Stopped by this gem of a coffee shop while passing through Bishop. Their dirty hippie (vanilla & with oat milk) is one of the best chai drinks I’ve had in a while! Loved to see that there were lots of vegan & gf options

Hello, this place was pretty cool. We didn't buy anything her, we bought stuff at the dollar tree nearby and ate it here. It was pretty packed but it had a heater so 10/10 stars

We stopped for some good coffee and a bite on our way out of town. Drinks were all great and food was delicious. However I have to take one star off, when I got to Yosemite and went to eat the second half of my veggie burrito I got a sharp object in my mouth and was eating a twistie tie with metal in it. Could not finish it after that. Otherwise everything was fine and service was friendly.

Great coffee place. I very much enjoyed their latte, their smoothie and their toast. Making the latte was a bit slow -- but I was on vacations and not in a rush. I enjoyed it so much, I never got to check out the other coffee place across the street that locals had recommended.

We always stop at Looney Bean driving through Bishop and it never disappoints. The breakfast burrito is the perfect road trip meal and the coffee is always phenomenal.

This place is great! Healthy food options (including vegan), yummy baked goods, great drinks. Large enough space so it's not too crowded, free WiFi, and fun books to look through while waiting. I'll certainly be back next time I'm in Bishop.

I’m a coffee specialist and this place has the best Cortado that I’ve had in a long time. Congratulations on being devoted to your product!

Really amazing, special establishment! The food and drinks are all amazing. The reason for 4 stars is because of wait time for food. As an example from my most recent visit, the sign posted “10-15 minute wait” (which is completely reasonable), yet it took 40 minutes for my food to come out. It was only a burrito. Just a burrito! It was good, but should it take 40 minutes? I don’t think so. The worst aspect of it was that SEVERAL people who ordered AFTER me (some 20 minutes later) received their food well BEFORE I did. It seems the kitchen is struggling and needs some help. The cooks are talented and amazing but they need to be more fair and efficient in their process.

Everyone here is super nice too.

Awesome spot for food and coffee! Parking lot and they were open till 11am on thanksgiving day. Very affordable I got a breakfast burrito veggie $8 & a chai spice latte with coconut milk. They have vegan Thai bowl that is delicious! This season they also had pumpkin spice pancakes 7.50. Awesome art on the walls and great coffee!
