Crumble Coffee & Bakery

Nice coffee shop. This was my second visit. The coffee shop has table if you want to work or study. It is pretty quiet. The pastries choices are limited. I ordered latte, and it was good. It's not too hot. The pastries are also good. The workers were friendly.

Was excited to try a new coffee place (visiting from Zville). I ordered the Honey Bear Latte Nonfat and my son ordered the Mexican Mocha Latte. A little underwhelmed with both. Mexican mocha tasted a bit bitter. My Honey Bear was ok but not very hot. One of my biggest pet peeves is lukewarm coffee drinks. I love my drinks hot hot not chuggable.

Very cozy place! I love the warm wood interior. They have lots of specialty drinks and a great variety of sweet and savoury baked goods. Whether you're looking for breakfast, light lunch, or dessert, and whether you're a tea or coffee person, you will find something here (except maybe not if you're vegan or gluten-intolerant - they have nondairy milks, but I didn't notice any vegan or gf pastries).I had a Red Pepper & Sweet Potato Quiche, an Almond Joy Cookie, and a Lavender Vanilla Chai Latte. All the food was delicious. I don't think I've had sweet potato in a quiche before but the texture worked really well with the egg base. The pastry crust was also perfect. The cookie was soft and thick, and they offered to warm it up for me which was a nice finishing touch. The chai latte was also great. The lavender flavour was subtle but it gave the drink a very smooth and soothing flavour. I really like that the lavender vanilla flavour is in the concentrate they use rather than being from added syrup on top of a standard chai concentrate, so you get a good depth of flavour with less excess sweetness.The baristas were really nice. There was a small chalkboard that listed some of the quiches/galettes, but it looked like there was more in the case than what was on the board, and I also wanted to ask about the two chai flavours, so I had a lot of questions, but the staff was really helpful and didn't get impatient. Standard prices for "artisanal" drinks and pastries.

We visited Crumble when our favorite Bloomington bakery was closed. But I'm kind of glad that the other bakery was closed, because I got to discover Crumble, another fine Bloomington bakery. I wanted something sweet but I didn't know what to order, so two things: an almond scone and a blueberry croissant. The blueberry croissant was really good and unusual -- I had never had a fruit croissant before. The scone was huge and good, too. They had a lot of different pastries and baked good to choose from.I got a cup of black coffee to go, and it was OK -- it was a little bitter, but I bet it would have tasted better with cream and sugar (although I don't take my coffee with cream and sugar, so that was the problem).

One of my favorite places to study in Bloomington. The coffee is always delicious and you can never go wrong with the honey bear latte. If they don't ask you at the counter, ask for it "for here" and they will give you it in the cute latte cups. The people who work there are also extremely nice and they have a rewards system where if you get so many stars you get a free coffee. (Really exposing how much I go here) Only con I can think of is I just wish they would play a little less Lana del Rey and switch up their music a bit more, but this place really is one of the best!

Dropped by Crumble for the first time last week. Ordered a small mocha. Staff was cordial and I got my drink quickly. Unfortunately, the mocha was underwhelming. It tasted like regular coffee with a very slight mocha flavor. Not sure if that is normal for a Crumble mocha or what. It was not sweet at all, and I was expecting it to be a bit sweet. I should have tasted it before I left because I would have added some sweetener. I do want to go back and try again. They have some delicious-sounding drinks for the cold weather season. Their baked goods looked amazing too. Will try again next time I am in the area.

Stopped in Crumble for an afternoon pick-me-up during a work trip. I was immediately greeted by the friendliest staff who made me feel like a regular. I tried the chai latte and chocolate chip cookie- both amazing. I hung out for about an hour, reading and enjoying my treats in a cozy leather chair. There was a steady flow of customers- you can tell this is a community staple in Bloomington. I'll be back!

Maybe this was a fluke visit, but my samoan latte was only slightly warm when given to me. The staff were not friendly and seemed like they needed some espresso themselves. I was sitting waiting for my latte with my back to the bar assuming they would call it out. After a coupe minutes I turn around and my drink was just sitting there. Maybe I'm wrong for assuming they would tell me my drink is ready?? Is that too much to ask?? Anyways I was underwhelmed. I work close by and will often recommend it to people visiting, but maybe I'll rethink that.Also, I recently ordered online from them. I got there after my set pick-up time and told the barista I needed to pick up my online order. They said most times those orders don't come through, so I had to wait for them to make my drink. Kind of takes away the point of online ordering.

I have been to this location three separate times within a three month timeline, as it is close to where I live.The drinks tasted good and were warm each time. I especially enjoyed how flavorful the fall apple chaider was. However, my issue with this location is that every single time, the quiche slices were ice cold. The first time I thought it was a mistake, the second time I thought it was a fluke because they were busy. The third time was when I confronted the barista about the issue after I took the first bite. She said that they couldn't reheat the ice-cold quiche because it's a health violation (totally valid and understandable). I didn't appreciate that they did nothing to compensate my order, since the cold eggs tasted nasty.Hope they get a new microwave soon.

Employees laughed so hard spit flew into my face when I asked what a quiche is. I have never been to a restaurant as unprofessional as this. Did not offer me a napkin.
