    Great coffee shop with delish drinks and pastries. Drinks are made fresh, made to order. Staff is super nice. Love the menu options, there is something for everyone!

    This is a cute little coffee shop that is located in a small plaza area right by an apartment complex. There is a fair amount of parking available and they have a couple of short term spots in the front of the shop to park, grab and go. They not only serve kombucha, espresso, and hot and iced coffee drinks, but they have baked goods including quiches, muffins, pies, scones, bars, paninis, coffee cakes and fruit crumbles. They also have t-shirts and other merch that you can purchase. The women working the shop were friendly enough. I will admit that my interaction with them was limited. You will find some tables on the plaza area outside of the shop that you can sit and enjoy your drink and/or baked good. The shop has a large dining area and offers free wifi to its patrons. The shop was clean and had music playing in the background. I got a Honey Bear iced coffee with a blueberry crumble. They were both ok. I was not wow'ed and had better. I did not like the the crumble part of my blueberry crumble. What i did not like about this shop as compared to other shops is that it did not have a lounge/couch area. And I know it is not the fault of the shop and is out of their control, but some of the patrons were very loud and made it difficult to concentrate at times. All things considered, this is a good shop to get your coffee fix, along with some baked goods. It would not put it in the category of being the best coffee shops, but it is still pretty good and served as a place for me to do some work while sipping on a signature iced drink.

    We selected Crumble while on vacation because they offered a gluten free option. Great location. Line moved fast. Sat at a cute little table for two next to the window. I got a vanilla latte and apple crumble and my friend got a Mexican mocha and the gf blueberry loaf. Delish!

    I ordered a pie for the Thanksgiving day holiday. I wanted to purchase a pie that didn't come from a big box store. So we have a cranberry apple pie for Thanksgiving. I was also curious to see the layout of the restaurant. The parking was great with a lot nearby. You don't have to worry about curbs and entrance if you are in a power chair or scooter. The door was handicapped accessible. The wait staff is engaging and able to check on orders and tell you about their food drink offerings. This experience is so much better than a Starbucks! I would come back and eat there again.

    Aloha Latte

    I can't speak for anything other than the coffee because I ran in and ran out, just picking up a caffeine fix, but this coffee was SO GOOD. There's nothing I hate more than ordering a specialty coffee from a coffeehouse and it being BAD. IMO - if it's a drink special to your shop, it should be the best. The aloha was just that! Not too sweet, strong coffee flavor, but perfect mix of syrups. The service was quick and the staff was friendly, and I'll definitely be back! I'd like to sit for a bit and do some work because it seemed like a cozy place. Definitely recommend!

    Sweetheart mocha (special)
    Ana C.

    I really enjoy coming to crumble whenever I have homework to do. The coffee is really delicious and not too expensive compared to other coffee shops. I will say that the wifi is a little spotty at times but it's not a huge deal! It is a smaller location so it can get busy at times, but overall it's really chill and a great place to do any work or just hang around and chat. Today I ordered the sweetheart mocha 1/2 caf with almond milk. The sweetheart mocha is a mix of white and milk chocolate with a pump of raspberry. I really liked that the chocolate isn't too overpowering and you can definitely taste that raspberry which I love. I've had some of the other lattes and specialty drinks here which are also very delicious. Next time I come, I'll have to try some of their baked goods as they always look incredible. Definitely recommend checking it out!

    Honey chai latte
    Angelo B.

    Crumble keeps it chill with low music and comfortable lighting. The drinks are typically very good and well prepared. This visit I ordered a custom chai latte and was not disappointed. However, they do make them a bit spicy here, so be prepared! Employees are straight to the point and make sure they ask any necessary questions before making your order. Seating is rhetorical only downfall. There are many tall bar stool seating areas, which I do not prefer. But the standard lower seating is pleasant. Multiple outlets also are a plus in this coffee shop.

    turtle latte and Honey Bear Latte
    Alexis R.

