Art Mart has become a staple in this part of Champaign. The lot is almost always full, and for good reason. You can meet up for a cup of coffee and a treat, you can shop for specialty grocery items, you can pick out just about any type of wine or beer, you can pickup some desserts, you can pick up some toys for birthday gifts, and they have an entire section of housewares that would almost always be the perfect gift for just about any occasion. I don't even remember what was in this space before they got here, but I hope they stick around forever.
One of the best places in Champaign county! I could (and frequently have) spent hours here!
Super adorable shop! It’s big and it has an amazing variety of all kinds of home goods, gifts and cards, clothing, jewelry, food, sweets, chocolates, wines, and so much more. It also had a very spacious sitting area inside and outside if you want to dine in. The prices are slightly expensive, but I think most of their items are worth it. I’ll definitely come back again!
My family comes to Urbana once a year to visit family, and we always stop here while in town. Their baked goods are the best (my mom loves the cherry sugar cookies)! And, on a personal note, my great-grandma worked here back in the 1980s (back when it was at the mall). Besides baked goods, they also have lots of clothes, toys, sandwiches, etc. The best store in town!
I am a frequent customer of Art Mart, and everything they sell there is delicious! Unfortunately, as of yesterday, I have had multiple bad experiences with the woman who was attending the food. I love the establishment, but this woman wasn't just not friendly--she was rude and I felt pressured while ordering food. This kind of experience can ruin someone's impression of a store, and that's a shame because Art Mart itself really is a gem.
Best local business! They have great food and cafe drinks, and lots of good gift ideas.
I stop by Art Mart about once a week to pick up a coffee, breakfast pastry, and a to-go sandwich for lunch. The staff is efficient and kind, and I always have a great experience. The prices are reasonable and the food and coffee always delicious. A great local place in Champaign!
Very nice dessert with appropriate sugar
A high end market with quality goods in fair price!
This place is amazing! Great food and drinks, and helpful staff. Check it out…you won’t be disappointed.
a little pricey but the coffee is good and they have a very wide variety of different things!
I will never Shop at art mart again. Manager or owner had no decency to even come out and talk to me.
I love coming here for building my snack boards and did I mention the beautiful wine selection. The meats and cheeses are delicious and good quality. I also love their desserts. It’s nice to come here with friends or significant other as a fun little date. I ordered once a prepared snack board and the price was great for the quantity, just have to call in and ask because they have various catering options for snack boards. I put a picture with the review. The fruit were yummy and fresh, I can’t wait to get it again. There were nuts, cheese, fruit, meats, jams, etc. Service is great/friendly, selection is unique, interior is cute and clean.
A great place to go if you are looking to hook up with a middle aged divorcée or someone looking for something on the side. Rich ladies day drinking Chardonnay and scouting for extra curricular activities. Food and coffee and wine on point. Also a good place for weekend dads to get guilt gifts.
The lady in there was unhelpful I asked if they had an art product and she didn't even look she just said "nope we don't have that" you are an art store why would you not have what I'm looking for?
The one star is for the worst response from the store staff regarding food safety. In response to the review post of expired chocolate, Brian simply brushed it off by saying "I realize it’s 2 weeks past it’s date, but I assure you that it is fine to eat." ! No apology, no "thank you for checking our products for us"; And you can't tell a person the expired food is ok to eat! The food labeling system is there for a reason. Because I love the store, this response makes me extra sad.
Most times I am happy with my purchase and shopping experience. HOWEVER. I bought some chocolates and cookies last week as Christmas gifts to friends and after I packed and sent them out, one of my friends told me the chocolate she received already EXPIRED (some time in November). BE AWARE of this problem. I’m not blaming anyone but myself for not checking the date and get into such awkward situation, and I believe I’m not the only one who doesn’t check…
Great place for finding cute stuff and great coffee.
My goodness what a hidden treasure. Stopped in for a quick bite and lost a few hours . This store is stocked with delectable treats from around the world. A few finds were even unique to me, which doesn’t happen too much these days. So happy I dropped in, much to my surprise I acquired quite a few gifts for others . Also took home some Pastries and cookies, which were just as delicious the day after.
Delicious food and unique options!
