Crema's Take
“Uptown Coffee Company's NewBo location has earned a perfect 5-star rating, but that's based on just 13 reviews, so take it with appropriate caution. What comes through consistently is genuine loyalty from regulars who praise both the coffee quality and creative drinks like their Heated Chaivalry and Kashmiri chai, plus a strong food program with pastries, paninis, and breakfast items. If you're in Cedar Rapids, the early reviews suggest it's worth trying, especially if you want something beyond standard coffee shop fare.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit, quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu.

I LOVE Uptown! Best coffee ever with the best vibes. We used to go to the Marion location all the time until we moved. We are so happy they moved to Newbo so we can see them more again!
The best coffee great quality the specials are always so yummy. The oats, panini, burrito, donutland delish! Always so friendly
I think they may have the best coffee at least in Cedar Rapids maybe even Iowa. I especially love their chai tea. I loved the Heated Chaivalry. I hope it comes back someday!
