Out of this world coffee! Cozy locally owned shop with comfortable, calming space to chat with chai or gaze out the picture windows watching clouds or snowfall! In from Louisiana, visiting our Grad School Husky, & this was a warm welcome!

Sunday afternoon visit driving through town and had to stop. Barista was welcoming and latte/cappuccino’s were tasty and well priced. Space was simple and welcoming. Only tricky part was finding it as we drove by. I’m sure business is good during the days when school is in session. Glad we visited!

Finally tried this place out. It was pretty good, the barista was friendly and the vanilla latte had a real flavor to it. Much better than spending to long in line at two other places on campus, not that they can't get a little busy.

Kyle and Daria are awesome! Also, just had a coffee toffee and it tasted awesome! Their place is super cute. You can purchase t-shirts, mugs, and gift cards. They are also offering curbside pickup from your car if you go around back. So, if you were in the area and wanted to order ahead of time, just give them a call.

Cast Iron Coffee is a must-visit in the NIU area! The pistachio coffee is absolutely to die for—hands down a must-have. The space is spacious, inviting, and perfect for studying, catching up with friends, or just relaxing with an amazing cup of coffee. Great atmosphere, great drinks, and a great local coffee shop. Highly recommend! ☕️✨

This coffee shop is trendy, nicely appointed and very well-maintained. My family and I purchased four coffees and they were all excellent. There were very smooth and extremely flavorful. The barista was friendly and fast. I would come back to this coffee shop again.

Wow wow wow! The coffee is amazing. I ordered the matcha latte and what great bold flavors of matcha accompanied every sip to the last one. The baristas were kind and fast. The seating was plentiful inside and outside. This is a gem of a coffee café!

Immaculate vibes, good decor, great coffee and breakfast options. I got the honey lavender latte, and partner got a cookie flavored coffee. Got an extra bag of their coffee just to try at home. Best of all, great prices. Excited to come again and try more.
