Critical Grind is certainly a great place if you like board and card games. Has crap tons to choose from including some most people have never heard about before coming here. The drinks and food aren't the main attraction but these are good mostly. Came here the first time and we just wanted to look around. It's got a counter to order at and a few tables in front. The back is where it's at as far as fun and games. A crap ton of board games are piled up basically. Has so many games back here it's hard to pick just one. The drinks and food are easier choices thankfully. It's about $5 to get a latte. There's some non dairy milk choices including oat. It's about $6 for avocado toast, of which there's a few choices. The Hummzza comes with balsamic glaze, basils, and tomatoes. Great place with lots of fun. It's located in the plaza next to the sports cards store. There's often events going on here so check the website.

Review Visit: June 13th, 2015…read more If someone hit you in the face with coffee beans, if the attempt to wake you up... would that be a Brewed Awakening? Honestly, I would be happy to wake up to coffee! Brewed Awakenings has your standard fair when it comes to coffee selection and that is just fine. I don't recall what I had there, but everyone I was with enjoyed what they got. If you are in a hurry and need your coffee in a hurry, they have a convenient drive-thru for you!

For a little coffee shop this place exceeded my expectations. Me and my wife recently came here…read moreafter visiting the pumpkin patch nearby and we need a place to sit down and visit. This is a 2 in 1 store. It's a coffee store and it's also a little boutique shop next door as well. The coffee shop feels like you're in a upscale Lounge. There is free Wi-Fi upon purchase. This place is very quiet and peaceful at the same time. The drinks here are very affordable. I absolutely love the fall specialty flavors that they have here. This place was incredibly amazing. They have some food here as well that I unfortunately did not have time to try. Overall, I highly recommend checking this place out.

This Kafe and s WELL worth the drop. I drive by often when out west. My first time here I'm ashamed…read moreI passed by so many times and never stopped in. Situated just off of Rt 30 / Lincoln Highway in Cresthill IL on the side of the road it's a little red house with a decent sized parking lot. Super cute and way cozy. I always notice the patio that folks sit on early mornings and decided it was time. Upon entering I had three super friendly women say hello to me. It's larger than it looks with seating inside in nice booths and really well decorated. It's also very clean and customers keep rolling in on way to work. The staff is awesome and the women I spoke to informed me that they've been there about 5 years and that all the pastures are made in house. These are not average d eryday pastries they are luxurious treats beautifully created at a reasonable price. The in house bakers need a huge shout out along with the entire staff. Their coffee is really good too, string but not at all overwhelming. Actually excellent stop. I'm sure they will be seeing more of me. You really gotta try this place and I'm sure you'll return.

This is after multiple trips to this location.... i think it would be unfair to write a review…read moreafter JUST 1 or 2 visits: This location struggles with 1. Understanding what extra HOT means.... if i order extra hot please do NOT simply give me a drink that is warmed to a kids hot chocolate temp. 2. Please fulfill the order according to the size of drink ordered! Too many times i order a Venti for my wife and I and 1/3 of the cup is filled with whip cream and I am presented with a grande size drink in a venti cup. I understand everyone loves whip cream- but the reason i am there is to buy coffee!!! 3. Finally and most important... i get everyone has bad days and customer service is a tough tough job... but for the love of Jesus- please smile once in a while... That's it... i hate writing negative reviews, but this had to be said.

It's absolutely popular and I love how customer focus it is with giving it a vibrant environment that feels like I'm inside of a college hangout. The lines here are a bit long at times of the day, there's offices conducting businesses to around you as well. It's a great place that features events happening too. They are also dog friendly and they have non - caffeinated options. Guest interactions me and my wife enjoyed were the photo booth as well as the games nearby. Prices here are very reasonable and we met the owner who was very nice and courteous! She definitely knows how to knock out orders quickly! The warm, vibrant atmosphere was inviting and I was very appease with my visit and specially that a place like this exists in Joliet Illinois is absolutely incredible. I highly recommend checking this place out!

There's so much to look at everywhere you turn, it's easy to lose track of time just taking it all in. I loved all the little details, like the spools of thread on the light fixtures and the bed headboard used as a railing. The mix of antiques, vintage cloth, and bright, colorful decor makes the whole space feel fun, classic, and full of charm. The food was amazing. The pastries were so soft and delicious--they really do melt in your mouth. The main entrées were just as good--full of flavor and perfectly portioned, leaving you satisfied without feeling too full. The tea was served so nicely and made the whole experience feel extra special. The service was just as great. Everyone was friendly, attentive, and quick. They knew the menu well, gave great recommendations, and were happy to help with any special requests. Overall, it's a beautiful and relaxing place to enjoy good food and tea. Definitely a five-star experience!
