Very cute little coffee shop. The pastry was delicious. Quiet, I like the setting of the place. Price was reasonable.

Friendly, quick, high quality.Good snacks. Free WiFi. Loud setting and could be warmer.

My go-to coffee shop whenever I visit Bloomington. Great staff. Great coffee. Great chill atmosphere. And they support the LGBQT community! 🙌🏼

Every thing from their bakery is amazing. You have to try their croissants, so buttery. I also love their scones, my favorite is the spinach feta. Great coffee and friendly service.

Service was pleasant and wait was only a couple minutes, seated at table and name is called to pick up your order. Prices are very reasonable, clean and light crowd, but mid afternoon.

This was my first visit and I was not disappointed. I probably would have never visited this place had I not gotten a gift card. Ill be visiting more often now.

Pretty good coffee and great selection of variety!

Nice hometown feel coffee shoppe and kind servers. Lots of energy and delicious espressos

The service was wonderful but the coffee and the granola was terrible. My granola was burnt and tasted burnt, Greek yogurt was not very good either. The jelly was good tho

What a great coffee spot! I drive 2hrs to meet up with someone there and wish it was around the corner from me. The Baristas were awesome very friendly. It helped that little Melvin was with me ❤

I really like how strong and organic their coffee tastes here. Well worth the price. The avocado toast on sourdough bread is a must try.

Been coming here consistently for close to 6 years now and it is an excellent local coffee shop. Staff is always very friendly and most importantly their coffee is very high quality. Would recommend their drip coffee (Red Dog) or House Cortado. Plenty of space to sit down and drink some coffee while getting some work done.

Best coffee shop in Bloomington/Normal. Stopped by for a celebratory latte after my second vaccine dose

Wife is shopping, Im having a cup of coffee. Worst coffee ever! Very bitter, threw it out after the second taste.

Friendly, quick, and tasty coffee in a cool environment, albeit a tad expensive.

Love this place ❤️

What a great place to grab a cup of coffee! Delicious pastry options too. I especially love the historic building with the deco door handles and the high tin ceilings.I get Mexican Mocha coffee.

Every member of the staff was friendly and helpful. After we had gotten our order, one of the staff helped another customer choose a coffee. The baked goods were ginormous, which threw me off, but looked really good. 10/10 will be returning when I have the opportunity to do so.

We love this place...we go there every Saturday morning. We sure miss it when we travel out of town!

Definitely a local hot spot for a delicious cup of your favorite caffeinated beverage! It’s a cozy space to meet with friends or set up your laptop and get some work done

A wonderful new selection of tea Coffee Hound, all 3 locations in Bloomington Normal, are great. The Baristas are all highly trained, and their espresso drinks reflect this. You can get a wonderful variety of espresso drinks, their own roasted coffee and Specialty coffees in collaboration with White Oak Brewery, Nitro, a wonderful new selection of Teas, a wonderful red tiger chai and smoothies and much more. They have a great selection of In-House made pastries. They also have in house made bread for toast, and a delicious avocado toast. My favorite is their house latte, which is a miel, honey and cinnamon.

Nice servers. Liked the Thai iced coffee

Coffee Hound is a fantastic local coffee shop that practices all the proper safety. They get ethically sourced coffee and its delicious! Friendly staff and a great environment. The only bad part may be trying to get a seat!!!

Ive been in this place many times, and the coffees are great, and excellent service. The employees are always friendly here.

Delicious avocado toast and cappuccino. Perfect breakfast before getting back on the road.

The branch with the slowest service ever. There might be 4-5 people behind the counter but only 1 would be filling the orders. Doesn’t it make sense to prioritize the waiting customers instead of fidgeting with things back there. It might take a solid quarter hour to get a single coffee. Highly inconvenient if you are on the go.Update: Visited again after Covid. I wish I could give it another 1-star. Long line of people waiting to receive their orders. No name is taken when the order is given so people jump at each other’s order, fighting over whose order is what. Staff looking lost. Total chaos. After 25 minutes of waiting, I finally managed to get a simple coffee. I have the worst experience whenever I visit this branch; I do not know what is wrong with it compared to the Uptown’s.

Great place for a cup of Joe and a place to relax and unwind. Its great that they have seating now where people can mingle and have a true Coffee House experience.

Coffee is good but staff was pretty rude to a customer. I entered to find a mother and her adorable toddler daughter laughing and enjoying the day. Just being happy. Then to hear the barista mention to another that “all that jumping around was giving her an anxiety attack”. Which was fine! In a forward facing job like that it tends to happen but most people power through it and put on a smile for the company image. Not this one. When the mother approached to place her order the barista asked that she keep her child from moving around too much as it was upsetting her. The look on the mother’s face said it all yet she didn’t want to make a scene so she just accepted the criticism. Train your forward facing staff to leave their problems at the door. It’s work and that was inappropriate

Delicious coffee . Great staff. Hoping the big table for 6 comes back soon . Our group misses it.

