Cute shop with many options.
Got boozy at 11 in the am very cool
We went for gellato, and I wasn't a fan. The staff is the best. Vibe was there. The gellato was hard and the taste wasn't all there for me. I felt it overpriced. The espresso was delicious. I won't go back for the gellato but definitely coffee, homework, meetings. I get it for that.
I don't typically play favorites, although Brilliant Coffee, tastes as genuinely clever and of character as the name suggests. Cheers to Brilliant Ideas in 2023!
The coffee is quite good, but don't trust that they're open based on the hours on their door, or Facebook page. Rumor has it that their Instagram posts more accurate hours. If I knew when I could get coffee instead of disappointment, I'd rate 5 stars.
Stopped in to grab two coffee’s to go. First time and the barista was super helpful and friendly. Great recommendations. I will be back!!
good coffee! they have beer and alcoholic coffee drinks and gelato i need to try eventually
Made my drink iced instead of hot. Mine and my husband’s drinks were rough. The espresso was too smoky. Cinnamon roll was ok. Coffee cake was average.
One of the baristas recommended I add cinnamon and sea salt to their iced honey vanilla oat latte, and it is one of the best drinks I've ever had. I can't recommend it enough!
Great gelato and espresso and a really pleasant place to hang out.
Brilliant!!! Great quick stop for coffee and small breakfast. Coming back for gelato! Staff was awesome.
Nostalgic experience from Italian ice cream to spiked alcoholic coffee, and rare flavors. Love their lavender lemonade! Not to mention the Asian nourishment bar next door!
Excellent ice cream! I tried six flavors, all top notch. It's among the priciest for ice cream, but at least they deliver on quality. The decor is pleasant, particularly the wood counter and the tiling. Staff was courteous. Maybe not a place for everyday at this price point, but great when I feel like a treat.
I usually come here after the Bloomington Farmers market. Gelato is pretty authentic, and the coffees are pretty good.
Wow! This place is above and beyond. My husband and I come in here often for a quick drink. Atmosphere is wonderful. I recommend the B-town Buzz drink, as its made with whiskey and CBD, and of course espresso. And boy, do they have a heavy hand. I also enjoy the Cozy Cabin Latte, it has an excellent flavor, with no alcohol. Haven't tried the Gelato yet, but it looks wonderful as Well!
Passing through from Boston. I got the iced honey vanilla oat latte.. Finally a coffee that hit just right. So delicious! Great little space to escape this crazy heat. I was very happy with my experience and the barista was super helpful explaining the menu items.
Good location and friendly baristas! Very clean and organized. Lots of seating available in a side room. I love their peach lemonade:)
Sweet, fresh baked goods; flavorful, non-bitter, smooth coffee; and delicious gelato, you just can’t go wrong!
Absolutely delicious gelato!! I had the raspberry flavor and almost died because it was so good. Perfect for a yummy cold treat on a hot day.
Great atmosphere. Beautiful wood tables and lamp. The tiramisu and mint chocolate gelato were delish.
