This was my first time trying Yemeni coffee, and the experience was truly unique!…read moreThe space is beautifully decorated with a great vibe, and the staff was super friendly and welcoming. Since it was my first visit, they kindly let me try a few samples before ordering. I tried the Jubani and the Mofawer. Both have very exotic, distinct flavors. They lean on the sweeter side, and because of the strong spice blend (lots of cinnamon and ginger), the aftertaste ended up feeling a bit like ginger/scallion aromatics to me. It's definitely an acquired taste if you're only used to standard coffee or espresso drinks, but it's very interesting to experience. Top-notch service and a lovely atmosphere overall. Even though the traditional spiced coffee flavor profile wasn't fully for me, it's a wonderful spot if you love spiced drinks or want to try something culturally authentic!

Wonderful little Yemeni-style coffee house with a great selection of pastries and sweets, plus…read morebold, smooth coffee and tea options. I love stopping in for a Turkish coffee or pistachio latte. The Turkish coffee is rich, aromatic, and pleasantly intense, while the pistachio latte is smooth and creamy with just enough nutty sweetness to keep it from feeling overly sugary. The shop is always clean, bright, and welcoming, and the staff are consistently friendly, attentive, and accommodating. Great drinks, great atmosphere, and genuinely good service. And honestly, once you've had a Turkish coffee or pistachio latte here, Starbucks starts feeling a little... pedestrian.

I recently visited Qmaria Yemeni Coffee on Westbrook Drive and had a wonderful experience. The…read moreplace has a cozy and welcoming vibe, with a warm aroma of freshly brewed coffee .The staff was friendly and helpful in explaining the menu. I decided to try The Mufawaar that had a deep rich flavor with just the right balance of spices . It had a unique twist compared to regular coffee. It felt smooth and comforting, something that stands out from the usual coffee shop drinks. But the presentation was good . Along with the coffee , I ordered a Ferrero Tiramisu pastry, which was a real treat. It was soft, layered beautifully, and had just the right touch of sweetness without being heavy. The chocolate and hazelnut flavors paired perfectly with the coffee, making it a delightful combination. I liked the coffee mugs they used I really liked about this place is how it blends traditional Yemeni coffee culture with a modern café feel. This place is spacious enough to sit and relax.

I really enjoyed trying this place out! As soon as I walked in, I was greeted very warmly, and…read morewhile sitting here, I noticed that the baristas made sure that no one ever walked in without being greeted. That was nice to see. All of the baristas were extremely helpful in suggesting things on the menu and everyone seemed enthusiastic which I appreciated. You don't get the feeling that you're being a nuisance like some places. I tried out their iced Banana Cabana latte and opted to make it a bit less sweet. I was worried that it would end up being super bitter but they honestly nailed it! The banana syrup (I think most or all of their syrups are made in house?) and the banana cream top were great! They also had a bunch of baked goods behind the glass which I think are also made in house. I kinda sorta wanted to get one of everything but eventually settled on the sticky date cake which was delicious. (I went back and got a second one) It was soft and was served warm and it was the perfect pair to my drink! The space itself is another thing that stood out to me. It's got big windows on the front and side so it's super bright and cozy feeling inside. Overall, I was really satisfied with my experience here and hope to be back for more sticky date cake!

Lala's is finally open, although it's just a soft opening. The interior is nice and bright with…read morelight and earthy tones. It's pretty small, though, with just five tables. They have standard espresso based drinks, as well as matcha, refreshers, specialty drinks, and some baked goods. I ordered a banana cabana, which was quite expensive. About $10 with tax and tip. It was generous in size and tasted good, but no banana flavor. Service was good.

