The cutest little coffee shop with tables inside and out for you to sit and enjoy. I got an iced chai, and my husband got one of their fun coffee drinks which I took a few sips of and it was delish! They sell some pastries, and looks like a great place to meet up with folks to chat or put your head down and get work done. Overall we had a great experience and the staff was super friendly when we arrived, and helped make recommendations on things to try while we bopped around town. read more

The space has two entrances, one in the front and another along the side. Walking in through the front, you're immediately greeted by a seating area where people are working, relaxing, or enjoying their coffee. Heading further in, you'll find the ordering counter, and you can even catch a glimpse of coffee beans being roasted, which adds a nice touch to the atmosphere. They offer both a seasonal menu and a straightforward regular menu, making it easy to find something you like. Overall, the environment felt calm and laid-back. The staff were more on the quiet side personally, I'm used to more outgoing baristas, but that's just a matter of preference. read more

My friends and I were looking for a spot for post-lunch coffee and found Five and Hoek. It is a really cute, modern cafe in Wheaton. The building looks like it was converted from a church, and the back seating area has some high stained glass windows. In the middle of the cafe is a narrow hallway/corridor where the supply closet and the single stall bathroom is, so it segments the cafe into two areas, connected by this hallway in the center. The design feels very clearly like a remnant of an old historic building, and a brick alleyway runs along one side. In the space/room where you order (walking through the seating area and through the hallway), it opens up with huge windows and a huge industrial coffee grinder on full display. There's another counter to order, with a few pastry options, and along another side wall, a rack of F&H clothes for purchase and the drink menus. (The aesthetic reminded me of Blue Bottle.) I ordered an iced Whiskey Vanilla Latte with oak milk and it was good! I couldn't taste any whiskey at all, and when I ordered the barista had mentioned this (cooked off so you wouldn't taste it) so it was a decent vanilla latte. I'll give them props for a really cool unique flavor. We all grabbed our drinks and headed (back through the hallway) into the other room with the seating area. There is a small section with a couch, otherwise lots of tables and chairs and I was glad it wasn't too crowded so we were able to grab a table. This was a great spot to grab coffee and meet up with friends. It's in a neat little downtown area in Wheaton, and they offer creative coffee drinks, with beans and merch to purchase. read more

Such a cold day! It was perfect for a hot coffee. As we walked back to our car, we stopped at Five & Hoek. It's larger than it looks. Inside, there's a long hallway of seating. The main area has a coffee grinder (you can watch). The standard drip coffee is sitting in pitcher. The Ethiopian coffee tasted slightly burned. It wasn't horrible, but for $4.50 I was hoping for better flavor. read more

Five & Hoek Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Wheaton, Illinois

Cute coffee shop kind of hidden in the alley of downtown Wheaton. There's no seating inside but there's a few tables outside. They are also connected to Tasty Biscuits which is nice. The staff was friendly and helpful. I ended up getting the horchata latte. The flavor was good, but it was kind of grainy for me and not as smooth. I felt like I couldn't keep my straw all the way at the bottom or all I would get would be the cinnamon/grainy texture. Might have to try s read more

This place had been on my list of places to try for awhile, so decided to stop in and give them a try. At the time of my visits, they offered two kind of roasts for their drip coffee. I went with their El Salvador blend. I found it to be burnt tasting. My husband had the Ethiopian blend. His tasted better to me, but also had a burnt taste. The upstairs seating area was packed and unfortunately guests were spread out so we didn't get a chance to sit down. It was an only ok experience for me. As it appears they change menu often, I would give them another shot when in the area. read more

I wanted to love this place but it was just fine for me. I really like where it's located, in an alley of downtown Wheaton. It reminds me of being in Chicago without city traffic, I dig it! Five and Hoek does not have indoor seating, however, they do have outdoor seating. Plus they are connected to Tasty Biscuits so you're able to grab a coffee then walk through to Biscuits to grab some food and utilize indoor seating there. The staff member that helped me was nice. I was indecisive about what to order and she was patient and helpful. I ended up going with the matcha latte which I enjoyed. Quality of the matcha was great. It was earthy and the real good stuff. Pricing here is on the higher side, my latte ended up being $9 due to an up charge of getting matcha and a non dairy milk. read more

Five & Hoek Coffee Shop has fast, super polite service and really great coffee. The inside has a cute, welcoming vibe, and pricing is comparable to other local coffee spots. I do wish there were a few more menu options, but overall it was a great stop and I'd happily go back. read more

Five & Hoek Coffee - Grinding Area - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Wheaton, Illinois

We wanted to try this local coffee place, but we did not have a pleasant experience. It took forever to order, and then my husband tried to pay cash and they told us they couldn't take cash because it was Labor Day and the banks were closed. I have never heard that a day in my life. My husband wanted to leave, so I paid. I noticed there was a charge for using a credit card (coincidence why they didn't take cash, I guess) and then when I got my flat white, it was like a puppucino size! When I asked about it, they said, "that's the standard size you get in local coffee shops." It's not. The product was not cheap to begin with, then I had to pay a credit card fee, and then got an undersized drink for the price that tasted mid. Management said they would rectify it and never did. This is one of those things where you really want to support local, but then it feels like you're getting robbed when you do. I hate to say it, but I would just go to Starbucks next door. read more

