I have had the coffee here as well previously, and it's always good, too. All the Tala locations are top notch.

The shop itself is adorable with tons of natural light, brick walls, some plants, the works. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The baked goods looked great but I didn't get any. Music is a bit loud but that's to be expected; I was still able to get some work done with headphones. The espresso itself was fantastic. Really smooth and flavorful. Plus they do it right and serve with sparkling water and a small nib of extra dark chocolate. If I lived in the are this would 100% be my go-to working cafe and I recommend stopping in if you get the chance.

Everything you want in your local donut shop-nice people, great prices and great donuts. A plus for…read moremy nut allergic daughter is that none of their donuts had nuts.

I was so happy to come across this local gem and obviously I was in the right place for donuts…read morebecause the people just keep coming by the twos and threes lol. The donuts were fresh and moist and plump and the icing and glazes were thick and evenly distributed over the dough. No wild gimmicks- just smiles from behind the counter and donuts that don't look like they're about to die. The only critique I have is that the flavors are a little more distinct. However I don't like my donuts with a bunch of stuff on top to produce a flavor either ...... so yeah- I will definitely be going back

Being the first time there, I wasn't sure how it worked. Could I order only what's in the display or were there some in the back? The man working there was super nice and helpful. He advised me that I can choose from the menu and he will make it in the back. I went with the Mexican hot chocolate donut. The first bite was into a crisp exterior and a soft, fluffy interior. The combo of glaze and cream was slightly sweeter than I'd like, but perfectly complimented my black cold brew coffee. I definitely want to come back and try the strawberry fields signature donut.

We used to order a lot of birthday cakes from this Deerfields Bakery.  They always did an excellent…read morejob.  Our daughter's favorite customized cake was an 8" to 10" chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream filling, and chocolate whipped cream frosting, which was huge, rich, and delicious.  Ever since she was little, it also became a tradition to pick up a big smiley face cookie for her whenever we picked up a cake. Recently, we had ordered a small cake from the Deerfields Bakery in Buffalo Grove, and really loved it.   A few days ago, while I was in the Deerfield area, I decided to stop by the Deerfield location for the first time in at least five or six years. This bakery has gone through a nice renovation. It is clean, bright, modern, and pleasant, just like the one in Buffalo Grove, except that it is a lot smaller.  Since it was after 4:00 pm when I went, within an hour of closing, some of the shelves were already empty, which is understandable and probably a good sign for the business. Out of nostalgia, I purchased a big smiley face cookie for $3.95.   The girl who helped me was very polite and friendly even though I was just purchasing one cookie.  That made the visit even more pleasant.  However, I would likely get some other baked goods instead next time, as this cookie and its icing were quite hard, and just tasted like a lot of sugar. I am deducting one star mostly because of the parking situation.  There are only four parking spaces by the building, once these spaces are occupied, customers have to walk to the parking lot in the back that's diagonal from the bakery, and cross a busy driveway shared with a bank.  This can be especially inconvenient when carrying a cake. Since the Buffalo Grove location is much larger and has its own parking lot that makes parking easy, I will most likely continue going to the Buffalo Grove location unless I happen to be in the Deerfield area.

After looking for a donut shop other than Dunkin Donuts, Joe Donut popped up in my Google search. I ordered a chocolate glazed red velvet, which was surprisingly good. I also ordered an Oreo crumbled glazed donut. Because it was large and there was glaze and Oreo crumble, I ate it in two settings. I don't know if the Glenview location is a bakery or a bake shop, possibly getting donuts in daily from a bakery location. The donuts were fresh but there seemingly was a limited supply when I went. And I went around 8:45 AM. It may have been that the commuter crowd had bought most of what was available. The location is at a train stop. Nevertheless, if I'm near Glenview and have a taste for donuts, I'II stop by Joe Donut again.
