[[HIGHLIGHT]]I love this super cute cafe and bakery![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I live out of state and I frequently visit my friend in the area. We discovered this place recently and make it a point to go there whenever I'm in town. The staff is friendly and food is delicious. We placed a mixed order (we wanted to enjoy some items in the cafe and take some to go) and the staff kindly offered to keep our to go items in the fridge until it was time for us to leave to ensure they'd be as fresh as possible - totally going the extra mile! We've been here for both breakfast and lunch. On the breakfast side I enjoyed the pistachio latte with oat milk and the apple cinnamon danish, and my friend enjoyed the Ube shaken espresso and the quiche, both of which she loved. On the lunch side I loved the grilled cheese with fig spread and my friend enjoyed the ground beef Turkish bread - it's huge and flavorful! I also had the pistachio tiramisu which was HEAVENLY. Currently in the fridge we have the pistachio tres leches and the Dubai chocolate cake jar which we're excited to try next! I'll definitely be back!

Spinach Turkish bread

I met a friend here a few months ago for the first time and have already been back several times because I genuinely love the food and coffee. This cafe does so many things right, starting with the spacious parking lot located in a large strip mall, which makes stopping by very convenient. Inside, the dining room is bright, elegant, and welcoming, and the staff has been consistently friendly and kind. During my first visit, my friend and I ordered for dine-in, and I immediately appreciated the thoughtful details. The ordering counter displays a variety of freshly made pastries and bakery items that are very tempting. My drink was served in a real glass, and my food came out hot on an actual plate with a fork. I love places that make dining in feel intentional and special rather than treating it like takeout. I ordered the spinach Turkish bread ($8.75), and it completely exceeded my expectations. It was generously filled with spinach, cheese, and garlic, and the flavor was outstanding. You could tell it was freshly made and homemade. Just writing this review is making me crave it again. I also ordered an iced caramel macchiato ($6.25), which had a perfect balance of sweetness and bitterness and paired really well with my food. One downside is that the dining room is not very large, so tables are close together. As it got busier during our visit, I became a bit uncomfortable because I could clearly hear the conversation at the table next to us, which meant they could hear ours, as well. It is something to keep in mind if you plan to stay. Because of this, I now usually order my drink to go. Overall, I am extremely impressed with this cafe. It has quickly become one of my favorite spots for both food and coffee, and I will absolutely continue coming back.

I've been here a couple times now. The first time I went, I ordered a london fog, which was very good. I happily came again and ordered the ube matcha. For 10 dollars, it was ridiculous. There was barely any matcha and it still managed to taste cheap. There wasn't any ube flavor to it either, just tasted like milk with food dye. If visiting, wouldn't recommend the ube matcha.

Enjoyed coming here with my bestie, another cute new turkish café opening up in the area and im living for it. I do wish the smaller items were a bit cheaper but otherwise I really enjoyed my passionfruit cheesecake

I try to stop in here for pastries and coffee every time I visit my parents because it's that good. I love the variety of baked goods (savory and sweet). Their drink menu is just as diverse and I try something new every time. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This cafe is spacious and cozy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]There a ton of people in there working/studying but also just relaxing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I'll be back and if you're on the fence with trying it please just do it - it's a definite yes.

Went with some friends around 1p on a Saturday. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Beautiful, open and welcoming vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I appreciated that they both had printed menus to review but also a display case of the food. There was no line and the employee who rang me up was friendly and helpful. I asked to buy a Coke with my meal but since they're more of a coffee shop they don't have soda. I asked if it'd be ok if I drank my own Coke I'd brought and they were fine with it. We all had the Turkish bread - two of us had the spinach and feta while the third had beef. I loved mine. Crispy flavorful crust and lots of garlic flavor melded nicely with the spinach and feta. Food came within minutes of ordering. Would definitely come again!

I have tried a few items at Sweet Reserve, including their fresh pastries, lunch items and lattes in the morning. [[HIGHLIGHT]]As others have shared, the space is small so it is hard to find a seat during busy times of day.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]But, I often see people working here or having what appear to be work meetings or school study groups.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The savory pastry I tried was a sweet, salty, and flaky Mumbai chicken filled treat. It paired well with an iced coffee drink. Check out the unique, hand-crafted art and jewelry for sale in the corner near the front. The lines and wait times are longer during Friday Farmers' Market Fridays, so don't expect to get in and out quick on those days. (Fridays, June through October). I would love to return and try their macarons. Parking here can be a challenge when it is busy too.

Sweet Reserve Bakery & Cafe is exactly what it's named. It's tucked away in the same center as Bonefish Grill. They have a very nice barista coffee bar where they make really good lattes, cappuccino's and espresso drinks. They have a nice place to sit and enjoy your coffee and sweets too. The deserts that we tried were all excellent! The XL sugar cookie was the perfect amount of sweet, was nicely dense and soft in the middle. The key lime tart was made with fresh limes and a light meringue on top. The mini pecan pie was loaded with nuts and had a simple biscuit like crust. The brown bomb (I call it) was a beautiful mousse enveloped by a decadent thick ganache' coating. The pistachio tiramisu was pretty good but I just returned from Italy and of course no tiramisu is going to come close to this! But they did a nice job and made it authentic with pistachios and I liked the rose petal garnish they put on the top. The individual cup style was perfectly packaged. They offer breakfast items and have cakes you can order or choose a ready made that can be personalized. Also huge variety of macaroons. All in all the prices for the items I felt were good as they are using all top quality ingredients. Everything tasted Devine! Very nice packaging and the sweets are very impressive too if you're bringing to a get together. I definitely will be back to try other treats from them. Very nice to have them in the neighborhood too since Deerfield's closed.

