Cafe Diem

Cafe Diem is a great little coffee shop right on Main Street. It makes for a perfect location to meet up with friends, grab a coffee and sit back and relax. Their cold brewed coffee is fantastic!! It has a great atmosphere and there are enough tables that you can usually find a place to sit. It never seems to loud, even when almost all the tables are full and everyone is talking. I'm thankful we have such a great little coffee shop in Ames!!

Super friendly people and one of the reasons I finished my PhD. YAY for their wonderful coffee and food. Come with a fully charged battery however, if you plan to work. There's one wall with electrical outlets, but that's about it, so you may need to share or come during an off hour to grab one of the "plugged in" tables. Service is wonderful — staff is very nice.

Was a great place to work. There are seats near the windows, a few power outlets, and great coffee. I did not, however, see a public restroom.

Great place to study or just relax. Enjoyed a huge cinnamon roll made fresh this morning. Outlets and USB ports available at some tables, which is awesome as my phone was low on battery. Took off a star because I had the dark roast coffee of the day; good flavor, but it wasn't as strong as I prefer my coffee.

Wonderful place to get together with others or hang out and get studying done. They have a good selection of coffee, tea and some smoothies to accompany your stay
