Crema's Take
“Viking Brews is pulling double duty as both a serious coffee shop and an ice cream parlor, but what really sets it apart is their creative "dirty sodas"—customized fountain drink creations like Mermaid Magic and Island Paradise that have people coming back as much as their lattes. The vibe skews cozy and family-friendly with genuinely helpful staff, and regulars rave about signature drinks like the Charlie Brown (a dirty chai with caramel and pecan) alongside solid sandwiches. If you want a coffee shop that doesn't take itself too seriously but clearly cares about flavor experimentation, this is worth the detour.”
What to expect
Cold brew standout, with creative signature drinks. Slow-sit spot. Light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Who knew vikings could brew up some delicious coffee. On a day trip to Bloomington, Emily and I picked a random coffeehouse off my list of ones I have yet to try and we landed on Viking Brews. We both didn’t look it up beforehand so we had no idea what we were getting ourselves…
I found this coffee shop on accident browsing google. The vibe is very relaxing and homey. The staff is super friendly and helpful. I ordered the praline latte and my husband had the hazelnut latte. We were a little disappointed with the coffee, they were very bitter and lacked…
