The donuts are in cases at the counter. The clerk rattles off the popular donuts and includes the apple fritter. The fritters are part of their specialty donuts and are large. The clerk is friendly and explains that the donut makers come in early to make the donuts. They sell coffee too - it's self serve and only $1.29 for a small cup. Nothing fancy. Just coffee. The apple fritter is huge and was perfect at $3.69. The apple filling was delicious. I recommend and will be back soon.

The chappie Chai was the worst coffee shop beverage I have ever tried. Extremely bitter yet bland,…read moretexture thin and watery yet also like low quality protein powder grainy, I couldn't believe I didn't take it back. I think after four years of excellent beverages here it has taken a while to face the facts with inconsistent experimental specialities. The price gouging has also become difficult. Tiny right ounce servings at regular full sixteen ounces prices ruins the forward thinking espresso vibes. Alongside with the remodel that ruined the cool couch nook, less space here, free parking is nice, location right down from the airport is neat, but sadly there are much better options that haven't pumped up prices and leaked out extra for it. I highly recommend Sacred Grounds, Eleventh House, and Wanderlust where quality, value, and consistently are prime.

I tend to like coffee that's well balanced, medium roast, and not too acidic, and they had a wide variety. It would be nice if you could buy just a cup of coffee, as I'm usually in the mood for a cup when I go to buy in bulk. Also, I wish they were more covid-conscious, as the woman working there didn't have her mask over her nose, and she kept getting too close and touching me. (Nothing inappropriate, but in the times of a global pandemic, I don't want strangers touching me.) I will definitely be back, but PLEASE be more conscious of the health situation!

On our first visit they had no bagels and had to do the sandwich on a ciabatta roll which was fine (but they also didn't have bacon on that trip either).

This place is lit!…read more The barista know their stuff, are friendly and kind, and are great conversationalist (when you want it). Walt, the owner is exceptional; he shows passion in everything he does and it's clear he cares deeply about his establishment. I have enjoyed several different coffee drinks. The two I'd highlight as perhaps the most original offerings in town are the Quest Coffee Latte (it's made with protein powder) and the hot nitro brew. I personally love the hot nitro. As far as food and snacks, they always have excellent locally sourced goods. I believe they pulling treats from Mama Inez, a local Hispanic bakery and also Scones and Doyles (European bakery). The final highlight I'll mention is the space; it's huge! This coffee shop sits across two store fronts. One side gives study room/university vibes, while the other is more of a traditional shop. So if you want a quiet study area, you have it. If you want the atmosphere of a fully alive coffee shop, you've got it!

I was a bit bummed they didn't have almond milk or any decaf options, but I also know that's not the kind of coffee many people like. I had the honey lavender latte and my son gad the Houdini. They were delicious and very smooth. My son also loved that they have a PS4 to game on. They had about 5 designated parking spots. Summer would be a great time to try Ghost if you're not a college student. We didn't try any food, but want to come back to try it soon.

Astronomical prices, perhaps fine for the bean quality but then shooting short with the flavors?…read moreThat makes no sense. Why match connoisseur levels of java to McDonald's sucralose? This is a sweet treat for campus, finally another enjoyable space with insane parking options. Menu is creative and offering a couple originals like espresso and coke. But a Purdue tuition for a basic large latte, add a tip and it feels like ten bucks feels about like paying for a Microsoft Word degree. The three drinks I've tried are fine for two thirds the cost, at these prices goes against the grain in a Grayhouse vibe. I'm really hopeful to see this place figure out where it fits into the Sacred Grounds, Eleventh House, Wanderlust, and other first class options.

I tried the Ethiopian Shegitu. The blend's taste catches you off guard by hitting the back of your throat, is full bodied, and something to sip on and enjoy vs chugging to make it through your work day. The owner, Dudley was patient enough to chat with me over the many blends he has in stock and give me a highlight of the depth of knowledge he has about his beans, and the worldly coffees he offers.

While I'm pretty sure that most of us have seen Copper Moon Coffee around in retail outlets and in…read moreseveral Central Indiana hospital cafes, I'm not sure that too many realize that Copper Moon is actually a fourth generation, family owned company based in Lafayette, Indiana. They claim as their inspiration the perfect alignment of a "copper moon" and their mission "to create evenly roasted, uniquely smooth, high-grade coffee." I won't claim Copper Moon as my absolute favorite coffee, though it's definitely one I've turned to even before I knew they were actually an Indiana company. They have cafes in Lafayette, West Lafayette, and also one in West Lafayette at Purdue University. Copper Moon Coffee, however, is available in retail outlets nationwide including HEB, Albertson's, Kroger, Meijer, Giant Eagle, Market District, Costco, Target, Sam's Club, Tops Friendly Markets, Brookshire Grocery Company, Southeastern Grocers, and Associated. They also sell to offices, restaurants, hospitals, universities, convenience stores, and even vending kiosks. There's a pretty good chance you've had Copper Moon Coffee without even realizing it! They offer a variety of coffee bags, drinkware, wearables, swag, and they have a variety of coffees. Copper Moon is a Safe Quality Food Level 2 Supplier and in terms of sourcing they focus on three pillars: 1) Social inclusion to empower women farmers 2) Economic impact on the income of small farmers 3) Environmental coffee production systems. The more I've learned about Copper Moon, the more I've liked. They manage to maintain a strong flavor of Indiana while also growing into a large, national company. The Gutwein family roasts awesome coffee and they genuinely know how to market it. If I were to pick a favorite, I'd probably go with the medium roast Stargazer! You can also order their products off their website and you'll likely be surprised by the different types of coffee that they offer. If you're in the Lafayette/West Lafayette area, you can also experience one of their coffee cafes!

I met up with my family for brunch, and we were all in a waffle kind of mood. I ordered the banana granola waffle and it was next-level good! The waffle was perfectly crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and layered with just the right balance of sweetness and texture from the ample amount of bananas, whipped cream, and granola. Paired with a cinnamon maple latte? I was one deep breath away from writing a personal thank-you letter to the hands that prepared that plate! But honestly, one of the best parts of the visit was the energy. The woman running the register was giving full-on main character vibes. You could tell immediately she wasn't just taking orders--she was living the dream. The care. The joy. The way she engaged every single customer. That kind of presence can't be faked. It felt like ownership--even if it wasn't, it carried that level of pride and purpose. The indoor seating is cozy (read: tight but charming), but there's plenty of outdoor seating and as Indiana finally remembers what sunshine feels like, this is going to be the spot. Perfect for lingering over a latte, reading a book, or catching up with a good friend. Come for the coffee. Savor a waffle. Watch out for the redhead!
