Coquelicot Gallery and Cafe

I found this place while checking HappyCow for what might be in the area. What a great surprise! I stopped in for a snack. I’ll be back for lunch or dinner. I had the vanilla cake. They served it warm with berries. Very good!

Medium/small menu, incredible coffee and the hot chocolate was very rich and amazing. Wraps were light and delicious as well. Well seasoned and good textures.

I recently had the wonderful experience of dining here for the first time since they changed to a 100% vegan menu. My husband and I really enjoyed our beverages, meal and dessert. This is a cozy and beautiful place to meet for coffee/tea or beverage with friends. Full dining offers several options that I look forward to trying next time we return. This trip we had the oat milk fig latte and the BEST hot chocolate along with the 7 spice tofu wrap and vanilla cake for dessert. The owners are lovely and pay careful attention to details in presentation, taste and quality of each dish.

Such a surprise to feel like you are in a European shop in Palatine #Veganuary

Lovely environment and my lunch was really good. The texture of the tofu was excellent in my basil pesto wrap. Had it with a hot chocolate. Wonderful experience. It was a little pricey, but everything was very high quality, so worth it.

I had warmed chocolate cake with chocolate drizzle and cherries! Everything here is vegan, I'm very happy to have found this place.

This restaurant is new, so they get some leeway. The service was slow. The servers were super nice, though. That might just be a byproduct of staff performing both service and food prep. Drinks are fantastic. Dessert is very good, especially the vanilla cake. The food menu is very small. That isn’t a bad thing per se, but there are some items on the menu that weren’t received well and it’s a lot of tofu (on the menu and on your plate). The food highlights are the mango green salad and smoked-spice tofu wrap. This might be the best salad I’ve had in my entire life. The location is a bit out of the way, not to mention it’s in the burbs. I wonder if more Asian items on the menu would attract the meat eaters. Also, I think adding soup to the menu would very beneficial! Updated from previous review on 2024-08-23

I loved the wrap! I loved the blood orange ice cream float! And most importantly I LOVED the chocolate cake!

Hidden gem of a cafe, nice quiet cafe. Limited menu, but so nice

Cute little restaurant and art gallery/shop. Wonderful tofu dishes and vegan drinks.

Great service and food, but a little pricey and lacking variety on the menu.

A lovely hidden treasure! After some delicious coffee my grind and I had a chance to look around at all of the wonderful art, pottery and jewelry pieces. Great ambience!

Coquelicot is an interesting establishment. When you enter you are greeted by soothing music that says (relax) your in a different place ,leave your day behind for a few minutes and enjoy fresh coffee and many other treats in this locally owned business. Peter Pryor

It's beautiful art (more than coffee shop) and coffee. Good options for drink and eat.
Jewelry, design, paint, everything of art. It is amazing the store.

Excellent location. Very good cafe.
