The tea had stevia in it (wtf??) which I personally think is the most disgusting and disappointing sweetener out there. Super weird for it to be a part of the tea bag, IMO. Ambiance? I would LOVE to spend more time there. I love local artists and the vibe there is really great. Soothing, relaxing, chill... but... I go to a coffee shop for the coffee and/or tea and if that's not great and if the barista is annoyed... I'm not going to stick around for the ambiance. (Also, with a name like Avionics, I was expecting a little more decor along that line. So if you're interested in aviation and airplanes, don't come here thinking you've found a fellow aficionado.)

It hit all the checkmarks for us. Even after a day old it was still reallly good. Server was also super helpful in getting us suggestion for another specialty drink. We avoided the sweeter ones so landed on the London smog latte with steamed oat milk, 2 shots of expresso, earl gray and cane syrup. The earl gray flavor was just perfect with the coffee and oat aroma. One of the best flavors coffee we've had. After the tea got steeped for a while it got a bit too strong but I still liked it at a lot. I love that it's aromatic without being overpowered by sweetness.

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!

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!

Casey, Illinois, is a small town full of superlatives, like "world's largest" and "biggest" and so…read moreforth. Well, I have another superlative declaration, this time for Casey Coffee Company: This coffee shop serves the best bacon, egg and cheese bagel sandwich that I've ever eaten. Ever! It's also the biggest BEC I've ever eaten. This sandwich is huge and can easily feed two people. I got my baconeggandcheese on a jalapeno bagel, but you can choose from several different kinds of bagels, including a rainbow bagel, if you're so inclined. Inside the bagel sandwich, the eggs are scrambled, the bacon is chopped, and the cheese is melty and plentiful. The bagel is toasted and has a bit of a sheen to it from being doused with butter or something equally delicious. The bagel itself is chewy but also slightly crispy. The whole thing is amazing, and I just wanted to keep eating it, even though it was so big and I was so stuffed. (Pause.) Even better: I think this BEC was like less than $10, which is a steal. They don't know what they have here at Casey Coffee Company, or maybe they do and they just want to pass on the savings to you and make you come back to Casey to look at the big things. I think I also got a black coffee, but this baconeggandcheese sandwich overshadowed everything else that I ate that day, so I'm pretty sure the coffee was good, but I can't tell you for sure, because all I have in my head when I think of Casey Coffee Company is a bagel sandwich.
