“Not sure why there's an overall rating below two stars for this place, because I was very happy with the service I got from this Dunkin. Being in the urban area, just bordering what's almost the suburbs, it's a little surprising that drive-thru is available. It's a crunched and awkward layout, but it works for this corner-located Dunkin. The staff was SUPER nice and courteous, the service was fast, and my order was made correctly. The i Ed coffee I got was particularly fresh, like I could taste the roasted beans! Def more fresh than I'd normally get from a Dunkin. I also decided to try their new Tomato Toast menu item. I got the avocado spread as an extra- this was good, but it seemed like it was some kind of pseudo-avocado. Like no way could it be fresh for a fast food place so idk how I would expect that, but it reminded me of marketing somehow, I guess because it had a texture almost like it. The flavor was good though, and I would recommend it. Not bad but for $4, I'm not sure I'd get it again over other menu items. Applause tho for the super fresh and beautiful tomatoes! (See pic) Last I'd like to say, people should tip more. It makes me sad seeing the tip cup always empty. I made sure to hand them a $1 bill. Yes it could be called fast-food but these people will work to get your super specific order of "xl-3 sugar-plus 2 pump syrup-use soy milk-light on ice-hold the whip" drinks... you get my point! Pay it forward!!“
“This place is a total experience! The food is delicious, the decor is artsy and beautiful, and the owners are absolute gems. my family and I went for the first time yesterday and had the BEST time. we came for some quick pierogi but stayed for the ambiance, warm welcome, and fantastic conversation with the owners. This cafe is charming beyond belief and we will definitely be back. This is the perfect place to stop in with some friends or loved ones when you are out and about in the neighborhood. I guarantee you will want to come back again and again.“
“My wife and my go to bakery spot in Chicagoland. Everything we’ve gotten here is fantastic, and it is a regular spot we will frequent until we die! Order anything and you will not be disappointed. A short list of everything we love there: cookies, lemon pound cake, olive oil cake, Georgie cake, and their cold brew. The ambiance is also awesome for a date or to just chill with friends. Can’t go wrong here!“
“The cafe is small but super cute and v aesthetic I had a banana crepe to-go and a small latte, super delicious! ? I hope they add more of a variety to their menu soon like something Latino ?? They speak Spanish which is very helpful since my dad only speaks Spanish. Will definitely be back ?✨“
“I went to the opening for October Café yesterday and had such a good time! The drinks are well made and quickly done. The food tastes delicious and is incredibly friendly to those with dietary restrictions. The staff are incredibly kind and well trained. Can't recommend this place enough!“
“Very friendly lady (reminded me of my grandma) in the front to greet you. Cute little local coffee shop. With great prices after COVID especially. Most coffee shops around Chicago area have raised their prices so was nice to spend less. Obviously i support small business' raising their prices to survive. That's life. I ordered a dirty chai and it was great! Great coffee. However was a bit sweet but that was my fault for rushing to the bathroom and not talking to the kind lady about what sweetness I wanted. ALSO the bathroom is very CLEAN. It was like a home bathroom. Please others keep it clean as well :)“
“This is my new favorite spot in La Grange! It is located east of Noodles and Co. on Calendar. It is quite small, but a great place to pick up healthy smoothies and bowls. Most things are dairy free, or vegan. I particularly love their soups! Try them out. The staff is also extremely friendly.“
“I have been to Pantera Superfoods on multiple occasions for smoothie bowls. Their bowls are delicious and the owner is so kind. I am so excited to have this place in Edgebrook. I used to drive to Bucktown for smoothie bowls. Great option on the NW side for a healthy lunch.“

“I enjoyed my drink which was the Yemeni tea with honey. It was so delicious and flavorful. The pastries were yummy too. Love the open atmosphere, especially when the doors are open. The cashier was helpful when I had questions ordering and my drink came out quickly. Highly recommend!“
“This place is 5 stars across the board. The food is delicious, the workers are really nice, and it has a chill relaxing atmosphere. I like going here with a coworker, but I would totally come here to just have a coffee and read.Vegetarian options: You can change most items on the menu to cater to what you needDietary restrictions: You can change most items on the menu to cater to what you need“
“It was our first time yesterday and everyone there was so nice & welcoming! I believe the owners were there cleaning and just being present in their shop. They were so friendly when stopping to talk to customers. The coffee is amazing but they also have breakfast/lunch sandwiches! The Benedict Arnold? 10/10 the biggie shakes? 10/10 & you’re supporting a small business!“
