A nice little Coffee shop right in the heart of the Dawtown area. Very quiet and chill. The menu selection can be somewhat overwhelming specially if you're visiting for the first time, but the staff can assist with some great recommendations. The London fog tee latte is my usual when visiting this fine establishment. The food menu also has great selections depending on what you're feeling and the staff is very helpful and very nice. If you're looking for a small quiet place this coffee shop has that.

This place is so good. I stopped going to Starbucks and only go to them now. Before I was prediabetic, I would eat the croque madame and chocolate croissant. They have delicious food and delicious chocolate. Also their Mexican hot chocolate is amazing.

So I book marked this a while ago and unfortunately one more place to thicken my ever changing body. We shared a warm chocolate croissant, dusted with powdered sugar and toasted slivered almonds. It was so delicious. I'm looking at the menu and I definitely have to go come back here and try most of it. They also had a lot of different chocolates upfront. Everything looks fantastic. And what we had was so good. biting into a toasted, almond croissant, dusted with powdered sugar, toasted, slivered, almonds, and filled with chocolate.. I will definitely be back

I am a fan of this place but there is so much more potential! This cafe is within walking distance from the Metra, the food and coffee are very good and surprisingly doesn't feel overpriced but this place needs some series interior design help. The stock of the dry goods are within view for customers, cords from the TV are hanging down and the bins for dirty dishes are located where one would order. There appears to be an underutilized back area (near the rear door) where things are stored that could have an organizer of some sort (this area may be better suited for the large refrigerator in the main area as well). This would be a great work from home or coffee date meet up which I suspect would justify any expense of an outside organizer coming in and offsetting the added revenue. For now I'll continue to take my food for take out.

Delicious coffee, hot chocolate, crepes and omelets in a charming atmosphere. There aren't a lot of tables but it's cozy if you score one. The service is friendly but not super fast. Relax and enjoy!

Great little space, everything on there menu is worth a a try!
When you go to a chocolate cafe, you get the chocolate! It was a colder fall day, so we decided to stop by and get hot chocolates. I got the triple chocolate while my husband got the Parisian chocolate. The triple chocolate hot chocolate had milk, dark and white chocolate in it. It was super creamy and full of flavor. While the Parisian was more intense and straight dark chocolate. It was still super delicious but a bit more bitter than the triple chocolate. Their menu is vast and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful when you ask for suggestions and guidance. All in all I can't wait for my next hot chocolate. :)

European style cafe. Don't have servers. You should order and pick up. Always crowded

On a crisp morning, we started our day at Leonidas Chocolate Cafe, and it set the perfect tone for the day ahead. The freshly baked croissants, velvety hot cocoa, and the delightful assortment of French macarons made for a delectable breakfast. The charming ambiance and the luxurious treats made our morning feel like a delightful, indulgent escape from the daily grind.
