    A new cafe in town! With lots of food and coffee options. we ordered the vegetarian, avocado smash, the blaken crepe and couple smoothies. My 1 year old love their avocado chocolate smoothie. I think it looked like a family own restaurant everyone more involved and felt homely. They call out your name and deliver food to your table. Positive vibes place. :)

    Finally got a chance to come back and try some of the food. It was good! My husband and I shared a mocha latte--it was huge. Coffee was strong enough and not too weak, and it wasn't overly sweet! Just right. Would order it again. He got the croque madame and it had this lovely béchamel sauce. I got the prosciutto tartine and it was nice and savory paired with a sweet fig jam and balsamic, which gave it just the best sweet and salty combo. Felt like a huge portion too. Yes, a bit on the pricier side but I would say worth it. Definitely not too much table and seating though, so it's probably best to go during an off-time or order to go. But definitely want to try more from the menu!

    I am absolutely obsessed with this cafe! My Meetup group met here for our monthly book club, and there was plenty of seating outdoors, with a few spots inside as well. You can rent out a private space in the cafe for meetings, which we had attempted to do, but no one ever responded to my inquiry ... hence the 4 out of 5 stars. Two Libras Cafe is tucked away on a quieter street with sidewalk seating during the warmer months, with parking right out front. I ordered the Mango Madness smoothie and the Smashed Avocado, both were fresh and tasted amazing. The presentation was on point and their cafe cups added to the aesthetic. I am looking forward to visiting again the next time I'm in the area!

    Turkish Coffee

    This is the absolute cutest little space for a coffee! I love it! Having just returned from Antalya, Turkey I can authenticate that this coffee is as Turkish as it can get! The grounds are still at the bottom of the cup and the flavor is deep and magnificent in a way that American coffee is decidedly not! Their pastries are just the right size for something sweet to offset the coffee experience and the service is friendly and conversational. Nice place and I'll be back regularly!

    From the moment I walked in, the staff were incredibly welcoming and genuinely friendly, which always makes such a difference. I opted for the salted caramel latte, and it was absolutely heavenly perfectly balanced and truly delicious, a real treat. Beyond the fantastic coffee, I was really impressed by how spotlessly clean everything was, which always makes for a more pleasant experience. You also have such an amazing and diverse selection of pastries, it was actually quite hard to choose just one. It's also fantastic to see you offer a wider range of sugar free options than many other places, which is a thoughtful touch for those who appreciate it. The overall ambiance of the place is just wonderful. It's incredibly relaxing, making it a perfect little escape. I particularly loved the stylish and cozy decor, it really adds to the inviting atmosphere.

    OBSESSED with this mother and son owned cafe! Everything about it surpassed my expectations. To start - two libras cafe is well designed. It's modern, clean and has a lot of natural lighting. Seating is plentiful and comfy. The entire space is perfect for photo ops. If you're looking to huddle up with a laptop there are plenty of outlets at each table. Throughout my time there was music playing that wasn't too quiet or too loud. Parking is also easy, plentiful and FREE. This was my first time having turkish coffee and a burek. The son (I don't remember his name) informed me of how the coffee was made. He also let me know the spices will be plentiful towards the bottom and to be careful not to shot gun it towards the end, haha. The burek was DELICIOUS. I went with the cheese 1 and had it warmed up. The dough was fluffy and light while the cheese was creamy and rich. I really enjoyed this pastry and am looking forward to many more coffee outings here.

    This little cafe is a hidden gem! My sister and I have been meeting for coffee every Saturday morning for about 6 months., The space is a cozy, and the coffee, food and service are always outstanding. The diverse menu makes it difficult to choose what I want every time! I have enjoyed everything I've tried. Alex is such a friendly barista and always serves with a smile. The entire family is so friendly and welcoming. I hope to continue to enjoy this cafe for a long time!

    We all know I am a coffee lover! Well this past weekend, I had some friends in town and wanted to find a cute little place for us to all meet up! I absolutely did! Two Libras is the perfect spot for a friendly meet up, coffee date, or casual breakfast or lunch! Although I didn't try the food this time everything looked incredible as it was coming out to the other patrons! I am eager to go back so that I can try the food! That being said the coffee was magnificent. They offer almost every iteration you could think of of traditional coffee drinks and an abundance of flavors to add, if you're feeling adventurous! I absolutely loved the mugs that they use! You'll see them in my photos! There are several comfy two-person seating options. As well as a three seat high top table near the bakery case. There are also several two top seating options at tables and a small room in the back with a four top and an additional two top! There's lots of great outdoor seating too! The staff is super friendly and super accommodating and the overall Vibe is just very cozy and welcoming! I will definitely be coming back. Might even dare to say that this could become my new local spot!

