgeable when I asked about collagen. One described some popular drinks and what they have to see which suited my taste ! Very lovely here!“

“HyVee is a friendly Midwest grocery store chain. They typically have the freshest produce of anu grocery store, and the best selection. Their focus may not always be on the lowest prices, but they have a better selection and higher quality product than some cheaper stores. They're not overpriced, just maybe not the lowest. I find them to be a good value for quality and money. Staff is always friendly!“

“Sip Club member -love the sip club.... 4 stars, only option at this location for sugar free is Deit Pepsi. There used to be other diet offerings. They have 2 dispensers in the fountain for Mtn Dew, 2 for Dr Pepper etc. A huge fountain machine but each option is simply doubled. Maybe Diet Mtn Dew, Diet Dr Pepper for variety would be appreciated.“

“I would like to say this store goes above customer service .. I placed an online order to be picked up same time as I had our Covid testing done .. Once I got home I noticed that they stated they were out of hamburger .. I called the store to confirm they stated they would check and call me back ... No they actually came and brought us the hamburger ...“

“Always good food and relatively quick service with friendly staff. You simply don't know exactly what side you'll get when you get home with your carry-out bag. Example: ordering baguettes might turn out to be chips or vice versa. Expect the unexpected when getting home and opening the bag.“
