stopped in today before my first meeting here in town and was so surprised. The shop looks small from the outside and even when you first walk in but there is a huge room in back with lots of working spaces. it was really busy at 11:00 on a Tuesday. Staff was really friendly and they offer a huge selection of drinks. Grabbed a Cappuccino and had the cutest bunny foam art on top. Espresso was really smooth and had a slight sweet taste making the drink very enjoyable. I will make sure I stop back by before heading out of town. read more

I was visiting the area because I have family there. I wanted a coffee and I heard they had good sandwiches so I figured the name was cute, the photos were cute, so why not. Now parking.. not sure where I should park, but maybe it's behind the shop or possibly it's best to park on the street by the houses, who's to say lol. So after I figured out parking, my first experience was great. Service was nice. They didn't take too long and the pastries, coffee and sandwiches were so good I had to come back before my flight. But the second time, the service was sooooooooooo slow. They didn't care at all to help me and finally after making one drink I had to ask for the rest of my order to be made. Not to mention one of the baristas left to give someone a drink in the back and didn't come back for at least 5-10 mins - I don't know where this mystery person was but the sure must have been important because the barista knew damn well there was a line of people waiting to be served but apparently didn't give a damn. It felt very purposeful and quite frankly rude but I cant speak on their intentions. Great food. Great drinks. Good atmosphere. I had to take give 3 stars tho for service. Sadly that sucked. read more

Delicious food, great coffee, and friendly service. Fun place to work. Would be 5-stars but the overt leftist iconography (complete with a bucket of "FREE NARCAN") detracts from an otherwise well-done craft. read more

A wonderful study spot during a very stressful time (final exam season... yikes!). Even though it was busy, there was a lot of seating, and my friend and I had a good spot to hunker down for a couple of hours. We both had speciality drinks (me the sugar cookie latte, her the plum matcha), and they were both very good. Everything was clean, and everyone was very friendly. I recommend checking it out! read more

I love this spot! I appreciate all of the inclusivity messaging around here as well as resources posted on the wall. My iced Matcha was very good. The ambience was lively, but not too too loud where I couldn't take work calls with my headset or lost concentration. The only thing I would like to note here is that it gets a bit too dark in here when it is overcast, so some sort of additional lighting would be appreciated! read more

Cloud Walking coffee has such a cute back room for conversations or workspace during the week. (And they're dog friendly). The staff is a delight and so nice. They also have delicious pastries. read more

Cloud Walking Coffee Shop is such a hidden gem, I almost don't want to tell anyone about it... but here we are. I got the Flora Latte -- basically a whole floral moment in a cup. Lavender, rose, jasmine, hibiscus, elderflower, rose water, orange blossom water, honey, butterfly pea flower powder, and topped with an edible flower garnish. I had it with oatmilk, and iced of course. It's giving botanical garden energy, and I was very here for it. Had to try one birthday cake macaron -- key word one, but honestly I could've walked out with a dozen. And because I can't resist a curveball on the menu, I got the Basically a suburb of Chicago dog... and yes, it absolutely slapped. Think a gourmet twist on a Chicago dog: Vander Farms Wagyu dog, mustard, pickle, house relish, onion, tomato, pickled peppers, celery seed, and dill. Cute vibes, solid flavors, and the kind of spot you accidentally spend an hour in without realizing it. Will definitely be back to try more and slowly eat my way through every single macaron flavor. read more

Okay so we are new to the area and we're looking to find a good regular coffe shop, and we tried Cloud Walking first. Drinks - Were okay, but 12 Oz for $7+ per drink was a bit extreme. Service - Everyone was really friendly. Service was a little slow though. Food - Got there too early for food, and had to go elsewhere. Ambience - Nice little artists section, and over nice inside. Parking - 3 spots in front or down the street. Not optimal. Overall a cute place but the value just isn't there and the late food time start just doesn't work for us. This with the lack of parking makes this a 1 and done for us. read more

I stopped in for a latte and cookie. I had the Vanilla Maple Matcha Latte. It was delicious! The staff were so kind while making an excellent drink. The cookie was so good. The place has a cool funky vibe. I'd highly recommend you stop by for your favorite drink! read more