“This place carries a huge variety of magazines, including in foreign languages. That said, my favorite area to browse is the wall of books on Chicago; the various neighborhoods, unique bits of history, architecture and on & on. The cafe area excels in its own right with coffee & pastries - even vegan options. Enjoy a great cup of coffee and live music on weekends. Just a wonderful place.“

“Wow, this place is AMAZING? Great service, hopping atmosphere, and every single one of our dishes were delicious. We will be making this establishment a regular breakfast place during our Chicago visits! Food ordered was: Breakfast burrito Croissant Sandwich Buttermilk pancakes with a side of crispy bacon!“
“The food was good. Reasonable prices and the owners are magnificent. Everybody there. It's a good place to be very friendly. Very the service is good. Everybody can't complain about nothing.And thank God, their prices were so low that I had to ask the waitress if she forgot to add something to do and she said no, that's the price, I said you can't even go to McDonald's for the price, and it was good food. So I'm very happy and I will definitely go back and back and back.“
“I love this coffee shop. They were friendly, they knew me by name, and their coffee and specialty drinks are tasty. I also really enjoyed their Avacado toast. It was absolutely delicious. It is refreshing to go to a locally own coffee shop, that has a wonderful atmosphere, and great prices too. I highly recommend this coffee shop to anyone in the area.“
“LOVE the Brazilian empanadas here & the pao de queijo! All the empanada flavors are delish & I love the crust but some of my favorites include: beef, chicken, ham & cheese & the breakfast ones. I also get the Brazilian lemonade. Place is clean, bright & cheery & I had great service today. This is a favorite for me & I travel here just to get the empanadas & pao de queijo.“
“One of the best coffee roasters in the western burbs, and definitely my favorite coffee shop to work from. Their signature and seasonal drinks are great, plus this location also serves cocktails. Highly recommend!Parking: Parking is ample, but can be a bit tricky due to the layout of the building.“
“I’ve been going to Addis for the past 7 years and rarely skip a day… What drew me in was the very best tasting pour over that I’ve ever had and what keeps me coming back is the family feeling: from the friendly crew behind the counter to the local residents who make Addis a must have part of their daily routine, this place is well worth a try. I guarantee that once you try Addis coffee, their amazing waffles, avocado toast, Ethiopian chechebsa, turmeric lattes etc… you will be hooked!“
“This is a great spot to not only get bubble tea but also Korean hotdogs! Stopped in to try it out, got a couple dogs, and a lemon ginger tea. Cute little place with multiple claw prize games in the back. Nice place to just sit and chat with a friend. Will return to try other items on menu.Parking: Located in small strip mall that has parking for multiple businesses.“
“What an amazing time! The Breakfast Pie (Louisiana Hand Pie) was absolutely delicious, and their Matcha was the perfect accompaniment. The service was incredibly friendly and welcoming - I felt right at home! The decor, with its New Orleans vibes and charming masks, creates such a cozy and inviting atmosphere. Loved every moment of my visit!“
“Really enjoyed this unique coffee and gelato place. Not only was the latte perfect, but the gelato was also really fresh and they had plenty of flavors. I saw others getting Nutella crepes that also looked amazing. Will most definitely come back!“
“I've known for a long time that I can get a great cup of coffee in a pleasant and upbeat shop at Perkolator, but today I learned that they're also a woman-owned business on their Instagram page, so I wanted to hop on here and say, thanks for the great coffee and service, Perkolator. And also thank you for highlighting being woman owned. You rock and I'm celebrating your success today and always.“
“It’s located next to Best Buy. There’s a huge parking lot. I’m not sure if it’s the weather, but traffic was very congested today.It’s a small coffee shop with several places to sit. I got the helios (peach mango) green tea and a ham and egg pastry. There were not a lot of places to sit at the time, so I ended up taking my pastry home to eat. The pastry had a good sized ham and plenty of cheese inside. It was delicious. The helios drink was okay, the flavors could have been stronger. Service was very friendly and helpful. The staff was efficient at making the drinks and preparing the pastries.“
“Five stars for great coffee (I had a large latte), comfy setup, and nice staff. However, I did not like my yuca waffle. It was sticky and chewy, the consistency of a gummy bear. The place was very full and people seem to be enjoying their food, so I will be back and I will try something else.“
“The best cheese cake I have ever had. Good place to stop if you need to bring dessert. So many flavors to choose from. I highly recommend Eli's. I can remember when Eli's restaurant was downtown on East Chicago Ave., We would have dinner and cheesecake for dessert. I always have one in the freezer, for unexpected guest. Peter K.“
