I've gone to Glenview Grind a number of times, but usually via the drive-through. I love independent coffee shops, including this one! I ordered a soy latte and asked for a ceramic mug since I was staying inside their establishment this time. There's plenty of seating; they really pack it in there and utilize every space. This coffee shop really has a community field to it. The beverage was made well and tasted great. The staff were very friendly and helpful. My only complaint is that I wish they had vegan options for food. read more

Glenview Grind - Cafe soy latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Glenview, Illinois

Nice outdoor patio with street views. Visited this restaurant on a Monday morning and did not have to wait long for my order. The Canadian bacon egg and cheese breakfast sandwich on an English muffin was decent but, it will not be something that I will be craving. I ordered a 12 ounce bulldog coffee to go with my sandwich. The bulldog coffee is coffee with espresso. I said yes to the cream and sugar and it was still pretty strong. The coffee and the sandwich cost me $12.15. read more

I love this place! I've been many times and every single time the coffee has always been excellent. My favorite is the peanut butter cup, but recently I tried the pistachio dream (I think that's the name, pistachio with chocolate). It's a very cute and cozy cafe that always seems to be busy and bustling. They have a little library where you can grab a book and sip on your coffee. Everyone is always friendly and helpful with questions. Lovely local coffee shop to check out! read more

Great place to get a cup of Latte! Price isn't too bad for coffee. Nice jazz plays in the background. Cozy, clean and good vibe. One thing I was a little bit surprised was how expensive the little cake pop was!!! $7 per cake pop! I decided not To buy it since that was way expensive for one little thing. Starbucks sells a little cheaper than this place. Overall nice place to have coffee. read more

Yaaaaaayyyy, a coffee shop with a drive through! I never realized how much I needed something like this until I had a small child who can be fussy if I try to repeatedly remove and return her to her car seat. The drive through isn't obvious at first because it's not fully open but instead covered by a sort of walkway in the building. Anyway, the drinks are solid. I got a chai, my usual, and was happy with it. The service was friendly. They have some treats on their menu as well, which I might try at some point. I'm looking forward to visiting again. read more

This is a busy, cozy place by the train station. I parked on the street facing the tracks which is permit only, but M-F, and it happened to be a S, so we're good. I ordered a lavender London Fog and an almond croissant, which they warmed up for me. This is a fun place -- I saw Taylor Swift cookies (it was around the release of TTPD) -- not really a fan but I applaud the effort. Also, I saw a stack of books to read and I saw not one, but two, Georgette Heyer books. If you are a Regency fan, or even a Bridgerton fan, GH is more JA than JA. I digress. The lavender London Fog was perfect. The almond croissant was enormous but had more sweet filling than required, and tasted a little unnatural, though it was crispy and flaky. I will stop by again for the great drinks and fun vibes. read more

Glenview Grind is an absolute neat place nestled in downtown Glenview. Between the friendly and attentive staff, the variety of good drink options, and the locally sourced goods and market, Glenview Grind has a great mixture of items for everyone. What I specifically really enjoyed were the outstanding prices for the quality you get. Supporting a local place and having better prices than other coffee places, makes this a go-to spot. For me, I was able to try the cold brew coffee with caramel, which was not what I had originally ordered. They were out of cold foam, but quickly offered other options at no additional charge. I should also mention just how cool their fall flavors were, with some more original ideas I have seen compared to other places. I cannot wait to go back and try another flavor and maybe even get a pastry too! read more

Cutest suburban coffee shop! We went during December, so it was decorated beautifully for the holidays! Both my husband and my lattes were made perfectly with zero modifications, which I feel is so hard to find lately, and service was super sweet. We didn't utilize the drive thru because we had time to kill, but I imagine that's the best feature on a busy weekday morning! Overall, so pleased with glenview grind! Would absolutely become a staple for me. read more

Love the coffee and they have the best avocado toast. You are always greeted by friendly staff.

