Great little cafe! The coffee was good, the food was nice, and the service was quick and friendly…read more That's all I want in a little coffee shop. Cute place for an intimate conversation, or a solo cup of audiobook.

I've tried a bunch of the food and coffee here and it's always a hit and excellent value. The…read moreweekends get a little busier (there's plenty of seating), but weekday mornings, this is also a perfect place to read a book or pop open your laptop and get some work done. There are obviously so many positives, but honestly the BEST thing about this place is the service. The owners are genuinely some of the sweetest in the area--you can tell they really care about their customers and take pride in their business.

Start the new year with a great coffee spot! I thoroughly enjoy this place and their seasonal menu!…read moreBut their breakfast sandwiches are SOO GOOD. It's hard to stop by without ordering one. I've only done drive thru, but their customer service is friendly and fast - when during a rush. The outside is cute as well, but the exiting/entering can be an issue from the customers from the nearby car wash. Highly recommend!

I popped in for some breakfast this morning and had a seamless experience. I placed my order in…read moreadvance, and it was ready when I got there. I opted to eat inside--there's only two chairs at a small bar area, so I wouldn't necessarily plan on doing that. However, they do have a small patio with umbrellas. Their drive thru seemed busy, but I was the only person inside during my visit. I had great service and my food was delightful. I got the breakfast bowl--a version of an old favorite of mine from their OG location in Demun. My cold brew was perfect too!

Came for Monte Cristo but menu has changed, so tried Viva La Crepe which is just as good for me…read more Satisfying but not too heavy, just the way I like it. Paired with mocha beautifully done. My companions had lake bake and French toast. Service and ambience were both great as usual. Fast and pleasant. No loud music which is sweet to my soul.

I was a little surprised by how this experience stacked up against the 4.6 rating…read more I ordered the turkey and brie sandwich, and it didn't really land. The bread was more like a basic sub roll than something you'd expect from a café like this, and the balance was off. It was very heavy on the turkey and pretty light on the brie, which kind of defeats the point of ordering that combo in the first place. That said, service was solid and the space itself is a nice, quiet spot if you're looking to get some work done over lunch. Overall, not terrible, but not something I'd go out of my way to come back for.

Great services usually just one person working but always super quick!…read more Love that this is open when I come to groups at church!

This coffee shop inside of Waypoint church is pretty neat. They have outdoor and comfy indoor…read moreseatings. Regardless of you're going to this church or not, it's a very nice coffee shop to spend time with friends/family, read a book or study/work here. They have a good drink menu and pastries/breakfast items. We got the Strawberry Lemon Sparker, hot chai latte and banana bread (vegan). All were good. Service was great and inviting.

Absolutely loved our breakfast here! My husband and I sat on the patio overlooking the river, and…read morethe view alone made it worth the visit! So peaceful, beautiful, and the perfect start to our morning! What truly made the experience exceptional was our server, Jenn. She was incredible from start to finish!! She was warm, attentive, and genuinely thoughtful. She made great recommendations, checked on us at all the right times, and went above and beyond in ways you don't see often. My husband is picky about biscuits and gravy, and Jenn kindly brought him a sample of the gravy first to make sure he'd like it...such a small gesture to some people, but truly made it special for my husband. She even sent us off with coffee to go, which we really appreciated!! The food was just as impressive. I had the traditional breakfast. Everything was cooked perfectly, the potatoes were nice and crispy, Jenn recommended the ham, which was so flavorful and perfectly charred, so good!!! My husband ended up loving his biscuits and gravy! Between the amazing service, delicious food, and relaxing riverfront setting, this was easily one of our favorite breakfast experiences. Jenn truly made it memorable, and we'll definitely be asking for her every time we come back. Can't wait to return!!

What a charming cafe in the middle of a charming Downtown area!…read more It was freezing the morning we went in, but I was wanting breakfast - specifically pancakes. I had this place in the bookmarks and figured now was the best time to visit. Parking can be an issues in Downtown St. Charles since it is limited to street parking or public parking a few blocks away. We found parking right in front of FPC, mainly because it was a cold, Monday morning. We were greeted immediately, and inside was much smaller than I expected. We got seated right away though, and a good chance to really review the menu. I got a house coffee (delicious), and my husband got a Purple Haze Lemonade. We ended up getting a kid's pancake with bacon and scrambled eggs, Short Rib Breakfast Stack, and a Bomb Burrito. The pancake for my 2 year old was MASSIVE so it was a good day for him lol. The short rib stack was yummy - hash browns with runny eggs and meat on top. The burrito was also pretty good. Our breakfast entrees came with a side order of potatoes and while it was good, it got saltier over time so I might not get that next time. They advertise beignets, so we might go for that next time and try out their lunch menu!

I'm totally obsessed with Pink Willow and I SOOO wish I lived closer, I'd totally be a regular…read more I've seen this spot on Instagram a ton, and when I had a meeting with someone who lived close, it seemed like the perfect opportunity to check it out. The space itself is so cute, it's very intentional and aesthetic. The pink stripes, ceiling clouds, plant paintings on the wall make it so unique. They have a pretty extensive menu, and I ordered a Garden Muse salad and it was delicious. I'm really simple and when it comes to salads, as long as the ingredients are fresh I'm happy. This hit the nail on the head. I added chicken and that made it super filling. The dressing wasn't sweet (which I prefer) and it's safe to say this is one of my new favorite salads :) I also ordered one of the latte specials which was a birthday cake latte. They were accommodating with my order of half sweet, and it was so good! I can't wait to come back for brunch! I'm already looking forward to it.

We were so excited to try the Pink Willow Cafe. It is a very cute place with outside dining in a…read morelovely area. We sat at an outside table and asked if the area around the table could be cleaned as there were a lot of bird droppings next to it. Unhealthy as well as gtoss! The manager came out and explained it can only be cleaned off with a power washer and that is done once a week. (Obviously not today!) She (manager) did cover the soiled area with a damp dish towel. When our order came out the food was mixed up on the plates---my eggs, husband's sausage, etc. The plates were removed and brought back out. Unfortunately the food was not as ordered and now too cool to eat as well as not prepared as ordered. We were offered a redo of our food but declined at that point. Sad to say we will not return.

So, this place is a hit or miss…read more When it hits - the coffee is perfect, the syrups aren't overpowering, and the ice isn't melted. But when it's a miss, they add TOO much syrup that its undrinkable, or its too milky (???), or the ice is already melted! I love the price though so we keep coming back. AND the girls working here are very sweet. Cold is really good, my husband likes their lemonade. The breakfast sandwiches are fine, but I think if you get it with bagel its better. The lines will be long so either prepare to leave early, or just ride out the wait.

We made a quick stop at Foundry Bakery and ordered a wide selection -- everything was delicious…read more We tried the milk bun, lavender yuzu berry cookie, egg tart, black sesame panna cotta, pineapple gem, orange bun, berry trio walnut bread, and the cronut. Not a single miss. The biggest standouts were the lavender yuzu berry cookie and the berry trio walnut bread. The cookie was incredibly well balanced -- floral, citrusy, and not overly sweet -- and easily one of the best cookies I've had in a while. It's also a pretty large cookie, so good for sharing... or not The berry trio walnut bread had great structure despite being packed with nuts and dried fruits -- really thoughtfully baked and especially amazing toasted. Overall, Foundry is a really great bakery. Absolutely worth the drive to try something new, and I'll definitely be coming back.
