The Coffee Beanery opened in October 2024 at 228 S. Grant St. in Bloomington.

The Coffee Beanery location in Bloomington appears to have permanently closed just months after opening.

A Facebook post on June 30 announced the shop was temporarily closed, with an update on reopening expected later. But a handwritten sign has since appeared in the window at 228 S. Grant Street that reads, “Shutting down, sorry.”

The café opened in October 2024. Owners previously said they hoped to add a Coldstone Creamery to part of the shop once operations stabilized.

Coffee Beanery first opened in 1976 and has over 100 locations in the U.S. and 20 more abroad.

No official closure announcement has been made online.

WFIU/WTIU News is an independent newsroom rooted in public service.

“Act Independently” is one of the basic creeds of journalism ethics, and we claim it proudly. The WFIU/WTIU News facilities are located on the campus of Indiana University, which does hold our broadcast license and contribute funding to our organization. However, our journalists and senior news leaders have full authority over journalistic decisions — what we decide to cover and how we tell our stories. We observe a clear boundary: Indiana University and RTVS administrators focus on running a strong and secure organization; WFIU/WTIU journalists focus on bringing you independent news you can trust.
