The Caramel Macchiato Slush tasted like a candy bar in a cup. The slushes were a great cool treat for summer. Watch out for the sealed top, one of ours was not sealed properly and spilled a bit all over the floor. I liked the wall mural and themed artwork. It was a nice melding of cultural images and modern city life. It was simple, minimalistic but left an impression of being bold and vibrant. We will definitely visit on repeat!

The inside was really clean and the staff were all very friendly. Ordered using the kiosks which was nice but it would be nice if the menu provided some more info about each drink. I'm sure the staff would've been happy to answer any questions but I also didn't want to be a bother. I ordered two iced brown sugar coffees with boba and 80% sugar and they were good but still a little too sweet for our taste. Next time we'll probably go for 50% sugar level. Would try again if I were in the area or saw one of thwir other locations.

We were absolutely heartbroken when our favorite bingsoo cafe closed, so my friends and I were on a…read moreserious mission to find a worthy replacement. Then--by pure luck--we stumbled into Hangout Cafe after dinner next door, and WOW... this place saved us. They have an amazing selection of drinks--coffee, tea, bubble tea, bubble milk tea, and bubble milkshakes--but let's be real, I was there for the bingsoo. Choosing was tough because everything sounded incredible, but I went with the strawberry bingsoo, and it was next-level delicious. Light, refreshing, perfectly sweet... 10/10. The service was fantastic, the cafe was clean and cozy, and there's even a parking lot (major win). We left already planning our next visit. Safe to say, we've officially found our new go-to dessert spot. Cannot wait to come back--HIGHLY recommend!

(I wish they had a loyalty program or punch card of sorts for her because of her affinity to the store!) Last night, she had a taste for bubble tea so we took her after dinner and we had some pleasant surprises in our drink choices! My boyfriend got the Cookies and Cream milkshake with oat milk ('cause dairy) and it was thick, delicious, and had a strong ratio of milk to cookie in it. Last time my parents took my daughter, I tried a Coconut Purple Berry tea and added tapioca. It is tea, coconut milk, and like, chunks of guava--delicious. I can tell you my daughter's go to is a Taro Milkshake which is milk and taro blended--very delicious! The presentation is appealing--it looks like white clouds in a purple sky. Other drinks I have tried include their galaxy lemon tea, a sort of ocean lemonade (?), etc. My daughter also lives for their croffles--I know she has had matcha, tiramisu, plain, etc. Last night's choice was matcha and there was not a crumb left in the box. Ordering is easy on the kiosk, and the staff is quiet, but friendly. I have been there with different sized groups at different times of day, and the food, drinks, and service are always consistent. Sometimes it's packed, sometimes it's not. Driving back home, I wanted to yell at all the youths in that green siren logoed coffee shop to drink something better across the parking lot, but I did not. I hope Straw & Bubbles continues to find Mount Prospect to be a good home!
