FaireCoffee - Eureka — Restaurant in Eureka

Faire coffee at a faire price.

With plans to go paddle boarding in Eureka, Emily and I stopped to get some fuel for a fun day on the water. I’ve visited the other Faire Coffee places (Peoria and Washington) so it’s only fair to visit this one, too.

We got here in that time between breakfast and lunch and it was busy. I was surprised by the number of people inside. We didn’t have to wait too long to order our coffee (and two stickers and a bakery item). Shockingly, I didn’t get my usual americano and got an iced brown sugar cinnamon latte instead.

We plopped down at a table and waited maybe 5 minutes for our drinks to be made. Not a long wait considering the level of business. Emily’s drink came up first and she let me try it and it was delish. It was the Cheerio Bowl Latte and the flavor lives up to the name. It made me excited to see how good mine was going to be. A minute or two later, mine was served up and I quickly took a test sip. While it wasn’t as sweet as Emily’s drink, it was dang good in it’s own way.

Emily got a lemon blueberry bakery item and she let me try a piece. Wow. I wasn’t expecting it to be packed so full of flavor but it hits you with the first bite.

The interior of Faire Coffee is interesting… between the aesthetics of a modern coffeehouse with the core of the building being a reflection of it’s past businesses plus what looked like a vault near the back half of the interior. I bet the vault area is used for storage as that’s pretty common for these older buildings. There seemed to be more to the back half but we didn’t make it beyond the pick up counter as we were just looking to get a quick coffee in before what amounted to a fun and funny day of driving all over the back roads of central Illinois and paddle boarding. I will say that the table we took a seat at was a bit on the flimsy side and probably should be replaced with something meant more for public use.

Faire Coffee is a fairly good place to get your caffeine fix. I hope it becomes a staple to the Eureka business district and to the people...

3/25/25. Got called in to jury duty. On our lunch, I walked over and enjoyed a great meal and a tasty mocha frappe with an extra espresso shot. All of my items came out fast and delicious. After I was done I was still hungry and I had a couple pieces of puzza I was going to have for my lunch before being selected for jury duty, and the staff here was nice enough to let me heat them up. Extremely kinda and welcoming. The atmosphere is amazing, mixing ild and new styles with calming christian music to brighten this rainy day. I will absolutely be back for more. THANK YOU FOR BEING...

I was greeted with a smile and friendly attitude by the cashier. The business offers a specialty drink menu. The barista was pleasant and efficient. The hot mocha was flavorful and smooth. Dinnerware is available for those wishing to enjoy their drinks or treats inside. Light snacks, meals, bottled drinks, coffee beans and logo shirts are also offered. Comfortable seating with a variety of chairs and tables for groups or singles. Pleasant, bright atmosphere with radio music and interesting decor. Parking was close....
