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.

Great food & service in a lovely space that would be pleasant to work from if the WiFi were amenable to devices that require connecting to a VPN. “The SSL Certificate contains errors” has been popping up on my work laptop for the past 6 months when I try to connect, and I rarely visit as a result (used to stop in weekly).
Love coming here whenever I'm in Chicago! Great space to study, friendly staff, and great cheese plates! Yum!

This morning, I came to get some coffees and was told very rudely by the gentleman with the dark hair and a beard that I cannot use 100 they did not have change. I then asked for him to get me 4 coffees so I can bring Coffee for my coworkers and he then proceeded to tell me rudely I already told you once we don’t take it So at first, he said they don’t have change for $100 bill and then he changed it to. They don’t take $100 bills very disappointed. Definitely won’t be stopping by here again. This gentleman should not be working in customer service very disappointed and feel very disrespected

Bright, open, comfortable space for people meeting up in pairs, groups, or working solo. Outlets available along walls under bench seating. Two bathrooms divide the front room from the more dim/ "cozier" room in the back, which offers additional seating in the form of larger, wider tables. Acoustics are decent for the size and height of the ceiling /open brick space. Ironically this cafe has a quiet ambience that makes it great for working on a laptop with headphones on without getting distracted by the typical loud, jarring sounds normally heard at smaller or more common cafes. Music is not too distracting or loud, and features a wide range of genres. I think the staff changed it up manually to mix it up every hour or so. It didn't sound too generic or predictable. Also, the staff here are extremely friendly, knowledgeable, sweet, and cheery, and made suggestions to customers while they ordered. I loved my cold brew and Lorraine Croissant which was heated up. The absolutely gorgeous and enviable "living wall" full of real plants ? at the front is an AWESOME use of vertical wall space. It is always great to see businesses using real plants. I also appreciate the subtle stylish additions like the pretty chandeliers and beautiful metal hand-created signage on the other walls. Metal chairs at the tables near the other side of the cafe are not that comfortable after awhile, but not terrible either. Bathrooms are accessible for all needs and there is a high chair near the bar if you need one for a kid. Parking is tricky as the lots in the front and back can fill up quickly at the start of the day/midday.
Wheelchair accessibility: Open space allows for wheelchair accessibility at tables, in bathrooms, and when ordering. Doors do not open automatically though.
Brewpoint Craft Elmhurst is the superior location to it's Founder's Cafe. The interior is massive and has a industrial/modern interior with greenery to lighten the mood.
Their signature drinks are a symphony of spices and ingredients. They offer a blissful relief from life's worries.
On the other hand, their food options leave more to be desired. The cookies, scones, croissant, and other bakery goods compliment the coffee well. Just don't expect to supplement your lunch with them.
Overall, Brewpoint Craft Elmhurst surprised me the brew of their craft. I find myself visiting when I'm in the area, and can't wait to see what seasonal specials they have in store.

Absolutely phenomenal coffees and teas! I have been goin to BrewPoint for over a year and my lattes and matcha are consistently amazing. Very friendly atmosphere and great customer service. Highly recommend this place to anyone that loves great quality!
Great coffee, poped in on a long ride home for a pick-me up. Kinda stuck between industrial and white girl cozy place esthetic. Would love more comfy seating and maybe a slightly lower ceiling?
Parking: No spots right by the door but has some parking adjacent to it.

Great coffee shop, delicious coffee better and a little less expensive than Starbucks. The place itself is big.
