Coffee Shops near Island Lake

“Cute updated play area...“

“The workers there work hard. I was there today and people were giving them problems because of a couple malfunctions that they were trying to fix with out management in the building. It isn’t the worked fault there is no reason to be rude to these workers when they aren’t giving attitude and trying. I saw plenty of rude people while I kept calm and helped them understand hey this is no issue. They went above and beyond still to try and satisfy the customer. Armani was a good worker and so was the sweet short girl forgot her name.“

“Stumbled upon this place after being a bit disappointed with my bubble tea from another place in the area. I loved the energy from the moment I walked in! The coffee smell is just enough to make you crave a blanket and a good book, the staff were friendly and inviting, plus I wasn't disappointed with my iced chai! 10/10 would - and definitely will - return.“

“I just had the lovely experience sitting with a family friend for coffee. I got a lavender bloom and it was by far the best coffee I’ve ever had. I love coffee. It tasted like coffee and the perfect amount of sweet. If you know you know. There were rocking chairs on the porch that were occupied when I arrived but the back seating was intimate and comfy. The walls are lined with local artist exhibits for sale. I have my eyes on one that I plan to purchase when I come back. I look forward to buying more delicious coffee and to see what new Art is displayed. This place gets it. A part of the reemergence if you will. I wish for this place to stay authentic and hope they get just enough business but not too much if you know what I mean. It is a diamond in the rough. It needs to be beloved and protected. Support this local business. May it inspire more like it.“

“I visited Toast and Roast which was recommended by my brother. The atmosphere was awesome and very i inviting, not to mention extremely clean! The food was great, especially the pumpkin cheesecake muffins. They were Light, fresh, moist, and very flavorful. I’d recommend this establishment to anyone and I look forward to my next visit.“

“Love the delicious tea and art support groups at the Other Side Coffee shop!“

“Excellent service with excellent food!!! I bought the $6 meal deal which included my drink, bacon egg cheese bagel (or I could have gotten a croissant) and hashbrown (6). They had another deal so I even got donuts for breakfast tomorrow. It was fresh, flavorful and definitely better than what I normally get. I will be back for sure!!!“

“I LOVE THE AÇAÍ BOWLS FROM HEALTHY ZONE LZ.? Not only are they delicious but the BENEFITS. Not just your average fruit bowls with sugary fruit. I love the low calorie deficit and high protein with no extra crazy charge! It’s amazing ?? been coming here for 3 years! A Local Family Business.“

“I just went there to have a meeting with a coworker and absolutely loved the service and the atmosphere. The empanada was still frozen when they served it to me but the server was so kind and gentle and immediately gave me another one that was well cooked and didn’t charge me for the wait and inconvenience. I call that consideration and good business practice! Will be back again!!“

“Very cute place! I stopped on the way to work and was greeted by a friendly front counter cashier. She suggested some great non-coffee items. I got the Vanilla Rooibos tea and their cheddar bacon spinach biscuit/scone. I will definitely be back for both. Thanks!“

“Love the Boosted Teas!! I try to stop as often as I can and I try to get my friends to try them.“

“Delicious ice cream and the kids cone is the perfect size for my 3 year old!“

“The sweet owner walked across the tracks this morning to give my daughter an avocado egg sandwich before taking the train to Chicago. He heard my daughter wanted one and he was so kind to Bring her one. Btw my daughter enjoyed it on the train! Thank you again for your hospitality!“

“Stopped here for my first time ever by using the Too Good To Go app and was surprised to see all of delicious options they have. I will definitely be going back to try out their salads. I got the Waldorf chicken salad wrap and it was delicious.“

“Daily Projects coffee is by far the best coffee and chai tea I’ve ever had. And I’m not a burger person nor a breakfast eater but I had their DELICIOUS burger this morning (long story none of which has to do with alcohol or otherwise) and it was DELICIOUS!!“

“Had my daughter’s baby shower cake made here. Julie was so easy to work with and gave me great advice. I had several guests who needed gluten free and Julie and her staff were able to make the whole cake gluten free. It was so delicious that my guests thought it was the best they’ve had. Thanks Whisk Bakery!!“

“Cozy place to bring your family or have casual business meetings. Love their drinks !! So much better than Starbucks . All the gals are super friendly too! ✨“

“Great quality french pastries. Excellent service . Highly recommended“

“They have the best Birthday cake that I’ve even had in this area. Very creamy and fresh, not too sweet. The cake was beautiful like a wedding cake, and it was very tasty, lots of strawberries in the layers. It definitely brought more joy to my daughter’s birthday party. Kids and parents all loved this cake. I felt so blessed to find this place before the Bday party. Thanks for bringing good food to this area!“

“A must go-to for coffee/café connissures. The Seventh Heaven latte is the perfect balance of sweet flavors without going overboard on the sugar. I paired my latte with the Amarillo Chipotle sandwich. An absolutely delicious spicy twist on the classic bacon, egg, and cheese. Jesse helped me decide on the order and I'm so glad he did. The staff were kind, professional, and most importantly know what they are doing with their food and drinks. 10/10“

“Awesome customer service and delicious ice cream served with a smile. We tried the peach cobbler and the Mississippi mud slide. YUM! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I have been a regular customer for a long time- the baristas know me by name and know my drink order. Picked up my iced coffee this morning and didn’t realize until I was done drinking my coffee that there was a nice little note on my cup! This definitely made my Monday morning ! It’s the little things 😊“

“Terrific little hidden neighborhood spot on Main, the old 22 right in the middle of town. Service was excellent, clean and comfortable.