I wanted to write a review because I worked here for about a month before being suddenly fired…read more The owner is nice, but her husband, who manages everything, created a very uncomfortable work environment. He frequently brought up politics, demographics, and "statistics" at work in ways that felt inappropriate and often came across as biased. It wasn't the kind of environment I expected from a workplace. I personally chose not to engage with these conversations because I was there to work, and I try to keep my personal beliefs separate from my workplace. However, being repeatedly exposed to these types of comments from management made the environment feel unprofessional. I also noticed that he would tell us certain employees had quit, but after speaking with those employees, I learned that was not always what happened. This made me feel like there was a lack of honesty and transparency in how situations were handled. One comment that really stuck with me was when he told me and another young female employee that we'd be prettier if we spoke more intelligently and that men would like us more. We are both very young girls, and that comment was incredibly inappropriate and made us uncomfortable. I was also told that if I came in early every day, I would receive a $1 raise. I did exactly that, and I received the raise on my final paycheck. Just a few days later, I was fired. It was confusing to be recognized with a raise and then immediately let go without being given a meaningful explanation. I was told I was being fired because I supposedly had an attitude with a customer. When I asked what had happened, I wasn't given a clear explanation and was simply told they had decided not to continue my employment. I work hard, take my jobs seriously, and I rarely leave negative reviews because I know everyone is trying their best. I didn't contact them afterward because I felt I had already been treated disrespectfully. After the way I was spoken to and the lack of honest communication, I didn't feel another conversation would have changed anything. As a customer, I also found the food to be average, especially for the price. Before I even worked here, my mom and I had cheesecake from the café on a few different occasions, and every time it had a noticeable freezer-burn taste. For the prices they charge, I expected much better quality. Based on my experience as both an employee and a customer, I would encourage people to support another family-owned café instead.

This place had been on my list to try for awhile. However, this place is a grab and go place and…read moredoes not offer any seating. Service was super friendly and they had my coffee poured even before I finished paying. They seemed to have regular customers that they greeted by name. I had a cold brew which is offered in two sizes. It was smooth and not bitter at all. Great spot, but tiny.

I was in Hinsdale with my daughter at My Sister Kate and thought we'd get a hot chocolate before…read moreleaving. This is a very tiny coffee shop and for those of you not terribly familiar with Hinsdale (myself amongst them) the place looks like it's in an alley but it's not; you're turning down the right street. There are a few parking spots down here so that makes it convenient. The shop has a good drink menu and also has donuts/muffins/sandwiches. I had a breakfast panini and I liked it. I wasn't sure what I'd think since I am always a bit on the fence about avocado, but wanted to try it without modifications. I liked the black beans on it more than I expected to. Overall it's an ok spot but the drinks are better than the food options. The owner has a great handle on her regulars; she was greeting folks as they came in and remembered the coffee order of a woman who hasn't been in for a while because she remarked on how surprised she was that she remembered her usual. There's no seating in the cafe, it's strictly a grab-and-go place. But they have an app of their own that you can use to order, and based upon what the owner was telling a customer, it generally works better than using the Toast app.

We came for the drinks and now we are coming here because of the employees!…read more Keshawn & Destiny are amazing! From the moment we pulled up Keshawn fun-self was engaging and made the process smooth and so fun. Engaging us with the question of the day. We met Destiny at the front with our order and she built rapport and was so nice to talk to. They have amazing customer service! They deal with so many people and have patience and still are amazing people. They make this location fun!! Come and see them!!

PSA: Do not go here if you're in a hurry…read more Love love love 7 Brew BUT this location just...lacks. This is a company that has risen to the top because of their *awesome* customer service and unfortunately that beaming interaction is not present at this location. I truly hope they find some spunk because I will not become a dedicated regular with these bad 'tudes. I've now visited this location 5 times. I wanted to wait to write a review since it's a new location to give them a bit of grace during the transition. I'm pretty disappointed though. The drinks are always good, which should be the most important part, but when driving away I haven't left in a better mood than when I entered the drive through line. And of course, that's THEE POINT of getting coffee! I've encountered the gen z stare multiple times, and when workers are friendly it seems forced. It's offputting and unwelcoming. Another issue with this location, I waited 15 extra minutes one time because there was mix up with the drinks in the car in front of me. I know it wasn't the employee's fault BUT there is no way to get out of line once you have your drink (far left line) so if there's an issue, everyone waits. That being said, you can get your drink fixed before you leave the line, but then you're the "a-hole" that holds up the line. Overall I love 7 Brew and I'm hoping they tweak the customer service here to become an all star establishment. You won't have to pay extra for the judgement or side eye from the employees here, but they will ask you for a tip! LOL

Beautiful new spot!…read more I was driving down Cass and remembered the shop opened. They have some street parking right in front. They have lots of indoor and outdoor seating. The inside is beautiful. My order was filled quickly. I ordered a small cold brew and it was probably one of the best cold brews that I have ever had. It was very smooth. Their sign says they have pastries, but they offered limited choices on day of my visit. (That is what lost 1 star from me). Definitely a cute new spot to give a try. They are in an excellent location not far from the metra.
