- Their freshly roasted coffee and outstanding bariste produce the most amazing cappuccini in the United States. That is not hyperbole. Also, three words: chicken tortilla soup.
Kayla BierschbachMarch 8, 2013Start a punch card and make sure to come in on Tuesdays for Double Punch Tuesday! Wonderful way to study, drink amazing coffee & save a little money :)
Jeremy MurrayJuly 19, 2012Fantastic coffee shop to sit and work or simply run in and grab a great drink! Employees are all nice and great baristas. Favorite coffee shop in Ames.
Don't forget to sign up for their "birthday club." Cafe Milo send you a coupon during your birthday month for a free drink of your choice!
It might get overshadowed by the coffee, but it's definitely the best hot chocolate in Ames!
The employees are always the greatest at helping you decide what amazing drink to try!
Everyone should try a Carmel turtle mocha because they delish! Mmm mmm

Try to support local business over chain any day! This place is great!
Check our specials, also we can french press any of our coffee's for you, just ask!- Dark roast coffee is delicious. Don't forget to ask for your free refill!

Megan DrillingApril 6, 2013Terrible customer service. :( I ordered two iced coffees on my way out of town while it was slow inside, and it took ten minutes. The barista was chatting away with his friend in line
Chantz BerstlerOctober 3, 2011To the people that advertise the cafe on this page... its for the fans to leave tips not you...
Ciara SchabenSeptember 2, 2010Go to Cafe Milo and order a sandwich but instead of coffee get an Italian soda. The price might throw you off but the taste won't.
Pay $8 for the smallest sandwich. In general over priced.
