a cup of espresso
Runzer W.

A great spot for study or work! Just grabbed a small cup of iced Americano and worked on my laptop for the whole morning. But the AC was a little too cold for me TT during that time. The guys at the front desk are quite energetic and friendly!

Espresso Royal is conveniently located in Champaign, IL. The atmosphere in the coffee shop is that of the average coffee shop. It has plenty of tables and chairs for people to sit and get work done or just enjoy the company of others. It also has comfortable living room type chairs in front of a fireplace and bookshelf. When I travel to local coffee shops around the country I always try what each shop has that is the "thing" that sets them apart. At Espresso Royal they have bourbon barrel coffee. It was different and delicious. I would return to this coffee shop next time I'm in Champaign and I suggest people check it out.

The staff is excellent! The atmosphere is excellent! The espresso is subpar-undrinkable unless doctored up. Iced vanilla latte was pleasant.

This was the first time that I've gone to the Mad Goat Champaign location. I am from Danville…read moreand Frequently go to Mad Goat North & South in Danville. I was in Champaign early and needed to kill some time and what better way to do that than Hang out at Mad Goat! I am a basic coffee dude and just drink regular coffee and it was very good as per usual. The staff were very friendly and it has an awesome over all vibe! I paid to park across the street and then realized they do have some of their own free parking so note to self for next time! that one was on me! I am spoiled in Danville because they also have their Royal Donut brand donuts but didn't have them at this location but I saw just yesterday that Royal Donut will soon be expanding to the Champaign Urbana area so I am only going to assume it's only a matter of time until they have them at this location. FYI the Blueberry cobbler donut is amazing!!! 2 thumbs up to MAD GOAT!

We got a large cold brew, small tropical bliss smoothie, an a sausage, egg, and cheese bagel sandwich. Everything was delicious. It cost just under $20 all together. The building is cute, nice tiling on the floor, exposed brick, hanging lights, an murals on the wall. Lots of different seating options such as large tables, small tables, and couches.

Stopped in this summer while visiting a friend. She's raved about Bakelab for ages, and I was…read moreexcited to try it. The pastry selection was amazing. We got a couple of croissants and a canele, and we each ordered an espresso drink. It was everything she promised - and more. The croissant was flaky and buttery. The canele had the signature caramelized exterior and soft inside. I intended to only have a bite and save the rest for later, but I couldn't resist finishing it. Would definitely come back on my next visit. In the meantime, I'll just have to ask my friend to bring pastries to me when she visits!

The service was quick and friendly, the barista described the options available and had good recommendations! Good study space with WiFi, bathrooms, and a water fountain around the corner. Just be prepared to wear a jacket on either end of the cafe near the doors, can get windy upon opening! Thai Tea Caramel Canelé {5/5}: The best canelé I've ever had (okay, I admit, I've only had maybe 6 in my life). Great caramel and good Thai tea flavor. The texture was AMAZING with a nice slight crisp and chewy outside and almost custard-like inside. I got 2 more before I left Green Onion Kouign-Amann {4/5}: A caramel shell outside of this very flakey pastry that I had plenty of green onions mixed within the dough. It was a great play on sweet and salty flavors with delicious flakey layers Jade Cloud {3/5}: Peach oolong tea with matcha cold foam. Just a personal preference thing, but the flavor combination of peach, oolong, and matcha was not my favorite. I can see how someone who likes this flavor profile would find this drink refreshing!
