Grounds For Celebration
5950 University Ave, West Des Moines, IA
Crema's Take
“Nestled inside the Iowa Clinic building, Grounds For Celebration has become a beloved refuge for patients waiting for appointments, offering genuinely excellent espresso-based drinks and fresh quiche that elevates the typical medical office experience. Their dark roast espresso pulls with real depth and character, and the baristas craft particularly memorable lattes, creating the kind of quality coffee moment that transforms an otherwise routine day. It's a cozy, laptop-friendly spot built for lingering conversations and comfortable solitude alike, though regulars note the experience hinges heavily on catching the owner in a generous mood.”

Love this location for Dr appts. Great coffee and tea.
Great service great Latte’s, amazing atmosphere. I wish I could come here more often. If I could give it 6 stars I could.
This location for Ground for Celebration is in the Iowa Clinic building. How refreshing to have quality food and drinks available when waiting for medical appointments! The quiche was superb! And the serving was huge! Delicious coffee too. Excellent service as well.
This coffee is GOOD. Their espresso is a dark roast, but has plenty of tasty flavor. The girl working the counter makes a great lattè too.
Many occasions we have been here the owner ( girl working ) can be quite snarky/ rude. We come for allergy shots every four weeks and have been coming here for 6+ years. The attitude is quite appalling and aggressive. We were just looking and she came and shut a light off in our face and barely made eye contact. I asked what she said WE CLOSE AT THREE. Ok….. your open sign is still out. “Oh THE SIGN THAT SAYS 6-3? “ Mind you we were just looking at cheese and it was 3:03. I will be sure to never purchase my coffee / pricey drinks here again. As you’ve been rude to us on numerous occasions at this point, not just me, my 10 year old as well. Your attitude today confused my 4 and 5 year old . Have some tact. There are polite ways to address people. It’s fine you close at 3. We were unaware and are usually here in the morning. It’s not fine you’re not being a nice human. We all have bad days, get tired, have personal situations, you’re not any more different than the next person down the street. Be nice. You honestly scare kiddos. One time it was just mine asking for whipped cream…..
