I have lived in Bloomington now for almost 6 years and finally stopped in for a few cookware items I’ve been needing. What an amazing and pleasant experience! The worker that helped was incredibly knowledgeable and just a treat to be around in general! I foresee many more visits in my future :-) thanks!

A cornerstone store for our community with a wonderful selection of products and terrific, down to earth customer service. If they don’t have something you want, they’ll try to source it.Shop small, support local - even for the small stuff!

Wow, what a great place to purchase ordinary and hard-to-find kitchen tools, gadgets, knives, vinegar, spices, foods, etc, etc., etc. I always plan on going here when visiting B-Town. Also, Kudos to sales associate, Bayeleigh, who gave OUTSTANDING customer service and advice. She exceeded my expectations! Thank you!

Everything youd want out of a cookware store. I particularly appreciate the large coffee brewing equipment section - kettles, drippers, filters, and scales. They have an irresistible specialty food area with oils, tinned fish, pasta, cheese, spices, and so on. Staff is very knowledgeable and eager to help you shop. This store is a total gem!

Goods is my favorite store of all time!

If you like to nerd out about the technology that goes into a product before you buy, this is the place for you! I needed a new frying pan, and ended up having a half hour conversation with the staff about heat conduction and durability before making a purchase. They stand by the products they sell, and I absolutely recommend shopping for cookware here over a big box store or online vendor - you wont be disappointed.

The Goods for Cooks staff is unparalleled in their expertise, customer service, and friendliness. Their high-quality kitchenware, hard-to-find culinary goods, and unique gifts make this shop a favorite downtown Bloomington stop for our family. My experience today was a prime example what makes Goods for Cooks a local gem. They helped me pick out the perfect gift, wrapped it beautifully (a complimentary service), and offered up food samples while I waited. What more could I ask for?

Amazing place to get your kitchen wares. Everything from knives to cake decorating tools. The staff is more than happy to help, they can help you get what you need whether you are a home chef or a professional chef. They also are one of the only places to get vanilla bean pods and other rare spices.
