Great little corner shop with a wonderful atmosphere. The staff is very friendly and the treats are delicious. I do a lot of remote work from places like this and the Bru House is one of my favorites. Plenty of tables, outlets and places to get away from the crowd if you need some space. read more

They have a lot of room in a very nice sitting area as well as counter seats. We were waited on quickly by a very friendly guy. Our drinks were not served in ceramic cups, I guess they don't want to deal with a commercial dishwasher. So we had our paper cups with a plastic lid that ends up in the trash. The espresso had a good flavor but it was weak, too much milk, it might help to have an extra shot. For such a well roasted bean such as this, don't hide it behind a wall of milk. IMO.

Glean is located inside the Dudes Public Market in historic downtown Pocatello at 240 S. Main Street

I love this place. My family and I go here all the time. They always make your drink just the right temperature. It will never burn your tongue, but it'll never be cold either. Their waitstaff are great and I love the comfortable atmosphere. Try the cinnamon rolls, they are amazing. This place also offers alternatives to dairy milk for the lactose intolerant or those who are vegan. They also have a decent amount of edible vegan items. read more

I am sure that my fellow reviewers are speaking truth when they are talking about the wonderful experiences they have had at the Cedar St location. However, I would argue that some serious quality control must be done at the satellite location, especially if they are to carry the name and image of an established business. To have a location ruin the reputation of your business by serving stale donuts and poorly made coffee is incredibly disappointing, especially when the reviews of the main location are so promising. The idea that the quality and experience found at the main location should extend to the satellite by the same name should be a standard belief. Most of the donuts at this store were stale before the morning rush was over, and I was served an iced vanilla latte that tasted as though rotten coffee beans had been ground into an espresso concentrate so foul it carried its own aura of bitterness. While I am sure the main location provides a quality experience worth paying for, something must be done to ensure that the satellite location has the same quality control and is able to provide the same experience.
