    My family and I visited this location on Saturday, June 13 to enjoy dessert and try something different while we were in the area. We had been nearby earlier in the day and decided to return later specifically to check out their dessert menu. The restaurant is located in the Park West area and is one of the newer dessert spots in the neighborhood. It is surrounded by several other businesses, including The Vig, Lazy Bird, and other restaurants and shops, making it a great stop after dinner or an evening out. Parking is available throughout the area. There is parking in front of the businesses, although some spots may have time restrictions. If you plan to stay longer, there is additional parking available behind the buildings, which offers plenty of space and convenience. The menu offers a variety of sweet treats, including crepes, waffles, ice cream, acai bowls, specialty drinks, and more. Prices generally range around $10 and up depending on your selections and add-ons. For our visit, we ordered: * Blueberry Almond Crepe with added ice cream * Oreo Waffle with ice cream * Oreo Crepe with ice cream Adding ice cream was a $2 upcharge, bringing most of our desserts to approximately $15 each. While the desserts can be a bit pricey, the portions were very generous and filling. Many of the items are large enough to share with another person if you're looking to save money or reduce calories. The Blueberry Almond Crepe was delicious, and the added ice cream complemented it perfectly. The Oreo Waffle came topped with chocolate, whipped cream, Oreo pieces, and two scoops of ice cream, creating a fun and indulgent dessert. The Oreo Crepe was equally satisfying and packed with flavor. Everything was made fresh to order, and we appreciated that the staff brought our desserts directly to our table after calling our name. The presentation was excellent, and each dessert arrived in attractive serving containers. The interior décor was one of our favorite aspects of the visit. The restaurant has a modern, upscale, and luxurious feel with beautiful flooring, comfortable seating, stylish tables, and a welcoming atmosphere that makes it a great place to sit, relax, and enjoy a sweet treat. One helpful tip for customers is to sign up for the rewards program. You can enter your phone number and receive a text message to complete the registration process. Earning points on purchases is always a great benefit. One suggestion we would love to see in the future is additional promotions or loyalty rewards throughout the week. Family visits can become expensive, especially for groups of three or more. Special offers, punch-card rewards, or discounts after a certain number of purchases would be a wonderful addition for loyal customers. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our visit. The desserts were fresh, flavorful, generously portioned, and beautifully presented. Combined with the attractive atmosphere and friendly service, it made for a very enjoyable experience. We will definitely be back again for another sweet treat.

    Awesome place. Very clean and very well lit. The cashier greeted us right away. He asked if this is our first time? And how did we discover this place? It was our first. They have loyalty rewards if you give your phone number. My daughter found it through TikTok. My hubby ordered a mango and banana smoothie. They used very fresh ingredients. SIL had Green energy. It had Kale, pineapple and I forgot the other ingredients. He enjoyed it. My daughter had the lotus butter cookie crepe. She loves it. I had the white chocolate sauce with raspberries crepe. I have to admit, it was too sweet. My crepe had layers of the whites chocolate and then a thick layer on top. Next time I will have them put half the amount of white chocolate. It's a cool place to meet up with friends.

    We got the Oreo and Aruba mini pancakes. They're so adorable and warm when they come out. The fruit is a nice addition to the sweetness of the toppings. I think they both had the same drizzle except the Oreo had cookie crumbles and the other fruit. The prices are a bit high but def worth it for the occasional sweet treat. The cafe itself was very brightly lit. There was a line but it did move quick and the wait for our order wasn't bad.

    I seen people with colorful drinks around the area and I had asked where they got these drinks. I had to stop by and check it out. The owner was nice and helpful and explained to me the drink menu. The drinks are all made with natural fruit and they also have other things to eat. I decided to get a strawberry banana smoothie and it was delicious. It wasn't super sweet or tasted artificial. It really tasted fresh and it was delicious. I would check them out they definitely have other things on their menu that I didn't try but looked great. The vibe inside was great reminded me of something tropical setting definitely give them a try support family own businesses!

    Açai bowl
    Christopher W.

    Aruba is definitely what the park west area needed. The best espresso. All the bowls are amazing and super fresh, when found out there is no added sugar I was hooked. The protein shakes are just what you need after the gym. Ester is amazing, always super helpful and a pleasure to go see. Super inviting place to hang out And they stay open later now to late night sweets craving.

    Your basic acai bowl wasn't to impressed with the taste of the smoothie but overall clean restaurant definitely would be back for the acai bowls

    Delicious smoothie

    Delicious mid day treat! They have crepes, waffles, and pancakes that are LOADED. They also have smoothies and coffee. Grab a friend and SHARE a treat portions are huge!

    So glad we came to check this place out for their treats! The mini pancakes were really good! I would stop by again.

    We went in on Saturday 05/02 around 1pm and one of the owners (Ace) was as the register. He greeted us and helped us with any questions we had or guidance we needed to decide what to get. We don't live too far, but it's still a 20 minute drive, so we wanted to try out a few different items while there. We ended up getting a "peach time" smoothie, "banana nut" iced latte, "dubai chocolate" mini pancakes and "white chocolate raspberry" crepe. Every single item was a hit. The smoothie was the perfect blend of all flavors and each one came through with none over powering the other. The coffee was well balanced with sweetness and had an amazing taste. The crepe was amazing. Soft, gooey, light with melted white chocolate drizzle coating the top and paired with fresh raspberries. And lastly, the dubai chocolate mini pancakes. Perfect bite size flavor bombs to end the lineup. You really can't go wrong with any of them and I imagine that applies to their entire menu. I will absolutely be returning so I can make my way through the menu and try everything out. Everything was made and brought out to us within 10 minutes of ordering. The other owner (Ace) served us our food and was very nice. He sat and talked to us for a few minutes and explained that they use all organic fruits and eventually hoping to franchise out! Establishment was simple, clean, and well put together with nice seating. Hoping for continued success for this duo. They've got something great building and I'm excited to see them flourish!

    Before I started my long road trip back to Southern California, I stopped by this coffee shop to…read moreget a little pick-me-up for the drive. Driftwood is a small shop in an unassuming area. Peoria seems like a nice place to be, and this is a great representation. It's a tiny coffee shop that exists on the corner of a small street. Great vibes when you walk in, and the staff is friendly and warm. I ordered a short iced latte and waited for the drink to be made. Lotsa folks around getting their day started, or doing some work for the day. The energy was perfect, and my coffee arrived promptly. I gave it a sip and went on my way. The coffee was not bad, but pretty much unremarkable in that regard. I enjoyed it as a sipping coffee, but it was a little too dark on the roast for me. Not their fault, as they're a multiroaster. Overall, I think it's a great place to grab a coffee, and especially if you like flavored drinks! Perhaps a mocha or a vanilla latte would slap! Come here for a nice slow morning or if you want a mood boost!

Thanks to these amazing folks at…read moredriftwood they have a place that offers you at least 2 of the three while the good folks rejuvenating downtown Peoria attempt to do just what was done in phoenix out west. Clean space to work or relax, friendly faces, tasty home made treats, games, a small rack of vintage clothing options, and above all some amazing coffee. Please swing in and continue to pour back local and help bring another part of our amazing valley onto the scene for all to enjoy
