The Abner Bell's Coffee Cart is cruising the town of Storm Lake.  Whether serving the thirsty, caffeine-depleted students and professors of Buena Vista University or helping out at a Storm Lake High School Students fundraiser, the Coffee Cart is always a hit.

"Turtle latte…white chocolate macadamia nut latte…" Scott Stevens, Abner Bell’s cart’s regular evening attendee, said, naming just a few of the favorite recipes among regulars.
   "We get a lot of business," Stevens said. Mark Redenbaugh, owner of  Abner Bell’s Coffeehouse in downtown Storm Lake,  said that the opening of the cart has been "a new adventure," adding that he has been pleased with the results.
   The cart features a used but industrial-sized espresso machine Redenbaugh bought when he was awarded permission to serve Abner Bell’s drinks at BVU.  He mans the espresso presses himself weekday mornings from 7-10 a.m. and said a lot of faculty and professors in the school of business are regular customers during those hours.
   If you would like to sample an espresso drink for yourself, the cart is open everyday from 7–10 a.m., and for those late study sessions, every Monday, Tuesday and Thursday night from 7–11 p.m.
