Husband ordered a featured cinnamon eggnog drink, I ordered an iced caramel macchiato. Staff was overheard debating how to make husband's drink, unsure if the recipe used cinnamon despite cinnamon being in the name. The drink did not turn out well but we didn't feel comfortable asking for it to be remade after they weren't sure how to make it anyways. Caramel Macchiato was okay, I'd probably not order it again but nothing noteworthy about it. It's a very cozy lounge with couches and tables to wait for your drink or sit and enjoy. Convenient walk from the chocolate factory, so definitely pick up a treat or 2 to pair with your coffee

During my road trip to Chicago, we decided to stop in Galena for lunch on our way and I chose Big…read moreBill's and our group all enjoyed our experience here. This sandwich shop and coffee bar has a fun industrial and vintage charm, and plenty of seating throughout the location. The location was also well lit and airy, and I loved the exposed brick walls and fun eclectic frames along the walls. The service was also excellent and the girls who worked here were so sweet and helpful! My boyfriend and I both got the reuben and our friend got a chicken wrap. Both of them said they enjoyed their meals, and I thought my reuben was excellent and much preferred to typical road trip fast food stops. It was genuinely the perfect stop midway from Nebraska to Chicago, and a nice opportunity to stretch our legs and have a refreshing and filling meal. I would definitely recommend to try Big Bill's!

Got to say the lunch menu has more options. The prices are pretty okay for portions. Best place to get a sandwich or wrap around. It's a charming old place with plenty of seating. They have breakfast and lunch with lots of variety. Among the morning options are omelettes. The lunch menu features sandwiches. Has the classics and more. It's about $9 for the Hummus Wrap. A pretty filling thing stuffed with lots of it. There also was cucumbers and spinach. For sure it's a great place at breakfast. It's got a lot more options at lunch. They're closed Tuesdays.

The first day we walked into the store we met 6 new-old friends and we swapped stories for over 20 min. Coffee was fresh and the surroundings told of long days roasting coffee amongst friends. My guess is Bill, the owner, roasts everyday not to get rich but to make friends. The coffee is strong and the laughs are genuine. This is the true Galena experience. It's not the hippest coffee joint but it is the most interesting and friendly. We bought a pound of fresh roasted Indonesian beans for $10. I would have paid double anywhere else. Bill is the real deal.

They have a private bathroom here , which you need to ask the workers for the key to access. This place provides delicious handcrafted churrosmade fresh throughout the day. We sampled the combo , which had two churros and a dipping sauce and added an iced pistachio coffee. The churros and the dipping sauce were absolutely incredible. One of the best churros I have ever tasted. They have numerous flavor options for the churros.And also many different kinds of dipping sauce , it made it hard to choose. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. They paused to let me take some photos.And also showed me their quick efficient process of making the churros fresh to order. There's plenty of tables inside the cafe to sit down and enjoy your order. It's also air conditioned , in case you're trying to get out of the heat and looking for some shade. I\nHighly recommend this small , reasonably priced establishment.
