Horizon Line Coffee

This is one of the most beautiful coffee shops I’ve ever seen! I was in Des Moines looking for a place to do some computer work and get some coffee and this is the best possible place. Very thoughtfully designed interior. I found myself transfixed by the plant life. Definitely go here.

This place was exceptional in every sense of the word. Every new coffee place I go to, I look for this level of quality and skill and I'm almost always disappointed. But Horizon Line is superb. The homemade scones were better than any I've had outside of my mom's kitchen. The coffee was perfectly brewed and the homemade flavors made the difference. Vibes were impeccable, Perfect to study or meet with a friend. Very friendly and patient staff and I can't wait to come back.

This place is a little gem! The coffee and atmosphere are perfectly balanced and designed with people in mind. Do yourself a flavor favor and go here!

Prices are par for specialty roasters- also, they have sustainability as a core belief. (Recyclable, Reusable glass mugs((see picture))Des Moines should have this place in every neighborhood!

I’m almost not cool enough to hang here, but they let me hang anyway. Very nice staff and drinks too adorable to drink. Pictured is the one and one. I drank it anyway and it was excellent.

Great local coffee shop. Their desserts, lattes and service are top notch. Atmosphere is perfect for a coffee date and together with friends.

Lastly, their to-go cups are in glass mason jars, rather than the disposable coffee cups and they offer a discount on your next order if you return the mason jars.

Shop that needs to be checked out if visiting or local.

Great coffee, awesome staff, and a beautiful shop. I love their to go glasses/jars. The experience of drinking from the glass (even to go) made it taste that much better and it was simple to return the glass when we were done after a nice walk though sculpture park. Highly recommend this place!

I really can't say enough about this coffee shop. We were on a trip from Detroit to Denver, Colorado and our electric Ford F-150 lightning and it had been a hectic cold trip. What a blessing to come to this coffee shop. Super relaxed atmosphere. Amazingly friendly people and the food and the coffee are fantastic. I'm not vegan per se, but I can tell you that the vegan scones i had the caramel apple and my wife had the blackberry chai were absolutely fantastic. Looking forward to our stop on the way back. Ask for Brad. He can tell you all about the amazing coffee.

Great local roaster and coffee shop with a rotating menu of creative seasonal drinks with syrups and ingredients made in house. Great vegan pastries as well.

I always love the coffee here. I love the clean, open space. Seating is limited so during warmer weather I take my coffee to go (which they serve in reusable jars). We were able to sit this time so we got a savory scone to share and it was SO GOOD!!!

The coffee is the best in Des Moines, no contest. More impactful than that, though—the experience here is consistently incredible. The staff here are masterful at creating a welcoming, hospitable, and unpretentious experience. Their seasonal rotating specials are artful, their classic drinks consistently second-to-none, and their passion for their customers and community are present with every visit. I admire their passion for “the glass revolution” (serving to-go drinks in reusable jars) and the commitment to a beautifully curated, minimal, yet cozy atmosphere. This is a must-visit if in Des Moines, or even in Iowa. I only wish they were open later, I would visit every evening if I could.

Great coffee shop. We are from out of town, and on both stops they were Incredibly nice with our kids. Gave them stickers and extremely welcoming and hospitable. Plus, the coffee was fantastic. I had an americano and an iced pour over, and both were exceptional. 10/10! Also, Karl enjoyed his maple latte.

Great coffee in Des Moines. Definitely worth a stop in. Love how the company is so ethical in everything it does. Great example of a for profit business that also cares about leaving the world a better place. To go coffee is in reusable glass jars which is just awesome!

Not only does Horizon Line have the best coffee and creative delicious seasonal drinks, we just love the atmosphere and staff so much! We’re both Deaf and the staff always go out of their way to communicate efficiently with us and make us truly feel welcome and included. If you’re in the area or driving through Des Moines, highly recommend making this stop!

Absolutely awesome coffee served only in a glass jar that you can take home and bring back. I admire them for taking such a bold and positive step. I also love how the iced coffee was cold without excessive ice.. which makes it easy to drink without needing a straw at all.
Definitely check them out if visiting!

I love visiting cafes everywhere I go. Any stop there is, I love exploring cafes. This cafe has been one of the most aesthetically pleasing one, and there is only one I can compare it to. Good coffee and great people.

Arrived late near closing time, but I enjoyed sitting down in this beautiful space, with an exceptional cup of freshly brewed tea from Spirit Teas. I don't drink coffee, so I always try to spot places where they have a nice selection. Horizon Line didn't disappoint!

Also there was this v cute guy, long hair, cap, glasses, that I wish I'd have talked too. Sorry, I'm oversharing here. 🙃

Coffee and scones were delicious and reasonably priced compared to chain stores! Love the fact that all to go drinks are served in glass jars that can be brought back and reused or recycled at home if you are just stopping by from out of town! Also the shop is super cute! Great interior design and plant selection! Will definitely return next time I'm in the area.

I got a shot, cortado and an iced lavender thyme latte. Spending around $15.

Horizon line is a cute little spot! The baristas were SO friendly. You could tell they enjoyed what they were doing. They also had tons of options for syrups! 2 gender neutral bathrooms and Wi-Fi.

Fantastic coffee.

They send “to go” coffees in small glass mason jars.

On a Road-trip with my daughter- was told this was a must to try. Barista was super helpful! Everything is recycled- your coffee comes in glass - ours was to go- so it came in a glass jar with lid. My choice was caramel latte. 5 stars
