Edit: IF YOU WANT THE HIGHEST QUALITY INGREDIENTS - COME HERE! Added photos of my new favorite item here (for now)…The Blue Lagoon bowl is ADDICTING!!! Absolutely so delicious & feels healthy eating it. I’ve gotten 3 already & will grab more.

Loved welcoming in this new local cafe, named after a late grandmother who inspired the current owner to pursue this dream! We had a cortado, a hot matcha with their house-made vanilla cardamom, the Lox toast, the Sweetness Overload crepe, and the Chicken Caesar crepe - thoroughly enjoyed EVERYTHING. The lox was incredible.
Kind, hard working team behind the scenes. Major shoutout to Faith for being so sweet and pouring lots of love into the food/bevs!

Had the most amazing hot matcha latte with their house made vanilla syrup! Bright and modern space, with some limited seating, but will definitely be coming back! Super reasonably priced!

Very friendly staff and the food and drinks are absolutely amazing. My toddler gives five stars to the PB&J and banana strawberry milkshake. Can't wait to go again! One of my favorites is the chocolate banana milkshake!

Absolutely loved this new café in Buffalo Grove! I tried their smoothie and a crepe, both were delicious and freshly made. The smoothie was perfectly blended and refreshing, and the crepe was light, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The service was friendly and quick, and the place itself is spotless and welcoming. Such a great addition to the area, I’ll definitely be coming back!
