Plain Talk Books & Coffee, a truly distinctive neighborhood book store, sandwich and coffee shop, was established in 2009 in Des Moines’ historic East Village.
The Handyman Reuben was exactly what I expected. Simple but good. Arrived warm. Quite filling. I also selected the generic "chips" option to have as a side, not knowing what I'd get, and I ended up getting Miss Vickie's Sea Salt chips (which I was very happy with). Great value for your money. Will order gain.

Papa was delicious. Plenty of flavor, and the bacon was crisp. It came both wrapped AND safely boxed. Raven was perfect for me. I had 2 shots of espresso in it, and they tasted fresh. Too many other places let it get bitter. I'll order here again.

Ordered The Papa and The Gonzo, and it was honestly some of the best food Ive had in quite some time. Packaged nicely with a handwritten note on the outside wishing me a good morning and good eating. I felt like I was 8 years old opening my school lunch box my mom packed. I found my new breakfast usual, their menu is astounding.

Excellent breakfast sandwiches, a great tasty spiced chai, and lovely books to browse while you wait. It's become my favorite spot when I'm in DSM.