Such a cute little shop! The ladies up front were so kind. I ordered an iced vanilla oat milk latte and it was the perfect balance. You can tell the coffee grounds are legit and good quality! We also tried the croissant and bagel breakfast sandwiches which were pretty good! read more

Great location! as a heads up, I never give a coffee shop a 5/5 unless they have a pour over (and are great). Glenview grind is great but they don't have a pour over. They do use nice beans and have nice food options. It's in a nice location with things to do near by. They have nice lattes and the drip coffee is nice too! The Avocado toast is amazing as well! Parking was easy on the street, seating on the inside was nice. TVs setup and all. read more

Starting with the people, the Glenview Grind is a great place to go for coffee and a bite to eat. Their team is friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. They have a good selection of pastries, as well as some specials like Tim's special breakfast. Their avocado toast is the best! Whether you drive through for convenience or choose to settle into one of the comfortable spots inside (or outside in the summer!), you won't be disappointed! read more

NGL, I was a little underwhelmed by this place. I've been on a matcha latte journey, so I've been ordering that everywhere lately. The menu didn't specify that this doesn't come sweetened, though I probably shouldn't have assumed either. I also felt like the iced matcha latte was too warm. I had to ask the cashier to pour my drink into a larger cup with more ice. They were very nice to do that and offered to sweeten it with some vanilla syrup. They do have a ton of seating indoors along with some cozy chairs. There's also a few outdoor tables and chairs too. read more

Charming place in the middle of downtown to get coffee and breakfast items. Glenview Grind is more than just coffee and eating though. It's where to go if you're looking to catch up. Find old friends here or meet someone you haven't already. The place is kind of crowded, especially in the morning and weekends, which should be obvious. A convenient location is one of the best things about it. It's close to the Metra Station. The coffee is the main thing. Even so, there's lots more. There's breakfast and lunch sandwiches. It's about $4 for a small coffee. The Matcha Green Tea Latte is a favorite. Choose from a few milk types including non dairy choices. Oatmeal is one of the breakfast options. It's about $3.75 for a bowl. This comes with choice of milk and toppings. Best place to get breakfast in Glenview. It gets busy of course but it also has a relaxing charm about it. The breakfast time is busiest but there's also sandwiches for lunch and whenever. read more

E When in Glenview, this is my go-to cafe. The smoothies ..yum! The coffee...double yum! The avocado bread...triple yum! And if you're under the weather, the healing latte is exactly what you need! read more

Loved my drink AND my sammy. I had full intentions of returning and trying MORE things from both the beverage menu and food selections - but Covid... However, what I did like was my drink had the perfect mix of function (coffee) and decadence (chocolate) and topping. The food was fresh, flavorful, yummy. If I'm back that way I'd stop in again. And if you're out there, swing by & give them a try. And try as many things as possible (in my honor)! read more

If you're a coffee lover this coffee shop is a must-visit! The coffee here is nothing short of amazing rich, flavorful, and brewed to perfection. The ambiance is cozy and welcoming, making it a great spot to relax or get some work done. The staff is knowledgeable and passionate, always ready to recommend a new brew! read more

Friendly service and nice variety of offerings for breakfast or lunch. Had the drip dark roast coffee that was okay, but with it enjoyed a blueberry scone that was exceptional. Great chew and super moist and it probably made the coffee better than it was alone. Sitting outside on a nice day, there's two outdoor seating locations, one along the somewhat busy and noisy Glenview Ave vs. The quieter one adjacent to the building in the parking lot. Very dog and child friendly. Nice place to hold a small book club. read more

I've followed Glenview Grind on Instagram for several years but today was my first visit. I wasn't far from here and had a novel with me I wanted to finish reading so I carpe-ed the coffee. I was pleasantly surprised at how easy parking was. So many other suburbs have created three-ring circuses out of street parking, but Glenview Grind has a lot adjacent to the building. There's enough space that the Glenview Fire Department easily parked a truck there without blocking anyone else in while a few of their crew popped in for drinks. The customer in front of me took his time ordering, which was great for me so I could peruse the menu boards. While I'm generally faithful to my vanilla oat milk lattes, especially when evaluating a new-to-me coffee shop, the Frango Mint caught my eye so I ran with that. The pastries in the case looked really good but I refrained this time. They serve food as well - the customer in front of me had a conversation about the chicken salad - and a selection of bottled/canned beverages including hard seltzer and local beers (I saw that Sketchbook label...). I was bummed by the lack of cozy seating. There's a small area of leather chairs but those were taken so I nabbed a seat at a table. It wasn't terribly uncomfortable, but I would have loved to stumble upon a coffee shop with comfy seats for reading or visiting with friends. It appears my generation left those in the 90s (or we were severely misled by Central Perk)... The interior felt like cluttercore in the best way with strings of Christmas lights hanging across the ceiling (that may be seasonal?) and a variety of t-shirts, mugs, and other merch available for sale. My drink was good - a nice balance of mint and chocolate. The espresso didn't pop through the I would have hoped, but I did choose to order a dessert-like drink so that's on me. Like other reviewers, I wish my drink was served in a ceramic, reusable mug. I'm sure I'll be back. I'd like to try some of the pastries or food, and overall, it was a good experience. And I finished my book, so it met expectations for being able to churn through the last 85 pages of a best seller while caffeinating. read more

The iced hazelnut latte with oat milk was absolutely amazing! I would recommend this place to anyone!

