Looking forward to warmer weather so that I can grab an iced shakerato the next time I'm in Elgin.

I tried the Iced Spotted Owl and really enjoyed it--definitely on the sweeter side, but as a hazelnut fan, it hit the spot. The lemon coffee cake bites were a great add-on. Not too heavy, just the right portion for a quick treat alongside a drink. Huge bonus for me: they have a drive-thru, which makes it super convenient when you're on the go. The service was also great: friendly, quick, and made the whole experience even better. And extra points for being dog-friendly! Their pup cup was huge and such a fun surprise. Always love seeing places go the extra mile for customers with pups.

I got one of their winter menu items, which was the Snow Day Cold Coffee. The maple cinnamon cold foam was delicious.

I also tried their vegan chocolate glazed old-fashioned donut. Great spot for meeting with friends or doing work. They have a huge collection of board games to play as well!

It's a decent size coffee shop with a couch and many tables. I ordered their house coffee and a butter pecan scone thing. The coffee was okay. I like the scone flavor but it was pretty dry. If it warmer, moist, and maybe some sugar sprinkled on top, it would have been perfect.

The inside is so charming and cozy and right next to the shop is a cute outdoor seating area. All of Lincoln House's syrups are made in house and it shows. I ordered a Lavender Honey Iced Coffee and added a splash of creamer. The flavors were bright and perfectly floral. They serve Heady Cup Coffee beans which is a local roaster out of McHenry. My husband got a Hot Chai Latte and it was truly the perfect mix of sweet and spiced chai. Lastly, the value in their pricing for quality of drink is very impressive! Both of our drinks were just under $10 which feels very value driven. I would highly recommend stopping out for a morning coffee or trying out one of their evening cocktails!
