“As soon as you finish reading this, you need to get the “Funky Hippie.” I have been a long time customer, and my beverage of choice is the “Dirty Hippie.” It combines cold brew, matcha, hemp milk, and lavender syrup. However, I came in on July 30th, 2026, only to notice that their summer menu was in full swing. On the menu there was a “Funky Monkey” available. Enticing for sure, but how could I forfeit the opportunity to once again indulge in the “Dirty Hippie.” I mulled my options, verbalizing this dilemma with my bestest friend and the barista on staff. She noted that the banana syrup, exclusive to the “Funky Monkey,” could be added to the “Dirty Hippie.” I knew what had to be done. It was in that moment the “Funky Hippie” was born. My only regret is that I drank all of mine. Perhaps what we want most is what we had and lost. Go to Tala. Experience the “Funky Hippie.” You might ask why I would be willing to share this secret recipe with you all. It is my mission to spread that which is good in this world. All I ask in return is for you to propagate this message. As written in The Republic, “there will be no injustice in compelling our philosophers to have a care and providence of others.” Go forth and spread joy.“

“We’ve visited many times and every time is a good experience. We love to go and let our daughter pick out a cookie as they have many fun characters to choose from. Today they offered free any size drinks for Mom’s on Mother’s Day. How wonderful, what a treat! Thank you 🩷“

“This place CJ‘s coffeehouse is the best donut shop I’ve ever gone to.. Dunkin’ Donuts is pathetic in comparison. their donuts are far more superior. There’s more Dunkin’ Donuts close by me, but I go all the way to Zion for my donuts.. kudos to CJ’s!!!!“

“Such a cozy and welcoming local spot! 😊🍽️ The food is really tasty, and there’s a nice variety of options to choose from. I especially enjoyed the selection of fresh salads, delicious sandwiches, and tempting sweet treats. 🥗🥪🍰 A great little place to stop by for a satisfying meal or something sweet. Definitely worth checking out! ✨👍“
“Stopped in for the first time and will be back again and again! My kids devoured their donuts!! Can’t wait to come back for lunch too! Customer service was amazing too, so friendly and helpful!!“

“CJ:
I stopped in for a simple black coffee once and it was great. It is very modern on the inside and the coffee is expensive for what I got, but good staff and short wait time. The study area has a good view of the road so you can take a short break from your work and enjoy the atmosphere.“

“Gloria Jean’s is by far my favorite coffee chain, even favorite overall in the local area. I’m incredibly happy they’re at Vernon Hills and how consistent their coffee is! Also note, they open at 10am, not 11am - somehow Google Maps is not accepting my update to business hours.“

“Frank was super accommodating at the last minute for a corporate workshop we hosted. The set-up he provided was beautifully organized for presentation to our guests. Everyone raved about the great, "local" AREA Coffee. It was delicious and piping hot. A new go-to for us; thanks, Frank!“

“Love having a Starbucks in Lake Forest. So convenient. Also love some of the workers there. Daniel and Jay to name a couple. I just wish they would get the free refill program correct for gold card members. I get the snarky face from the manager and a couple others when asking for my free refill. They keep telling me I need to buy a regular coffee to get a refill when in fact Starbucks web site says get a free refill regardless of the original beverage.“
“I stop here a couple times a week. I order whatever seasonal cold brew they have at that time, and I’ve noticed some inconsistency in the quality of the drink, entirely depending on who’s working that specific day.
Some days, it’s literally the best coffee I’ve ever had in my life. Other days, it tastes like coffee that sat in melted ice, then poured over more ice and handed out the window. For the price, consistency should be 🔒.
Otherwise, this place is amazing. Great staff, extremely quick and don’t have you sitting for 20 minutes like a Starbucks. I also enjoy the larger sizes most places don’t offer! Flavor concepts for the drinks are always great, too!
Never had food here so I can’t comment on the food, but it does look good!“

“My 4 year old son loved it here!!! He was so proud to have designed a donut (which was actually just the cookies and cream option from the menu) but he watched them make it and decorate it and then showed it to everyone he passed. He said they were the BEST donuts he’s ever had! I had the cold brew with sweet cream which was solid.“

“Hi, The best donuts anywhere. They are working and baking at 2:00 each morn, so you can have fresh donuts in the morning. Best Chocolate frosting ever; little secret, freshly made. They try hard to please everyone.“

“We love coming to the Hometown coffee juice. I have been to I believe every location now.Vlid, gives great service and I especially like the iced oat latte with a combination of different other ingredients. I also taught in Glencoe and enjoy going there The owners Julie and Lou Rubin do a great job!

