Brewpoint Coffee - Founder's Cafe

I screwed up locations and the employees here were so helpful. Not only that, the coffee was AMAZING! Great local coffee spot:)

I've been to Brewpoint many times. It is a perfect place to meet a business colleague or catch up with a friend. The coffee is fresh, well made and tasty.

Small cafe in elmhurst close to the train station. It was crowded even during a weekday afternoon. Chairs were not very comfortable. Cold air kept coming in every time the door was opened. Didn't feel like a private place to hangout and talk.

Lovely atmosphere and fun people watching. Cappuccino can be inconsistent. Sometimes great, sometimes bubbly. Agree w some comments on friendliness of staff. There was one lady taking orders who was always soo ... but noticed she's trying harder to be nice!🙏😊

Espresso was weak, don't recommend it if youre an Espresso snob. Service could have been better as well

I was literally about to walk inside and order a coffee, but the moment I saw their sign banning lawful concealed carry, I turned around and left. That alone told me everything I needed to know about this place — and unfortunately, the hypocrisy only gets worse from there.

The hypocrisy at this shop is unbelievable. Brewpoint Coffee plasters their windows with self-righteous political messages about “inclusion” and “ending discrimination,” yet they proudly discriminate against one of the most thoroughly vetted, law-abiding groups in the entire state: licensed concealed carriers.

To even qualify for a concealed carry license in Illinois, you must pass extensive background checks, maintain a spotless criminal and mental health record, and complete serious training. These are the kind of responsible, model citizens any business should welcome — yet this shop chooses to target and exclude them while pretending to stand for equality. The double standard is stunning.

It’s disgraceful to watch a business preach moral superiority while openly deciding who is “worthy” of service based on their own biased politics. I refuse to spend a single dollar here, and I encourage anyone who values fairness and consistency to do the same. Starbucks and Dunkin’ are right down the street and, unlike Brewpoint, don’t pretend to champion inclusivity while practicing the exact opposite.

Great coffee!

Really kind staff! Tried a different seasonal drink each morning for a week and every one was incredible. The coquito latte was by far my favorite! Will definitely be back the next time in I’m the area!

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.

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?