    Such a cute cafe and bakery! We stopped here after a day of walking around IU for some afternoon sweets. We both got a specialty latte as we were told Crumble is known for their changing menu and sweets (we had a slice of the blackberry cake and a piece or raspberry crumble bar).

    Mexican Mocha
    Sydney S.

    If I lived in the area, I would definitely be frequenting this coffee shop. My Mexican Mocha was delicious and so was the blueberry peach tart I got. I also really loved the atmosphere of the place: lots of natural light and plants. There was plenty of space to meet with friends or sit at a table and work alone.

    iced London Fog with oat milk & bacon mozzarella galette
    Karen C.

    if you love sweet creamy lattes & warm pastries while working on your laptop or chatting with friends, crumble is the place for you!! this is my go to cafe in bloomington! i love getting their lattes, iced chai, and iced london fog. they have a variety of milk substitutes, and each one retains its sweetness & creaminess! the wifi password is free and inconspicuous, and there's plenty of seating - from small to long tables! the hours are perfect for breakfast or an after class study session. my only complaint is that i wish they were open on sundays!!

    This Crumble has a much different feel to it than the one downtown. This one is located in a neighborhood that has its own collection of buildings for shopping. Very nice! There is parking to the north of the shops, so you don't have to worry about finding a spot or having the right change. Just park and take a short stroll to the shop. Inside, the shop has a few bar/counter style seats and some small tables as you enter. The order counter is to the right with a narrow hall that runs to the south end of the shop where more table seating is available for those who wish to dine in. The man behind the counter was friendly and said to let him know when I was ready to order since I wanted to check out the pastries before ordering. They had plenty of sweet pastries, but also, some savory items if I was interested in turning it into lunch. I went with a blueberry crumble and a small black coffee to go. The crumble was loaded with whole blueberries. Very moist and tasty with just enough crumble to balance out the fruit flavor. The coffee was right on the edge of being too hot, but I managed to avoid burning my tongue. The flavor was pretty good. Seems like a nice alternative location to enjoy a coffee and pastry. I'll have to swing by in warmer months to check out the patio and savory items. Review #3655

    Pear Pecan Coffee Cake
    Tiffany S.

    I see Crumble every time I go to C3, so I stopped by on a Saturday afternoon. It was crowded but not like Hopscotch where you can't find a seat anywhere for like 30 minutes - 1 hour+. I ordered a simple latte and Pear Pecan Coffee Cake. The latte was eh. I've had better lattes - even at Ink.Well. I was hoping for more bold, forward bean but it kind of just tasted muted - not sure why, I'm no coffee connoisseur but I just know I've had better. The Pear Pecan Coffee cake was divine though. Perfect coffee cake texture. Also, pear & pecan isn't a combination I've tried before, and I really enjoyed it. 25/365

    Iced Americano, cortado, stuffed veggie pastry (empanada-esque), OMG cinnamon roll
    Wally W.

    In town from VA and hit this place multiple times over the past few days. Service and venue were stellar. All the workers and variable seating arrangements made each trip unique and perfect. Tried everything from straight espressos to flavored lattes with several pastries, and all proved excellent.

    I think their cookies taste like each individual cookie has a stick of butter in them.... but the group's consensus give them 5 stars.

