Coffee Shops near Lake Barrington

“This place is brilliant, go inside. They used to hang up my mothers art, I know they choose their displays very intentionally and when I heard my mom's excitement about her photography on display here I knew I had to come. The coffee is great, try anything with lavender if you are looking to switch things up! TIP YOUR BARISTAS THEY MAKE THE WORLD GO ROUND! Love a fan, Viktoria Cowen“

“I'm surprised that I am the first person to review this gas station and convenience store. The convenience store and cafe are really, really nice. If you can't find some type of beverage you like and some type of snack you like here, you won't find it anywhere else. I appreciated the very clean restrooms and that the workers wore masks.“

“I went to Summer Moon Coffee this morning and got a Mocha Milk Latte. It was absolutely delicious. They also gave my dog a pup cup (with a treat!) that he loved. Customer service was very good. I don't live in the area but I can't wait to go back to try something new! Thanks for the great experience :)“

“This cafe has a very pleasant atmosphere with friendly, uplifting staff. The coffee and specialty choices are on par with the franchise cafés. However, I believe that the brew and the specialty flavors are better and have a unique taste. I typically regularly get the amaretto or Irish cream flavoring. I have found that the mocha I get on occasion has a more pleasant flavor than those offered by Panera, SB, or DD.They have a regular crowd and customer base whom I've found pleasurable to interact with when stopping in, though I am not a daily regular. They take time to eventually learn your name when seeing you a few times. It's always inviting at Honey Hill.“

“I wish I was rich, I would eat here every day. Good thing I'm not because I would be eating all of their food. The pancakes ? are great. I also recommend pineapple juice with mango puree. The skillet looked great also and enough for 2. Bacon ? is thick cut but still crunchy. I will be back when my bank account ? recovers.“

“My wife and I went to Garden on Main with my daughter and her finance for a late lunch. I was told by a neighbor to try them out. My daughter and I had the soup of the day. ( Can't remember the name but had egg and sausage ) The soup was recommended by our waitress and it was a great choice !! The food was GREAT and the service was just as good !! We joked with one of the waitress the food taste like someone mom made it. She stated that there are two mom's in the kitchen cooking right now. The food was very flavorful, fresh and a lot of it ! Two meals ,one salad ,two soup's ,two ice tea's, one coke and a beer under $100 :) To top it off, my wife went over to check out the different ice cream. Nice gesture, they gave her two free scoops. Smart :) Looking forward to stopping by in the morning for a nice cup of coffee in the future..“

“My girlfriend and I stop in here any opportunity we get. The food is amazing, the coffee is amazing and the staff is incredibly friendly and patient.I have never had a bad meal here, nor have I had a bad coffee. Please support this business as much as you can. We need more hidden gems like this around Lake County“

“I can't believe this place has been here all this time and I only just found it. Best donuts in the area. If you just like donuts, this will certainly satisfy, but if you're the foodie type, you can tell from the flavors, presentation, and balance that these are made by people with culinary technique. Theyre not just dropping dough into a fryer. Very good and will be back.(anything less than 5 stars is a hater)“

“Ok so first things first this was my first visit..... the Owner is awesome!! The employee that made my samich was awesome as well ! Now for the food... the samich was darn good and filling the pasta salad and tater salad was homemade and you can tell! Reminds me of a typical neighborhood deli in Chicago. The meatballs are a MUST! and are homemade. I suggest everyone swing by and try the great food and if yur new ya get to spin the wheel o stuff for a treat or discount on yur next visit! I will be back for sure! ? I ate the samich too fast so I took a picture of the togo box so if you wanna see the samich get in there and grab s few ?“

“Spunky Dunkers Donuts isn’t just a donut shop; it’s a Palatine staple where every donut is a piece of local treasure. Their donuts are simply the best, bar none! The kids and I have made it our Sunday morning ritual to dive into their delightful treats, and it’s always a blast. Even with a line out the door, the wait is a small price for such big flavors. Do yourself a favor: try the Old Fashion! It’s a game-changer. Spunky Dunkers is the go-to place for anyone seeking donut perfection.“

“Delicious OH my 10/10 definitely recommend we had the cookie monster and the churro bites with strawberries banana nutella and caramel! definitely coming back to try more of these goodies! small place but fresh churros can never go wrong with that!! amazing staff they are fast patient and very efficient check their hours they are closed Wednesdays and Thursdays“

“I was blown away. The people are awesome the atmosphere is amazing. The product selection is amazing. This was easily the nicest coffee shop i have ever been to. You really should make this your morning coffee stop. Starbucks doesn't hold a candle to this place.“

“Had a meeting there. I didn't order anything. The place was great. Nice staff and the drinks I saw carried around looked so good. The presentation was spot on. Bright, cheerful, plenty of space to sit, chit-chat and relax. I hope to go back, get a coffee and a snack very soon.“

“I had an amazing experience at Whisk! I ordered cupcakes for my daughter’s wedding shower and they did an outstanding job! Not only were the cupcakes beautiful -beyond my expectations, but delicious as well! The staff was kind, patient and accommodating.Highly recommended them❤️“

