I did an online order/door dash so I did not get to see the actual place in person. From photos online it looks great!! Friends ordered lattes and lots of other things and they all came back made properly and tasting great. Not too milky not too much flavor or lack of flavor. Everything is great! I would definitely order from them again and I plan to as I continue my stay here in Illinois! I recommend it all! Not too badly priced either - especially with door dash. 20oz cold brew was $5.95. They had so many more items to choose from so I am looking forward to ordering from them again.

Visited this little coffee shop on a recent visit to my in-laws. We always love to find a local…read morecoffee shop and this one was great! It has a pretty small interior with only a few places to sit but that's okay, we were planning to take our coffee (and breakfast sandwiches) back to my in-laws. Staff was super friendly and kindly answered all of our questions and ground the fresh coffee beans that my wife got. We both got delicious lattes and bacon, egg, and cheese bagel sandwiches. Sandwich was good. Pretty classic pre-built sandwich but it was tasty and my toddler ate most of the egg off my sandwich! Lattes seem to run on the sweeter side, still a little sweet, even with added espresso so if sweet isn't for you, I'd suggest you ask for less syrup in your drink. Overall we were very happy with our stop and will gladly visit again in the future.

This used to be a really good place to get bagels. They even had a pop-up bagel stand at NIU. But…read moresomewhat recently the place has gone downhill. My last two experiences solidified for me that I'd rather go to Einsteins. My second-to-last time there the guy working put one of my bagels in the toaster after I clearly stated I didn't want them toasted. I repeated this when I saw the bagel go into the toaster. He reached into the toaster and pulled the halves out and threw them in a bag partially toasted along with the other bagel. He didn't wrap them. I asked for two sides of cream cheese. He gave me one. At the check out I told him I needed the other side of cream cheese. He went back and got it. I also said I wanted them individually wrapped as usual. He reluctantly un-bagged them and wrapped them. His coworker sat at a table visiting friends. Then this last time I went in the same worker went to ring me up at the register while someone else prepped my bagels. The guy stopped part way though ringing me up, looked at his phone, started texting, and walked into the back. Not a word from him. The other guy came over and actually rang me up -- turns out the amount the texting guy charged was wrong. I said: "Your coworker walked away in the middle of ringing me up." His response was: "Yeah, I don't know what he's doing." This was at 11:30a. And almost all the bagels were gone, the ones left looked like flat blobs. So yeah. Not going here anymore.

There are books to read (and you can drop some off too), games to play, and good food. We arrived and took a minute to take in the extensive menu. I had their Courthouse Blues, which is Roast Beef with Cheddar with some blue cheese on it - hot, and my wife had their breakfast bagel with sausage, egg and cheese. Once you order, you find a place to sit and they bring the food out to you. Fountain drinks and regular coffee get refills as long as you are there (if you leave no refills, which surprised me that they had to post a sign saying that, since it's pretty much the rule). Service was prompt and pleasant, the food was very good, and it's such a nice location with parking available in a lot to the west. What's not to love?

As soon as we were pulling up to window, a car pull around and cut in line at the window, I was caught off guard not knowing what was going on, well i figured out real quick it was one of the drive thru girls boyfriend or whatever. We waited 7 min behind him until I finally pulled out and went inside, there was about 10 drinks waiting for the people behind us and ours sitting just there. I asked them to throw out our drinks because someone cut us off in line and ordered at the window, they said ok and that was it, never going to this location again, and will def spread the word, if management would like to reach out to me, I would be glad to point out the girl so she can explain why he was allowed to pull up to window like that.

Their direct manager, Ninette is the sweetest individual in the world and is super passionate and 'patient' with the BS college students have as they show no respect. I've been treated poorly by upper management before and after working there for 3 and a half years, I can say I truly cannot label this place a coffee shop as they take no respect in certain coffee culture and processes. I would give this place somewhere between a Starbucks and a 7/11. I hope they turn this place around. Some of the workers are great, and I made amazing friends and Ninette truly is a sweet heart ( I recommend y'all say hi to her! ) I hope this place makes the come back I deserves.

An odd combination. They aren't open a lot so make sure they are before going, and there's a dining area but most customers will get it as takeout. Coming in here the first time was confusing. It's inside an Indian grocery store that also doubles as a place for making copies, if you can believe it. The counter is in the back, and there's usually just one person there. A lot of the food is prepackaged and ready to go. You just pay for it. It's about $12 for a meal, of which you get a lot of food. There's the classics like biryani and chana masala. Even though the location is weird it's still pretty good to be honest. It's a counter and a few tables but it's mostly for takeout. They're closed weekends.