I will start by saying these were hands down the BEST, most creative, delicious drinks my partner and I have had all year. So incredibly tasty even after the hot drink got cold! But the wait in this establishment was nothing short of unacceptable- only because there was seemingly no effective communication or organizational cohesion between the baristas. After waiting the first 25 minutes post ordering, I watched as a woman who walked in about 10 minutes after we did get her drink. I made eye contact with the barista who took our order and somehow... our drinks came out within the next cycle of people getting their orders. There were also flies on the beautiful pastries attached... I was tempted to get back in line and order one to eat while waiting because they looked so tasty! I did not end up ordering them.... Overall, I waited over 30 minutes here to get the best drinks I've had in a while. Not sure if I will be back, but if you have the Patience and the Time I would highly recommend :) To the owner: Please get baristas the support they need to continue making these beautiful drinks just a little faster! read more

Always fun to check out a new coffee shop went on the road. I was excited to see this option surface as we were making our drive back to Indianapolis better yet, that it's located just across the street from one of our other favorite South Bend stops -an Italian sandwich shop. This coffee shop is unique in the sense that under one roof they house, a Roastery, homemade chocolate bar, business, sourdough bread, bakery in variety of items made by local artisans. Always fun to see a hub of creativity, housing so many delicious treats in one spot. We opted for a traditional mocha, and a Mayen mocha based on what we read in the reviews. They use the in-house chocolate in both of these drinks. They are very subtle and mild mochas. Don't expect a super sweet drink. The spotless, bustling, and the back of the business features a lot of space for studying and coworking. I appreciate that they have windows with visibility into the coffee roasting process. Overall, a positive experience. My only regret is not getting to try one of the homemade marshmallows that I saw topping some of the mocha drinks. The service was straightforward. I wouldn't call it the most friendly and warm of coffee shops but not necessarily unfriendly either. read more

Great coffee. Roasted in house. Regular milk and oat milk offered. No extra charge for oatmilk! Ordered a Stardust pour over and a savory scone. Both were delicious. Only downfall is that there aren't a lot of bigger meal/food options to sustain yourself if you're studying all day. I love the space for other small businesses to display and sell their products, especially all the plants!! read more

Cloud Walking has figured out their flow and it's great. They have fun seasonal beverages, but I still love their mocha. There's a little bit of seating in the front, but there's a bigger area to hang out or work in the back with tables, couches, and comfy chairs. I love treating myself to a macaron from Love & Macs or a baked good (or bread) from Elder Bread. The Violet Sky chocolate is available for purchase, along with other goods like ceramics, jewelry, jam, and coffee, of course. The baristas and staff are all great. This is arguably the best coffee shop in South Bend. Don't miss it if you're in the area. read more

This place must be understaffed because the waits for coffee are very long. I waited over 30 minutes and finally had to leave. no one was helping the barista. Not a place to get a coffee if you don't have all day to wait. read more

I had a mocha from here and it was one of the best coffees I've ever had. The foam was really thick and good. I had this pizza bread that was also delicious. They have fresh herbs from their garden. The cashier didn't know what was on the bread which was odd but it wasn't too hard to figure out. The macaroons were super good especially the lavender one! The bathroom was clean and the place has such cute decor. I also bought some chocolate but yet to try it. The service was friendly and quick. read more

Cloud Walking Cafe is the loveliest shop with something around every corner- literally. There's plenty of seating- in fact there's an entire back room with couches and communal tables for working on your laptop or collaborating with others. They also sell several goods from local artisans - earrings, mugs, tshirts, dream catchers, artwork, etc. it's a bit of a mishmash. Their coffee drinks are delicious. They only have ONE SIZE offering though! What the heck?! I ordered their lavender orange blossom latte and it came in the smallest cup! I wanted 5 of them! This is my biggest (and only) complaint! I want more sizes of their delicious coffee! Their pastries and tarts are beyond incredible (see photos). There's plenty of street parking outside so hurry on over to this coffee shop:) read more

