50 Best Cafes near Darien

“food is always great, great variety, delicious, but especially the service is the best. my favorite for breakfast .“

“Nice ladies at front, pretty decent coffee. I’ve played these exact machines at highest wager at many places and I do believe the payout on wins is tweaked down a bit here. Probably would recommend going to an actual casino or maybe at a bar not designated for slots.“

“I have only been here a few times but have never been disappointed. They have amazing customer service in person and over the phone. They go above and beyond. The food is amazing as well. It’s a very welcoming vibe and the prices are very reasonable.“

“Everything you could want on their menu trust me“

“Chose to come here because it’s a halfway point between my friend’s and I’s homes, and it was such a pleasant experience! The atmosphere was very nice and calm, the smells were divine, and the service was excellent! We got to chat with the owner for a second and she was absolutely darling! I had a strawberry matcha latte with brown sugar boba and I know in a week I’ll be craving it again. 10/10 will be coming back again!“

“This is hands down our favorite restaurant. We eat here at least twice a week, and the consistency is one of the main reasons we keep coming back. The service is warm, efficient, and always welcoming. The chicken skewers are outstanding. Perfectly seasoned, tender, and cooked just right every time. They are flavorful without being heavy, and you can tell the ingredients are fresh. The Greek salad is equally impressive. Crisp vegetables, generous feta, balanced dressing, and always fresh. It is simple, but done exceptionally well. When a restaurant can deliver this level of quality consistently multiple times a week, that says everything. We highly recommend it.“

“Good food and friendly staff.“

“By far the best sandwiches in southwest burbs. Besides that, you have to try their soups and fresh bakery treats. 5 stars all around!“

“My wife and I have been to Petite Vie several times over the last few years. For the handful of times we've been there, we've enjoyed the great food.

However, the service is equal to the food, which helps in rounding out a restaurant that you'll want to come back to. Also, there's a nice, lively atmosphere that we enjoyed during our time there.

The food was on point and presented beautifully. The wine list was well represented with nice selections of bottles and wines by the glass.

If you're looking for a great restaurant in the western suburbs, give Petite Vie a try. You'll enjoy the food, the service and the wine.“

“coolest coffee place in cambria staff was unbelievable will be come back great food and even better drinks“

“My go-to coffee is from the Little Creperie. I used to be a starbucks drinker, and now I can’t ever go back to it after tasting the quality of Little Creperie’s coffees. My absolute favorites are the Honey Lavender Latte, Pistachio Creme Latte, and Mocha. Not only do the coffees taste amazing, but the presentation is so cute!!“

“I purchased a Biscoff cheesecake and it greatly exceeded my expectations!!“

“Everything I’ve had from here has been delicious! Highly recommend!“

“High quality trivia night host. Incredible food on a changing menu. Great place to hang with friends and family. Or a great place to sip wine and hang out with one of the many in-house books. Classy and laid back atmosphere.“

“First things first, the food was honestly okay. The steak skillet didn't have too much steak, was a bit chewy, but otherwise it filled myself up and had some good flavor. The pancakes were not that great, they were a bit spongy and didn't taste as good as I'd like but pretty standard for a breakfast place
Now, the service was a different story, honestly my server made me feel very comfortable, speedy delivery, no mistakes whatsoever, kind and sweet. I I would keep going here again and again just because I feel very welcome in this establishment.“

“some of the best breakfast food I have ever had! great great food and great service!“

“Sweetest people work there and the food is great!“

“Never been to something like this and found it on google looking for a dessert type place to go with family. It was pretty expensive and overwhelming with options but we just weren’t familiar with this type of place. We settled with a chocolate shake and a chocolate lava cake and it was freaking delicious. It looks like a hot mess but it was 10/10. The flavors aren’t like a normal brownie or cake batter for the cake, it wasn’t Nutella and was melted chocolates, and I never had gelato before and the vanilla gelato was a like custard like cream cheese type of flavor and texture and it was really good.

The shake was super light and fluffy. Hard to describe but different.

Atmosphere was clean and nice. We really liked it.“

“Our family absolutely loves Bb's donuts! We do miss being able to go inside the donut shop. So many wonderful memories taking our little girl there to eat donuts and read a book or two. We have a little boy with Autism and it's not safe for him to sit in front by the busy street because he runs. Wish we could go inside to enjoy donuts & coffee knowing it's something our son would truly enjoy.“

“The cafe is awesome! Great people and always great service! They giving you the best they got and it’s at highest standards! You will not be disappointed!“

“Yum. The food was fantastic.“

“Love, love, love this place and that it’s so close to home! Chill atmosphere, good tunes and they support other local businesses and artists. If you haven’t tried the “Wildflower” it’s a must! 🍃☕️🤎“

“After driving past Elijah's in the mornings for the last few months I finally decided to stop in and give it a try (you should always try to support local). I ordered a large Black Coffee with a shot of espresso, I even mentioned to the guy making my coffee that it was my first time here and he was polite and said Welcome. (When was the last time you heard someone say welcome?) The girl behind the counter asked if I wanted anything else and I asked If they made there Scones fresh and she said yes we bake daily. I bought a variety to bring to the gig for the crew this morning. My Coffee was made exactly the way I make it at home and the Scones were still warm and made me feel like I was on Arthur Avenue at Morrone's pastry in the Bronx waiting in line for them to come out of the oven fresh. I must give Elijah's Coffee 5 stars today and recommend it to everybody and I will now be a customer. Thank you for keeping that real original old school home town vibe in a Corporate jungle of garbage we are forced to deal with in this world today. Elijah's Specialty Coffee“

“Best breakfast place we’ve been to in a while! Food was great and delivered quickly, service was kind, and the restaurant felt friendly. Would definitely recommend!

We ordered the Matt’s Meaty Skillet with sourdough toast, the Waffle with strawberries, and added bacon and Harbor Potatoes. Don’t miss the Harbor Seasonings on the table for extra flavor as well!“

“Great service, great food!“

“Great food, ambiance and service!“

“The lemon ricotta cookies are amazing! Also Spimoni or Italian ice are delicious as well!“

“Friendly staff! Delicious authentic food!“

“Visited this cafe with my friend on a quiet weekday evening and we both ended up liking it more than expected. The lighting was warm, music stayed soft, and nobody was rushing customers even as it got busier later. I ordered cheesecake with hot chocolate while my friend tried pasta and coffee. The cheesecake texture was soft and fresh instead of dry. Our drinks took slightly longer because they were handling several takeaway orders, but staff apologized and kept things moving calmly throughout the evening rush.“

“Delicious food! Fast and friendly service!“

“Best chicken salad and macaroni salad I've ever had!“
