Hands down, best coffee shop in the 217.
best coffee in champaign
A good place for great coffee in my fake office away from home. Important notes. Good wifi. Free parking. Independently owned.
Pro's: The coffee beans they use is of the highest quality. The people who work there are locals! The space is beautiful and creative! Con's: The quality of the food ordered, needs to improve. E.g. The Egg Sandwich, especially for the price!
Everyone says this place has great coffee, and I have had it and found it agreeable. Usually I get tea, though, and the barista is always nice about asking if I want it in milk with honey or sugar. I got one of their plant based options (oat and almond) with honey for my yerba mate and it was great. I would say it is a little small for its peak hours, so you might not be able to find a place to sit. I think they do set up some outside tables on First street when the weather is nice which helps, though.
Probably the best *coffee* shop in town. The atmosphere is nice too.
They charge $8 for a bagel. The place is dark, gloomy, and overcrowded. No place to sit or do any work. It looks nothing like the photos from the other "reviews". Either these reviews are fake, or the photos are highly processed, to look bright and colorful. The place looks like a dump.
I enjoy visiting here every time we are back in town. Delicious espresso and tea along with friendly service and all around good vibes. They know good coffee beans and have good snacks. Highly recommend.
Great Bagels, Lox, and Coffee! ☕️
I've known the owner for a long time now and the work he's put into this place for his customers and his employees is beyond what anyone could expect. Also, the coffee is tasty
This coffee shop is very close to my boyfriend’s house, so if they’re open and we can make it on Saturday mornings, we love to go and order their signature rosemary mocha. It’s our favorite! The drink isn’t always consistent—the taste can be slightly different from one visit to the next—but the main issue I have with this cafe is the baristas. They are not very welcoming or friendly, nor do they ever try to engage with their customers. It’s a little disappointing, especially considering we’re regulars. The coffee is pricy but we still come in because we know this is the only place we can get this specific mocha.
Amazing atmosphere, great coffee!
very good vibes, lots of outlets and big tables for studying but can be busy at times
Love this coffee. So well made. Thanks!
Best coffee in Champaign-Urbana
Amazing coffee! Tried a hot vanilla latte. The best I’ve had in a long time.
I'll have to give this place another go some time. It is such a cute cafe with a quiet environment. I was not a fan of their chai latte unfortunately. It tasted like it was watered down.
A good Brazilian drip, a below average breakfast sandwich with no bacon or sausage option, and yet another surly barista….
absolutely my favorite place in cu! whenever i visit home i come here! vegan friendly & the best matcha in my memory :)
Stopped in quickly this morning while passing through town and this coffee shop did not disappoint. I had the Sweet Heat latte at the recommendation of the barista. I’ve had a lot of lattes before but nothing with layers of flavors like this. Enjoyed the decor. Clean and pleasant to look at.
