Impact Coffee
What people are saying
My favorite local haunt. Delicious coffee, yummy snacks, impeccable vibes. I'm not a huge coffee aficionado or snob, so I usually go for something on their seasonal drink menu that changes throughout the year. Always delicious flavor combos! If you're not into coffee, they also serve other beverages; I'd recommend the green Refuel smoothie. But what I really really really love are the Norwegian waffles! If you've never had a Norwegian waffle before, you need to try one. The perfect place to stop by for a drink and snack, meet up with a friend, or sit and work for a few hours.
I'm from Linn county but occasionally come to Decorah. First time being here and I was impressed. Really open floor with an upper balcony area. There is a sign outside with posted events they do throughout the week/month, stuff like wine nights. The coffee was great! They do offer a limited food menu with bagel sandwiches that are either breakfast or lunch themed. I got the Slammin Salmon on whole wheat and it was really good. That and a medium coffee cost me about $9 so definitely worth the price. I will make sure to come back to this spot whenever I'm in town!
Enjoyed a vanilla latte with oat milk! Perfectly located downtown, large space with plenty of seating options. The staff was very friendly and quick to help. Highly recommend!
The Slammin’ Salmon waffle sandwich was “one of the best breakfasts I’ve ever had” according to my travel partner. The lattes were fabulous! Unfortunately there were no gluten free food options.
I've been going to Impact Coffee since they were located in the smaller location on Washington. The new location preserves the history of the building while helping to liven up Water Street. Impact has the smoothest coffee and they have very unique seasonal drinks as well. They offer cocktails, beer, and wine in the evening as well. Their Norwegian Waffles make a great snack and their rotating offer of baked goods always hits the right spot (especially the scones). In their current rotation of seasonal drinks, I would highly recommend the Matcha in Missoula, with oat milk, a silky smooth, wonderfully flavored matcha is the perfect way to start your day. Or if coffee is more your speed, they make a mean pour over. If you are looking for a nighttime activity to do on a weekend trip to Decorah, there's a good chance you may end up here - from live music to bingo (and trivia on Thursday's), Impact will keep you entertained.
