Let’s Eat
Good Food Is Everywhere. Bring Your Appetite.
The Cedar Valley serves up all kinds of flavor. From locally owned coffee shops to wood-fired pizza, food trucks, neighborhood favorites, and farm-to-table kitchens, there’s no shortage of great places to eat.
First Stop: Coffee
Mornings often start with a strong cup of coffee from one of our many independent spots. If you don’t have a go-to order yet, give it a week.
Meals That Feel
Like Home
You’ll find classic comfort food, inventive specials, and restaurants where the regulars get hugs. Some places have cloth napkins and curated wine lists. Others hand you a basket of fries and a fountain drink. Both hit the spot.
Ice Cream is Practically a Local Sport
Whether it’s a seasonal walk-up or your year-round standby, there’s always a reason to treat yourself.
Food here doesn’t take itself too seriously.
It just happens to be really, really good.
