I ordered a pumpkin chai off of their seasonal menu - it's served hot and I also added an espresso shot. I LOVED the chai - it had a lovely flavor and the spices really came through and paired beautifully with the pumpkin flavor. Even though a couple people were ahead of me, I didn't have to wait long and was able to get my order in around 5 minutes. I can't wait to try some of their coffees next time!

Both made quickly by the lovely barista in a minimalist tiny Hobbit store perched along an annoying expensive street, why is all downtown Bloomington parking paid? What a mess to try attracting tourists who have to shell out for a Monday completely empty of any traffic. At least Hopscotch proves the down payment worth it! There's no ambience here which is a bummer, could see myself sticking a nose into a book for hours eventually ordering another latte but not even a stool to sit. Both drinks were sublime, unique twists on common herbs and spices to enhance the java juices, this is the stuff that gets me excited for the brew!

There were two cars in the parking lot, so I went to the entrance off 16th Street but couldn't get in. I then tried the lab door, where I could clearly see two male employees inside. They looked directly at me but didn't acknowledge me, offer assistance, or let me know if they were closed. I sat in my car for several minutes finishing this review, and no one came to check or communicate anything. Extremely disappointing experience , no customer service, no professionalism, and no clarity about whether they were even open. Based on this experience alone, I would not return.

A grind of their South Asian coffees are amazing. Their food selections are good, but an after-thought, unlike Hopscotch and down the list, Soma. This is a noisy place. There are picnic tables outside, but inside, it's often populated by laptops, loud conversation, and fueling all this commotion, the best coffee in town. I haven't had a bad cup yet, and I've had plenty. Bring money, but it's worth it. Competence should be rewarded.

Also, I wish they were more covid-conscious, as the woman working there didn't have her mask over her nose, and she kept getting too close and touching me. (Nothing inappropriate, but in the times of a global pandemic, I don't want strangers touching me.) I will definitely be back, but PLEASE be more conscious of the health situation!
