I ordered a pumpkin chai off of their seasonal menu - it's served hot and I also added an espresso shot. I LOVED the chai - it had a lovely flavor and the spices really came through and paired beautifully with the pumpkin flavor. Even though a couple people were ahead of me, I didn't have to wait long and was able to get my order in around 5 minutes. I can't wait to try some of their coffees next time!

Both made quickly by the lovely barista in a minimalist tiny Hobbit store perched along an annoying expensive street, why is all downtown Bloomington parking paid? What a mess to try attracting tourists who have to shell out for a Monday completely empty of any traffic. At least Hopscotch proves the down payment worth it! There's no ambience here which is a bummer, could see myself sticking a nose into a book for hours eventually ordering another latte but not even a stool to sit. Both drinks were sublime, unique twists on common herbs and spices to enhance the java juices, this is the stuff that gets me excited for the brew!

I don't know if it was a bad batch or what, but my latte wasn't great. I think it was the syrup. It didn't really taste like maple syrup at all. It was kind of metallic-y in a way. I would be interested in trying some of their other house made syrups if I'm in the area!

Believe it or not, there is a real video game machine of Burgertime inside and if you remember that game, you may be eligible for membership in AARP There are two sides to the establishment.

The food and coffee menu is much more extensive than you might think so check out the online menu, if you can. We tried a chocolate cruffin that was very nice and a couple of iced coffee drinks that were also good. Service was very friendly. It's located in a residential neighborhood so it feels kind of secluded and cozy. Well worth a visit.

A grind of their South Asian coffees are amazing. Their food selections are good, but an after-thought, unlike Hopscotch and down the list, Soma. This is a noisy place. There are picnic tables outside, but inside, it's often populated by laptops, loud conversation, and fueling all this commotion, the best coffee in town. I haven't had a bad cup yet, and I've had plenty. Bring money, but it's worth it. Competence should be rewarded.

I visited twice for a breakfast and a lunch. Lunch: I had a Black Russian sandwich and a pot of Emperor's Pride tea. The sandwich, which is a vegetarian version of a Reuben with roasted veggies instead of meat, was delicious. They really piled on the veggies. Some fell out of the sandwich, but I just ate them with the home fries. The home fries also were nicely seasoned. The tea was a little off. It's possible it was the tea itself that didn't taste how I expected, but it kind of tasted like I was getting the flavour of a different tea in the pot. Breakfast: Apple pancake and bouquet latte (seasonal special - lavender Ceylon tea latte with honey and rose syrup). The bouquet latte was wonderful and had this beautiful red swirl latte art. The pancake was nice and fluffy. One pancake is something like $5, but one is enough for a complete meal, maybe with a protein side if you're especially hungry. The staff is very friendly and makes you feel welcome. The food didn't take very long even though they seemed busy.
