We hosted an event at Towne and Oak, and it was absolutely exceptional from start to finish! The space is stunning—elegant yet inviting, with a soothing ambiance and perfect acoustics that made for an intimate and enjoyable experience.
A huge shoutout to Lisa Hansen, who is a phenomenal event coordinator! Her expertise, attention to detail, and seamless organization made everything effortless for us. She anticipated our needs before we even had to ask and ensured every aspect of the event was flawless.
The service was equally outstanding—Curt and Diane went above and beyond, bringing warmth, kindness, and professionalism to every interaction. They made our guests feel welcome and well cared for, adding a personal touch that elevated the experience even more.
And the food—simply delicious! Every bite was thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented.
If you’re looking for the perfect place to host an event with impeccable service, breathtaking ambiance, and a dedicated team that truly cares, Towne and Oak is it. Highly recommend!

Towne & Oak is one of Winnetka’s gems. It’s that perfect blend of casual and chic—a fast-casual dining experience where you order at the counter, but the food is brought to your table with care. The quality of the food is outstanding, and the atmosphere strikes just the right balance: informal yet tasteful, bright, and inviting.
The space has a light, airy feel, with simple, almost cafeteria-style tables, but it all comes together beautifully to create a relaxed and stylish environment. And if you’re here in Winnetka because you love Home Alone, you’re in for a treat—Towne & Oak embraces the movie theme with playful cutouts and decor that make it a fun stop for fans.
Whether you’re a local or just visiting, Towne & Oak is a must-visit. Great food, great vibes, and a charming nod to Winnetka’s most famous house!

Fabulous atmosphere, nice place to socialize or study
They have some vegan options which are excellent but I would like to see more vegan options. The staff is usually great and nice, but there’s a younger woman here with blonde hair, a little chubby. She was actually quite rude. She let me stand there for five minutes before helping me. She was not nice and afterward I saw and heard her talking poorly about me after the interaction. It’s a shame because everyone else has always been great and the food/coffee’s decent. As they say: its the employees that you don’t fire/retrain, that will scare off all of your business. Space and location are superb.

Definitely a cute spot to eat and hang out. Portions & prices could be adjusted better but overall, food was decent!
The atmosphere is beautiful because of the natural lighting that comes into the building.
