Brewpoint Coffee - Founder's Cafe

Great coffee. Been here a couple times and gotten borealis. Atlas was slightly better than average but coffee quality is great. Only reason it's a 4 is due to pricing. drinks are atleast 6 but mostly 7$

Nice to place to study/ work. I’ve tried their cold brew twice and it was a miss each time. Super bitter and acidic. I appreciate there big selection of gf vegan bakery items :)

On September 21st, earlier in the day, I ordered a double espresso and received what you see in the photos. When they handed it to me, I could hardly believe there was actually anything in the cup. The menu board showed the portion should have been 12 or 16 oz, but instead I got this.

The barista who made and served the drink was rude, and this so-called “extra strong” coffee was barely warm and completely undrinkable. I will never return to this place. It makes me wonder what the owner’s real goal is — just to take people’s money, no matter if the drink is impossible to enjoy or has to be thrown away.

One of my favorite coffee shops I’ve ever tried - and I love coffee shops! Queer-friendly, delicious, and cozy 🥰

We had a good experience here! Nice quiet cafe in downtown elmhurst! Good coffee and vegan muffins. The service was good! I will go back again. We tried the mocha and banana bread latte. Also pecan pumpkin muffin and banana muffin. There’s additional seating in the back of the cafe and outside seating too.

Good beans, but the coffee is almost never hot—even when asking for “extra hot.” Service is slow, and unlike other specialty shops where the wait pays off, the drinks here don’t. Opening at 6:30 AM also misses the commuter crowd.

What makes it worse is the staff: they’re polite to me, but consistently rude to my husband. It comes across as sexist against male customers. The one saving grace is a single amazing employee—but sadly, they’re the exception, not the rule.

I use to frequent here as in every morning - they lost three customers today :(
suggestions on new spots?

Went in for the first time recently and was stuck between a PSL and the horchata latte. I asked the barista which she preferred and she said the horchata latte was her favorite and it was the last few days to get it bc their summer menu was ending. I went with her suggestion and it was absolutely amazing! One of the best lattes I’ve had. I don’t live in the elmhurst area but I will definitely be back again. The staff was so friendly and the coffee shop was so cute and cozy and had outdoor seating.

amazing matcha, great temp. and ratio of milk to tea

Great coffee. This location was super loud, with people taking work calls loudly and people having loud conversations.

Good coffee. Place has a homey, comfortable feeling. On a Tuesday afternoon there was plenty of seating and was a chill place to meet a friend. Staff was pleasant and service was quick.

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.

Samples of new nitro cold Brew coffee today.

One of the best cups of coffee I have ever had. I ask for something not to sweet and not to plain. What do you have, and he suggested: Pirouette??
