Hidden, but really good.The entrances are hard to spot--feels like a secret door. But they are still so busy!The interior is great for a college town coffee shop and their menu is good. They even have a gluten-free option for sandwiches. Their house coffee is solid which is my standard.As busy as they are, I recommend ordering online.

First time at their newer location and had a great experience. I thought the menu boards looked amazing both with the variety to choose from and the creative display. The homemade beauty products they sell in the front part of the store added to the cozy feel of the place & seemed like a great line of products with fun names. My drink was a great value for the price I paid and how well it tasted, so I defiantly recommend checking them out if you are looking for coffee, tea, or just a place to grab a meal especially with the great size seating area they have. The employees are helpful and patient while people order which is very important at a coffee shop and the baked goods on the counter looked delicious and I plan on not eating before I head over next time so I have room to try one. I am glad to see a place like this in jacksonville and next time I am in town I will be meeting up with friends here again.

Excellent food & service!

Coffee was great. I got a strong four shot Americano in 20 oz cup. My eyes wont close now.😜 also, the cute little girl that made my coffee with the beanie on in shorts you can come Trucking with me anytime.😘

Food and latte were excellent. I love the selection of lip balms and lotions too!

This is a charming coffeehouse with good coffee and delicious pastry just at the center of the town.

Seriously... whether you are going east or west... take the time to stop by this gem. Amazing tea and coffee selection; little surprises everywhere in the store from decor to shelf product. A truly wonderful visit in our bucketlist search for the ultimate coffee shoppe experience. Best part... there were bags of used coffee grounds on the patio with a note that they are free for the taking to add to compost piles - AWESOME!! Best, best part... a pay-it-forward wall with drinks purchased by patrons that can be used by anyone who either forgot their wallet (lack of coffee plays with the mind), or when there is more month left after the paycheck has lived put its usefulness. Seriously, just a gem find!!

Great smoothies excellent staff and amazing 👏 sandwiches.

Can not keep a coffee consistant when making it from one day to the next I order the same thing and they only get it right every other time smh waste of money I guess

Cool vibe/ atmosphere and building has cool architecture the drinks were great as well

Absolutely a gem of a coffee shop on the quaint town square. A very cool and eclectic vibe without being campy and overdone. Cafe Al Lait made in the traditional French method without any unnecessary whamwham, zoomzooms messing it up. Apple muffin was very fresh and flavorful and the employees were interested and conscientious in their tasks. Very good sanitizing protocols in place too. If youre in the area, stop in..

Eclectic coffee shop. Good food.

Amazing place. Best place to get coffee and a little snack, even a lunch item. They have all kinds of small homemade items. Its a great place too visit everyday!

Clean although one patron said I looked like a rapper probably off the street. Granted, I had a court date that afternoon so...

Really cute, laid back, small town coffee place. Large menu - bagels, wraps, muffins, cookies, scones, and a delightful flourless chocolate tarte! The gals at the counter were really chill and nice; offered great suggestions. I also had a chai tea latte - the flavor was excellent! Most places, in my opinion, dont add enough spice- i like mine prettttty spicy haha. So yea it was great but cold....or rather luke warm. Only complaint i have for the place. And its not a complaint, just worth mentioning and funny in my opinion - when i walked in everyone who was seated at the few table scattered about the front - haha they all turned and looked at me. I Guess if i lived in a town as small as this i would turn and look too, thinking that i would most likely know the person walking in. Haha it was awkward but funny and cute and small townish in a really great way! All of it!

The place is the bomb for coffee, food and just a magnificent atmosphere. Abbi is the best barista around!!!

Super cute coffee shop!

Food was good. Coffee was ok.

Great chai latte! Parked in the square and walked down S Sandy to get here!

As someone who doesnt drink coffee, this is still a great place to go. The hot chocolate and creative coffee creations are delicious. The menu of goodies are delicious (especially the flour less chocolate, yum!)

