“Alianos is definitely a spot I'll be coming back to and recommending to friends. Came in on a Friday night and experienced great service from Will, met the GM and shared some good conversation, and food was excellent. Buddy and I ordered fish dishes and they did not disappoint. Will be coming back for sure.“

“Amazing little coffee shop in downtown Elgin. The vibes remind me of being in a small town! They make sure everything is perfection for you when ordering. The coffee packs a punch with good flavor which tells ya they are for-real. I’ll be back for another cup whenever I’m around town.“

“An adorable storefront with friendly service. The cookies here are amazing... their weekly "standard" treats and their specials are delicious. The atypical offering of ice cream flavors will not disappoint either! I placed an order for custom cookies and communication along the way was outstanding. We were really happy with them. A MUST visit whether you're in the area or need to make a road trip!“

“Had an Asiago, sun dried tomato, rosemary scone from Konrads today. I was a bit on the fence about ordering it since they were out of most everything (late in the day before Easter) , and there were a bunch of only this flavor left. Got one anyway. Omg it was BOMB!!! Sooo good, so flavorful I loved it. Highly recommend this savory scone in particular, although, all of their scones are great. Heavenly. A+++“

“I love coming in for celiac friendly treats. Picked up 11 lemon cookies for a friends bday. It was $40 unfortunately I won’t can’t afford that all the time. Why does gluten free items have to be so expensive? Also could use a bit more lemon for that price. Still 5 ⭐️ but I wanted to share a couple suggestions.“

“wonderful new business, I've been there twice and both times I was greeted and thanked which is wonderful and unusual.. the only real complaint is they run out too early, I've made a point not to get there 2 hours before closing..I've tried different items there, peanut butter cookies, croissants, scones. all of them excellent and a bit different in a good way. I would buy more if there was more inventory and I can't be the only one thinking this, judging from all the customers I've seen in the store. I'll try you again next week.“

“After two failed attempts, I eventually acquired the cinnamon square. I swear, when I placed my order using the kiosk machine, it appeared before me in a supernatural manner. I was amazed at how quickly it was ready. It was warm and moist as I bite into it. The texture and temperature were perfect, the icing was silky, and the dough was fluffy, but the flavor was weak, I didn't notice a strong cinnamon aroma.“

“We recently went to Cakes by Kash for our gender reveal cake! It was such a pleasure working with Lindsey and she made the process fun and easy. My husband and I were able to pick out flavors and everything turned out to be delicious! We will definitely be back for our next cake!“

“We are so glad that we stopped by this hidden gem small family own business. Although the store display look kind of empty, what they have are very good. We had the BBQ pork bun (very good), 3 kind of Mille crepe cake (strawberry, rainbow and coffee, all are delicious), mini cookies (also delicious). We also had brown sugar bubble tea and taro sago coconut milk drink (soo good). If you order $30 or more, you get a free Mille crepe cake. Plus, the lady owner is very friendly. We are so happy to find this Asian bakery/dessert place in the Barrington area. We will come back for sure.“

“We have lived here for a year now and finally had the opportunity to visit this place. It did not disappoint!

I would definitely go back there! The staff is kind and very helpful don’t pass up this little gem!“

“I am in love with country donuts! The flavors are so delicious and you can taste the freshness. The lattes are great too! I had their cherry filled chocolate frosted donut which was generously filled, a chocolate glazed, and a lemon cake old fashioned. All were delicious! I also had a white chocolate pecan cookie which was amazing, big and chewy and sweet. Excited to visit many more times and try many more flavors. The prices are cheaper than most coffee/donuts shops. Fantastic donuts! Moist and fresh tasting. I doubt you can go wrong with anything you try at this place. The service is always bright and cheerful every day. Can't wait to go back again at this place. Thank you, Country Donuts.“

It’s in a strip mall but that adds to the charm & the surprise that one will find the bestGerman food with American influences in the suburbs at this little gem!

You will not find better German in burbs“

“This place is brilliant, go inside. They used to hang up my mothers art, I know they choose their displays very intentionally and when I heard my mom's excitement about her photography on display here I knew I had to come. The coffee is great, try anything with lavender if you are looking to switch things up! TIP YOUR BARISTAS THEY MAKE THE WORLD GO ROUND! Love a fan, Viktoria Cowen“

“Ana was a pleasure to work with and so accommodating! My husband and I wanted a cake to find out the gender of our baby, so I called and asked if it was possible for her to make something for this past weekend. Not only did she make it work but the cake was absolutely delicious! It was also so pretty! We were so pleased with our experience and plan to order from her bakery again ASAP! The staff I spoke to and/or met in person were all extremely friendly and warm. Thank you again!“

“If I can give this bakery 10 stars I would. We ordered two birthday cakes/pastries here for my daughter's birthday. My sister in law loves ordering here for her party and that was when I tried their cakes and oh my goodness, It was one of the best cake I have ever had. Its a little pricey but Its so worth it. My whole family enjoyed it when I served the cake for my daughter's birthday. I will definitely be back. Highly recommend this bakery for quality and taste.“

I will continue to go there as long as they are open every now and then for that sweet special treat.***Edited to add, even a few days later, the carrot cake is dangerous and the kids won't stop asking for the cookies.Kid-friendliness: My kids love their cookies as well. They are always coming up with fun and new ideas. It is definitely the way to go for any special events and even birthday parties. Crumble cookies are the new thing.“

“SUPER DELICIOUS! We get the gluten free and it's so good! can barley tell it's gluten free the only disappointment is that the gluten free only come in one flavor. A very good flavor, but still. I would love to have more gluten free options“

“Tom's Farm Market is the epitome of excellence. Though a little early for their veggies and fruits, in June, all their baked goods were on display for the taking. So inviting and wonderful. They're salads, chicken, macaroni, etc are always fresh and oh so delicious. Is it, if you can, and see all the scrumptious foods and their gift shop and collectibles. Believe me, Tom's is a great!“

So, please always stay open. :) Whether you eat alone or with company the staff is caring and make u feel like your home.“