Very sophisticate, clean & serene

Really good coffee and avo toast. Unexpected find in Bloomington, would stop here again if Im in the area.

Best coffee in town—since moving back to BloNo, we have switched our fancy coffee habit from the big chain stores to Coffee Hound and have never looked back. I love their curbside option for when we have the kiddo in the car and when we just want to avoid entering any store due to COVID concerns. It’s super convenient.

They have the best Iced caramel macchiato

The coffee is made to perfection Everytime.

Great place to get excellent coffee (latte and drop). They also sell beans and pastries.

Wonderful staff and service! Recommend to ask for Jasmine as she was very helpful with finding a coffee that was up to my liking now im ordering it all the time! 6/5 stars. 🌟

Fantastic drinks and the staff are always nice.

The drink I got was PERFECT. Unfortunately I had to wait almost 20 minutes for just the 1 drink. I will probably come back but if I do I’ll place a Mobile order so it is ready when I arrive.

Great atmosphere and fantastic customer service!

Love the Coffee Hound!! Their atmosphere is inviting, their coffee is superb and their baked goods are amazing! If you’re wanting to make a quick stop for coffee on a Saturday morning (especially in the summer) go somewhere else because the line is out the back of the shop! That speaks to how good the coffee is because people are willing to wait for it, but just know that ahead of time! 🤣 I also love that they finally have a rewards program!

Worth the detour out of the Freeway for a quality cup.

Ordered coffee beans online. Delivery was ridiculously fast; I ordered in the afternoon and got my coffee by 10am the next day! The Coffee is amazing! They even threw in some bonus items. Support small business!

A good option for a coffee stop whether local or passing through on a long road trip through central Illinois. Large space, urban location, with quality coffee.

Coffee Hound is a great place to start your morning, lots of coffee options with changing seasonal specials and fresh baked goods. Coffee is great!

House cortado is incredible

I just had the most amazing cranberry orange scone! My wife had the ghost pepper scone and said it was delicious. Nice, rich lattes as well. We will definitely return when we are in town next time.

Great coffee and great service!

We like finding local coffee on our road trips and glad we found this one! We will definitely stop again on our next trip! We ordered iced lattes, sweetened and mocha, both were fantastic. Great coffee notes coming through and not too sweet at all!

The coffee is freaking amazing!

This is a lovely local coffee house. The offerings are pretty much what youd expect (coffee and espresso drinks and pastries) but everything is really well done and the staff is very helpful and friendly. Today I had a Mexican mocha and orange chocolate chip scone. A well done scone is a thing of wonder, and this one was very well done. Ive been to the Coffee Hound in Normal too. I like them both, but I like the one in bloomington just a tiny bit more because I love the old building that its in and the beautiful old tile floor.

Possibly the best coffee shop in Illinois...

Place seems overpriced for my likes. The coffee isnt bad though.

My favorite coffee shop in town. The atmosphere and WiFi are both great and it’s on my favorite street in town. It’s really popping on Saturday mornings in the summer-you won’t be able to find a seat.The coffee is good not great-not because of lack of skill or care, just very fruity and acidic compared to more earthy coffees.

Coffee hound tastes even better than Starbucks in my opinion. They are also very kind and patient people. Love this place

Love this place! Served my espresso with soda water on a lovely wooden platter-thing. Perfect!

Café Cortado! Awesome! Good shot! I liked the place and the art they have in the walls is really good! Deco is nice and the way they serve your drinks are great!! I got a pin! They have great souvenir stuff there!

Always good coffee. Good service.

Coffee was great, I truly believe everyone should go there 10/10 would go again

Its still our fave shop to stop at in this region, but lately theyve had some really obnoxious staff. They tried to tell my husband how to make a mocha before they had a chance to botch it in a condescending tone. He was a barista too, when he was in college and had to explain it to the jerk behind the counter. We almost abandoned this place because of that guy and a couple of similarly rude employees, but will try again, since staff like that may not last.

You cant go wrong here. The drink selection isnt over whelming but it is very good. Rich coffee flavors.

This place managed to create a latte out of coconut milk that was truly legit. Im lactose intolerant and I know coconut milk is hit or miss. They hit. The location is nice and chill too. Impressed ♥️💯

Great coffee houses. I wish the one in Normal offered mugs and glasses like the one in Bloomington does. When you are enjoying a cup of coffee in the coffee house it feels more premium than drinking out of paper.