Loved the Pink Phaze Lavender drink, however, the staff wasnt very friendly.

Our coffee and breakfast was great & didnt expect the interior to be so unique from the outside appearance! Will be returning when Im in town

Great tastes and super friendly costumer service.

Delicious. Authentic and flavorful. Nice restaurant with friendly staff.

Great coffee and bagels!!! From out of town and stopped in for a local breakfast experience and loved this little spot. Staff is super!

Very nice and helpful with a lot of options.

Best coffee around with all the extras 🙂

Im from Nashville, TN, so I know a thing or two about good, locally owned coffee houses. Soap Co. Coffee House is a small business that Im surprised to find in Jacksonville. Its probably a good thing, they can capitalize on the fact that Jacksonville remains a college town with few hangout spots.The inside of Soap has a rustic hipster ambience with a good selection of breakfast wraps and pasties. I had a vanilla chai latte that I believe was one of the best chai lattes Ive ever had.I honestly wish I could lift this shop up and take it back home with me.

A quaint little place with a eclectic atmosphere. I enjoyed the decor and the fresh food. The coffee was the perfect blend.

I recommend the iced spice tea its the best!^^

If your looking for a great hot cup of delightful coffee & danish. This is your shop. Step into a beautiful landscaped interior that will give you a piece of Wow. Shop some great treasures to take home as a reminder. Staff are great. Super friendly. My daughter treats me here quite often. Bring your laptop, tablet or great book. Relax & enjoy a few get away hours all your own. You deserve greatness.

Cutest shop in Jacksonville by a long shot. Pleasant, calm atmosphere. Good smells, good music.

Quite the unexpected gem in town! I ordered a Matcha latte and it was delicious. I was lucky and stumbled upon this shop just before closing time. Parking was simple and service was fast. They also have great items to purchase beyond drinks.

Best coffee in town

This is probably my favorite coffee shop Ive ever been to. I would go here even if it were in a bigger city -- were lucky to have it in Jacksonville. I especially like their open mic events and the art on their walls. You know, aside from the obvious coffee. Yum.

Always a great experience at Soap Co! Staff is friendly and quick. The atmosphere is so calming yet exciting and content. Coffee and tea is always fixed to perfection. Their food is very good too. Highly recommend. Great place to catch up with a friend.

Shop local! The owner here is an amazing, hard working woman who worked her fingers to the bone to make this place what it is today. Which is a beautiful, cozy coffee house with the option to buy local merchandise from vendors in the surrounding area. This shop is overflowing with creativity and positive energy. They even host a poetry night and several other community oriented events. I highly recommended this coffee shop to anyone who loves coffee and peaceful atmosphere.

I ordered a coffee blended and it was hot coffee. Then I tried called 6 times for someone to fix it and no one would answer my call! Just spent 5$ on a coffee I couldn’t even drink.

The smells of coffee & the delicious food you had on the menu was enticing the moment we stepped in the front door. Had a long line of patiently waiting customers. Well worth the wait! Keep up the great job you are doing. Awesome job Renee keeping up with the crowd!

I love this place. From the decor to the coffee. This place has amazing coffee and food. I would recommend this place to everyone.

Fun atmosphere, enjoyed the scone and iced coffee. 😊

Good food reasonably priced in a cozy and delightfully eclectic atmosphere. I always enjoy my time there.

One of my favorite local coffee place. ☕

Very nice, interesting, eclectic cafe in the heart of Jacksonville. Food and desserts are very tasty with plenty of options to choose from when it comes to coffees and teas. They even have really fun, locally made arts and crafts. You can also purchase hand made soap that comes in charming shapes.One of my favorite spots when I come to visit this town.

Great small Business ran by a wonderful young lady great coffee wonderful pastries and out of this world breakfast sandwiches

Excellent place to come visit. The service is alway fast and friendly. Probably the best coffee shop in all of central Illinois. If youre ever in Jacksonville Illinois... this is the place to go!

