I went to this location because I didn't like the selection at the Winfield location. It looked…read morelike yesterday's product that didn't sell, and I got there right when they opened. But, I am reviewing the Lombard location. The selection was good and fresh, although some of their items are a bit pricey. I ordered cake pops, brownies, and a chocolate chip cookie. The sales person was pleasant and quick. This store is their biggest store, and they feed the Winfield and Schaumburg stores. They make their pastries at this location, so you'll probably get the freshest selection at the Lombard location. I had bought a gift card from Costco for Sweet Reserve. I admit if I hadn't bought it, and received a discount at Costco for it, I probably would not have noticed the store. It's in a small strip mall on Roosevelt road which has hundreds of strip malls off the road. The store itself is clean and well kept. It does have a limited selection of products but they were all pretty good. The brownies are very frudgey, just the way I like them. The cake pops are sweet, but a little dry. The cookie has a lot of chips in them. Overall, I liked the place.

Close at 10pm but if you need longer later hours a 1am tea shop is about a quarter mile down the road with good options also. Parking lot with plenty of parking. My highlight is that they have booths. Plenty of tables and seating. Good menu options for lattes, iced, hot, espresso, etc. Reasonable priced and they have 20oz coffee. The service was nice as the girl was kind but she didn't seem to understand me well and she didn't know if the coffee was Turkish or not. Therefore, I ordered an Americano with their homemade pistachio sauce. It was a nice beverage. I also ordered a Turkish bread with ground beef. It too was delicious, hot and fresh. The ambiance is inviting. The pastries and mini to small cake options were quite beautiful. The nose level was very quiet until little ones came in. Still tolerable but if you are studying and it's busy don't forget your headphones. Lol. I studied for about 3 hours and I would definitely return again.

The Dubai Strawberries were delish. My first time having them and I can see why people love them…read more The strawberries were nice and fresh and the pistachio crème and chocolate were smooth and not too sweet.

We got the fruity dose crepe for $16 and I also got taro milk tea with boba for $7. Best advice...DON'T come here for boba! It's probably the worst boba I've tasted in a while. The boba was a little hard and not fresh. I also tasted my daughter's horchata tea with boba and the horchata was grainy and too much cinnamon. But the crepe was delicious so definitely come here for sweet crepes. Service was good and there's plenty of seating. The whole time we were there it was pretty full of customers. My opinion is they should focus on what they're good at and remove the boba from the menu.

Met a family member there for mid morning coffee. She goes there a lot and really likes the place…read more Not overly crowded, nicely decorated, variety of people, some doing computer work, typical type coffeehouse stuff. Had the Mofowar. Tasty, seem like it had a little bit of chocolate on the bottom. I liked it. She had a cappuccino, that that's her usual she enjoyed it very much. We split a piece of Dubai chocolate cake on a recommendation of our barista. It was excellent!!! His service was phenomenal! Pleasant, but not over the top. Kind, yet chill. I didn't catch his name but basically he was a good dude ! This is a nice place to go have a coffee and a little snack with friends. Recommended!

Individuals were very kind and the facility very clean. The options of Lattes, bubble teas, fruit teas, slushies, pastries, desserts, coffee, chai teas, etc. it would be nice if they offered soup as an option with the meat soup. I ordered a Kashmiri Chai... Smooth and balanced with almond milk and pistachios crumbles. It was refreshing but didn't replace my desire for coffee. Lol. So, I later got a small black coffee which was excellent and didn't taste too strong. A variety of dessert options and meat pastries. I was torn between tres leches milk cake or the pistachio. I got the pistachio which was yummy. Just what I needed to feel satisfied without it being too sweet. I spent about 4 hours studying while enjoying my drinks. I would definitely return especially since they stay open to 1am. A late night cozy Tea Cafe experience worth having. I wondered if they dimmed the lights as it gets later? Lol

I've been exploring more Middle Eastern cafés lately, and this one stood out in the best way. I ordered a V60, and honestly it was one of the best cups of coffee I've ever had. You can see the care and attention they put into the process, from the precise brewing to serving it with a small pot so I could enjoy the rest at my own pace. The flavor was incredible, smooth and rich. I also tried the pistachio cheesecake, which was absolutely delicious perfectly balanced. Maybe a bit to much chocolate on topo. The presentation matched the taste, and it paired beautifully with the coffee. The café itself has a wonderful atmosphere thoughtfully decorated and very inviting. You can tell a lot of effort was put into creating a warm, stylish, and welcoming space. Between the excellent drinks, the tasty desserts, and the inviting vibe, I left very satisfied and already looking forward to coming back. Highly recommend Shaghf Café if you're looking for a quality coffee experience!

I didn't realize rainbow cone has been around for nearly 100 years! The interior was bright and welcoming, and the tables and chairs were old fashioned soda fountain style. I enjoyed all the flavors of ice cream. Especially the orange, pistachio, and chocolate. The waffle cone ended up being stale, so I used a spoon to eat the ice cream, and threw the cone away. Next time I'm in town I think I'll try the mint chocolate in a wafer cone!

A solid spot when you're craving something chocolatey and a little extra.

Cocomelt - A Dessert Wonderland Worth Every Bite…read more I'm a devoted fan of glorious, over-the-top desserts, and Cocomelt did not disappoint, not once, but twice. In the past two months I've celebrated here with my sister and my consuegra, and each visit left us happily sugared-up and grinning like kids who discovered the cookie jar wasn't hidden after all. I've worked my way through the FOMO, the Knefeh Pistachio, the Lotus Crêpes, the Pistachio Tiramisu, and the Cocomelt Waffle. Every one of them was indulgent, rich, beautifully made, and absolutely worth the moment of silence you take between bites. This is dessert as an art form, and I am a willing student. Portions are generous enough that both times we left with leftovers, giving us an extra couple of days of sweet happiness. No complaints there. The space itself is expansive and airy. On a weekday afternoon it can feel a bit cold simply because there aren't many customers around, but it's still inviting, light, and modern, a bright place to sit and enjoy something decadent. Service could use a bit more polish and attentiveness, but the quality of the desserts keeps me loyal. And yes, I'll keep coming back... preferably with people who understand the sacred joy of an excellent sugar high.

Ice cream soaked waffle at the end is the ultimate treat! I will definitely come back to try other items on the menu.

Husband's was complex yet scrumptious - the raspberry vanilla swirl alone was a hit! I got a Pumpkin Horchata Latte to go, and this was absolutely fantastic as well, although I would have liked it slightly less sweet. I will, for sure, be returning to this place...my toddler loved it, and so did we! Highly recommended!
