“Great food n excellent service“

“I love Panera! I have the Sip Club pass and it’s such a game-changer — being able to grab my favorite drinks anytime is the best. The food is always fresh and consistent, and the service is so friendly and warm. The staff are genuinely kind and helpful, and the whole vibe is just cozy and welcoming. Whether I’m grabbing something quick or hanging out for a bit, it’s always a great experience. Definitely one of my favorite spots!“

“Always friendly, the food is always fresh, and the place is in my always clean. The men's facilities are in my opinion clean. The most important thing to me is that the entrees are fresh, the food is hot. Highly recommend. If you have yet to try it out already, check in out and decide for yourselves. 👍🏼🙏🏼😃“

“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.“

“Good food and friendly staff.“

“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!“

“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!!“

“Sparrow really ticked all the boxes; robust and flavorful espresso in a latte complimented by flavor rather than overpowered by it, delicious grilled cheese with a substantial pull, and very friendly service. Seating is a little bit of a melee but worth it.“

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

“Just discovered this amazing European Cafe/Bakery. I ordered a "J" cake in pink for my daughter-in-law and it was out of this world! Very light, whipped cream frosting, decorated just beautifully! I'll be ordering one next for my birthday in March :)“

“Please is perfect in all aspects.“

“Brewpoint is a gem in the Western suburbs of Chicago. I am entirely blessed to live blocks from their craft location on York. Exposed brick, chandeliers, and a plant wall surrounds you - a grateful reprieve from cookie cutter Starbucks decor. Coffee, matcha, and baked goods are top notch (haven't tried cocktails or charcuterie yet). A wonderful mix of professionals, college students, community organizers, and socially conscious suburban moms escaping the kids (I'm sure I'm missing wonderful others). Sometimes I'm not sure how I manage to keep living in the suburbs when the city is still home for me after 10 years in Elmhurst, but Brewpoint certainly makes it easier.“

“Come check out Fuel up in Bolingbrook trust me it won’t disappoint it’s worth it. Great workers amazing environment. They have great and amazing protein options it’s good and healthy at the same time.“

“great drinks and great service. Best matcha I've ever had“

“It's a decent breakfast place. Portions are good but it's not cheap. Also I feel like the quality of their food has gone down noticeably since I first went there three years ago, my Mom doesn't want to go here anymore. It's still good enough, but Hen House of Wheaton is down the road and their food is WAY better. But also way more pricey. It's in this weird place where it's not cheap enough for me to want it as a budget option, but the food isn't quite good enough for me to want to have brunch with my parents.“

“Yum. The food was fantastic.“

“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!“

“BlackBerry market is outstanding. Not only is the food fresh and tasty, the staff are always friendly and helpful. I have been hooked from the very first time I visited, and I’ve also gotten members of our staff hooked as well!!

Thank you BBM! We love that you’re all here in the community!!

“I came from Dallas and I really loved their food and services. That lady customize our food for us it was very lovely. Also the interior decor was just amazing.
I ordered Cajun pasta, bun kabab, and mojito. Everything was wonderfulz“

“Enough variety in the menu to keep things interesting. Everything I've ever eaten here has been excellent including some truly amazing soups. The staff is wonderful. What more could anyone want in a restaurant? I love this place!“

“Lovely place and staff a regular here and they know my drink order at heart! I highly recommend the white chocolate latte iced with caramel drizzle. Very delicious! Also recommend the chicken keema puff reminds me of one I had when I went to Pakistan. 10/10“

“Had a lovely Valentine’s Day brunch here! No notes! everything was absolutely phenomenal. The baguette was one of the best I’ve had. Incredible jam and butter to go with it🙂 If I had so say something the soup could’ve used more salt but I could’ve just asked and they’d happily bring more“

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

“This was a great place to eat! We tried it yesterday, during our trip, and were throughly pleased with it all. The restaurant looks great, service was fast, and the food was delicious. I’d recommend this to others.“

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

“Nice efficient and great service; items sold are also very good“

“Pure breakfast perfection. The food is fresh, hearty, and cooked with care—fluffy pancakes, crisp bacon, and coffee that never stops flowing. But the real magic is the service: friendly, lightning-fast, and genuinely warm. It’s the kind of place where every morning feels like home. Five stars, no question.“

“We love the healthy food and the amazing owner.“

“I came upon this café with my boyfriend a while back and I have to say, its the perfect mom and pop breakfast/lunch café. Located in a quiet quaint strip with ample parking. During the summer they even offer outdoor seating to those that would choose. Mimi is always on top of her customer care and knowledge of the menu. You will never have an empty coffee cup and you will always leave in a better mood because of her warm and bubbly personality. That kind of positivity is contagious! Even on slightly busy days, Mimi and her staff work very hard to learn their customers and welcome them back like family. Its very enjoyable observing how warm the staff is to nrw and returning cutomers. This is my favorite breakfast nook now and I know it will be for you too if you truly appreciate a family home-cooked atmosphere <3“

“The food was amazing and so was the service. Enjoyed everything we had. Also the espresso martini(s) was pretty good too 😉 Something here for everyone.“

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

“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“

“Tribute in Villa Park is the coziest, quirky little night spot around! Tribute is not way off the beaten path located across the street from the Villa Park Historical museum and the Illinois Prairie Path.

When you're inside Tribute you just feel at home and you get a neighborly backyard party kind of feeling.

The staff is super friendly and they have a fun trivia night on Wednesdays.

There's a spacious outdoor patio and a cozy banquet/ meeting room with floor to ceiling windows that makes you feel like your outdoors.

Tribute is a great little place!“

“I visited a charming establishment today with a laid-back vibe, perfect for enjoying the slot machines. The cleanliness was remarkable, making it a pleasant space to play. Our host, Omar, was incredibly attentive, checking in regularly to enhance our experience. A great spot for a relaxing gaming outing! Highly recommended!

Parking: Plenty of free parking.“

“I have not found anything that I do not enjoy. All the dessert are wonderful“

“Excellent food , excellent service , clean , great menu, highly recommend“

“I stopped by the Glen Ellyn Metra train station for some coffee, and got a surprise. It was a real pleasure talking to Mary, who is not only selling great coffee and scones (more tasty and affordable than the chain stores), but working with other stakeholders in the space to keep the building clean while also maintaining a vegetable garden on the grounds surrounding the station. After talking with her, it's obvious to me that she is pursuing a labor of love, and she is a true inspiration. I can't think of a more pleasant way to board the train in the morning, or just hang out for a game of chess when things are quiet during the day. More towns should get creative like this and make these kinds of spaces more inspiring, rather than just a drab place to gather while in a rush to get somewhere else.“

“The daily specials are always delicious and affordable!“

“Thank you for amazing service. Between the food and coffee you always have something delicious. The environment is warm and inviting making you feel at home. Thank you for having your space as a same space. I had a wonderful time.“

“Great food, ambiance and service!“

“Best Mediterranean food around quality value and family friendly. Staff is the best! It’s a must.“

“A fantastic juice-smoothie place. They also have salads and smoothie bowls. Excellent staff.“

“This breakfast/brunch place is phenomenal. My 1st visit to a First Watch and we were not disappointed. The coffee, food and service (Jordan was our waiter) were terrific. Jordan was attentive and kept us happy. I would recommend this place to all!“

“Excellent service and a really nice atmosphere, with plenty of good food choices, especially if you’re looking for healthier options. Two of us had breakfast along with lattes, and the total came to around $60 before tip, which feels pretty typical for inner city Chicago pricing.

The maple bacon was fantastic. We did wait about 15 minutes, but the place was clearly busy, so it made sense. Overall, a great experience.“