This coffee shop is always really popular. There is always a huge line when I go but it moves pretty quickly. While in line place an online order for sassy biscuit next door. I would add a note that you are in line for the coffee restaurant so they look for you there if needed. It timed out pretty well for me. I tried the whisky vanilla hot latte. It had the perfect amount of sweetness. I would get this again! read more

Five & Hoek Coffee - Always very busy - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Wheaton, Illinois

Pretty solid! Came right before closing around 2:30. There were a few others in line. It's attached to the biscuit place so we sat in there for a bit even though they were closed. I don't think they really have any other seating. I had a creamsicle latte off the summer menu. It was a pretty subtle flavor. I had gone to Dayglow the day before, and they have a similar orangey drink that really set the bar high, and it didn't really measure up to that standard. But it wasn't bad. Not the best coffee I've ever had, but I've heard it's the best in the area. If I'm ever around, I'd come back and give it another shot for sure. read more

Service was moderately quick with other orders in mind, baristas were friendly. Half of the entryway is a storage area not shown in video. Ordered the whiskey vanilla latte, but there not a palette with either flavor read more

The coffee was delicious! So was the chocolate milkshake it was the best one I have ever had! The staff was kind and helped me because it was my first time going here. The inside was cozy and had nice lighting would recommend. read more

Five & Hoek is a cute coffee shop located in a side alley along Main Street in downtown Wheaton. I came on a Saturday morning which was naturally extremely busy. The line was out the door with many other mobile orders also waiting for item pick up. I waited about 20 minutes to order my coffee and another 5-7 to have my items be ready. Why the 3 stars? Staff was hustling to make drinks around; but in turn, the girl helping people order switched to making drinks as I walked up. It becomes self-serve ordering when things get too busy. As a first timer, I had no idea where to find the right drinks on the ipad nor was able to get recommendations. On top of that, the chai was a bit too sweet for my preference and Whiskey Vanilla iced coffee wasn't anything I'd rave about. Maybe I ordered the wrong items but didn't love my experience enough to wait in line again. read more

Small shop, great coffee!! No seating and very minimal bakery options, so it is mostly a place to grab and go! It is attached to the sassy biscuit. You can enter through sassy biscuit, or go directly through the alley to enter the coffee shop. Large and small hot coffee options, one size only for cold coffees. Seasonal offerings! read more

Lovely coffee shop tucked into the alley with a little sign that points you off the main road so don't miss it! Has some seating outside. The staff are lovely and very patient. They have a roasting machine in house and also sell their own products including beans, kombucha, accessories/swag. I'm a fan of the aesthetics. The menu includes classic coffee options and some specific tea variety. They also had a seasonal menu and they all seemed very warm and interesting, some of which were alcoholic! I really wanted to try the BANANAS but they were out so I went with campfire cap which turned out to be a perfect pick me up for a cold afternoon with a nice marshmallow to end on. The campfire cap was smooth and felt like something between a mocha and a cortado. The espresso was rich and the chocolate wasn't too sweet, but the drink still felt foamy and light. I thought the marshmallow would melt into the drink more but I ended up taking small nibbles between sips. read more

Came in on a rainy day for some lattes and cappuccino. I got a iced bourbon latte and it was delicious but next time I will get it hot. My son got a chocolate shake and he enjoyed it even though a had a strawberry taste. My wife had the salted beer caramel hot and she enjoyed it but she thought it would have the nice design on top but it didn't and was served in a to go cup. My youngest son got a cappuccino but was upset because it was very little in the to go cup but the cappuccino was excellent. The girl who help us was nice. The place was on the side of the building or you can go in through the biscuit place. read more

It is a cute place in a quirky location, but I imagine when construction is done it will have great flow. The line literally was out the door. I wanted to have a coffee that was memorable when I ordered the salted caramel coffee. Instead it was warm milk. Not sure what it was suppose to taste like, but it fell very flat of even a good coffee. Staff talked a lot amongst themselves and with customers. It has a very local vibe and it might be worth trying but stick to something simple. read more

I wish I could have rated the coffe but I didn't even get it. I waited in that coffee shop for an hour and never got my coffee, it was a simple order and I watched everyone around me slowly file out that came BEFORE me. it's absurd and it's probably not the employees but they're sorting machine for orders is awful. If you want to wait ages for your morning caffeine then go right ahead. Again not bashing the employees but the managers or someone needs to make this a faster process! read more

The staff is always friendly. The manager, Adam is a fantastic model of professionalism, customer service and empathy for his team. The coffee is outstanding, I am truly sad when I can't make it in for a cup and a hello read more

