Linh here. I got a Coffee Hop pass for Christmas last year, so I've been visiting a range of coffee shops across the metro.
First up, I went to 5 Borough Bagels in Clive.
☕ Coffee: Solid. I got an iced latte with a pump of sugar-free cookie dough syrup (sorry, coffee snobs).
✨ Vibes: Bright, clean and busy when I visited after a Saturday morning jog. It reminded me of the hustle of a New York bagel shop, minus the bluntness.
What my mom would think: Too crowded. Needs comfier seats.
