Such sweet customer service! Love place and love the I am Java coffee! We appreciate them so much!read more

My husband and I stopped at Faye on the way through to the Giant City / Makanda area…read more We were welcomed upon entering, but didn't order immediately. We took a look at the photo display set up in the front. We ordered at the counter and I asked for advice. The staff member offered helpful input. I ordered the healthiest most delicious porridge. My husband ordered the avocado toast with bacon and an egg. He really enjoyed the chili crunch oil. We ordered a cardamom latte with cold foam and a salted caramel. We added on a biscuit with bourbon butter to go! The arrangement of the floor was spacious. The bathrooms were family and seemed sufficient for wheelchair users.

I got a you-pick-two with red pepper soup and a strawberry salad. While I was deciding, my eyes wandered over to the baked goods (this is absolutely a trend with me) and I saw a peanut butter pretzel cookie....whaaaaat? No way this wasn't going in my belly! Then I glanced over to the drink case and I saw....Topo Chico! In Murphysville, IL?!? This place stands out for curating the best in a small town. Now I'm really excited for my lunch! And it did not disappoint. The red pepper soup was roasty and hearty, definitely a good choice for this chilly weather. And the strawberry salad was fresh and refreshing. Does that make sense? The ingredients were so fresh and crisp - sweet strawberries in January I'd no small feat! - but it was light and hit the perfect note as an accompaniment to the red pepper soup. And that cookie? Do I even need to tell you how delicious it was? I didn't even offer my friend a bite. I ate the whole thing and I'm not ashamed. So good! A delicious lunch and nice respite in a small Illinois town. Worth going out of your way, for sure!

Amazing place for breakfast, one of the best if not the best breakfast spot in Southern Illinois…read more Service is fantastic, this is a family owned business and the family feel they extend to the customers in incredible. The owners are out among the customers, waiting tables, taking orders are just chatting. This has that small town hole in the wall restaurant feel which to me is amazing.

Cindy B's is everything you want a hometown cafe to be--welcoming, charming, friendly staff with good senses of humor, and absolutely delicious. The beef veggie soup and grilled cheese was spot on. My family members all enjoyed their food, as well, and then our lovely hosts brought us a slice of coconut pie and pineapple upside down cake, just for stopping through. Diner pie...oh my. We'll need to make sure we make more trips through town, just to stop at Cindy b's!

They managed to set up the food in about 15 mins but by that time over half the guest had left. They upcharged us from $2700 for 75 people to $4000 for 125 ppl by the time the cold food was served we had less then 75 ppl left. They offered $500 back that's all. Worse once the food was served most of it was cold including the bread that was still freaking frozen. The workers who were there though were extremely polite and hard working trying to please everyone but hard to do when the company don't bring the food. I only recommend this company if you want to pay extra for sub par food, and have them show up 2 hours late

Easy to find in a big open lot, so it's not odd to hang around and enjoy your sips. We loved that they brew Onyx Coffee- SO good. My honey latte was so delicious, I can't wait to go back. I'd love it if they offered some more treats, but it was nice that they had a couple packaged offerings. I'll try a different drink next time for sure, though it'll be hard to pass on that honey latte, mmmm!

It was decorated with some cool HP theming and we liked a lot of what they had there. We all tried the butter beer and unfortunately for all 3 of us it just wasn't what we thought it would be. It was snot at all sweet, which we figured butter beer would be even after sweetening it, it just didn't taste like we had hoped. This place is awesome in concept, and perhaps lots of people like it, it just wasn't for us

Got the butterbeer cold brew--a little pricy, but I say it's worth it for the experience and to support such a fun & new place in Carbondale! Also: THEY HAVE OATMILK WHIPPED CREAM!!

I mean Starbucks has flavored coffee all the time but in Harrisburg, we don't have a Starbucks and I'm not driving all the way to Marion to get just a cuppa coffee, that's ridiculous.

I found aloe vera juice, spring roll wrappers, pho noodles, etc. You would never be able to find that at a Kroger's. The man who works here is very nice and accommodating. If there is something you need, he will try to get it for you (even if it's out of stock). The only downside is that they have no fresh seafood, but that is something I can live without. This place is heaven sent for people from other parts of the world!

They were crunchy and delicious (a great chip replacement). I saw durian popsicles, too. Crazy. There were great cheeses I never find at the regular grocery store, including Kashkawan (or Kashkaval) cheese...one of my favorites. I also found Thai tea, tahini, horchata mix, and many many other delicious fabulous things for me to experiment with. The guy running the place was super helpful and friendly. I think the prices are reasonable. I saw some of the same international items at the grocery store for a higher price. There was plenty of parking.