“Elder and Oat provided donuts and coffee for dessert at our wedding at the BRIX and the spread of donuts were not only so beautiful but so delicious! We had no leftovers with even ordering enough for the size of our wedding because people couldn’t get enough! We highly recommend using them as your dessert vendor for your wedding!“

“We are so glad that we stopped by this hidden gem small family own business. Although the store display look kind of empty, what they have are very good. We had the BBQ pork bun (very good), 3 kind of Mille crepe cake (strawberry, rainbow and coffee, all are delicious), mini cookies (also delicious). We also had brown sugar bubble tea and taro sago coconut milk drink (soo good). If you order $30 or more, you get a free Mille crepe cake. Plus, the lady owner is very friendly. We are so happy to find this Asian bakery/dessert place in the Barrington area. We will come back for sure.“

“Beautiful & delicious gem in Downtown Algonquin.This is truly one of the BEST ice cream I have ever had. The atmosphere is nice. There is a little stage with instruments. If you are a musician the owner will let you play. There is a patio too if you prefer to sit outside. The service was very welcoming and polite. I will definitely be back for more ice cream!We had the non dairy- blueberry and also the Cookies and cream, both were fantastic!“

“My husband and I recently discovered Koffee Kup, and it has quickly become our preferred breakfast spot. The warm and inviting atmosphere, coupled with delicious food, sets it apart from the rest. The staff's genuine kindness makes every visit feel like you are right at home. In an era where charming and cozy cafes are hard to find, Koffee Kup stands out as a delightful gem. We're big fans and look forward to all of our future visits to this "home away from home!"“

“Neighbor family here and we’ve been multiple times during the soft opening and have loved it! My son and I love the brown sugar tea. And my little one can’t get enough of the donuts. They’re not your typical donut so don’t expect that. They’re sooo much better. They are a bit pricy but that’s expected: donuts are hand rolled! Totally plan on returning multiple times! Great addition to our neighborhood!“

“This is the absolute best Boba shop I have ever been to. These treats are delicious, well-priced, and a wonderful environment. My favorite drink I would recommend to everyone would be would be the mango drink with popping Boba. An absolutely delicious combo! This is a great place to study, or have a work meeting. It's quiet calm and very extremely beautiful with nice decor and interior design.“

“I've visited this place a couple of times now, and it's become a favorite spot close to my house! The atmosphere is welcoming and cozy, perfect for relaxing or catching up with friends. I particularly enjoyed the almond croissant--it was delicious! The beet revival was also refreshing and a unique twist. The staff provided excellent service, making the experience even more enjoyable.“

“If I can give this bakery 10 stars I would. We ordered two birthday cakes/pastries here for my daughter's birthday. My sister in law loves ordering here for her party and that was when I tried their cakes and oh my goodness, It was one of the best cake I have ever had. Its a little pricey but Its so worth it. My whole family enjoyed it when I served the cake for my daughter's birthday. I will definitely be back. Highly recommend this bakery for quality and taste.“

“It's good food at decent prices and no pretentiousness. Everyone I spoke to was friendly, I never had an empty coffee cup, and the portions were well sized.I got the chicken and waffles, and it was delicious, and the side of bacon I ordered was the perfect level of crispy.If I may be so cheesy, the best way I can think of to describe here is like eating at grandma's:Is it the prettiest, best food I've ever had in my life? No.Do I feel warm and comfortable and maybe just slightly too full when I leave, knowing that I cant wait to come back again? Absolutely.“

“I cannot wait to go in person and eat. I was craving Pho and this was among the top I’ve had.I ordered the Pho Ga, we also had the shrimp and egg rolls.The Pho Ga chicken was so good my children were stealing it.Can’t wait to dine-in and try more of their great food.Yes, they are cash only, and yes, it is worth it. I would rather have delicious, affordable Pho than wait for a price hiked, GrubHub delivery of cold, mediocre Pho.“

“My daughter recommended Eastside Cafe to me. I stopped in on her recommendation and was pleasantly surprised, not only by the deliciousness of the food, but also the pleasant atmosphere. I am now a frequent visitor and I cannot say enough about how wonderful this place is! Highly recommend!!“

“Yummy & healthy acai bowls & cute catered seasonal menu items to choose from! Always a friendly face willing to explain the options whenever I stop in. Love following them on all their socials to know when new things drop. Would def recommend to a friend looking for healthy alternatives in their area!“

“I absolutely adore this place.Vas & Stephanie often greet me and make me feel right at home.I’ve been a regular for several months.They remember my favorite drink and craft it with a smile.They are always authentic and joyful and spread amazing energy.I genuinely feel renewed after visiting.A true gem.? ☕️“

