Coffee Shops near Great Lakes

“Pretty decent. Pretty safe with the new safety measures put up now. Menu selection is a bit small compared to others, but a good amount of choices for me. Travis Scott burger with some fries and a water to wash it down is pretty good. Would recommend.“

“The dunkin donut here is pretty good though depending on the time of day your wait time can vary. But when there isn't too much traffic they generally get out your order as fast as possible. They also get your order accurate too. If you ask for extra mocha or extra anything they'll do it (for extra cost) but they won't forget.“

“Alina was wonderful she was extremely knowledgeable and every cup of coffee was so smooth I had the cherry blast and it was super smooth not to sweet perfect balance and for those who don’t like strong coffee it’s a great option. My husband had the Cafe Borgia and omg that was the best espresso I’ve had in a long time super smooth just the right hint of chocolate. The atmosphere was so nice she had games and she’s very friendly to talk to so we felt very welcomed. Alina also offered us pastries to try they were so good we really liked the cinnamon pastry it tasted like a a churro it was so soft moist and delicious 🤤 we also tried the lemon pastry wow it was so good we are not from this area but we are happy we got to meet Alina and try her wonderful coffee 10/10 recommend“

“AMAZING coffee & matcha, served with such warmth & care by the sweetest family-owned shop — A true gem! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I come here because they do pour-overs. Really Good pour-overs. (If they're busy, multi-tasking staff may miss the correcting timing so the extractions are suboptimal and may alter the taste in the negative.) But still a great coffee - I'm nitpicking.

I enjoy this more than the other places in Libertyville because the barista's really know their products - every one I've talked with has been able to discuss each coffee with knowledge that helps me learn. And oh so friendly, nice people who work there.

Pastry choices are limited, so-so in taste, and too sugary for me (donuts, muffins) They could use some nice croissants, chocolate croissants, morning buns, etc. If they partnered with Hewn Bakery it would be perfect. (I will often get coffee to go, and bring my own Hewn to eat outside at the benches.)“

“great coffee! its very cozy“

“The best coffee shop in Highland Park/Deerfield area! Best customer service and perfect atmosphere for work meeting, reading a book or grabbing coffee with a friend!“

“So happy we found this gem of a coffee shop / restaurant while visiting the area! The white mocha I enjoyed was amazing and our breakfasts were fantastic. After talking with the owner, we learned the building is over 100 years old and it was a filling station. They have transformed the building into a very quaint location that is very welcoming! The staff was great and very cheery! We highly recommend It’s All Good!“

“Stopped in for a coffee during my lunch and was very impressed with not only their selection, but with the taste as well! I got the Maple Cardamom and was very good. Highly recommend if in the area!“

“The bread is out of this world. My personal favorite is the seeded. The pastries are also very good. What a treasure.“

“This place CJ‘s coffeehouse is the best donut shop I’ve ever gone to.. Dunkin’ Donuts is pathetic in comparison. their donuts are far more superior. There’s more Dunkin’ Donuts close by me, but I go all the way to Zion for my donuts.. kudos to CJ’s!!!!“

“Their coffee never disappoints. Breakfast tacos for sure. Bakery items are delicious! Always super patient with my order and help with times I can’t decide. My kids love the bakery items, and it’s right next to a playground so you can take your coffee to go and let the kids go play while you sip slowly! Delicious, and very cute storefront.“

“Everytime we come to this mall, this is one of first things we get. We saw a sign saying they had three variety flavors of horchata drinks and we jsut had to give it a try. Our go to is the Cafe horchata but you can get vanilla or chocolate as well if coffee isn't your go too. I've had them all and they are all delicious.“

“Hi, The best donuts anywhere. They are working and baking at 2:00 each morn, so you can have fresh donuts in the morning. Best Chocolate frosting ever; little secret, freshly made. They try hard to please everyone.“

