6 Best Coffee Shops in Carol Stream

“I had such a fantastic experience at Ethio Beans! If you love bold flavors, rich traditions, and warm hospitality, you need to check this place out. We started with sambussa, which came with a flavorful dipping sauce (I think it was awaze), and it was delicious! For our main meal, we got two veggie combos with injera, misir wot (spiced lentils), alicha wot (mild stew), gomen (collard greens), and cabbage, plus a side of alicha potatoes with carrots. Everything was perfectly seasoned, and the misir wot was my favorite! We nearly finished the whole platter, but what we took home was just as good the next day. One of the best parts of the experience was the Ethiopian coffee, which they served with burning incense—not only did it smell amazing, but it was also the best coffee I’ve ever had. I also ordered Ambo water, and the owner smiled and said, “Ah, you know!” which made me feel like I really knew what I was doing. 😆 They also have a small shop next door full of Ethiopian spices, groceries, and traditional servingware, which was such a cool surprise! If you’re looking for incredible Ethiopian food and a welcoming atmosphere, I highly recommend Ethio Beans! Can’t wait to go back—next time, I have to decide if I get the coffee again or try the tea! ☕“

“What better way to celebrate after a baseball game than at our favorite breakfast place! Food is always amazing, and they are so sweet to our boys!“

“Very friendly staff and friendly people that come to Dunkin“

“Still the best coffee around!! AND you can get it delivered right to your door!“

“My favorite Dunkin’, not only because is only blocks away from my home but because there is this lady in the mornings that always wishes you a nice day with a smile, she always tells me, see you tomorrow… she knows I’m there almost every day and her vibe makes me feel really good.“

“#1) I ordered an Iced Latte with less ice (in store) I politely confirmed this with the cashier and she confirmed it with the coffee maker verbally. It was completely filled with ice so I commented on it, she told me it was less ice but I refused it. So she dumped it into a new cup and topped it off for me. I needed a few napkins to clean it off myself.#2) The cashier was transferring doughnuts as I walked up, she removed one glove and then took my order and counted my cash and coins back with both hands (one glove/one bare) and then proceeded to transfer the doughnuts with the "money" glove.#3) The coffee was up to par with it's taste.My relationship with Dunkin is thick as I get my wife an Iced Latte EVERYDAY (sometimes myself too) We have been travelling for the last two years so I've been to many Dunkins between here and Florida. The less ice wasn't even attempted and the worker telling me I'm wrong was just an attempt to not correct it. The handling of food and cash/coins with the same glove is just nasty and not standard practice within the food industry. This Review is based on my ONE visit as we just arrived in the area. There are other Dunkin Doughnuts in the area I'll try next time.“
