Tspoons Coffee And Treats - ia City

I have only ever come in for a quick cup of coffee and maybe a sweet treat here and there- which has always been wonderful. They make very good lattes and I've never been disappointed. The staff is very kind and they have a great selection of sweets. Candy, chocolates, you name it.That being said, today I stopped in and ordered some food- the baked oatmeal. It was extremely gross. It tasted like the inside of the fridge plus overwhelmingly of walnuts. I didn't say anything to the staff because they were very kind. Also, in the spirit of fairness, this is the only food item.However I did also notice the tables and floors were very dirty and the layout of the store is very disjointed. The candy shelves make the tables feel extremely cramped and I felt like I was too close to the person at the table next to me. It's a very claustrophobic kind of space. This is partly due to the fact the store is small, but I feel like they would benefit from reconsidering the layout a bit.It's a great place if you're just stopping in for a quick coffee and sweet treat, but if today is any indication of the usual atmosphere, I can't say I recommend them for dining in.Again, though, I would like to reiterate that this is the first time I have dined in. It is quite possible that this might have just been an off day for them.Still, it was a markedly uncomfortable and disappointing experience. The coffee is very good still, though, so it wasn't a total bust.I don't like writing negative reviews like this when there's grey area. Some places deserve negative press 100% but Teaspoons is such a cute spot and I would love to see them thrive! I hope this was just a bad day for them.

The barista is not only very sweet, but also as helpful as can be. She is personable. Also, pretty. Good job, will come again.

Awesome coffee shop! Owner and staff are amazing!!! 100% recommend!!!!

We love Ms. Monique! My colleague and I have extended breaks once a week and this has become our regular spot. Monique always takes care of us while we are in there for a few hours getting our work done. Kind staff and good drinks :

I am a student at U of I and I come to T-Spoons regularly to get a drink and study. it is the cutest place ever! the staff is always so friendly and everything they serve is impeccable. one of the cutest coffee shops in IC! I practically live here and the staff couldn’t be more welcoming! Highly recommend the chai, hot or iced.
