This is our second visit to this cute and quaint little tea house in Downers Grove. My daughter,…read moreher friend and her friend's mom and I do an annual tea day. We were a party of four, one who is gluten-free and one who is vegetarian. They had no problem accommodating our dietary restrictions and the food was absolutely delicious. We all had different teas, and again they were all very flavorful. The Christmas decor was just so perfect. They have several items for sale, such as jams and so forth. They also had a few Christmas tea pots for sale. One was so cute I could not resist and bought my daughter an extra Christmas gift. The owner/chef came out to talk to us for just a few minutes. She explained that this was their 24th year! Amazing. She also stated that she travels and often the recipes she makes for the tea house are inspired by these trips. I believe the menu is changed every month. Our server, Gilbert was great. Very helpful and also described each delicious food item on our plate. Be sure to get reservations if you plan to visit. Absolutely love this place! Can't say enough great things about it.

I don't remember her game but the barista is always so sweet to me and she always makes my drink perfectly even when I ask her to make a cold foam she's never made before! I do feel is a little pricey when it comes to the bakery and sweet items but they are very tasty so when I have a great day I reward myself with one of their cake jars or mini cheesecakes and those are also amazing!

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.

I also got the Vanilla Coconut latte, which basically tasted like a coconut latte, so if you love coconut it would be your jam. Service was fine, the folks working there were pleasant. It has lots of bright natural lighting, and plenty of seating, but I do wish the chairs were more comfortable. This isn't a place I would bring a laptop to set up shop and work for a few hours, personally, but others may feel differently. Parking lot had plenty of space as well, which was great. If I'm in the area again I would go back.

The Lombard location is floor to ceiling windows throughout, letting in natural light. This location is very spacious and has plenty of seating (indoor and outdoor). It is not cramped at all. There are several places for great photo ops too. Service throughout was great. The staff member that assisted me was very helpful and friendly. He may have been the only person there and he was able to keep up with the constant influx of customers. I got a hot Yemeni chai as my drink and it was creamy, bold, and flavorful. MOTW's chai is my favorite when compared to other Yemeni shops. It is sooooo good!! For food I got a samosa empanada which was very tasty. I appreciate that they warmed it up for me too. There is an up charge for sauce, which I did get. The spicy aioli paired very well with the samosa empanada. I believe the empanadas are from savory crust.

They have a small set of games that can be used for social time with friends and the setup with distinctly different areas allows for patrons to enjoy different vibes depending on where they sit. As for the drinks, I love the use of actual fresh fruit in the smoothies, which is distinct for anyone who has been disappointed by powders and syrups elsewhere. The other drinks are also made with high quality ingredients and allow for sugar and ice levels to be changed as needed. The prices are very good for the Chicago suburbs and the sizes are generous (especially the Extra Large!). In addition to smoothies, they also carry a selection of teas, cheese tops, fruit teas, tea lattes, flavored yakult, milkshakes, and more. This is one of the spots that you can find authentic Asian flavor combinations that you only expect to see in Chinatown, Schaumburg, or Naperville. Overall, one of my favorite bubble tea spots in the area and definitely worth a visit if you're nearby.

We stumbled across TruLē and decided to check it out since we both love Boba/tea. The inside was small, but super cute. They have two self ordering kiosks when you walk in & you can also order at the counter. It was very clean and bright inside as well. I asked for a custom version of one of their existing teas and they were gladly able to make it for me! I asked for a mango peach green tea. My mom got a mango strawberry smoothie and we were both super satisfied with your drinks. Their green tea brew is some of the best I've had, it was light but had a great floral taste to it as well.

My husband and I used to live nearby, and some of our favorite memories are walking over on weekends with our pup, grabbing coffee, and sitting out front just enjoying the moment. I recently visited the Elmhurst Craft location for an event and had one of those experiences that just sticks with you. I was chatting with a barista about how much I love (and deeply miss!) the Equinox. She mentioned she was newer and hadn't tried it, but saw it in the recipe book and agreed it sounded amazing--which, for the record, it absolutely is (or was ). A little while later, she came running up to me asking if I was the one talking about the Equinox. When I said yes, she surprised me with an Equinox sticker she had dug up. Such a small, simple gesture--but it genuinely meant so much and made my entire night. To the Brewpoint leadership team: that moment alone earned my loyalty for life. Customer service like that is rare, and it deserves to be recognized. I didn't catch her name, but I was there Thursday, March 19 between 6-8 PM at the Craft location--she was running the sample table and sharing the carrot cake latte (which, by the way, was incredible). Please pass along a huge thank you and some well-deserved recognition--she truly made an impact. And one last thing... BRING BACK THE EQUINOX!! Pretty please

They still had the same coffee menu, seasonal drinks, and baked good offering; but, felt a lot more like a neighborhood destination. I ended up ordering coffee for my work team and all were impressed by the flavors! I got a Black Americano, Hot Borealis Latte, and the Whipped Carrot Cake Latte for myself. The Carrot Cake Latte may be a new all time favorite of mine! It wasn't too sweet but just leaned into the flavor profile enough. My coworker who had the Hot Borealis said it may have been her favorite latte she's tried. I also got the Herbed Goat Cheese Croissant which is familiar yet unique with the pop of savoriness. Overall, this was a great experience as a stop in when passing through the area. Brewpoint continues to have great flavors that leaves a lasting impression. Staff is friendly and pricing is fair.