“Best coffee shop in all Oak Park, IL, I do like the place, the atmosphere, the coffee is really really good, you should go, have some pastries or croissants. I recommend The Coffee although they have tea and other beverages. I highly recommend this place.The service is outstanding, smooth“

“Of all the places I've tried around the city, Taste of Colombia has the best coffee anywhere in Chicago. My favorite part though is the wonderful people who work there! I feel super fortunate to have them just two blocks from my house. Make sure to give them a try!How cool this place is! They have the best coffee and desserts in all of Chicago, but the best thing is the people who work there. Many thanks to Naima, Toni and Alejandra. Always a pleasure to spend some time with you every weekend!“
“Ate at Harvest Pancake House & Grill for a late breakfast/early lunch and loved it! We got the country skillet and a chipotle chicken avocado panini with fries. Everything was fresh and delicious. I was surprised how good and moist the chicken was. Place was clean and fresh. Service was great and the waitress were all very friendly and polite.“
“I stopped here on a whim to see what this new cute shop offered. A couple was eating a delectable looking cake and I asked if it was good. The woman said yes. I ordered one and OMG! It was delicious. It was a pistachio Tres Leche-like cake with divine frosting. I usually don't indulge in decadent treats, but I'm glad I did. In these weird times, you just have to have a nice treat once and awhile. The owner was very, very nice and offered me Turkish coffee. I like my coffee really strong, but I'll need time to acquire a taste for that. They had a myriad of candies, nuts, homemade logs made with nuts and other yummy looking ingredients and other things i wished they had an English explanation for what they were. They also had beautiful serving sets for, I presume, turkish coffee. The owner said he plans to have more seating and create a little coffee shop. I stopped there after a walk in waterfall glenn with my dogs. What a delightful little excursion and fun discovery today!! I needed this bit of happiness.! It was a nice little gem to discoverP.s. I just read the other reviews and I agree with the "magic door" and "being treated like a guest in the gentleman's home" comment. Spot-on comment. Thank you for your hospitality at Sweet and Salty“
“The cookies are delicious. The brownies are out of this world. And the cinnamon rolls (just had my first one there) are truly the best I've ever had in my life. The staff is warm, friendly and welcoming. Five stars all around for Blackout Baking Co.!“
“This place is legit! I’ve been meaning to try this little taco shop since I can walk to it - yesterday I finally did and wow! Surprised me at how great the food was and will definitely be back again.The inside is small but can seat a few folks but it’s the tables outside that make for a great spot to enjoy some tasty food with friends. Make sure to grab a horchata too! So yummy!“
“Would I visit this place again: YesWas this place clean: YesOutdoor seating: YesWas this place hard to find: NoWhat would I change about this place: NothingWhat was my favorite thing about this place: Real homemade espresso and delicious food. The atmosphere is authentic and I felt at home again.“
“The food was delicious and so fresh! The country fried steak was a little salty but overall delicious! Everything was fairly priced. The server was so friendly and kind. Very attentive as well and they served the food exactly how we asked for it. We will definitely dine in again.“
“I have never had a bad meal from Gnarly. I have been going here for a few months now and I'm just obsessed. Do yourself a favor and check out the specials. Their barista is a freaking genius when it comes to their specialty drinks. I would eat here everyday if I could. If you love soft pretzels gnarly is the place to be.“
“Bravo, what a Perfect Nitche, so nice to see character shine in everything about an establishment, as an Art form, made for community, in such a relaxed, up&coming neighborhood, with such style, class, and considerate perspective of the area's potential. I'm betting this place becomes the Hub of C-Hills relaxation, AM starts, and solid, community networking. These folks nailed it, figured out the formula.Also, I saw the company response to a few negative reviews, and your camera review showed, no such merit in a negative reviews, or bots , but I bring up for not the camera proof rather, the tact and grace employed in the response. Another plus, as everyone from discerning clientele to wandered in, appears more than welcome. Handling reviews like a champ!!!“
“The barista was friendly and made our coffee quickly. But it was lukewarm warm. Would recommend double checking before leaving. Also, the dog “Chanel” is not always there, recommend calling and checking if you are coming to specially meet her.“
“We were driving by, saw this bakery, and decided to stop for coffee. We both ordered a Greek coffee, baklava bites, and galactobouriko. Everything was fantastic. I love that now I have a place to get Greek coffee. So delicious! Totally recommend stopping here.“
“Best shrimp and grits this side of NOLA. Staff is attentive, food is incredible. If you’re looking for a diner with comfort food this is the place. Very reasonably priced, every week a new special. Soup from scratch. Sit at the counter and watch your food being made.“
