I've been frequenting Brewpoint-Founders cafe for several years now, and I can confidently say it's…read moremy favorite coffee shop. The ambience is unmatched--cozy, welcoming, and full of charm. My husband and I used to live nearby, and some of our favorite memories are walking over on weekends with our pup, grabbing coffee, and sitting out front just enjoying the moment. I recently visited the Elmhurst Craft location for an event and had one of those experiences that just sticks with you. I was chatting with a barista about how much I love (and deeply miss!) the Equinox. She mentioned she was newer and hadn't tried it, but saw it in the recipe book and agreed it sounded amazing--which, for the record, it absolutely is (or was ). A little while later, she came running up to me asking if I was the one talking about the Equinox. When I said yes, she surprised me with an Equinox sticker she had dug up. Such a small, simple gesture--but it genuinely meant so much and made my entire night. To the Brewpoint leadership team: that moment alone earned my loyalty for life. Customer service like that is rare, and it deserves to be recognized. I didn't catch her name, but I was there Thursday, March 19 between 6-8 PM at the Craft location--she was running the sample table and sharing the carrot cake latte (which, by the way, was incredible). Please pass along a huge thank you and some well-deserved recognition--she truly made an impact. And one last thing... BRING BACK THE EQUINOX!! Pretty please

This was my first time to the Brewpoint Founders Cafe and was completely impressed! From their…read moreother location, I like that this one truly aligned as a coffee shop. They still had the same coffee menu, seasonal drinks, and baked good offering; but, felt a lot more like a neighborhood destination. I ended up ordering coffee for my work team and all were impressed by the flavors! I got a Black Americano, Hot Borealis Latte, and the Whipped Carrot Cake Latte for myself. The Carrot Cake Latte may be a new all time favorite of mine! It wasn't too sweet but just leaned into the flavor profile enough. My coworker who had the Hot Borealis said it may have been her favorite latte she's tried. I also got the Herbed Goat Cheese Croissant which is familiar yet unique with the pop of savoriness. Overall, this was a great experience as a stop in when passing through the area. Brewpoint continues to have great flavors that leaves a lasting impression. Staff is friendly and pricing is fair.

Both tasted amazing! The espresso is STRONG yet the sweetness and flavors come through really well.

It feels as if you've walked inside of a really trendy coffee bar. Everyone is super warm and inviting. Which makes you instantly smile. This place is happy and energetic. I loved looking around at all of the different decorations, treats, and treasures. There's plenty of seating indoors or limited seating outdoors. Everything is spotless! And, they're fast, efficient, and no matter what you get it is perfect! It's a great place to go and study, hangout, or sit for an incredible cup of coffee! I had the pleasure of being introduced to this place by Yelp and I loved it! My go to drink is the iced decaf latte! This drink is creamy, dreamy, and delicious. With nots of toasted coconut, deep caramel, and cocoa nibs. Pure perfection! They also have a bar later in the day to try all kinds of in house made drinks. So, if you're looking for a trendy new coffee bar. Come here!

Every time I come here I find a new drink I enjoy. Their seasonal options have been fun and…read moredifferent flavor combinations than what I've found at other coffee shops. And their tea is amazing! My favorite so far was in the fall, they had a maple flavored tea that was just the right sweetness and tasted like maple syrup without being overwhelming. I went back to buy another bag to gift a friend, THAT good. I tried a charcuterie board, I wasn't expecting to be able to pick my meat and cheese options so that was a really cool surprise. The selections were tasty, and I felt like it was a good value. I forgot to take pictures, but they do a nice looking spread! Every time I've gone, the folks working there have been really friendly and helpful if I have questions about anything on the menu. I've gone during work hours and after hours, it can get a bit busy during the day with people working there but they have a great large back area with plenty of seating - I have never gone and not been able to find a spot to sit. I do wish they had some more comfy seating. The chairs at the tables are all metal, no cushion, so they aren't great to sit on for that long. In the front area there are wooden benches along the walls to sit on, and they do have some pillows you can use, but when you're there with someone and want to sit across from each other, one of you has to take the metal seat. Despite the seating, I still enjoy going - I've gone there to work, to sit and read, and it would be a chill place to setup a small tabletop game and enjoy a couple of hours with some good drinks, snacks, and friends.

Unfortunately they can't sub out dairy with non-dairy as the peanut butter milk is already made with dairy. I got to try it anyway, it's really good. The flavor and consistency was done perfectly. Probably one of the best flavored mocha I've had, and I don't even typically like peanut butter. I also like that it's not super sweet. The savory really balances out the sweet. The place is small but very quaint, filled with old styled furnitures and aesthetics. They also have limited outdoor seating too.

You order up at the counter, grab your number, and find a seat. Just a note that it can get busy on weekends and during peak lunch hours, so plan accordingly. In addition, they also have a full coffee bar if you're in the mood for an espresso or specialty drink. Solid lunch spot that we keep coming back to. I'm a fan. 'Til next time, cheers!

My latte was mediocre at best. It wasn't very flavorful, and it wasn't very coffee forward, so I wonder if they use less shots of espresso than is standard or less strong espresso. The thing that bothered me most though was that the barista swirled my drink in front of me, it splashed all over out of the top and sides of the lid, and instead of fixing it or apologizing (or even just acknowledging it!!!!), he proceeded to hand it to me and said "have a great day!" I walked over with my baby in tow and cleaned it up myself. It was SO odd to me. The space is bright, there are plenty of seats, and parking is easy. Such a shame that I didn't like the actual latte more! :/

Usually specialty drinks can be expensive in nice coffee shops like this, but it only came out to a bit over 5 dollars. It was so amazing, sweet without being too sweet, and the perfect ube flavor for someone relatively uninitiated with the purple root. It also came out super quick, I could see them working on it while I finished ordering! The employees are all very kind, one of them complimented my wallet and I love compliments so it just set the tone for a great day. I got a seat by the window. There is plenty of natural light in here and plenty of great vibes. About 7 tables in the main area, a couch, and a big table in a room towards the back. Also, a big mural and lots of plants. Really fun and artsy environment. They were selling t-shits and merch which all looked cool and had nice designs. Once I become a regular here (which I now intend on!) I think I will definitely have to get a shirt or hoodie. I noticed there aren't many reviews yet for here which leads me to believe it is not as popular as it deserves to be. But guys, you gotta come, or you're missing out!

The two women helped me pick the perfect pastry to go along side my lavender chai latte and regular chai latte, which was a gluten free vegan Ube muffin topped with cinnamon sugar. They warm the pastry up for me which definitely made it better. I maybe spent $15 for two drinks and a pastry which was phenomenal considering other places would have been higher in price. I'll definitely be returning to try other pastries and enjoy the large space the cafe has.

It's a large place, but the key for me is that they had a drive-through which is unusual to find around here unless it's a Starbucks or Dunkin. If in Westchester and want to support a business that's not Starbucks I'd give it a try.