Great service, great coffee, and great food as well! Its a great place to support local business, and a comfy hang out spot!

Soap Co coffee is amazing. It is the best I have tasted so far. It has sugar free flavors, which is what I have to drink and they are wonderful. Good food and they also sell exotic soaps!! Highly recommend if you are ever in Jacksonville, IL.

Their coffee is amazing!! A perfect place to grab a healthy bite and hot or cold beverage. Wonderful atmosphere!

Only place in Jacksonville I get coffee. Environment is really nice. Like the art for sale. Staff is really friendly

Great friendly staff. Interesting atmosphere. Good coffee. Excellent cookie. Highly recommend.👍👏

Everyone rants and raves about their coffee, but you know what most coffee shops mess up 9 times out of 10? A damn London Fog. Ive given up ordering them most places except by a friends recommendation but I decided to try theirs on an impulse and... it was just perfect. Ive looked and looked and looked and it turns out one of the best London Fogs in the tristate area is just an hour away. Youre doing yourself a disservice not giving them a chance if youre in Jacksonville!

Great local spot for good coffee!

Consistently wonderful coffee in a friendly, comfortable space. I always enjoy stopping in.

I always buy a Caramel macchiato with two extra shots of espresso, and its glorious. Better than Starbucks by far, and they make their own caramel flavoring, which taste amazing! Support this small coffee shop, their friendly staff, and relaxing atmosphere!

I absolutely adore this place. Ill take this place before any Starbucks ever. This place is amazing, kind, and overall just wonderful.

Grew up in this town. But life moves you around so I had not been back here for quiet a while. But I’m visiting now and just found the little gem of a coffee shop. It’s in a Civil War era building over 100 years old. I am spoiled with all the great coffee roasters of the Pacific Northwest so I’m picky about my coffee. Get in this place and taste the roast on their coffee it is really good. Lots of great baked treats to choose from.

The staff is supper friendly and have a lot of different options for drinks and soaps etc. I enjoyed looking at the different options.

The best.

Nice selection of coffee and pastry, and always clean with a very nice atmosphere... my goal is to make it to an open mic night...

Such a cool place! Yummy coffee and baked treats.

This is a great little coffee shop. Great coffee, friendly staff, and an eclectic decoration. This is a fun little shop.

Best Americano Ive ever had. Love the atmosphere and the pleasant staff.

One unquie locally own place! Wonderful caring staff. I love local own places! Nicole Riley and her staff are wonderful!

Love this place! Visiting my boyfriends family in Roodhouse and was getting desperate for an ice coffee. This place not only delivered but its one of the better ones Ive had. My boyfriend got a smoothie and a bagel, both delicious. Hopefully theyll open a place up in Boston soon! ;-)

Great coffee and teas! They also have scones, cookies, breakfast crossiant sandwiches. For lunch they have sandwiches and chips. Great food great service.

Best place to get coffee in town with a relaxing atmosphere , nice ppl and got ton of stuff to buy and its another version of Starbucks but better and cozy

Nice little place with a very good atmosphere.

Great made to order drinks. I love that they offer almond milk. There staff is great and very professional.

Lovely staff, and the food is absolutely delicious! I love their cookies, coffee, soup, and sandwiches.

Love this place more than anything

Amazing environment, delicious drinks, and cool local things to buy! Their bagel sandwiches are also really good.

I would definitely recommend. Its the best coffee place I have found and definitely the best in Jacksonville.

Really good atmosphere, the loft is perfect for study or hushed conversation. Had an espresso and a Spiced Chai. Chai was a little on the sweeter side. I took off a star because I believe I received a leftover shot for my espresso.

Great Things:1. Great, easy location.2. Ive been to all the other coffee shops within a 1 hour radius and none of them can top their Frozen Blendy.3. They have great Chia tea as well.4. They have a fb page and a website.Only drawback:They close at 3pm. Wish they were open longer but great coffee shop!

Cute place, great drinks, and the breakfast burrito was really excellent!!
