A wonderful gem in Earlham. The coffee has always been on point and the breakfast burrito was a generous portion and the perfect potato/crunch to meat ratio. Service with a smile (though it can be busy in the mornings) and the restaurant has a nice industrial farmhouse ambiance. A nice getaway from the typical breakfast places in Des Moines.

Beans & Beignet is Iowa's best kept secret!Just few miles away from I-80 in little town of Earlham (please stop at the stop signs).I almost started to cry eating their wonderful foodCalm atmosphere, the way of serving, and quality of food set me for another day of traveling.

This is a great place to eat in Earlham! The service is so friendly, and fast. I ordered the cinnamon and sugar beignet, it came quickly and was so good! The prices were good and affordable, for example, a kids meal is $6, and you can get ice cream, a drink, and food. The coffee was very good too, it was made really quickly. The cafe its self was very cute and clean. I would totally recommend!

We were excited to see a cafe like this in Earlham. The area has evolved so much since I grew up in the area and it's great to see their commercial businesses picking up. We had lunch and split an order of beignets. Lunch was okay (a French dip without the au jus, soup, and salads) but nothing special. The beignets were disappointing as we love NOLA and I've made my share of beignets. I'm not sure if it was the batch or the recipe, but these were much closer to sopapillas- good but NOT beignets. They also seemed to struggle with staffing. Lots of grumpy folks and unbussed tables. Hopefully they'll get things sorted!

Nice gem of a place. Hidden in Earlham. I went here specifically for beignets. I had been craving some and determined to find traditional ones I was directed here by a FB group. The place is very welcoming and the lady that greeted us was very nice. We ordered a dozen beignets. 6 traditional with the powdered sugar and 6 with cinnamon sugar. We also got a hot chocolate, which was delicious. The beignets were amazing! They were fresh and warm and crispy and soft and oh so good! They have an ice cream bar which I cannot wait to try. I will indeed be back for more. Until next time!

Stopped here for breakfast Sat morning passing through on I80. Adorable place, fast online ordering, close to gas station. Friendly staff. Online Order right on time. DELICIOUS breakfast. Coffees have great flavor. Breakfast burritos are huge. Well worth the stop. We will be back. Thank you!

My husband and I visited this nice gem when we saw their sign off I-80. We were looking for a coffee place and like to try non-chain coffee spots. We were not disappointed! The coffee was amazing! The staff was very nice and helpful. The atmosphere of the place was very warm, inviting, and comfortable. This will definitely be a place we visit when driving through!

A great little find! The beignets are to die for! I treated myself to 3 pumpkin beignets & 3 cinnamon/sugar! I thought the pumpkin would be heavy, but light as a feather and a lovely caramel sauce! I shared and didn't eat them all! I will definitely be back! It feels like a small town diner with much love and care from the Staff! ThanKs for a nice break in my day!
