Smokey Row Coffee
155 W Hickman Rd, Urbandale, IA
Crema's Take
“Tucked into an unexpected spot within a gas station, Smokey Row surprises with a genuinely cozy atmosphere that invites you to linger over a cup or settle in for a meal—the breakfast sandwiches and warming soups earn particular praise despite flying under the radar. While their specialty and traditional coffee drinks are solid, it's the full food program (including ice cream) and the welcoming vibe that transforms this into a genuine community gathering spot rather than just a quick caffeine stop.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee. A slow-sit, quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and light food on the menu. Parking available.