Gotta say that I love great coffee and lattes. I like a good coffee that strikes a balance between its tasting notes and bitterness. For lattes, I like if the pure espresso flavor to compliment the flavors instead of being erased by them. This establishment so far has met those expectations. My go-to has been the whiskey vanilla latte, but everything else I have tried has been fantastic. My first trip here was actually part of my overall birthday as well, and it started my day off right. Service has been great here as well. The staff were friendly and helpful when asking for recommendations. Each time I have been, it was busy, so I did wait for a bit, but nothing excessive. I absolutely recommend this place for fans of coffee. They also have a nice biscuit place next door, but they are always sold out when I go. read more

The sister breakfast joint is done! It's called Biscuits? Sassy biscuits? Something involving biscuits (and it was packed). Check out their spring seasonal menu the KLP latte (pictured) was delightful. read more

Tucked away in a little alley in downtown Wheaton, we discovered this coffee shop after having lunch in town. The coffee shop offers a variety of coffees and teas all staged to go. It's connected to a shop upfront, called Sassy biscuits, which wasn't open the day we went but offers seating for the coffee shop as well as for the little restaurant. Looking at that menu I'd love to come back and try some thing there as well. read more

Nice coffee shop in Wheaton downtown. I tried their Columbia black coffee which was amazing. The staff is friendly and warm. There is plenty of parking on the street and also there is a public parking garage nearby. The ambiance is great, they even have big coffee roast machine on one side of the store. I would definitely recommend this place! Must try! read more

Away in an alley is this small place to get smoothies and coffee. Five & Hoek has some good tasting and good for you drinks. It unfortunately also has very high prices. Certainly it can be good but not that much. This also amazingly for a coffee shop is missing seating. Having tried some of the coffee before I can say it's average. It's higher than average in one area and that's in price. This just isn't worth all that. Last time I got a smoothie. This was the Immune Boost, one that's supposed to make you feel better supposedly. It's $8.25 for a regular. This is made with carrots, coconut water, ginger, hemp seeds, kiwi, lemon juice, orange, parsley, tahini, and turmeric. Certainly there's a lot in it. Maybe too much. It explains the high prices when all that's going in. Try keeping these a little simpler and it may be much cheaper for these. Even though it's a coffee shop it doesn't feel like one all that much. If you're complaining that people sit around in coffee shops too much you'll love this. There's no seating inside whatsoever. read more

Always busy. Great coffee. Delicious syrup flavors. Love this little downtown gem. Catch them at the Wheaton Farmer's Market too.

This cute little coffee shop is a hidden gem! I say hidden because it's in an alley in downtown Wheaton. I got the beer salted carmel iced coffee. It was to die for. They have so many unique types of flavors here and it is so cute inside. They do not have indoor seating, but outside they have tables where you can go. The service is great here. The one cashier was so patient with me as it was my first time there. Although, I didn't try the pastries they looked delicious. Highly recommend coming to this place! read more

This place deserves to be on an Eater guide. It's easily one of the best coffee shops in the west suburbs, up there with a Sparrow in my book. The service is well worth the wait. The vibe is relaxed, sometimes crowded on the weekend. The coffee is outstanding and it's nice they're partnered with sassy biscuit on the food front and have a somewhat shared space. A lovely place that I could not recommend more! read more

Located in an alley is this coffee shop. On a Sunday afternoon, there was a steady flow of customers, but this is take out only and there is no seating which is unfortunate. I tried the HIgh Five Latte, it had a touch of cinnamon and cocoa. The cinnamon was not very strong and could have been a bit stronger. My husband tried the Salted Beer Carmel Latte. I tried it and it did not have a slated taste. The espresso was smooth and not bitter. The staff were pleasant, read more

Cool coffee shop I found on route to Midway. We popped in to grab a quick drink to get us going for the day but sadly it wasn't quick at all. We waited a good 15 minutes for our order which was stressing me out since we had to drop off our rental and then get through airport security. Thankfully my drink order was delicious. Definitely worth a stop if in the area especially if you're not on any schedule! read more

I stopped here on my way home from the Cosley Museum with my daughter. The inside was packed on a Tuesday evening with little room to move. The coffee shop is located in the back of Sassy Biscuit and you can enter through there. Also, there is a main entrance off the alleyway just past Sassy Biscuits. They have a sign sticking out of their door, so it isn't hard to spot in the alleyway. I got the almond Vanilla latte. It was delicious. The flavor was sweet which balanced the robust coffee creating a very pleasant taste. I also ordered the blueberry scone. This was super dry and more sweet than tart. It wasn't bad, but I definitely didn't think it was worth the price.I'd probably skip it next time. The girls behind the counter were super nice and sweet. I'd absolutely come here again for the coffee. read more

Such a cool spot! It is situated to evoke a calm vibe. I had a top notch pumpkin muffin and soothing tea. Then I simply sat and conversed with the people around me.