“Always a treat to stop by“

“My inlaws & I had breakfast here recently while we were attending my son's graduation from Navy bootcamp. The food was awesome, the staff very friendly, the prices decent and the Blueberry Wild Child tea SO tasty.“

“I get my work done at Hometown nearly every day, and I just have to give a shoutout to Corey! He is the nicest guy, always going above and beyond to make sure everything is right. No matter what, he makes sure every detail is taken care of and his customer service is unmatched. Best service, atmosphere, and food! Great spot.“

“Stopped in for the first time and will be back again and again! My kids devoured their donuts!! Can’t wait to come back for lunch too! Customer service was amazing too, so friendly and helpful!!“

“My 4 year old son loved it here!!! He was so proud to have designed a donut (which was actually just the cookies and cream option from the menu) but he watched them make it and decorate it and then showed it to everyone he passed. He said they were the BEST donuts he’s ever had! I had the cold brew with sweet cream which was solid.“

“Was at Port Clinton Art Fair, had just gotten Italian ice, and saw these beautiful croissants out of the corner of my eye. I quickly did an about face. The Crème Brûlée croissant 🔥🔥and the Almond Croissant 🥇if you guys already do a Koigin Aman, I need to try it, if you don,t, you should!,Your laminated dough is wonderful & buttery, top notch.“

“Great staff and delicious fresh treats!! 🩷“

“I've been a regular at this Starbucks and it's always a fantastic experience! The staff are super friendly and bring such positive energy every time I visit. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming—perfect for relaxing or getting a bit of work done. Definitely one of my favorite Starbucks locations!“

“5+1?This small out-of-the-way Starbucks (located inside Target) is really a diamond in the rough, if you consider Starbucks a diamond, LOL. They make the store on Grand and Green Bay look pathetic. The young man working behind the counter, his name is Felipe, is extremely articulate and knowledgeable, about Starbucks offerings, unlike the other store. I came in for the Medicine Ball, that is a stress relieving, stomach settling concoction that Starbucks has come up with. It's not on the menu but if you're stressed or just not feeling well, this is the thing to get. See Felipe, he's a nice young man and working his way through school. He is very attentive and always smiling. As a matter of fact I'm going to give them an extra star because he's such an excellent hire for them, he should be in management.??“

“The staff is very friendly and efficient. The coffee is delicious. I just got my usual, a tall latte.

Vegetarian options: Coffee is Vegan!?

Dietary restrictions: I am gluten free.Everything is clearly marked with ingredients. Any questions the staff is happy to answer.

Parking: It's a well maintained Target parking lot.

Kid-friendliness: The staff is kind to all the guests.

Wheelchair accessibility: It's in Target. Totally wheel chair accessible.“

“Morning shift workers help you out in any way you want very nice food quality and drinks

Parking: Two girls in the morning I don't know their names help me make a drink that was can cancel from the menu they did a great job“

“Amazing lattes in a posh environment! Love this place!!!“

“Found my favorite childhood snack — egg waffles 🧇 — at MilkCow cafe near home! Definitely coming back again! Their ice cream was amazing too — super creamy and full of milky goodness 🍦💛“

“I've been here three times in the past year and have been wowed each time. The employees are always nice and accommodating. The food is perfect each time, the bathrooms and restaurant itself are very clean, and the space is welcoming! That's saying a lot from someone who worked in a lot of restaurants over the years and can easily spot issues. Bagels are chewy, thaw nicely after being in my freezer for a bit, and make excellent sandwiches. Thank you for the Windex and cleaning up my water bottle catastrophe ;)“

“Great staff, the bubble tea is a must have. Try it now if you haven’t done so 😊“

“Hands down one of the best breakfast spots I've been to in while. I first visited their Naperville location in 2021 and fell in love with the potatoes and pancakes. There can be a wait but I suggest making reservations or going before 11am. Even if you wait, its totally worth it.“

“Always friendly and fast.. Haven't had a bad experience here.. Peppermint Mocha Frappé...“

