This place is awesome! Enjoyable and comfy atmosphere, excellent and friendly service, and delicious drinks. The Cookie Butter Chai iced coffee was so good. I would highly recommend stopping in.

My favorite AREA coffee shop! We’re right next door and I have my staff reviews here every quarter. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming, every drink is so yummy, and it’s a very family-feel atmosphere. Absolutely love this place!

Dirty and the coffee was not good

Stellar coffee! It can get busy, especially on farmer's market mornings, but well worth the wait. They have a great atmosphere and plenty of seating. Staff are always nice and accommodating.

Very homey vibe, really nice place to sit and chat. Workers behind counter and owner were very friendly and helpful on the Saturday morning that I went. Prices are very reasonable; the iced coffee I got (cookie doughy latte) is better than a lot of local lake county shops. I was disappointed in the cheese and spinach egg bake though, it seemed to be sitting in a pool of liquid was slightly cold in the middle. Overall all though, really sweet place

This is by far the BEST coffee shop we've been to. Staff has ALWAYS been so nice and knowledgeable about my special requests. The atmosphere is so welcoming, and their prices are very reasonable. We drive a ways to get here every Sunday, but we don't regret it ever! # bestcoffeeever!
Tried for the first time today. So good! I got the Honey Bee Latte and my boyfriend got a London Fog. Will be back! ☕️

Great local coffee shop serving local roaster's blends along with fantastic local bakery items. Extremely friendly and makes you feel like your having coffee across the table at home. A must stop when in the Mundelein area.

Nice friendly people are serving, and the people going there are too. They have guitars on the wall, if you want to play, and a record player and albums if you want to listen to some oldies. Fun flavored coffee options thar change a little with the seasons.
Kid-friendliness: There is a little park area next to the building with artificial grass and objects to climb on. Seating out there too.
Great coffee shop to meet up with friends with or without kids. This neighborhood coffee shop has the most outdoor seating I've ever seen for a coffee shop. During COVID, the village of Mundelein closed a part of the street right in front of this place for outdoor seating and has kept it closed since. The village also opened a little park right next door with play elements for little kids alongside a beautiful mural. Kitty corner is a village parking lot. There is a stage in the street for occasional entertainment. Inside, they offer a large selection of baked goods from several locally respected bakeries as well as occasional ice cream (looked like they had capacity for 6-8 flavors to hand scoop).
Parking: Free village parking lot is kitty corner from here as well as free street parking. Plenty very close by unless there is an event.
Kid-friendliness: Small village park with a few little kid play elements located right next door. Lots of treat options and drinks available as well as occasional ice cream.
Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs, seems should be fine. Indoors has lots of seating, but might make it difficult to wheel through if aisle ways aren't kept open from seated guests.
