Had to hang out for many hours waiting for my husband to finish up at a job site. Everyone was polite, and friendly. Coffee is delicious and food is tasty. Thank you! I would definitely hang out there again anytime.

Amazing place! The owner and staff are uniquely friendly and the atmosphere provides tranquility with plenty of table space for work, collaboration, or catching up with friends. There is a great little kids play space so parents can get a break to chat.

My hubby and I moved to Fort Madison 7 months ago and one of the first things on my list to find was a good local coffee shop and let me tell you, Swed & Co. delivered on all fronts! Swed & Co. is everything I want in a coffee shop — modern & laid back atmosphere with lots of light, seating and outlets, downright GOOD coffee, tasty food & pastries, and friendly customer service. My go-to order is their Caramel Latte (half sweet) with the ham & cheese or chicken salad sando. Love their little boutique shop too, I’ve picked up some cute gifts for friends there like stickers, magnets, greeting cards and totes. We always bring our friends or out of town guests here and they all absolutely love it. 10/10 would recommend!

Decent coffee, amazing food! In my opinion this place gave me a early 00’s vibe which I totally loved when sitting down and writing my essay. I had the avocado toast with a hard boiled egg which was great along with a vanilla iced coffee. The staff was friendly and nice. I’ll be coming here more often when I’m in town again! Thanks for a experience!

This place is an absolute gem. You can't beat the atmosphere. They've put so much effort into make a space that is hip and fun and cool and welcoming. As a coffee-lover, I appreciate the quality of coffee they make (which isn't always a given at cute coffee shops). The baked goods are delicious and I always have a hard time choosing. Highly recommend!

They have great options! My daughter got a peach lemonade with lemon boba and I got the brown sugar milk tea. Both were delicious. My daughter got avocado toast. Everything had great presentation and the workers were super friendly. There was only two of them and quite a bit of customers. They handled it all very smoothly!

This is what you want. Most of the time when I come into the area to visit I have to go to a chain coffee shop or even most local shops that all use mass produced syrups and everything just tastes like hot sugar in a cup. Not here. Their syrups are homemade, their coffee is roasted in house, and their drinks are crafted to perfection. The avocado toast is great too. What an awesome find.

Stepping into Swed & Co. Coffee is hands down the best thing you can do while visiting Fort Madison. The shop itself is impressively built and welcoming. You can come in to work, do homework, bring in the family, or just grab a cup to go. The coffee is roasted on-site, so it is always fresh, and their food menu is top notch. Will definitely be visiting again while in town!
