“This place just reopened under new ownership. It's great: -Open till 7pm -Nice, bright interior -Good food. Menu is big with lots of items on the menu (full meals – not just pastries and hot drinks) -I had the egg-and-hash-brown breakfast burrito with side salad and a coffee which was nice and strong, and which they refilled for free while I was sitting and working at a table in the back Note: They're going to sell $25 memberships that get you unlimited coffee. I'll buy one of these since I already spend much more than $25/month on coffee at cafes in town (I know, I know...)”

“Some of the best pastries I have ever had! I have been there several times now and plan to keep going. Service has always been quick and efficient. Staff is polite, cafe is kept very clean, there is a little play area for kids, and they even have Mahjong tables you can rent for free! I plan to play Hong Kong style with some friends in September. I am so grateful for this cafe.”

“I'll give them 4 stars, because they don't have espresso like a normal coffee shop. Some of the drinks are good, they have a mint one that I feel is ok. I think it was called the mint mojito. The service is generally fast, people are helpful. Answers my questions, etc.”

“If you’re looking for a local spot that truly goes above and beyond, I can’t recommend Glenview Grind enough. We’ve used them for teacher gift cards every year, and it’s become one of our favorite traditions—such an easy and appreciated gift. This year, we also had them cater breakfast for Teacher Appreciation Week, and they absolutely exceeded expectations. The entire process—from ordering to pickup—was seamless. Their team was incredibly organized, friendly, and genuinely helpful every step of the way. They even assisted with loading everything up, which made a huge difference during a busy morning. The food was fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented, and the customer service truly stood out. You can tell they care about their customers and take pride in what they do. Highly, highly recommend supporting this wonderful local business”

Highly recommend Original Greenbay Cafe!”

“I wanted to take a moment to recognize Carla for her incredible customer service. I had placed a pickup order for my son, but for some reason the order hadn’t come through. I was frazzled, and my son was having a rough moment. Carla was patient and reassuring. She immediately took care of the situation without making me feel like I was a bother at all, and managed to calm me down in the process. She went above and beyond when I really needed a little kindness. I’m so grateful for how she handled the situation.Thank you again, Carla!”

The service was lovely and the atmosphere was so cozy and welcoming. Clean and near the lake. Left with some pumpkin spice cream cheese pastries. Very content. Will come back!!!”

“This place was great. Easy parking (during a wee day), friendly and patient staff, excellent Ube muffin. (I ate so fast I didn’t take a picture). I got a Malibu smoothie. It was ok, seemed like there was a good bit of ice in it. I also got a Skinny Genes juice. It was WONDERFUL!!! Looks like the company is changing their name to Gimme Cafe as of July 6th 2026 on their website. Updated from previous review on 2026-07-06”

“I've been going to this location since it opened. I was very disappointed to find out that 2 of my favorite people are not going to be there. To say that the place was not clean and the customer service is poor is like saying the Pope is Jewish. Whomever made this decision made a very poor decision. Trish has a wonderful personalty and is very attentive. When it comes to doing her job there is no one better. Scott is very intuned with what's going on and is the perfect choice for someone to run that place. The person who made that horrible review was not a nice person. She would literally ignore me when I would go in there. I stopped going when she was there because she was a mean and petty person. She drove away business. I really will have to think whether I want to frequent your stores anymore. It's the people that are there that make me want to go there.”

“I was pleasantly surprised by how delicious my meal was! I wish I had snapped a photo of what I ordered—the sesame chicken salad was arranged beautifully and bursting with color. It also had way more flavor than I was expecting. I also found the service to be exceptional and the workers were extremely kind. They went out of their way to be friendly and accommodating. Unfortunately, I forgot to ask for their names but to whoever was working around 12:30 pm on August 24th: you were so kind and friendly, thank you!!! All in all, what a delightful surprise. I didn't expect anything extraordinary (this is a furniture store after all) but I left very impressed, pleased with my meal, and feeling full.”

“Just talked with the new manager Tim on the phone about a DoorDash issue, what an Angel of a man. First off wasn’t their problem to deal with I was just calling to notify them about what happened and he still took it upon himself to establish all blame and attempt to double rectify on his end as well. (The issue was very minimal and truly didn’t matter) anyways Tim you rock, A+ human being”

“I’m not usually one to write reviews, but the staff here at Starlite Cafe is absolutely lovely. Every time I walk in for lunch I am greeted with a warm smile, a sense of community, and most importantly the smell of their buffalo chicken wrap. The staff is so friendly and service + food quality is that of a 3 star Michelin restaurant. Every day I ask for extra pickles and am given an absolute boat load. I couldn’t ask for a better restaurant to have in my office. I love the Starlite Cafe.”
