I was suggested the Coffee Hound by a local while I was in town for an IEA event, and I was pleased with my purchase. I appreciated the open support of the LGBTQ community in the signage, and the service was very friendly. I went with an ice vanilla latte- my starter beverage everywhere- and it was great. If you like your coffee sweet, I'd ask for some extra syrup- but it was perfect for me. The next time I'm back in Normal I'll stop in here again for sure!

Ambiance was good, but looking at their website showed a significant use of Artificial Intelligence. Personally, I don't like supporting companies that take away jobs from creative digital designers and give them to soul-less robots. Also was told by a friend that they have Al generated Tee Shirts and other merchandise... minus one star for AI use Barista and food: 10/10 Al use: 0/10

I was fine with my drink and service but my friends were unimpressed and found the employees not friendly/welcoming and said they needed to wake up. We opted not to come back and ended up at Starbucks other mornings.

When they are good, they are SO good but this is probably the most inconsistent coffee shop in town…read more(apart from McDonalds or Dunkin). I typically order their specials (love a good cold brew extreme) but the SAME drink will taste different almost every time I order it. For example- this morning I ordered the Caramel Apple Cold Brew Extreme. It was AMAZING! My husband tried it and wanted one so I ventured back the same day in the afternoon to get 2 more (one for me, one for him- don't judge me) and just prayed that the same barista would make it. It was likely a different barista as it didn't even taste similar to the drink I had in the morning. Very bitter and not good at all. I wish I could say this is a one off situation, but it almost always happens when I find a drink I like. One time fantastic, next time terrible. Anyhoo- they could totally be five stars at their best but I have to leave 3 because you never know what you're gonna get.

Drive-thru coffee shops are blooming on here recently…read more I suppose that having visited a few drive-thru coffeehouses, this opens the prior closed door on visiting them for my blog. I figured that the lack of being able to experience the vibe and feel for them shouldn't exclude them from my sampling as they can have their own style and their own uniqueness. On a trip to Bloomington with my dad to get lunch, I needed coffee. I slept all morning so trying to get one before we left was a no-go. I figured that since we are visiting Bloomington, I would just visit one that I still have on my list and Blooms Coffee Bar was my choice for today. I drove around the building to see if there was a walk-up window but no such luck. I pullled up to one window (there was one on each side) and the kind barista asked me to pull around to the other side as that's the proper side to order from. I zoomed on over and asked for a moment to look over the menu before deciding what sounded good. Shockingly, I didn't get my usual americano. I was in town for pigging out and decided to treat myself to the Salty Sweet. My dad said he had 3 cups of coffee already and wasn't in the mood for more. It wasn't busy so the lady said I didn't need to pull around to the other window I was just at to pick up my order. So THAT'S how they operate. The drink was made fairly quick and I dipped to the parking lot behind Bloom's to enjoy my drink as we waited for Flinger's to open at 11am. This drink was just the thing to start my day. It was a perfect balance of sweet and salty (which is how I mis-ordered the drink by saying the name backwards). I even went against my usual order style and got a medium instead of a large. I should've gotten the large cause it went down smooth and fast. I pulled around to the front of the building to try and snap a few photos but ended up pulling out too far so my phone's camera put in some work on getting some decent quick snaps for this blog. I am glad that I've started to add these drive-thru only places to my list as each one has been delicious so far. Take this as a lesson to not limit yourself based on silly notions and assumptions.
