Long Grove Coffee Co. — Restaurant in Long Grove

I met a couple friends here a couple weeks ago and wish I knew of this place sooner. They are connected to Long Grove Confectionary and all the baked goods are made there.

However, the baked goods are fresh daily and the hot drinks are delicious. I ordered the hot apple cider along with an apple muffin and apple bread.

Overall, it was quite expensive for two drinks, but the atmosphere is very relaxing and refreshing. There are plenty of seats both inside and outside. We sat on the patio and listened to the birds...

I absolutely LOVE a great coffee shop, and this one did not disappoint. I am in the area for a wedding, staying a couple days and needed my espresso fix! The friendly pair of ladies behind the counter served up some delicious pastries (apple fritter and almond croissant) and an even better drink … drum roll… honey latte with lavender and pepper!