“This place is amazing. I went to NO a few times in my youth. The first time I went I got red beans and rice right on the street and decided I probably never needed to eat anything else ever. This place brought that back to me. Through sausage on it. Might be gilding the lily but maybe some lily’s like it.The rigamaroo was so freaking good. The po boys were spicy and deliciousThe gumbo. Lord the gumbo. The flavor, then”juice” the gravy…whatever it’s called.l. So good…but I want it to have shrimp in it though…or maybe crawfish…but I might die of deliciousnessCountry music makes me very sad so I took one star away for ambiance. It is the old school stuff so only one point taken away.“
“Didn't know this place existed. Always passed by but was going for some café con leche and a friend suggested we go here because they'd been there and thought it was good. They were not lying! So good that I ordered a 2nd cup! Ordered some appetizers and not the best ,but not the worst either. Columbian food in general is good and this place offers all sorts of items to choose from. We tried at least one of each of the main staple Columbian delicacies- pan de bono, pan de bono with guava , pan de bono con queso( our favs)YUM! And well, it's very very good, the baristas make good café con leche! . The best part, not only does their coffee and food menu offer a good variety, they are open until 9pm daily.. I stop in for coffee here at least 3/4 x's a week. That's how good the coffee and treats are. If you decide to sit and enjoy, the salsa music playing over the speakers will keep you dancing in your seat.. their staff are all attentive and very friendly ,making the whole experience nice. Tip, if you order any of the pan de bonos or empanadas, ask that they warm them up for ( they are alot better warmer. This place is a winner !“
“Went in for the third time yesterday for a quick lunchtime snack and caffeine. On the recommendation of the baristas, I ordered the ham and havarti croissant and a coffee. Both of the items were excellent. The environment was comfortable and well designed for either relaxing or for light work. Left feeling overall pleased with the experience and would definitely return to Vigo again.“
“A cute place! The guy who was working made my boyfriends and my experience so much more enjoyable. He had a smile on his face and was very kind! The coffee and muffin were delicious and the shop is very chill :) we found a new Sunday morning coffee shop stop!“
“Cute little coffee shop with lots of character. Gorgeous sunny spot. The fireplace is a nice touch. Armchairs could do with a clean or be reupholstered.Didn't try the baked goods however they looked great. Please add a savory scone with no ham.. for the vegos. Yum!1* Downside. Sadly cheesy music is way too loud and on repeat. My ears were crying. Struggled to hear my friend sitting next to me. Ruined the chill morning coffee vibes.“
“We moved to EP recently and we’re so happy to find a non-chain coffee place. It was a huge bonus that they have GF options that are really good! Muffins and breakfast sandwiches especially the Express train are delicious. The ambiance is cool and chill. The service is great. Would love to see them get a better oat milk cream.“
“I stopped by BlackBerry market on yesterday and the atmosphere was busy but flowed smoothly. The smell of coffee was invigorating and I got the drip coffee , a chocolate chip cookie, iced peppermint coffee and a raspberry lemon muffin!! Service was smooth and effective, the breakfast items were yummy and fresh!! The coffee of the coffee!! Strong yet tranquil!! Fresh drip is self serve!! Loved that! The iced peppermint coffee was just what I needed !! Let me say this.. after breakfast and coffee.. I came home cooked a full dinner and washed clothing and was done before 1pm! lol energy!!!! Definitely will go back and recommend!!“
“We ordered a pot of the Adeni Chai, khaliat alnahi and the chocolate cake. The chocolate cake is the best chocolate mousse cake I’ve ever tasted and the chai came in a cute glass pot with two glass cups for sharing. It wasn’t too sweet like American chai, but was still creamy and delicious. It did take a long time (30 minutes) to get our order on a Saturday morning which is a pretty long wait.“
“LITERALLY SO FRIENDLY!!!they serve really good matcha iced lattes! They have so much to offer. It’s such a cute coffee shop, they also have live music and free Wi-Fi.I had the bacon burrito with their red salsa (yum!) and the matcha iced late and it was so much cheaper then a venti and a sandwich at Starbucks. 100% recommended will be back ❤️“
“I went there today to get a flavored latte and was very pleasantly surprised that I could actually taste the espresso in it; it's such a rare occurrence but to me it's the mark of a good latte. The staff are also very friendly there. Highly recommend for coffee lovers.“
“I’m getting use to ordering with the McDonald app. But today the app didn’t pickup my location. And Alahnah helped me with my app and took my order. It was so nice that she went out of her way to help me cancel the wrong order on the phone and taking my order inside the store.Parking: Handicap is what I used.“
