It is generally a good place to get some work done. There are charging ports everywhere, and the place is really cute. The chai latte is amazing!

Went here recently - it was packed! We had a hard time getting a seat, lots of students that study here—especially on weekends! Finally got a seat and had a nice lunch. Ordered the Ham & Egg Sandwich, and for $8, it was HUGE! The sandwich was also delicious, ham was present, eggs were cooked perfectly, and the toppings also made the sandwich that much better. Service and atmosphere are both nice as well. Will be back for sure!

They were very nice. I got their yogurt smoothie a few months ago and it was very refreshing. Tangy and not overwhelmingly sweet! I just ordered it again and it was less tangy than I remember but they happily remade it and even let me compare the versions with only yogurt powder, and with added vanilla yogurt (which was what made it tangy). It was indeed the vanilla yogurt that made it so good, highly recommend!

I wish I lived near this place! I got the New York Cheesecake as well as the Taro Bubble Tea Smoothie, both were absolutely amazing! I've never had better boba. My friend also got the Hot Chocolate and a Mr.Chefs Cheese Cake, they also enjoy their food lots, and agree this place is amazing! Not to mention, the food came out quickly and we only had to wait a minute or two! The place itself is also a very calming nice place to relax or study, the aesthetic of its interior is also easy on the eyes and nice to look at! I would most definately reccommend this place for hanging out with friends or studying/reading.

It would've been perfect if WiFi worked well. WiFi signals were not very stable.

Don’t come here for the boba. It’s cheap but mediocre at best.

They offer a great variety of foods, which is always good. The coffee is good and served in generous portions.

This is one of the best coffee places in Urbana, with an extremely courteous and friendly staff. They serve a coffee latte that is out of the world, internet friendly, reasonably priced and a very informal ambience. Will visit it everyday I happen to be here.

The bingsu is terrible. The ice is huge and barely eatable with the strawberry jam and ice cream. It was basically inedible. And for $15? never going back here

I walked into the store at 20:30, December 19th. There was only one guy working at the counter. And when I tried to order some stuff, he was busy with the ordering screen and yelled at me “wait a second, could YOU WAIT A SECOND?” with a loud voice and angry face. There was no other customer before or after me, and I was doing nothing except trying to get my order placed. I don’t know why he was so angry at me. I’ve came to Bene for more than 20 times since September and I really love the bubble tea and honey bread, but I’ve never been treated like this before.

Drinks and food are decent, but SO overpriced sometimes. Paid literally $5 for a frappe made with powder and ice and they said whipped cream is EXTRA/an up-charge. Whipped cream????? Starbucks is cheaper and includes whipped cream. 😅

Good frappe! Wish they'd add whipped cream but it's really good. Nice atmosphere, open late 👍
