What a vibe! This place blends history and cozy café & coffee house perfectly. The staff is very friendly, the food excellent (and very reasonably priced), and atmosphere is cozy while allowing for ample space for patrons. I'm happy they chose a historic train station for the business location thus saving the structure. It was very cool to see. Definitely worth popping in for cuppa or a bite to eat. Will return.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Really enjoy the coffee here! They roast their own beans every month and have those dates listed on their bags so you can make sure they're fresh, and have several different types and seasonal varieties so there's always something new if you want to try them out. Inside of the coffee shop is Clara B's and between the two they have fantastic coffee, pastry options, and brunch foods. Definitely reccomend for a nice coffee and brunch. Love going back here every now and then and also grabbing some coffee Saturday mornings when their stall is at the vine street market. Great baristas!

Cool coffee spot in Bellville IL. Had the house coffee and a slice of apple pie, both were wonderful. The coffee was smooth, and the pie tasted like grandma's. The server was courteous and professional.