    Medium iced caramel macchiato
    Connie H.

    New coffee shop/breakfast place that just opened last week! Cute little shop with nice decor. Would be a great place to work remotely, but when I came, it was pretty packed. People were eating sit-down breakfast foods there, which by the way looked SO good. I'm ready to come back another time to try their breakfast foods. The plated breakfast foods looked good enough for this to be considered a breakfast restaurant, but there aren't really enough tables. More of a small coffee shop/cafe setting. Ordering took a little bit of time, but I'm sure things will speed up once they get a hang of things (since they just opened up). My drink was made immediately though. Ordered an iced caramel macchiato with oat milk. Tasted great (I'd get it again). My only disappointment was with the addition of oat milk, it came out to be $2 more than it listed on the menu. I looked at my receipt, and apparently ice costs 50 cents too. I will definitely be back again to try their breakfast foods!

    Great cafe located in downtown Palatine! Their menu has a great mix of coffees smoothies, and food items (both sweet and savory). The cafe is very conducive for working or catching up with friends. They had a mix of table and chairs near outlets as well as lounge seats. I ordered the salted caramel latte and chocolate croissant which I thoroughly enjoyed! Staff were very kind and helpful when asking about the menu items and for the wifi password. Would definitely come back to enjoy more!

    Food and lattes were tasty. My friend and I sat at an outdoor table, which was still charming despite the concrete.

I came here on a hot summer day after dining for lunch outside at a restaurant nearby. If I would have known earlier about this place, I would have saved some room to try their acai bowls. Parking - lots of free parking near Outdoor walk through option available for those that have dogs and want to order / pick up from outside. Atmosphere - great to come hangout with friends, family or by yourself to get some work / reading done. Washroom - the toilets don't flush well and it wasn't the most clean washroom I've seen.. Costs - ranges from $5.99-$13+ depending on what you order.. may be costly for a drink but it's yummy & fresh fruit! Handcrafted bowls, breakfast bowls, smoothies to wellness shots Pink Flamingo Smoothie ($8.59 small / $10.59 regular) - the smoothie isn't only pretty in color but also tastes great! It is healthy with its mixture of fruits and not too sweet, just right on sweetness level (doesn't tastes like those drinks loaded with sugar)..if you like extremely sweet drinks maybe ask for more agave nectar added I'll be back to try their acai bowls if I'm in the area

    What an incredible operation! Great menu, lots of options, high quality ingredients, GF options…read more(yay for me!), and facility is clean and inviting. Not sure if it was the owner who gave me a sample of the peanut butter granola and peanut butter chia pudding, but it was a perfect helping just "to try" and, wow, but my heart was warmed when a person of need walked into the place and she she handed him a banana. It was clear that the interaction was routine, but she had no problem giving him something to eat and it made me so joyous to see such a charitable thing. She also spoke to him like a person, not as someone that would be less because he has less. Clearly this place is run by a good person too. Bonus: the young man behind the counter made a little too much for my small smoothie so upgraded my size at no charge. Thank and God bless!

While I was waiting for my smoothies, I sat down at a table and noticed there was a used Band-Aid stuck to it. Absolutely disgusting. The floors were dirty, and the overall cleanliness of the store gave me second thoughts about ordering. Unfortunately, the smoothies weren't any better. They tasted off, almost like they were made with dirty water. I spent $33 on smoothies for my family and then asked for a cup of water with ice. I was told I would have to pay for it. After spending that much money, that was just the icing on the cake. Between the cleanliness issues, the poor-tasting smoothies, and the lack of customer service, I won't be coming back. I'm honestly surprised this location is still open.

Thanks for taking my 36$ on 3 smoothies same flavor. I'll never spend not even one penny at this place again. I called to let them know and the girl that answered was clueless I told her my drinks weren't labeled to know which is which her response was we don't label the drinks. Okay so how do people differentiate the drinks! She didn't offer a refund wouldn't let me speak with the store manager didn't even offer an apology. Jamba Juice is just YUCK
