Ive been in here several times now itâs a great stop on a long walk to the library or park with my kid. Every time weâve been in itâs been super busy, more than 10 customers in an out of this small frankly cramped cafe(I add this to give possible context to baristas attitude later on) The first two times I went in my orders were wrong, the first time the barista caught it before even handing it to me and fixed it, the second time I apologized and let them know it was wrong, this time the barista was visibly annoyed and even though the drink I ordered was less expensive than the one they gave me she didnât offer to fix her mistake(I didnât realize until after looking at the receipt that they charged me for the wrong drink). None of this would have been a big deal if it werenât for her attitude towards me but it really put me off to the cafe when both times going in I have issues with my order, and one of those times I was made to feel bad about it and overcharged. Well Iâm writing this review and giving them 4stars because Iâve since been back 3more times with no issues and really tasty food and drinks, so theyâve won me over at least a little bit.

It's a cute little cafe. The staff is extremely friendly. But there are no prices listed. I know I'm a lowly carpenter working in a rich neighborhood but geeze. Order the oatmeal special and it had no texture. You could have drank it with a straw. Holiday Inn has better two-day old oatmeal.

Bought a Jenniper Salad today. Over $10 for 95% lettuce / greens (yes I get itâs a salad) but very poor value for money. Think I will stick to Whole Goods Salad Bar going forward.
08/01/25 Further to above I felt had to add and compliment the Manager for the way she handled my issue. Outstanding service and they could not have done more to rectify the situation. Thank you.

Honestly, the food is good but I usually get the Spa Salad and itâs nice. However, today I ordered a BLT and what a mistake. How can you justify charging any money for a BLT, which is essentially lots of lettuce bread and tomato, with the occasional bacon bite.
My review is not a negative on Three Tarts as whole, itâs just a fair warning â ď¸. DONâT GET THE BLT.
Stepping into Three Tarts Bakery & Cafe in Northbrook is, quite simply, a delight for the sensesâa true testament to the art of refined baking. The moment you enter, youâre greeted by the warm, inviting aroma of freshly baked pastries and the soft hum of a well-run kitchen. The display cases are a visual feast: rows of elegant tarts, perfectly golden croissants, and cakes that look almost too beautiful to eat (but trust me, you should).
The attention to detail here is impeccable. Each pastry is crafted with care, from the flaky, buttery layers of the morning danishes to the delicate balance of flavors in the lemon tart. The coffee is rich and robust, the perfect complement to a leisurely breakfast or an afternoon treat.
What truly sets Three Tarts apart is their commitment to quality and hospitality. The staff is knowledgeable and genuinely enthusiastic about their offerings, always ready with a thoughtful suggestion or a warm smile. Whether youâre picking up a box of assorted cookies for a gathering or settling in for a cozy lunch, every visit feels special.
In short, Three Tarts Bakery & Cafe is a charming gem in Northbrookâa place where classic technique meets creative flair. Itâs simply wonderful, and absolutely worth a visit.

A sweet little place with an excellent tomato basil soup and grilled cheese combo. The sweets look amazing but Iâd come back for the lunch anytime.

Known for their exquisite cakes... But also an excellent spot for a simple coffee and sweet roll! Their buttercream frostings are the real deal, their ganache and fillings are heavenly. Cake decorating as you can see is one of a kind extraordinary for the area... if you want a breathtaking special occasion cake, Three Tarts is the place to go! ps, because of the over the top richness of their ingredients, even the smallest cake serves at the top end of its size...
