“One of the friendliest spits in Chicago. The food is good - outstanding sausage, and you have to have their home-made salsa - and it's an incredible bargain, especially their breakfast "sidewalk special."“

“Our coffee and Matcha Latte Float was very delicious. The service was SUPERB..We will be coming back☺️☺️“

“Amazing food. Staff was great and the owner likes Kola Champagne lol so he stocks it. Perfect way to celebrate my kids' graduations. Hopefully I can host a Cars and Coffee there. Best of luck, we will spread the word.“

“I travel to the area for work and always love coming here! ♥️♥️“

“Non-sweetened almond milk for my lattes, unlike Starbucks.“

“Bright, open, comfortable space for people meeting up in pairs, groups, or working solo. Outlets available along walls under bench seating. Two bathrooms divide the front room from the more dim/ "cozier" room in the back, which offers additional seating in the form of larger, wider tables. Acoustics are decent for the size and height of the ceiling /open brick space. Ironically this cafe has a quiet ambience that makes it great for working on a laptop with headphones on without getting distracted by the typical loud, jarring sounds normally heard at smaller or more common cafes. Music is not too distracting or loud, and features a wide range of genres. I think the staff changed it up manually to mix it up every hour or so. It didn't sound too generic or predictable. Also, the staff here are extremely friendly, knowledgeable, sweet, and cheery, and made suggestions to customers while they ordered. I loved my cold brew and Lorraine Croissant which was heated up. The absolutely gorgeous and enviable "living wall" full of real plants ? at the front is an AWESOME use of vertical wall space. It is always great to see businesses using real plants. I also appreciate the subtle stylish additions like the pretty chandeliers and beautiful metal hand-created signage on the other walls. Metal chairs at the tables near the other side of the cafe are not that comfortable after awhile, but not terrible either. Bathrooms are accessible for all needs and there is a high chair near the bar if you need one for a kid. Parking is tricky as the lots in the front and back can fill up quickly at the start of the day/midday.

Wheelchair accessibility: Open space allows for wheelchair accessibility at tables, in bathrooms, and when ordering. Doors do not open automatically though.“

“What a super store for food, magazines, music and especially lefty books!“

“I purchased a Biscoff cheesecake and it greatly exceeded my expectations!!“

“Deserves more than 5 stars! WONDERFUL experience each time I come here. Everything made from scratch. Not just pierogi ---Gelato, soups, empanadas, tamales, pizza pie (takes 50 mins to make from scratch and worth it!!) Premium Belgium chocolates, shakes, Coffee and most recent.....160 (yes one hundred and sixty) different premium teas from around the world!!.....and more to come! They also own the tea room and book store next to the cafe. Owners are THE BEST! Welcoming, personable and humorous. Dinning outside available and pups are welcome! You can tell they have a passion for the business. HIGHLY recommend! ENJOY!“

“The Applewood bacon was so delicious“

“Cute little coffee shop. Excellent cannolis. Very friendly service.“

“Came here today (party of 6, with three small kids) and everything was wonderful. Very helpful staff, lovely restaurant, and delicious food. We were hoping to sit outside but the indoor ambience was lovely. All of our food was amazing and came out quickly. We had a hard time deciding on how to order food for two toddlers and the waitress stepped right in with suggestions and portion sizes. It really took the leg work out of ordering food and hoping it wouldn’t be too much/too little. This is such a welcome addition to the downtown Skokie area as there aren’t many decent brunch/lunch options so we will definitely be back and we hope Don Julio’s becomes a mainstay here!“

“Byłam z mężem na obiad w Polish Paczki Cafe bardzo smaczne i świeże dania obiadowe Polecam każdemu kto lubi dobrze zjeść! Pyszne ciasta i pączki, bardzo miła obsługa ?“

“I’ve been to this cafe several times, I really liked it, it’s a good place, the food is halal, delicious!))))

Parking: The parking lot is large and free, even trucks can park.

Kid-friendliness: And good food for kids and adults.“

“Wonderful brunch with family. Very tasty corned beef skillet and chorizo skillet. Good waffles and crepes!!!“

“Adorable interior when we went to pick up and the waitress was so sweet getting our order for us when we showed up. Food was absolutely amazing and full of flavor! Rich sauces that complement the meats and breads. We also got the soup of the day which had chicken, potatoes, carrots, corn and a few other elements to it and it blew my mind. Rich, savory and the right spices. We are from Iowa but will definitely go back when we are in the area again!“

“Excellent service, very clean. Too many choices of sandwiches. Great coffee. Love, love this place.“

“Every time I walk into FitFuel Fusion, I'm greeted with the friendliest smiles. The staff here always makes me feel welcome, and the positive energy is contagious.

One of the best things about FitFuel Fusion is the guilt-free indulgence. Their smoothies are packed with protein and taste amazing, but what really blows my mind are the donuts. Who knew you could enjoy a donut and still feel good about your choices? Here, it's a reality. These protein-packed treats let me satisfy my cravings without any guilt.

