Third Season — Restaurant in West Chicago Township

I stopped by this coffee shop expecting a typical café experience, and overall, it was a pleasant visit. The coffee was decent, not the best I’ve had, but certainly enjoyable. The space is spacious and comfortable, making it a great environment for working or studying. There’s plenty of seating and a relaxed vibe that encourages focus.

The staff were friendly and welcoming, which added to the overall good atmosphere. One thing I didn’t expect is that the café transitions into a restaurant in the evening. You can actually see the open kitchen, which is cool, but it can get a little loud with all the prep going on, something to keep in mind if you’re looking for a quiet spot later in the day.

Also, just a heads-up: Google Maps says the café stays open until 3 PM, but they actually close at 2 PM. It’s a small detail, but good to know so you don’t show up disappointed.

Overall, a nice place to grab a coffee and get some work done, with an interesting restaurant twist in...

New local favorite for anyone that lives nearby. This super cute cafe-come-arts workshop is a dream. The staff are super friendly. You can get both coffee and tea here and there’s space to sit in the adjacent evening restaurant while it’s closed so it you want to peek in there it’s great. This is a local guides dream. it’s drinks only so be aware of that but you can also buy their amazing locally produced tea to go (try the pagoda red while it’s there, it’s absolutely amazing) and even pick up flowers or sign up for their classes or tours of the roof garden.

This is a hidden gem and a totally zen environment to have a break from the norm in a beautiful building with lovely people. Drinks are of super high quality and it’s definitely something I almost don’t want to recommend so i can keep it exclusive feeling, but hopefully this becomes crazy popular as it’s a great addition to the...

Please don’t drink anything from here, it’s a cute shop but something is off

I got my first drink, their latte with oat milk and honey on Nov 27. I spent that night vomiting from food poisoning. I didn’t know what caused it but figured it was something I ate.

I went back on Dec 4 and got 2 drinks - an oat milk latte and a chai tea with whole milk for my bf… we BOTH spent the evening vomiting our guts out, had chills, fever.. the dr thought it was salmonella.

The only connection between those 2 sicknesses was drinks from here. It’s a cute shop but maybe their milks are expired, maybe their equipment isn’t used often enough or cleaned properly.

Just be...