“ABSruCKS. & lettin every body know it too.“

“Great staff and friendly atmosphere. Always fun to sit and spin wool on my spinning wheel while carrying on conversations with other patrons curious about what I’m doing.“

“Always perfect coffee. Fresh, never stale. The staff, especially Chello is the best.“

“great customer service !!“

“Nice spot for a meeting with a very special realtor! Me! (Weichert Realtors) Sell Buy Haus (dot com)“

“Love having a Starbucks in Lake Forest. So convenient. Also love some of the workers there. Daniel and Jay to name a couple. I just wish they would get the free refill program correct for gold card members. I get the snarky face from the manager and a couple others when asking for my free refill. They keep telling me I need to buy a regular coffee to get a refill when in fact Starbucks web site says get a free refill regardless of the original beverage.“

“Got the glow bowl and my daughter got a build your own açaí bowl today. THIS GLOW BOWL IS AMAZING!! The dairy free ranch is so tasty!! It’s perfect!!!! 10/10!!!!“

“Dunkin' always delivers a quick and convenient coffee run. Iced coffee is consistently good, and donuts are fresh. Drive-thru lines can get long, but service is usually speedy. Prices are reasonable. A reliable spot for a morning pick-me-up. ?☕️“

“Love this petite Starbucks! They're the only Starbucks I know in the area that still gives you a beautiful ceramic mug when you ask for a cup of tea "for here". That little nod towards reusables says a lot about an establishment's character.There's also tons of natural night as half the building is all floor-to-ceiling windows.What a gem! ?“

“I love It Best Coffee � Thank You Jeff �“

“Love that Dunkin.Donuts in Highland Park good muffins good tea service with a smile“

“Something new in the Mall food court! Staff is so friendly and talkative, love them! They have truly great selection of unordinary pizzas. You have to try ordering from the menu! Ready slices are good, but freshly made mouthwatering pizza is so much better. I tried pear pizza, was very impressive, chef's creation, but my best favorite is vegetarian pizza. Will be back soon. 👌“

“Delicious boba tea! I had the Coconut milk tea with boba and my husband had the mango fruit with boba. This was our first time here! It was busy when we walked in with lines for those wanting to get there bubble / boba tea. There was a great menu of options to choose from and a nice sitting area to relax, and enjoy the drinks. Staff were quick and busy filling in the orders that were coming in. This is located in Chinatown near the Chinatown square. Great spot and delicious boba teas! We will definitely come back when we visit this area again!“

“I went through the drive-thru and was immediately awestruck by the most beaming personality coming through the speaker. I actually smiled as I ordered through the speaker and decided this person was getting a big tip by the time I had finished my order. I regretfully don't recall her name, but she was an older woman who seemed genuinely glad to be there, and that made me glad to be there too. I will undoubtedly be returning to this location whenever the opportunity arises. My beverage was made well and promptly, very enjoyable.“

“This Starbucks location went above and beyond for me the other day. I had been to a different Starbucks location, ordered a non coffee drink, took one sip and knew it had coffee in it, but they denied it so I left and started my drive. Took a few more sips and couldn't take it because I really do not like coffee and really wanted something nice to sip on while I drove so I decided to try again at this Lake Forest location. I explained what happened just to make sure I hadn't accidentally ordered a coffee drink ... they went above and beyond to make sure I had a perfect drink and were super friendly and generous about it. It had been an exhausting week for me and the delicious drink along with the excellent, positive experience at this Waukegan Road Lake Forest Starbucks really made my day!!!“

“Try em all.………………………………….“

“Milk Pillow Bread! I have not tried any of their beverages, but will return here frequently for the exquisite fresh breads and pastries. Red Bean Paste donut, Yuzu and Guava pastries, Honey Cheese Mochi Pancakes, and the Cranberry Cream Cheese are some of my favorites!“

“Nice people fast service. Great locality ample parking .“
