This was my first visit to Mugshot Coffee. I arrived around 2 pm and there were only 3 people ahead of me. They share a small parking lot with a couple of other businesses so parking may be limited during high peak hours. They offer tap to pay.
I had the Oatmeal raisin cookie ($2.50). It was a little too sweet for my taste but was a nice size for the cost. When I get it again I’ll just order a regular coffee. I also had a 12 oz hot toasted marshmallow oat milk Latte ($6.30), it was great!
I will definitely be returning for another cup of coffee and try other food items on the menu.

My first visit. Enjoyed a white chocolate apricot scone and hot Machu-Peach-U tea. Both were tasty. Very friendly staff. I also enjoyed that this was a faith-based coffee place, with Christian music piped in.
It's easy to find kinda and tucked behind Cub. Street parking. Staff was friendly. Industrial feel with charm. Might be back in the summer because it looks like they have a door that opens up for guests to enjoy an outdoor feel.
Clean, warm, and kinda cozy atmosphere. Definitely a great space to work remotely. Looks like there’s a meeting room large enough for a group of less than ten if you need meeting space. Clean. Bathrooms were clean.

The beverages were delicious! The servers were friendly & helpful. Took two bites of the grilled cheese & threw out the rest of it. We were told before ordering that food would take 20 min. Not worth it for this item. The bread was kind of toasted, the cheese not quite melted, & roughly 4 tablespoons of chopped garlic were spread inside the sandwich. Garlic is the only flavor of the sandwich- overpowering with no other seasoning. We’ll return for the coffee & tea, maybe we’ll try other food here but not the grilled cheese

This is a really comfortable place to visit and enjoy your coffee with a sandwhich or a yummy pastry. I tried the Cappuccino, which was very tasty along with a dangerous Apple Flip. Dangerous, cause you feel like having half a dozen at a sitting, but anyway, it was very good and you just have to try it. Friendly service and clean with plenty of parking.

A real treat any time you’re in Bloomington. The downsides are that it’s generally very busy and can be hard to find a seat, despite lots of room. Great variety of drinks and food options!

Come to find out their baristas DONT get to keep tips. It just goes right back into the business.
This isn't fair to their staff and is frankly out of line. Generally the customer expects tips to be just that, a tip and thank you to the staff for excellent service.

Breve was creamy and smooth, just the way it should be. Lovely local shop atmosphere. Great for small meetings and gatherings, or just to stop by for a quick snack with delicious drinks. Finally a local coffee shop in Bloomington that’s worth visiting.

We really wanted to love this, esp. as a small business option close to home, but they desperately need to take some notes from successful coffee places. Mochas are disappointing, 2 different sandwiches I've tried were SO bland, & the lady over 50 who works there does everything she can to make you feel like a burden.
Food wait time is LONG & last time I was in there was no system for getting it to you (like table #s, etc) - just some frazzled employed bringing it out & searching the whole shop for whoever ordered it.
There are @ least 18 other coffee shops in the cities who are dog friendly and while Mugshots is set up for it, being right next to a busy dog park with all that space & cement floors, but they obviously don't want to reach that demographic.
Only perks are their rewards program & their carrot cake.

I love this place.. Starbucks kept closing on Friday afternoon and my friends now meet here. Peaceful atmosphere. Great coffee and tea. Spacious and comfortable. Also the prices are incredibly fair. Pastries are from Isles Bun and Coffee. Delicious.