“The food and the drinks were amazing and the server was super friendly and nice. However I did notice when we were given our drinks and food we didn’t get plates or cups like everyone else? I’m assuming there was a misunderstanding but it felt as if we were being singled out. Other then that it was Great.“

“Delicious boba tea! I had the Coconut milk tea with boba and my husband had the mango fruit with boba. This was our first time here! It was busy when we walked in with lines for those wanting to get there bubble / boba tea. There was a great menu of options to choose from and a nice sitting area to relax, and enjoy the drinks. Staff were quick and busy filling in the orders that were coming in. This is located in Chinatown near the Chinatown square. Great spot and delicious boba teas! We will definitely come back when we visit this area again!“

“I want to give a special shoutout to Laura! I came today and explained an issue yesterday and although I was understandably upset, I didn’t make a huge fuss about it because I visit this location often. I explained the situation to Laura, and she took it upon herself to make sure the issue was rectified. What I really appreciate is that she went out of her way to make things right even though she wasn’t even working at the time the issue happened. That really showed me that she genuinely cared about my experience as a customer. Things happen, but it’s how a business handles the situation that matters, and I truly appreciate Laura for stepping up and making it right. 💕“

“I've been here three times in the past year and have been wowed each time. The employees are always nice and accommodating. The food is perfect each time, the bathrooms and restaurant itself are very clean, and the space is welcoming! That's saying a lot from someone who worked in a lot of restaurants over the years and can easily spot issues. Bagels are chewy, thaw nicely after being in my freezer for a bit, and make excellent sandwiches. Thank you for the Windex and cleaning up my water bottle catastrophe ;)“
“The staff is very friendly and efficient. The coffee is delicious. I just got my usual, a tall latte.
Vegetarian options: Coffee is Vegan!?
Dietary restrictions: I am gluten free.Everything is clearly marked with ingredients. Any questions the staff is happy to answer.
Parking: It's a well maintained Target parking lot.
Kid-friendliness: The staff is kind to all the guests.
Wheelchair accessibility: It's in Target. Totally wheel chair accessible.“

“This location is AMAZING. I had ordered from DoorDash, they accidentally made my order wrong, to apologize they offered my order for free to fix, when I declined they gave me a few free donuts. Such a small gesture and definitely did NOT expect it but their kindness did not go unnoticed. Extremely kind staff worker I talked to on the phone. Good job Dunkin!“

“What a positive experience I had at the Lake Bluff Starbucks. I went for a 30 minute coffee to check my emails, and was so pleasantly surprised when the barista asked if I wanted a ceramic mug for my coffee. She even offered to bring it to my table. When she brought it, she mentioned they offer a free refill. Then, another barista came around with a free sample of one of their ice coffees. What a very pleasant experience. Thank you, Starbucks!“

“5+1?This small out-of-the-way Starbucks (located inside Target) is really a diamond in the rough, if you consider Starbucks a diamond, LOL. They make the store on Grand and Green Bay look pathetic. The young man working behind the counter, his name is Felipe, is extremely articulate and knowledgeable, about Starbucks offerings, unlike the other store. I came in for the Medicine Ball, that is a stress relieving, stomach settling concoction that Starbucks has come up with. It's not on the menu but if you're stressed or just not feeling well, this is the thing to get. See Felipe, he's a nice young man and working his way through school. He is very attentive and always smiling. As a matter of fact I'm going to give them an extra star because he's such an excellent hire for them, he should be in management.??“
“Not normally a big Starbucks fan, but just had one of the best experiences at a Starbucks ever. I got an Iced Pumpkin Chai and a Spinach, Feta and Egg white wrap. The delicious food was the least wonderful part of my experience. The baristas were all exceptionally kind and generous, bringing us iced water without asking and being very welcoming to us. I stayed there for a bit to work and wait for a different appointment, and it was the exact environment I needed to start my day off well!“

“Something new in the Mall food court! Staff is so friendly and talkative, love them! They have truly great selection of unordinary pizzas. You have to try ordering from the menu! Ready slices are good, but freshly made mouthwatering pizza is so much better. I tried pear pizza, was very impressive, chef's creation, but my best favorite is vegetarian pizza. Will be back soon. 👌“
“Thank you to our new Starbucks in Mundelein! I have visited this location three times now via the drive through. By far the friendliest and best customer service I have ever received at a Starbucks! Kuddos to your drive through staff for their amazing service with a smile and great energy. This location will be my go to going forward.“

“Food and service is great. Just a little stressful when its busy. Order ahead and pick up inside if you are in a rush. One time a lady was beeping in the drivethru lane. It was annoying. I agree one of the best or maybe the best DD I have been to.“
“Exceptional service with a smile. I’ve worked customer service for a very long time and Beatrice is a top tier employee. She’s working harder and faster by herself than my usual Starbucks fully staffed. It’s super busy and she is professional, friendly, giving recommendations while making delicious drinks efficiently. If I could leave 10 stars I would.“
