Ever driven by, and wondered what was inside the hub? Go in! There is a cozy little coffee bar, with seating (following all covid 19 protocol) the crew is super nice, and always remember my order. If you love food made from scratch, this is the place to pick up a super yummy sandwich. Comfort food is the category I would put this food in to. A definite must for the coffee lover!

Just wanted to extend a huge thank you to the staff and patrons of the hub. When I had a emergency medical issue they called for a ambulance right away and stayed with me till they got there. I dont remember much but I remember hearing a very kind womens voice talking to me. Thank you so much

Very nice visit. Big city atmosphere in a smaller town community. Beautiful layout. Spacious. Clean. Friendly staff. And, good coffee, too! Not busy, although visited at 4p on a Friday afternoon.

If you stop and look around, you’ll find this gem in the heart of Ottumwa and say the world is a nice place, even when it sometimes isn’t.

If you are looking for a coffee shop to call home in southeast Iowa, Hub Coffee is where its at. Their focus is on serving quality coffee, drinks, and food. Most of their syrups are made in-house, their roaster is Messenger Coffee of Kansas City, their pastries are from the local Main Street Donuts, and their sandwiches are made with homemade bread that is made in the shop. They are also community focused with all of their profits going to a local fund that supports the local community in various ways. Their building was the old YWCA and has been restored beautifully--even on a busy day, there are plenty of places to sit with a variety of different settings (tables, booths, corner nooks, etc.). There is even a basketball gym with foam mats and blocks for kids to play on!! This is the kind of shop one would expect to find in Kansas City or Des Moines--and yet its here in southeast Iowa, in little ol Ottumwa.

Awesome staff and friendly. Beverages and food taste wonderful.

Love Love love the Bridge Church!! Attended a Financial Learning Experience at the Hub. It was amazing!!

Shade tree iced coffee is delicious!! They also have boba which is so good!

Best coffee place ever! Love everyone that works here and the vibe is great!

Excellent! And they have choices not available other places. Atmosphere was great too. Perfect ambiance for studying, socializing, or just relaxing over a great drink or snack.

Fantastic space in downtown Ottumwa to enjoy coffee, tea, or light meal. The variety of seating spaces are ideal for everything from focused, independent work to informal group conversations.

Love this place! Solid menu, great staff, environment is good for hanging out with friends or working remotely. I love the Nitro Brew.

Amazing place to have in Ottumwa. If you want to host a party for your kids, or need a safe place to go work or read a book for a little bit, this place is for you! Wonderful atmosphere and staff.

Great spot to meet up, and the chai tea latte was perfection.

Great modern coffee shop!

This atmosphere and community is wonderful and welcoming always!

Well sourced with a fantastic Barista. Phenomenal coffee in a small Iowa town. Definitely worth a stop.

We attend Ottumwa crossings

Great place, clean, crisp, nyc feel to it (brooklyn), coworkers space feel too. Theres a gymnasium inside, basketball court, and they have offices upstairs. Open space, natural lighting is superb. Enhanced feeling with great coffee and amicable staff.

Nice people, good coffee

Very quiet place to do homework or read and relax. The workers/owners are very friendly and polite to talk to. The dont have too big of a menu yet, but Im sure that will grow as time goes on! Great coffee and hot chocolate in adorable huge cups! There is plenty of seating to choose from and all different styles. Our favorite is the big green booths because it gives you more privacy and quietness. :) There are all plenty of power outlets to recharge! And a beautiful warm fireplace to sit next to. :) Check it out!!!

Good latte, friendly helpful service 👍🏾 i recommend

The drinks were very good. Kenyan pourover was delicious. The room was spacious, and even though there were allot of people there was plenty of space to have a little bit of privacy to enjoy your drink. The only downside was that the girl behind the counter wasnt just very knowledgeable... Great place!!

I fell and sprained my ankle, because of the ONE step right out the door. Their were people inside and nobody came to see if I was okay, I had to reach for my phone and call my fiancé to come help me. 😔 Awful

Traveling through Iowa can be difficult for a coffee snob. Lots of coffee, few good places to get great coffee. I had a Rwandan pour over, and they let me purchase a small amount of Ethiopian beans for later. Great coffee, friendly and helpful staff. This will be a stop on future trips through Iowa.

I took my 17 month old daughter here to play in their soft play area, and she had an absolute blast! Its so nice that our small little town has a place for children to go and play. And my chai latte was delicious!

There for the Grow Conference it was a great experience.

The turkey sandwich is amazing. It has some sort of jelly on it and is so yummy. Great coffee and very modern and nice inside. Staff are super nice too.

Nice coffee shop. Was there for an ottumwa library show for kids. Tremendous venue..after the show the kids played in the well equipped gym. A real asset to ottumwa.

Incredible coffee. Great vibes. Seriously impressed with this coffee shop! They serve some amazing coffee. Couldn’t recommend this place more!

