These guys are shaking up the coffee game in elgin. The owner Austin has worked in specialty coffee for over 10 years. That's significantly better then the buttered up "Starbucks" experience that other coffeeshop & bakery owners have in the local area. With that specialty coffee experience Austin brings together a team made up of baristas from daily projects and some of the big places from the Chicagoland area. This crew is focused on always improving and never being complacent.. this is the cafe Elgin has needed. The coffee itself is from Halfwit who roast for Dollop and the Wormhole.. they are also doing guest roasters which aren't no name roasters. At the moment they have Cat & Cloud, which if you know, you know. Viator exceeds with their brewing method as well by having an actual Italian espresso machine and the espresso is dailed in mutiple times a day to get tasty shots of espresso. Cafe Revive didn't even come close to what the crew here is accomplishing with their coffee. The knowledge and technical skills are bar none in comparison. The space that they have built out is intimate and comfortable, without feeling cramped or dated like other shops in the area. Their baked good done by Ally are exceedingly better then the ones made down the street at Arabica. Seriously these guys are worth your time.
