It’s the perfect way to explore local favorites and discover new gems, all while supporting small businesses. Passes are limited, so grab yours before they’re gone!

Customers are permitted to one (1) Coffee Hop® pass in their name for each calendar year. Each customer is required to provide their name. Coffee Hop, LLC reserves the right to deny a customer a product if they have already purchased one.

Coffee Hop® pass valid through December 31, 2026
Each individual shop on the Coffee Hop® pass is not affiliated with any of the others. No shop necessarily endorses any of the others.

PURCHASE

Consider purchasing an item along with your free drink. The shops we have selected offer a wide variety of things: homemade pastries, lunch and snack items, local artwork, and even books!

GRATUITY
You may not be paying for your drink with the pass, but the barista making it will work just as hard! Consider bringing along some cash or loose change for a tip. We recommend a dollar or two per drink. (Some shops may donate gratuity to a good cause, while paying their baristas a higher wage. In those cases pass holders are still expected to be generous!)

POST
Take a photo or video of your experience at each shop. We'd love to see them, so post them on your feed or story, and don't forget to tag both the shop you're visiting as well as us! We may ask to feature your post on our page.

RATE
Online reviews are a big help to our shops. Leave a note explaining the highlights of your experience on Google, Facebook or Yelp. Be sure to spread the word to your family, friends, and coworkers too!

RETURN
We hope you enjoy your experience so much that you keep our shops in mind whenever you're in the neighborhood. Shops love regular customers, so consider visiting them again, and try something new on their menu!

HAVE FUN!
We want using the Coffee Hop® pass to be like going on an adventure! Bring a friend along on your journey, take photos or videos of your experiences, and enjoy exploring new places in Des Moines!
There shall be no refunds, returns, replacements, or exchanges of Coffee Hop® passes after they are sold.

Coffee Hop® passes are non-transferrable.

Each Coffee Hop® Pass holder is only entitled to having one Pass in their name. The Pass is only valid with the Pass holder’s name printed on the first page of the Pass. The coffee shops reserve the right to ask for a government-issued photo ID to ensure the Pass holder is the original owner of the Pass. If a coffee shop or Coffee Hop notices someone abusing the Coffee Hop® Pass, Coffee Hop reserves the right to ban that person from Coffee Hop in the future.