And let’s not forget the free workouts they offer! The sessions are awesome—challenging yet fun—and make it even easier to stay on track with my fitness goals. Combining a great workout with a delicious, nutritious post-workout smoothie makes FitFuel Fusion the perfect place for both health and happiness.

If you're looking for a spot that fuels your body, keeps you motivated, and satisfies your sweet tooth, FitFuel Fusion is the place to be. Highly recommend!“

“quick, friendly, delicious“

“First off this was my 1st visit to this location and it is so cute!!! The atmosphere is so chill and inviting. The owner is super nice! Tried the Crepes for the 1st time and they were delicious! Now I usually visit Tower Nutrition because it's by my house, but this is his wife's location and closer to my job so... I was ecstatic to learn I could get my healthy eats while at work as well.“

“💕 it! Been going in Florida forever. Glad we finally have them here! Very clean, great covid precautions. Food and smoothies were really good!“

“The food here is amazing especially regarding how many gluten free dishes they have. They have the largest gluten free dessert menu I’ve ever seen! So many delicious options that I just keep coming back. They also have a modern, but warm atmosphere that is delightful. This place is clearly a hidden gem and a must try!“

“Great, but pricey pastry. Good breakfast and light lunch in a very pleasant setting.“

“Delicious food and excellent service. If you want big dishes with such a big smile, come to Cafe Cubano.
The pork was perfect, and they fried the plantains perfectly.
The staff was splendid and gave me great recommendations.

We also got the churro cheesecake bites that were to die for! The woman was so sweet to give us a sample of some tomato soup, as well. Will definitely be a new regular!“

“Absolutely best empenadas I've tasted in a long time. Very warm environment and great owners. Go Cubs“

“I just tried a mini pumpkin pie that was served at a wedding a few days ago. The pie was delicious and the crust was still flaky and perfect - and that’s after a few days! I can’t wait to take my family to the shop. As a mother to a daughter with Down Syndrome, I absolutely love supporting businesses like this. Thank you for creating job opportunities for people like my daughter!“

“The Lattes and pastelitos were delicious!“

“The Artist Room Cafe on the Westside is a hidden GEM! The owner was super cool and the food was delicious. 🤤 If you get a chance check them out you won’t be disappointed. Caribbean Steak Sandwich is your abuelitas Bistec Encedollado! 🤩“

“After driving past Elijah's in the mornings for the last few months I finally decided to stop in and give it a try (you should always try to support local). I ordered a large Black Coffee with a shot of espresso, I even mentioned to the guy making my coffee that it was my first time here and he was polite and said Welcome. (When was the last time you heard someone say welcome?) The girl behind the counter asked if I wanted anything else and I asked If they made there Scones fresh and she said yes we bake daily. I bought a variety to bring to the gig for the crew this morning. My Coffee was made exactly the way I make it at home and the Scones were still warm and made me feel like I was on Arthur Avenue at Morrone's pastry in the Bronx waiting in line for them to come out of the oven fresh. I must give Elijah's Coffee 5 stars today and recommend it to everybody and I will now be a customer. Thank you for keeping that real original old school home town vibe in a Corporate jungle of garbage we are forced to deal with in this world today. Elijah's Specialty Coffee“

“Food was plain tons of fat on my sandwich. Best part of the meal was the bread.“

“NOTE: This review for Eli's Cheesecake is based on my experience at Eli's Cheesecake's concession stand at the Taste of Chicago on 09/07/2024. I had the cookies and cream cheesecake smoosh. It was the highlight of my experience at the Taste of Chicago. It was delicious. Perfect blend of chocolate, cheesecake, and it came with a scoop of vanilla ice cream to top it off. Scrumptious. Cool staff. Huge concession stand with plenty of registers to get everyone moving along quick. I will definitely visit their establishment in the future. Made my night.“

“Fantastic and amazing fresh food!!! Alex was a perfect host/server! Will be back!“

“Whirlwind has become the primary place I get coffee now. In addition to loving the flavor I can’t help loving the business model. So wonderful ❤️❤️❤️“

“Absolutely the best pancakes that I have tasted in a very long time.
If you are like me, and steer away from pancakes because they just don't taste as good as your great-grandmother's, you have to eat a stack at this cafe.

The first bite literally took me to my grandmother's table. I could not be happier with my breakfast today.

The service is consistent, the atmosphere is cozy, and.... well you know what I think about the food.

5/5 all around.“

“Food & beverages are very good. The one thing I hate is NO PAPER TOWELS IN THE RESTROOM.I know it cost more but I hate those dryers that stir up all yge germs.I also hate using the door handle after people who don't wash their hands.Come on, add a dime to my coffee and keep things more sanitary.“

“The lemon ricotta cookies are amazing! Also Spimoni or Italian ice are delicious as well!“

“Great neighborhood spot with great food/drinks and friendly staff!“