I walk inside and the barista looks up and says, "Hey!" with a smile. P.S. The staff is incredible. They're so nice. & they remember me, which is the biggest plus ever; it's such a compliment. I always order a mac, or two, or three. Can't go without my drugs. & the drinks are marvelous. Imo, the coffee is Quality. (& i gotta say, go for the victuals too. I love the Lox toast.) I always take time to look at the floor. And the plants, and the lights, and the paintings on the walls. They've got a painting there that I love, but I wouldn't want to buy it. It belongs there. They've got plenty of seating space to choose from--tables and chairs, or couches and armchairs. And lovely pink Morpheus is good company. They've also got books. I recommend reading The Secret History. I love this place. It is my sanctuary, my sanity. read more

Everything about this place is great. Definitely best coffee place in town. Friendly staff and great drinks and food.

Great coffee, great food, awesome staff. My partner and I love cloud walking. Please consider making your establishment 18 or over. Too many kids bringing too much noise and perambulators crowding up an already popular destination. Today a woman brought in a double-wide perambulator and would move the damn thing. read more

Holy moly, the cake by Adare was the BEST. The frosting was delicious and the perfect amount of sweetness. The crumb of the cake was moist and flavorful. I ate the chocolate cake with banana in the filling and it was to die for. I'm still thinking about this cake! It got two thumbs up from my son as well. Bonus points for the beautiful icing work. It was truly a beautiful and well done cake with lots of texture. You really can't go wrong with this cake! Definitely try it :) read more

Service was great, ambiance was amazing, drinks were good but a little pricy for the one size.

Finally got to check out the newly renovated Cloud Walking coffee shop and wasn't disappointed in their offerings. The menus, colorful decor and vast seating options make this place a favorite mobile office or great option for a coffee date. Their homemade bakery options are to die for - I got their apple and cardamom hand pie and I'll be back just for that alone. read more

Such a hidden gem in the south bend area!! I was in town visiting friends and we went here after our brunch at the farmers market. The place was so artistic! Loved the interior design and they even have a spacious sitting area on the back. I had the latte (as always) and it was very good. Macaron was also tasty! Can't beat the vibe here. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend everyone try it out if you are in this area! Support such a great local business! read more

I have visited this coffee shop twice now and I can't say I am super impressed. There are not many options in the area anymore that are open in the evening so we went here again to try it. The coffee is okay as well as the baked goods. The vibe/ambiance felt off too. It is always packed too so finding a spot can be difficult. I did notice the staff were very kind and helpful when someone did not like their drink. They recommended a new drink and made it for the customer free of cost. read more

This place is super cute. It's a culmination of several small businesses in one location. A bit hidden and hard to find right now. The coffee is really good, arguably some of the best in the area. The macarons rival Chicago patisseries. We didn't try anything else yet but will definitely be back to try the bread And chocolates. They also have really neat artwork, plants, and mugs for sale.

I cannot believe this little place doesn't have more reviews. We came into town from Valparaiso, IN to attend the farmer's market. We stopped at The Early Bird and had amazing sourdough bread. I found out that this bread is sold here. My husband and I went straight to Cloud Walking and bought two loaves and two bagels. We had toast this morning with this amazing bread. All I can say is that I have never had bread THIS good. It is worth the price- don't bother complaining. Just buy it. The shop is cute and comfortable. The staff is super friendly and we loved it. I can see that even though I am an hour away, this will be a regular stop for me. So amazed at the craftsmanship here. We need more bakers and foodies in the world today. Please add a shop in Valparaiso! read more

Great tasting roast. Well made latte and great service. If I were in the hood It would be my go2.

Nice staff. Very youthful environment. Sourdough bread was amazing. I am happy to have tried the bread

This place is coffee and pastry heaven! I love the food and the service! Excellent workers

My sister told me about this coffee shop since I'm visiting for the weekend. The cappuccino with oat milk was super good- right proportion and roast and did the job to wake me up from my jet lag. A few suggestions: -better directions to where you're located (aka the back alley). -option of half decaf for espresso. -decor could be better: if you're looking for hipster. This is my used to Brooklyn coffee shops. -not sure I'd stay to drink coffee there, vibes are dry here. Lol reminds me of San Francisco. read more
