It’s Teacher Appreciation Week, and if you’re looking for consumable gifts for the teachers in your life, consider gifting something from a C-U shop or restaurant.
Maybe treat your teachers to coffee from Art Mart or Cafe Kopi. If your teacher has a sweet tooth, grab a treat from Rick’s Bakery, something sweet from The New Sweet Indulgence, or a gluten-free dessert from RegCakes in the Lincoln Square Mall. If you know the teacher likes wine, buy a bottle from Ladro Enoteca, the new bottle shop in Downtown Champaign. For teachers who love to cook, peek into Grovestone for artisan olive oils, vinegar, spices, and more. A small gift card to somewhere you like to eat like Farren’s Pub, Neil St. Blues, or Jarling’s Custard Cup would make a nice gift, too.
Where do you like to find your teacher gifts? Let us know in the comments.
