Starbucks

Great customer service! Friendly Baristas and every latte , mocha , and tea made just the way I like it!

Great place to hang out with our granddaughter while her 3 week old baby sister was in Blank Hospital 's intensive care. Loved the holiday decor and great service.

Starbucks with an old turn of the 20th century feel. Perfect place to plug my laptop and get some work done and caffeine in my system.

Great environment and nice staff . Gets crowded a lot though. Park at the green meters for free parking for a quick coffee run

Barista Favorite: Grande Starbucks double shot. Substitute vanilla for classic, and add a splash of soy! Irresistible!

With all the Nationwiders here one would think they don't have a coffee shop in their office building (they do).

Get a large iced coffee , raspberry flavouring, light ice & 2% milk . Blueberry Oat Bar or Cheese Danish . You won't regret it!

Lines move quickly. Staff is friendly and helpful

Yup....the comments are true. Get here before 8am when it turns into a mad house from downtown workers.

When holiday time rolls around, try the peppermint mocha . It's the best!

Bring chess or checker pieces, the tables on the patio have built in game boards.

White chocolate mocha with soy and no whip is the best. They made the best I've EVER had

This is my favorite Starbucks ever. I wish I lived here!

They WILL remember YOU! (And your cup, rewards, etc.!) Amazing #Baristas ALL!

Great people who love there job... Jason is cool guy!!!

Fall is here. Be sure to get the Pumpkin Spice Latte . You will be glad you did.

Kinda crowded . Not the place for long meetings but great for a quick pow wow

Best Starbucks in town ! Great drinks, snacks , and awesome service!

The Americano is my favorite.

Avoid the barista Nathan , he's spectacularly bad at his job.

My first stop in Des Moines! Pleasant people and next to the biblioteque.

One of the best starbucks in des moines. Friendly staff great drinks

Get here before 8am - that's when the long lines of Nationwide/Allied folks show up.

This Starbucks was the first Starbucks to open in the state of Iowa.

The staff is so friendly !

Just a reminder that this Starbucks now closes at 8pm Mon-Sat and at 6pm Sunday. Lame, I know!

Caramel macchiato

The Nationwide North Annex and the ING West Wing .

Loving the coffee here!

Iced coffee

Doppio while you wait.

Crowded as eff. It's like a Christian Singles meetup up in here.

I will second Nathan W.'s Nationwide tip. It's a zoo after 8a!

right by work

I call this Nationwide North Annex .
