Honestly this cafe is such a comfort place. I started coming here for a monthly game night hosted by Joliet Pride Network and was welcomed with open arms. The staff is super friendly and eased my anxiety over time and now feel like friends. Doesn’t hurt that they also have some pretty cool drinks and snacks 😁
Such a cute spot, so welcoming and everywhere you look there’s some personality. Every time I’ve been here the staff has been so nice and accommodating that along with the different drink and toast specials keep me coming back. This place is a hidden gem and I hope they are greeted with the success they deserve here.
Came for the toast and drinks, stayed for the nerd activities! Love the miniature painting figure night and looking forward to learning how to play magic here. I want to bring all my work friends and have a board game night here too! Great place to hang with friends and make a few new ones (if you’re into that)