“Southern Belle's is a really good restaurant. The service is top-notch. The food is cooked fresh. The Southern Belles skillet is by far my favorite breakfast dish. My wife enjoys the Pesto Egg Benedict. Super fresh and yummy. Also the Pancakes are huge, buttery and the house syrup is excellent. Their mixed drinks, brewed drinks and mimosa's are pretty great and well worth it. I had the Chi Tea ice latte and it was fantastic. The price is good.My wife and I have enjoyed Brunch Cafe and Maple n Syrup. But Southern Belle's is by far our favorite place for breakfast. We highly recommend it and like we said the service is excellent. Everyone is so welcoming and so nice which results in outstanding service and Great Food!Well worth the money and your time.Thank you Southern Belle's.We've had multiple great experiences and enjoy your food very much ?“

“Such a hidden gem in the Bellworks building. Went around lunchtime, ordered a lavender latte and grilled cheese w/tomato soup that hit the spot on a gloomy fall day. It was also fun to play a round of skee ball with my husband while waiting for our order. We both said we want to go back for happy hour/trivia night. If you are in the area give this place a try!“

“Analyse is the best! She does the best latte art and really knows how to make a matcha! Would 12 out 10 recommend sitting in the cafe with your drink of choice. The atmosphere is so warm and welcoming. The other mangers and baristas are also always great at their job!Vegetarian options: The vegicado is so yummy. You swap out any meat for just eggs as well! They are all great! The pastries are all so delicious!Dietary restrictions: They have great gluten sweet treats and offer gluten free bread for the sandwich’s!Wheelchair accessibility: No steps leading to the door. Easy to navigate with access to tables that are accessible.“

“Absolutely love the smoothie bowls & smoothies. Love they offer kids sizes got my littles. Was a little disappointed as I learned I hadn’t been receiving points for the last 5+ visits since I was advised my staff it was already added. Owner explained today you need to add it at time of payment ?. Wish loyalty program was based on items too. Spent almost 50 today and only 1 punch.“

“Conscious Cup delivers on all fronts. From the moment you walk in the door, you are pleasantly and intentionally greeted. The baked goods are delicious and they have a wonderful selection of freshly roasted beans for all tastes. I grabbed a pour over when I was here last, and it was delicious and perfectly balanced! Thank you, Conscious Cup!“

“This is my go to Dunkin! They make my iced latte so perfect and I have never received a watered down drink here. I pass many Dunkin’s on my way to work and still choose to go out a little bit of a way just to stop here. These ladies know what they are doing and they always have a smile on their face.“

“Rob is the best at what he does. Other bike shops call him when they need help. A Mechanics Mechanic so to speak. I bought internet bikes and attempted putting them together but they just weren't right. I called Rob, he told me to bring them in but that hes at least 2 weeks out. It took longer than that but he's super busy and feel it's worth the piece of mind that an actual expert is building my Bike. Price tag is $60 less than Main St bikes. When I picked them up Leah went above and beyond in helping me secure them to my car. They are the best! but know Rob is busy with professional cycling teams and he'll get to it when he can. He even put on a connector for my daughter's bike trailer. If your looking for the bike expert go here. Worth the wait!“

“Super cute coffee shop! Their menu is extensive and includes so many different things, including breakfast. Their bakery is huge and has a ton of baked goods, from muffins to scones and cookies.I got their Baja beef labretti with some veggies and hummus, which was super yummy. Their chai latte is also delicious.It does get quite crowded. I went on a Wednesday at lunch time and the line was through the door. I'd recommend going earlier or around 1-2pm to skip the rush.“

“Their Latte is as good as anywhere… and the cinnamon roll was a wonderful added bonus.If you appreciate high quality coffee, they will not disappoint. *The Cortadito & several others on their board looked really intriguing.** Five of five stars!“

“Corrected review. Separate location got selected.This Starbucks location is great. I have always been pleased with the outcome of my orders.The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. They greet every customer right away and they prepare your order quickly. I look forward to my next visit.Expect your coffee to be handed to you exactly the way you ordered it with a thank you and a smile.The only slight trouble with this shop is getting in and out of the parking lot. Some tight corners get rough when they are busy.“

“First and foremost huge shoutout to Chris and Victoria! The dragonfruit mango was a great selection, Thanks Victoria! Chris I appreciate the laughter this morning. It was a great start to my day! Hope you guys retain great employees like them who interact and make good recommendations to your customers!“

“Morning team is definitely the " A TEAM "Just about Every morning, my husband gets me a LG hot coffee with Oatmilk and Vanilla. It's always delicious and perfect.As an oatmilk drinker, it tastes WAY better if you shake the oatmilk before you pour it ?Thanks for being Awesome!!!!!“

“I've started coming to this location back in May/June and have NEVER had a bad experience or anything to even complain about. ALL the employees are super friendly! One of them even knows my normal drink now! But wanted to write this because I just went in (10/1/21 4:30pm) and the 2 gentlemen working helped me figure out what I wanted! I've never had actually coffee at Starbucks (I normally get Frappuccino's or refreshers) and they helped me pick a coffee that I absolutely LOVE! Wish I caught their names they were awesome and best service I've had anywhere recently!“
