Welcome This is our story
The Etc. Coffeehouse is the most unique coffeehouse on the U of I campus. It’s the longest-running coffeehouse in Champaign-Urbana (since 1964!), and it raises money to fight hunger in our local community. Where else can you drink coffee and fight hunger?
What is Etc. Anyway? We promise the best quality
It's a Coffee shop
We offer fair-trade, organic teas and coffee, Monday – Friday, in a building that’s nearly 100 years old. The setting can best be described as “vintage casual,” with super-comfy furniture, a huge stone fireplace, and wooden tables that create a really cozy atmosphere.
It’s a great place to study & hang out.
The coffeehouse is a hidden gem as a study space on campus. It’s centrally located and a chill place to read, write, work on class projects, and surf the web (with free wi-fi). We often have free munchies (fruit/nuts/candy/chocolate) if you need a little pick-me-up to keep you going. We have a microwave so you can heat up your lunch. The coffeehouse hosts a few groups each week, including a grad student gathering on Tuesday nights, and a casual Midweek worship service at 7:00 p.m. on Wednesdays. Every Friday, at 4:00 p.m., Etc. plays host to the International Coffeehouse, where American and international students, visiting scholars, and campus folks gather to share coffee and snacks, practice English (and other languages), and learn about each other’s cultures. It’s easy to make friends as the world gathers around your table.
It’s self-serve & donation-based.
We’re run by student volunteers who make sure to keep the pots filled with a variety of hot brews. You just grab a mug, pick out your coffee or tea, and drop a dollar or two in to the Etc. donation box. All proceeds go to the Wesley Food Pantry (which serves about 15,000 people a year) and Illini Fighting Hunger (an RSO that has packaged over 2 million meals). We use ceramic, reusable mugs to be green, but paper cups are also available if you need your joe to go.