    Really liked it. I believe it's mostly, if not all, vegan. I know they were experimenting with some…read moreitems with dairy a while ago but I did not notice any non-vegan items while I was there, so not sure if that's still a thing. Anyway, it is a little out of the way. It's walkable from downtown but not really in the downtown core. Pretty quiet when I was there, but the atmosphere felt approachable. Some of the chairs were like school desk chairs (adult-sized, of course) that I haven't seen since I was in primary school which was kind of funny. The guy at the counter was cheerful and friendly. They looked like they had run out of some of the hot savory items by Saturday mid-afternoon, but there was still a wide variety of sweets. I believe the current owners are Indian, and you see some of those flavours featured. I got: Samosa handpie: Good, not mind-blowing, but good. Nice flavours. If you like a flaky crust, this is not it, but I liked the rustic pastry crust. Pistachio cardamom donut: Loved it. Before I moved to Bloomington, there were a few bakeries that offered vegan-GF cake donuts that I loved, and this was the first thing I've gotten here that reminded me of that. Pleasant texture and strong cardamom flavour, not too sweet. I think these are baked donuts, so they're a little different from regular fried donuts, but in a good way IMO. Rose dream latte: Milk with rose syrup topped with coconut whip and nuts, no espresso. Tasted great, but more of a dessert drink than I was expecting. The coconut whip was quite thick. The concept could probably use some refinement, because the whip was too thick and rigid to drink without a straw, but the nut pieces were too big to go through a straw, and so I couldn't figure out the best way to drink it. From what I understand, there are some longtime fans of this place who feel like the quality has dropped since the most recent change in ownership, but as someone who had never been here before, I really had a good experience. I get why people would be upset when something changes, but if you are considering trying this place for the first time, I wouldn't be too put off by the negativity around the change in ownership. There's no other place specialized in vegan baking in Bloomington, so I think it's good to support what they are continuing to do here, and even though I am partial to vegan food I wouldn't say that if it wasn't also GOOD. They also had some refreshingly unique options for baked goods.

The owners, a Sikh family, gave us their cardamom donut for free. The samosa hand pies were out. I would rate it 4/5. The decor was nice, and the owners were friendly. We were told that the staff is limited, and the owners themselves are thinking of selling this location and hoping to restart it in Greenwood, where they currently live and actually drive down to Bloomington every day. The matcha latte was fine. Everything was fine but not great. The vegan chocolate chip cookie was good, but could've used more chocolate chips.

    First time going today and everything was amazing!…read more We ordered the chicken arepa, the pabellón arepa, and three different tequenos: Venezuelan llanero cheese wrapped in dough and fried as well as guava and jalapeños tequenos. Each were very flavorful and the dough was perfect. I personally enjoyed the chicken arepa the most. We were both very pleased with our meals. The Venezuelan cheese however was not my favorite cheese ever.. so I might ask for it on the side so that it doesn't ruin your whole arepa/sandwich just in case you feel the same. The service was very accommodating and pleasant. The ambiance was clean and decorated very nicely. We will certainly be back for more!

The cookies and muffins and cinnamon roll just seem to melt in your mouth (I'm sure lots of butter is involved). They even have a very good vegan coffee cake! The drinks are not great and consistency is not the name of the game. Maybe the coffee is better than the tea, but the chai tastes more of sugar and cinnamon than tea, and the matcha was very murky, but maybe that's because I got the strawberry matcha and that affected the colour. It didn't taste bad but just didn't taste like quality matcha. They have decent teabags, but the brand and selection varies and is not what's listed on the menu board. They can do a tea latte but don't always have teas that work well with milk. I like the iced tea they make during the summer better than the hot tea. They sometimes have bubble tea, which is made with a machine and is decent (as far as artificially flavoured tea goes) but very sweet. It's a complete gamble as to whether or not the bubble tea machine will actually be on at any given time. I tried to get it in the evening once but was told they usually power it down around 6, so came back around 4:30 next time, but it was off again. I finally did manage to get bubble tea a few times around lunch time and in the morning, but there have also been days where they don't turn it on at all despite displaying the posters for it. Tapioca pearls are on the menu but they seemingly never have them, only the popping pearls. The baristas are students and are sometimes friendly, sometimes not. I would guess there's a combination of high turnover and poor training because some of them just seem very confused. They usually do okay at keeping the line moving though. I come for the baked goods, and just get a drink while I'm at it because I don't want to wait in another line at Starbucks even though I actually think Starbucks makes slightly better drinks.