I love this place so much! They serve breakfast items and pastries here but I really come here for the coffee. I especially love enjoying the iced Frango mint latte on their patio. Great place to get some work done and enjoy some fresh air--with wonderful coffee! read more

Coffee was terrible for the price and ordered a berry smoothie that had zero fruit in it, tasted as if they put jam in the smoothie full of sugar. read more

Great coffee, great vibe, great service. Perfect location for a coffee place too!!!. Down-town Glenview, close to train station.

Love the drive through! Great smoothies! I get a custom blend and they do a fantastic job! Staff is super accommodating and friendly. Salads are fresh and yummy. read more

It's always a great experience when I visit the area. The coffee is good, the service is quick, and the bakery is a nice little treat.

The worst sausage, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich. This is not a fresh made to order sandwich. It came with a circular slice of a dry pre made egg patty that had no flavor/salt and half a slice of cheese. Not even a full egg or full slice of cheese on a breakfast sandwich. It was served to me lukewarm and the egg patty was ice cold. I can't believe they serve this, let alone charge $7 for it. read more

Stopped by to do some work, it was bright because of the big windows which helped bring good energy to the start of my work day. Baristas were friendly . I ordered a really good honey turmeric tea that you can asked to be served in a pot. The place was buzzing and busy, all good signs of good product offerings . read more

Great atmosphere and staff. Family owned. Excellent selection. Most meals made on-site with creative touches.

I am a huge fan of local cute coffee shops because they have such a unique taste compared to Starbucks and Dunkin, and I like supporting local business. This turned out to be an amazing gem for me. They have plenty of specialty flavors, and I tried the iced Nutella latte that was absolutely delicious. Some places who put Nuella in their coffee make it WAY TOO RICH, but this place gets the perfect amount mixed in. I would literally drive 30 minutes from my house just to get this again because the flavor quenched my thirst. The only annoying this was that they didn't stir it up to make the coffee cold. My iced coffee was still warm until I mixed it myself... kinda weird taste when it's lukewarm lol. They also sell smoothies, which my boyfriend loved the Wildberry flavor, and they also sell some doughnuts, ice cream, and food. This place would be cute to just sit and relax, and they also have an outdoor patio. read more

I've traveled the world & all the States in the US. This was more like a cafe than a coffee shop. My wife & I ordered two cold brew coffee's and we asked a few questions to the cashier. She did not know the answer. Then they never asked our names & didn't have a drink sticker identifying our drinks. After a long wait & many customers confused around us our drinks came out incorrectly. I asked the Barista and she looked at me like I was from a different planet. The place had no clue about customer service. We finally received our drinks and after one sip we tossed them in the garbage. They were the worst tasting cold brews we have ever had. The shop was cluttered and didn't have a good vibe. read more

Very very cute shop. Very chill atmosphere. Good music. Suuuper friendly staff!! We got the avocado toast that is made with maybe the BEST nut-free pesto I have ever had. Toast was crispy and everything tasted very fresh. Also got a warmed cheese Danish and chocolate chip muffin. Both were so satisfying and not intensely sweet. We also got 2 of the specialty drinks, 24 oz blended, thrilla vanilla latte and caramel fantasia. Both drinks were absolutely refreshing and phenomenal. Local. Independent and family owned. They are definitely doing something (well a lot of things lol) right!! Check them out!!! read more

I was on a mission to find a doughnut to dip in some delicious hot coffee and I found exactly what I was looking for. Parking: In the back, street parking and down the street if needed. Had n no problem. Seating: There was lots of seating there on a Saturday​, but I ended up sitting on the stools near the windows. Doughnuts: I was told that these are from Bennison's Bakery in Evanston. Got my fix with an Ube doughnut which was a nice surprise with purple inside. Coffee: I got their House coffee, which from the website is described as a medium roast from Columbia. Loved it. I usually drink coffee black. Looking forward to coming back! Seems like a great place to study, do some work or read a book (close to Glenview Library.) read more

My wife and I stopped in for breakfast one morning while in town. The food and drinks were fine. They were good, but nothing that stood out to me.

Overall it was a fine little shop but nothing I'd go out of my way to visit. read more
