And it was really sad when they all closed, however I was very excited when this one opened and actually grew in size. I've been here multiple times however, I finally decided to do a review on them. I gave them the two stars for several reasons. There's never enough staff here and on top of that although this is located in the very nice Oak Brook mall, they are facilities for their restrooms are absolutely appalling and disgusting. It is not only filthy, but they are so worn down and worn out. The only positive about this place is that they are constantly stocked with product and really cute trinkets and things to purchase regardless. Of course they have a little café as well, but even that needs a real facelift and renovation. Because even sitting here in the furniture is disgusting. So if you do need to buy anything, I suggest you come here you buy it and you leave and sit down somewhere else to enjoy your cup of coffee if you do that or to actually sit down and enjoy reading whatever it is, you purchased elsewhere