Parking: Rear Parking and a back door you don't realize until after the first visit.“

“Me gusta mucho este lugar y lo mejor que esta cerca de donde vivo y muy buen servicio …😊☕️“

“I always enjoy my experience at rusty malts! They have great ice cream and shakes! Staff is always super nice and helpful! 10/10 will always go here!“

“Meet up with friends from last 40 years & did some catching up! It's Sunday morning & a busy place - we went early - got a cozy corner booth & chatted away. Out server (Alana I think) was GREAT!!! Friendly, patient, attentive & offered suggestions. Ordered Sam's Swedish Pancakes & side of eggs & meat. Food was delicious, piping hot & just as ordered. I recommend a visit there - clean place, warm, friendly staff & GREAT food!!!“

“I’ve been coming to this location ever since they opened and I have to say they are the best! The entire staff is so friendly and efficient at what they do. I work so close to them so I am very happy they are there and are awesome at what they do!“

“Worst customer service by employees and managers. Called corporate was hung up on 3 times.
All because they forgot a sandwich.
When speaking to employee and manager both refused to give a name .
Has gotten way better and seems to be all new people now

Parking: Drive thru blocks a personal drive way please be respectful of that“

“I came into this location a few days ago and had the best experience ever. Kristen was helping me at the time. I gave her a lot of drinks to make but she was quick and efficient. She started a conversation with me, smiles, and is very happy with her job. I am so impressed by her and how quick she is. I will continue to come back to this location all the time now because of her. Thank you Kristen for making this experience so great. You deserve the best!“

“You know what you get, consistent product.“

“Our favorite Dunkin’ around! They say all Dunkin’ drinks are the same, but this Dunkin’ is by far the best and they always get it right! It’s also a great way to get the kids out of the house for school quickly!! 😂 🍩“

“Annie was excellent with the Stanley cup redemption! She made it fair and equitable. One cup per household and offered a ticket for their cups so people didn’t wait in the line unnecessarily. She had the store stocked and food ready. Robin at Target worked with Annie to make sure the line moved smoothly! Highly recommended!“

“Went to DD in volo only to realize my wallet is on my counter at home!!!! They were so nice and gave me receipt and said pay later and enjoy your coffee. THANK YOU DD“

“When this location first opened it took over 20 minutes to get a drink and then it was made wrong. I was the only person there so it wasn't a long line issue. I have been there more recently and they are up to speed, making drinks correctly, the interior is always clean and organized, staff is friendly.“

“this location serves up a box of joe for me each Saturday which I bring to my business to serve my own customers.... they are always prompt, friendly and willing to supply a few extra cups knowing that I'll be serving up many cups of coffee each Saturday morning ☕☕☕“

“So I went in for a quick cup of morning brew and to say the least it was bitter and I took it back the beautiful lady I missed her name all I know is she is drop dead gorgeous she fixed it maid me a fresh batch and I am more thankful she maid my morning a delight“

“I went today and this was by far the best experience I’ve had at a Dunkin! The gentlemen working was very kind and worked quickly. He made the best oat milk shaken espresso I’ve had and filled it with a very appropriate amount of ice which I really appreciate (other Dunkins always fill it to the brim with ice, leaving very little room for the actual drink). Highly recommend.“

“Icecream = Smiles here at At DD.“

“Absolutely the best serving Starbucks. Always friendly, my order is always what i ordered and each employee is always professional. THANK YOU Lake in the Hills Starbucks team ! p.s. I sure wish they made pumpkin scones all through the year.“

“First time I’ve been here today and this experience was nothing short of fantastic. The young man at the front counter was informational and helpful and the food was fresh and the chicken is probably my favorite. I’ll probably pass on the slushie next time just because it didn’t taste like alcohol at all.. and they had to get it unfrozen to get me a glass of it… also screams no alcohol. But that’s okay! Overall very very good food!“

“Thank you to our new Starbucks in Mundelein! I have visited this location three times now via the drive through. By far the friendliest and best customer service I have ever received at a Starbucks! Kuddos to your drive through staff for their amazing service with a smile and great energy. This location will be my go to going forward.“

“I got the hot Carmel latte decaf that I can drink and got service with a smile. Unlike Panera next door that told me they couldn't serve me decaf latte anymore. For various reasons I can't drink regular coffee so thank you Starbucks. You rocked it today.“