The coffee was great but I wish this place was warmer I had to wear my coat like the whole time.

Friendliest staff ever and amazing choices for coffee and food alike. Great place to go for organic, vegetarian, or vegan dishes. The breakfast menu is tasty.

I just ordered an iced tea. They had more choices than Im used to and were very helpful when I wasnt sure which to order. They put the drink in my own container with extra ice and it was delicious. Cant wait to try something else!

The pour over coffee is legit. As a coffee snob, exactly what Ive come to expect

Loved my almond/honey natural cookie and the Earl Grey tea!! But they didnt have basic black ice tea and sounded surprised when my husband asked for it. They said they could make it and they did, but it was a bit strange that a coffee/tea place didnt have something this common. Anyway, loved the building and the logo :)

Great cup of coffee

Coffee was good but had to wait 15 minutes to get it. Not to mention that I had to wait in line 15 minutes before that. And all I wanted was an ice coffee. Nothing crazy right?

Best cold brew I’ve ever had, and the avocado toast is fantastic. Love that they have so many gluten free options, too.

Great store front. Beautiful old ceilings and architectural features. Tasty coffee and nice find for me on my next trip to Bloomington!

If youre not feeling like coffee, no worries. Coffee Hound has THE best tea in town.

Bike Shop Location.Female at counter has long braids.Watched her Drag braids through everyones order.No one behind counter ever washed hands. Health Dept Would Love this place!!!Add the Only Whole Milk. and no Sugar free favorings. Why? Looked like shop had room for one extra Milk in cooler.Go to the Coffee Hound Uptown instead.

The best Ever ! They Roast their beans .They are experts, the whole coffee experience is amazing .They bake their own baked goods. Im in Love wish there was one in Florida .

Worth the drive off the interstate for great coffee

Awesome locally-owned coffee place in a very cool location. Service is fast and friendly, and drink prices are very reasonable. They also sell coffee beans and ground coffee. Its a good place to read or write, and is much quieter than the one uptown or Starbucks.

Another fantastic opportunity for people to keep money flowing throughout the community and help friendly businesses grow! Its a very chill atmosphere with equally chill employees. Great place to get some coffee or tea on a day off of work or on a date!

It was super busy when we arrived but really enjoyed the coffee and the Amish cake. Would highly recommend to anyone coming through town like us.

Ive been going here off and on for about 10 years now and I love this place. Great coffee, delicious treats, and relaxing atmosphere.

Enjoyed my white chocolate Carmel oat milk latte. Delicious.

Best coffee in town! Can be difficult to find a seat sometimes. Highly recommend paying for refill when you purchase initial cup of coffee.

The pastries are really good!! I started by trying one and ended up eating three of them. Nice local place

We stopped here for Breakfast Today...😁 I had a piece of Amish Cake ( Delicious) and Coffee...😂 Robert had a Morning Bun & Coffee...😁 It was a good start to Our day. Thank You for Your great Customer Service ❤️

Coffee is good.. Crowded place during the rush.. menu has been down graded and the over all experience seems more commercialized.

Best coffee spot in town. If you havent had the Mexican Mocha latte you havent lived

I recommend the House Cortado and Avocado Toast. Both are super delicious.

Great coffee and service

Way better than the other two coffee hounds, best coffee and pastries around

Best coffee in Bloomington-Normal in my humble opinion. Every Saturday morning you can count on a long line of people who know this.

Really inviting atmosphere, plenty of comfortable seating. Great tasting coffee in an eclectic and new age environment.

The Red Dog House Brew is an amazing cup of coffee. Cold and hot coffee options with Creative desserts in a chill atmosphere that isnt stuck up. Lots of seating.

So good. Best I had the whole trip north. Wanted to buy a sticker but it was 25 bucks, everything else was right on point.

Great atmosphere, friendly employees, and their coffee is fantastic! Nice seating as well.

Absolutely awesome local place to hang out! Those times when Starbucks just doesnt cut it, Coffee Hound does it! And you cant go wrong with enjoying the coffee art you will get on your drinks!

I always have a great experience when I come in. Coffee and pastries are great!

Best latte I have yet to have in the area. Great atmosphere and service. You can really tell they are dedicated to quality.

Coffee options are simple, as they should be. The few food items are tasty and local. Coffee is pricier than some other options in town, but is done right. There is often a line.

Nice relaxing spot to hang out, meet with friends, have a business meeting, or just do work on your laptop.

Delightful staff and the best pumpkin spice lattes.

Safe enough walk from the FJ 1 mile away. Nice walk. Good prices,friendly staff,nice atmosphere.
