We were in town for Memorial Day weekend so we decided to check out Kiki's Coffeehouse. I was…read morepleasantly surprised to see the menu with all of the options. The barista was very friendly and was patient when we needed a moment to make our final decisions. I got the toffee nut caramel specialty drink which was delicious but a little on the sweet side. I was able to get it half caffeinated, too! Check this place out if you're in the area!

Me eggs were more over-easy than over-medium unfortunately, but not that big of a deal. Thick-cut bacon was probably some of the best diner bacon I've had. It's not a big place, maybe about 15 tables. There's not a ton of staff and the kitchen got stacked with tickets right before we came in, so breakfast probably took about 40 minutes to arrive--that was the only downside. Service was friendly. I would definitely come back.

It would awesome to see a soy-, almond-, or oat-based ice cream, too! Snacks, juice, and water are available but are pricy since they're just a small shop. Oh, and I never buy any of it because I'm not a "spicy" person, but they have all kinds of hot sauces, too, from all over. The owner has always been welcoming although he has seemed bored or just "done" some days.

Not for Coffee enthusiasts , but the Bourbon Vanilla Latte is Decent. If you decide to stop here,…read moredo yourself a favor and order the bourbon vanilla latte.. and that's it. It's a decent drink, but calling it proper coffee would be a stretch. The biggest disappointment is the lack of craft. Their machine pulls the shots for the "barista," meaning there's no real skill or artistry involved... just pushing a button. For us, this really takes away from the experience. As cortado lovers, we gave theirs a shot, and it was a complete miss. Watery, poorly textured milk, and no effort at all in presentation. To top it off, they don't even serve it in a proper cortado cup!! It came in a full sized cappuccino cup, which just looked ridiculous. We can't recommend this spot for anyone who appreciates well crafted coffee, but if you're in need of a quick caffeine fix and have no other options, the bourbon vanilla latte is the safest bet.

It also seems like a popular location to study for SIU students. Has pretty basic options along with seasonal favorites. The prices are pretty okay for around here and it's pretty good quality. Any college town needs to have a place to get coffee. It's not like there's many other good options. This is one reason why it's the best in town. Good options among the flavors. It's about $6 for a latte. The last time here I got the Black Forest Mocha. Had lots of chocolate flavor. The food options are paltry. It's about $2 for a bagel. They also have a few other things such as muffins. For this town it's not bad. It's located on East Grand Avenue at Wall Street. The main menu item is coffee, but there's bagels, plus some pastries and other things.

Their coffee of the week was White Chocolate Irish Cream, and I could not resist that! It came out hot, but not so hot that I could not drink it, and it was just the right sweetness. Their "little somethings" were a variety of muffins, scones, and cinnamon rolls. Maybe something else, but I stopped his recitation over the phone after he said "cinnamon rolls". Another winner, but next time I will take up their offer of heating it up. At the time I wasn't sure I was going to eat it right away, but I do love some drippy icing! They are still take-out only, and you can either call in your order, which I did, or you can appear outside their door and they will come out to take your order. I was very happy that the young lady who came out with my goodies was wearing a mask! Service was quick, and what I had was good, so give them a try if you're in the area!
