Coffee Shops near Johnsburg

“7Nov2025 6:33pm Fantastic duo. Jaqueline ( barista) and her tall-male coworker.

This matcha doesn't just rival starbucks, it beats it. The munchkins we're still fresh and not stale.

As I stood there waiting for my drink, they were cleaning the inside of the display case.

Morning uber-eats orders are always fresh and consistent with all sandwiches and egg bites.

Definitely highly recommend this hidden gem.

Access to this location is very easy and has plenty of parking as well as seating inside at the stools.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I absolutely LOVE the Lakemoor Starbucks!

I used to avoid Starbucks because I thought it was too pricey — but after receiving a gift card and giving it a try, I was instantly HOOKED. Now, I regularly order ahead using the Starbucks app and pick up, either in-store or through the drive-thru, from this location. Every single visit has been a pleasure. The staff are always friendly, upbeat, and genuinely welcoming — and my order is always ready and accurate. That consistency keeps me coming back.

Here are just a few of the menu items I’ve tried and loved from this location:

🥚🥔 Potato, Cheddar & Chive Bakes
Golden and crispy on the outside, soft and savory on the inside — these are the perfect comfort-food bites. The blend of Yukon Gold potatoes, aged cheddar, and fresh chives blended with cage-free eggs and baked to golden perfection makes each bite rich, cheesy, and satisfying. It’s impossible to stop at just one — which is fine, because you get two!

🥚🥬Spinach, Feta & Egg White Wrap
Light yet full of flavor, this wrap really wraps you in goodness. Fluffy cage-free egg whites, vibrant baby spinach, and crumbles of tangy feta cheese, come together in a warm whole wheat wrap that is lightly grilled to crispy perfection. The feta adds a creamy, salty punch that plays perfectly against the freshness of the spinach, while the wrap itself has a toasty, nutty flavor. It's a wholesome, protein-packed option that feels indulgent — perfect fuel for whatever your day holds.

🥚🌿 Egg, Pesto & Mozzarella Sandwich
The basil pesto is the star here! Paired with creamy mozzarella and fluffy cage-free eggs on a toasted artisan ciabatta roll, this sandwich is savory and flavorful without being too heavy. It’s my go-to morning pick-me-up.

🧀 Crispy Grilled Cheese on Sourdough
Pure comfort food. Thick slices of sourdough are topped with Parmesan butter and toasted until golden and crunchy on the outside. That comes together with the gooey melted white cheddar and mozzarella inside so that every bite is a balance of crispy edges, buttery richness, and melty, cheesy satisfaction. It's nostalgic and delicious.

🍅🌿 Mozzarella & Tomato on Focaccia
Soft, creamy slices of fresh mozzarella, juicy, vine-ripened tomatoes, and fragrant, herby, basil pesto — all layered on herbed focaccia. It’s like a cozy Italian café experience, tucked into a handheld delight—warm and satisfying.

🐉 Starbucks Dragon Drink
The delicious Dragon Drink with mango, dragonfruit, and creamy coconut milk tastes exotic, fruity, and refreshing, with just the right amount of bold. Plus, the bits of real dragonfruit make every sip fun and flavorful.

🍓 Starbucks Pink Drink
This isn't just a drink — it’s a beautiful sip of summer in a cup. The Pink Drink blends creamy coconut milk with the sweet-tart refreshment of strawberry açaí, swirled together with real strawberry slices for a burst of fruit in every sip. It's cool, light, refreshing, and impossible to put down.

The Lakemoor Starbucks has become one of my favorite places to grab a quick breakfast, brunch, lunch, or refreshing drink. The service is always excellent, the food consistently fresh and tasty, and the whole experience is just easy and enjoyable.

Highly recommend — 5 stars all the way!“

“What can I say about dunkin' donuts there's one on every corner now and go figure the coffee is not as good as it used to be I don't know why the taste of coffee went down I don't know why the price went up but everything in life goes up in Illinois bad politics and bad politicians“

“I love this Starbucks!!!! There are three, Jacob, Hannah, and a tall dark haired guy with glasses that are super friendly and always in a great mood! They ALWAYS make my coffee to perfection. I stopped going to the mchenry location because they could never make my coffee right :( thank you for hiring such awesome people!“

“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!“

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

“They roast to order & you choose the level of roast. Wish they wouldn't charge so much for shipping. but it's still great coffee. 🤤🤤🤤🤤“

“Garrett kelly and Lindsey great people know my order just by my car love them and this location ❤❤“

“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“

“They are so friendly! They always know what I am trying to order by my description when I can't remember the name of what I had somewhere else. Also, they add on the little things I ask for, extra carmel topper or whip, without up charge. This Starbucks is by far been worth driving to than any other on surrounding areas. They don't skip on the taste, NO watering down like other ones I been to! Very happy! ?“

“I would like to say I've never been inside this location but I do frequent the drive thru and the employees have always been cheerful and friendly. Being an Iced Pumpkin Latte girl I must say they make the Best at this location. I've been to other Starbucks but don't compare!! Perfect. Keep up the good work!“