Great coffee, good prices, pleasant and very clean atmosphere.The staff was Superior. Big city feel small town friendly.Great experience.

Just tried a New Orleans for the first time and it is Amazing. One of my favorite baristas at hub coffee made me one. There isnt anything I havent liked. Great Job Hub Coffee!

Definitely my favorite place to get coffee, meet friends, or whatever! I always look for excuses to visit The Hub. I love the staff, the environment, and the beverages! Its just all amazing! They are something different.

Exceptional coffee, exceptional people, and exceptional service. However, weekdays at noon they often open their auditorium doors and play music over the coffee shops already existing music. This becomes a major distraction and has forced me to leave on a couple of occasions.

Nice atmosphere and service, along with quality teas!

Absolutely the best hands down. Highly recommend

Amazing coffee!

Great Place! Feel like Im in a coffee shop in Atlanta. Love the furniture and all the cozy spots. The nitro coffee is really cool, tastes almost like beer. The lattes are really good too. Ottumwa needs more stuff like this

I drink coffee. Medium and dark roast 99 percent of the time. Hot or cold brew.No milk, cream, soy or flavorings.I have seen many favorable reviews about Hub Coffee and decided to check it out.Although they only had light roast ( city or full city roast) I did enjoy the coffee. I tried two different single origin pour over brews. One Guatemalan and one Kenyan. Both were very good. The Kenyan had a bold blueberry aspect which I really liked.Depending on where you are from, the price for a pour over would range from very inexpensive to no more than reasonable.Im not aware of any other shops offering pour over coffee in the area. I occasionally make it at home so I wanted to see if there was any difference.The place is very clean and open. Lots of table space and seating. Soft music being played. Overall very nice ambience.The manager/barista was quite friendly and helpful.A steady stream of people coming in without it being crowded.Definitely a good place to get a cup.

This place has wonderful customer service, a great atmosphere and awesome drinks! And if all of that wasnt enough, the proceeds go to help those in need!!! Parking can be a bit challenging but its worth it!

The prices were very reasonable and the food and drinks are delicious! The atmosphere is calming. My son finally found his favorite California food, boba! Its the little bubbles in the Bubble tea.

Good coffee and great service.

I actually really enjoy this place, there is some nice study spaces and the coffee is great!

Fantastic coffee. Lots of options. Tiffany is awesome!

What a great space .Very cozy.

The boba smoothies are good and this is there only place in town that has boba. They could have more options and use fresh fruit. The layout is great and had a very modern feel. They have a loyalty program which is nice.

Amazing coffee and extremely clean space you would expect in the downtown of a much bigger city. Ill definitely be back.

Absolutely amazing. Wonderful atmosphere and even better coffee. Definitely would recommend.

It awesome coffee and it feels like Gods with you when you are there

I love it. Everyone makes you feel welcome.

Ive heard great things about Hub Coffee so I thought I would try it out. The coffee was good, but my chia latte was luke warm by the time I left to the time I got to work (a 15 minute drive). I was disappointed by the size of the coffee for the price considering that it wasnt even hot when I went to drink it. I like to give places the benefit of the doubt, so I will give it a couple more tries before determining by opinion about Hub Coffee.

Best coffee in town, cant go wrong with a Carmel Cortado.

Loving atmosphere great food and even better company

Nice place, good coffee and muffins. Very clean, good staff.

We do youth here and it is the best thing of my week we meet every Wednesday night 6:00-8:15

Amazing people great environment and of course amazing coffee

Ive never been disappointed in this place. Quite honestly, Im shocked Ottumwa has such an amazing coffee shop. The moment you walk through the doors you feel like youre in a trendy NYC coffee shop. The aroma, the atmosphere, the baristas appearance- Its all perfect. What is amazing is that Hub Coffee is a christian company- backed by local church, The Bridge. As your ordering, take notice of the architecture of this building. What was once the local YWCA has turned into a coffee shop, but you can clearly tell that Hub Coffee intended to expose the natural beauty of the building. My favorite part of the building is the bare brick walls. As someone who loves preserving old buildings, houses, and learning about the history, Id say Hub Coffee has done a great job of keeping this building alive.While their menu appears very limited, dont be afraid to order off menu. Might I recommend an iced dirty chai latte? They make the best in town. Dont be afraid to chat with your barista, either. Theyre all incredibly friendly and genuinely care.Local Ottumwa businesses, take note. Hub Coffee has done it right! Ottumwa locals, dont miss the opportunity to visit Hub Coffee. Yes, we have Starbucks in town, but shopping local only helps our local community. And dare I say it? I feel Hub Coffee makes their drinks better than Starbucks!If any Hub Coffee owners or employees are reading this review: Thank you for creating this coffee shop. Hands down, the best.

Some real good coffee!

The atmosphere and drinks are of a standard youd expect in downtown Chicago.

I love this place I really do
