Here’s a google review: “Found this place by chance & I’m so glad I did! It actually may be the cutest coffee shop I’ve ever been to. Me and my boyfriend joked that if iCarly went to a coffee shop in their show, this is where it would’ve been. The coffee was delicious & the atmosphere was great. Staff was also so sweet. Definitely come in if you’re debating.” -Alyssa Formella

FLUID COFFEE ROASTERS
Location: Multiple locations across the Region

Here’s a google review: “FLUID Crown Point is awesome! I always get an oat milk latte and stay long after I finish. Design-wise this one is my personal favorite; it combines all the best aesthetics of the other 3 locations to create its own identity. FLUID Valpo is super punky/goth, Michigan City is more open concept, artsy and light, BOSCO is ultra-modern and CP is such a perfect blend of all 3.”-pointandshoot757

COFFEE CABIN
Location: Multiple locations across the Region
Here’s a google review: “The rich bodied flavor their coffee gives off will leave you asking for some beans to take home with you. If you enjoy yourself a nice strong and inspiring coffee in the morning this is the place to go. Also the workers give off the vibe that they enjoy working there and are so helpful. It’s more than a cup of coffee to me, it’s the experience of being treated like a human being and not a number.”- Jerry Lot

SMALLTOWN COFFEE CO.
Location: Crown Point, IN
Pictured: “Cold Brew Coffee with Cream”
Here’s a google review: “I love this place. Cute, modern coffee shop hidden away in a neighborhood. The baristas have some real craft. From lattes, to pour over, to cappuccinos – everything is delightful. It is small inside, but that is expected since this is a local coffee shop. My husband and I love stopping by on Sundays after church. Been coming here for about a year and haven’t been disappointed thus far. Their seasonal drinks are amazing. My only complaint – I wish I lived closer! But they are definitely worth the drive.”- Gabrielle B