Tiramisu
Joe M.

Stopped by real quick on my way to my next meeting to grab a coffee and a sandwich. I was a bit surprised (and honestly a little confused) that they didn't have regular drip coffee only Americanos. I went with a cold brew instead, but it unfortunately tasted more like water than coffee. Personally, I wouldn't recommend coming here for drinks. On the upside, the food and desserts were much better. I tried the tiramisu, which was absolutely delicious moist, rich, and flavorful. I also got the chicken salad croissant sandwich, which was generously filled with chicken and tasted fresh. Servers were kind, younger staff. [[HIGHLIGHT]]And the place was well decorated, could use some music.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Even with people in it, seems quiet.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall, I can't say I'd come back for beverages, but it's definitely worth visiting for the pastries and baked goods. If you're here for something sweet, you'll probably leave happy.

Generous 3 - This bakery and cafe is super cute. Bright throughout with a lot of places to sit. The space itself is on the smaller side and I was surprised to see how they were able to add as many tables/chairs as they did. This CAN be a great spot to huddle up and work out of. If you're looking to charge your laptop that will be challenging. There aren't many/any outlets to utilize. I was here with 2 other gals and 1/3 of us were happy with the food/drinks. I tried the Kashmiri chai and wanted to sub the milk for oat but wasn't able to. The staff member let me know that particular drink is made in bulk/large batch so there's no way to sub anything. I decided to try it anyway as I've seen the Kashmiri chai as a popular drink. It was a miss for me, didn't taste fresh and the quality was underwhelming. I had about 3 sips before I completely stopped trying to see if my mind would change. This is not to say others won't enjoy it! Just wasn't for me. I also tried the pistachio croissant and thought it was OK. It's very sweet and a generous portion. Sweet Reserve is new to the Schaumburg area and it has sooo much potential. It fell short for me however I'm hopeful that with a little bit of tweaking and time this can be a cafe that all the locals will enjoy.

Pistachio Croissant
Miranda L.

I had high hopes for Sweet Reserve coming to the Schaumburg area but this was a miss for me. The inside had a main pastry/dessert display, ordering counter, coffee bar, banquet seating, and tables. The aesthetic was very modern with black chairs, globe accent lights, turfed leather, and wood/stone accents. The place feels large but there isn't enough seating offered for the sq footage. They were quite busy for a Friday morning with groups working and coming from the local farmers market. We had to quickly snag a table when entering if we wanted to stay and work. It was disappointing to find out no seats had adjacent outlets to plug in and the wifi was spotty. It was also noted quickly that they were understaffed and not equipped to handle an influx of people. There were three staff members: cash register, coffee bar, food prep. With only (1) available register to take orders, the line grew quickly. I ordered the Rose Cardamom Latte with Oatmilk which felt like mostly milk and lacked noticeable flavors. Iced drinks only come in a 16oz size whereas hot drinks come in 8oz or 12oz options. I also got the pistachio croissant (heated up) which came out luke warm and harder at the ends. None of the items overall impressed me and cost $15 in total. Sweet Reserve has so much potential but my visit unfortunately didn't leave me wanting more.

Buratta Caprese Tartine
Elana K.

Yay, Sweet Reserve is in Schaumburg! Much closer to me than their other location I am familiar with in Lombard. I hope they keep expanding! We stopped in for a cold drink and a tartine one morning. I got the Iced Cinnamon Oat Chai, which was as tasty as what I've previously gotten from their Lombard location. It's sort of reminiscent of a horchata, minus the rice. I also got the Buratta Caprese Tartine, which was beautiful and delicious. The combination of the burrata, balsamic, and sundried tomatoes makes the flavor oh-so craveable. Finally, someone who I assume was the owner walked around with a tray of blueberry desserts for us to sample; it was light and delightful. She let us know she would be leaving the sample tray on the counter, in case we wanted to go back for some more. Now that's some nice hospitality. Overall, great experience here, and glad it is a bit closer to home.

With sandwiches loved their aloo sandwich, mexican twist burger. Twice we have gone there for good family dinner. I feel the only issue I had is with once they allowed me to order food at the counter and pay later and then the second time we were there the guy wanted money upfront I felt like I am not going to runaway. Overall a positive place, good location and perfect desi taste. Will visit them again.

We also had the roasted red pepper spread, which everyone enjoyed. Two of us ordered the Ultimate Steak Sandwich. I opted to removed the caramelized onions. The other person let them on. I also removed the garlic herb sauce but replaced it with a chimichurri sauce. That really kicked it up a notch and was good for dipping the fries in. They're fresh cut fries, so they were good on their own, but the chimichurri again kicked it up a notch. We also ordered the chicken bowl, the avocado salad, and the Greek style lamb chops. We all loved our food and were too full for dessert. It's a quaint little place, cozy for intimate conversation or a night out with family and friends. I think the night was made a little more fun when a couple came in and was seated at a counter height table and were making out all night. It was a lot and gratuitous. The table next to them were visibly uncomfortable and that made it all the more enjoyable to witness. Dinner and a show. Who knew?
