Soma is a decent coffee shop with a fun vibe in this downtown location. We love to stop in here for coffee when we are downtown. The cold brew is a bit more bitter than I usually like, but the fun rotating whipped cream usually makes up for it and their consistency in making drinks to order. Sometimes it is cinnamon flavoured which is the best. Their pistachio latte is a favourite as well.
There are a few parking spots on the side of the building for patrons, which is useful when you are just stopping in- otherwise it is paid parking.
It is kid-friendly and has a neat fish tank in a TV which is a hit for kids.
We've had a few of their baked goods which are fairly priced and not overly sweet. This location is very small, but that's what makes it quite unique.

Overpriced, poorly maintained, and disappointing.
The place looked unclean, and the longer we stayed, the more hygiene concerns became apparent. On top of that, they didn’t even know how to properly foam milk. $4 for a babycino in a café that can’t meet basic cleanliness or quality standards is hard to justify.

The coffee is good but is it a requirement for the staff to be unfriendly? I'm trying to support local here but sheesh a hello or smile goes a long way lol

Really cool hipster indie vibe, with nice coffees and fair prices. It's kind of a hole-in-the-wall, and has actual holes in the ceiling. Chill arthouse vibe and nice people.
Our favorite coffee company at IU Bloomington! Great coffee. My favorite is the triple macchiato! The space, however, is kind of dumpy. I appreciate eclectic, but this place could use a clean up and better organization. A fresh styling? And the food wrapped in plastic on wire shelving isn’t very appealing nor sanitary seeming.

This is my favorite location of all the somas just due to being downtown in a small, unique space. Always friendly service, great outcomes, and close to downtown shops.

Great people here. And our drinks were top notch. The problem we experienced was the strong smell of urine around the front door and patio. Pretty rough.

A fun spot on campus with excellent coffee and perfect friendly service. Got a double cortado and they absolutely nailed it. I barely had time to admire the fish tank with how fast my order was ready.

I only stopped in to this cute restaurant/coffee shop for a double espresso but I was very impressed by the service and unique decor. Very friendly! I’ll definitely be back to try out some food!

Atmosphere and drink were good but a staff member was super rude and treated me like she’s hated me her whole life - literally never met this person before. I wish I could remember her name, I’d bet I’m not the first customer she’s treated like that. I won’t ever return here because of her poor service.
