    Iced latte  Chai latte

    Rustic Knead is an absolute gem in Lemont! The bacon, egg & cheese sandwich was next-level amazing--crispy bacon, fluffy eggs, melty cheese, and perfectly toasted bread that had me wishing I ordered two. The spicy egg torta was just as impressive--flavorful, bold, and the kind of sandwich you think about hours later (no shame if I already am ). Their coffee and tea selection deserves its own shoutout--so many options, and everything I tried was smooth and comforting, exactly what you want with a killer breakfast sandwich. The vibe is cozy and welcoming, perfect for a casual morning hangout or grabbing something hearty before tackling the day. Will definitely be back. Rustic Knead has officially become one of my go-to breakfast spots in the area

    Cobb Sandwich

    Was looking for a new sandwich place to try. Bread is good. Sandwiches were ok. A nice option to the traditional places

    Club Med

    I came to Rustic Knead with two friends after hearing great things about it. I thought it was going to be like Panera, and while you could say the concepts are a bit similar (soups, salads, and sandwiches), the execution is were the two totally differ. Rustic Knead is a very spacious place, with lots of different seating available. You go up to the counter and place your order as they make the sandwich in front of you. Absolutely love that because you get to see all the fresh ingredients being used. I ordered the Club Med; chicken, European feta cheese, red pepper hummus, cucumber, vine tomato, avocado, red onion, baby arugula. To be honest, I am not sure what bread my sandwich was made on but it was good. It had a very crusty exterior and fluffy interior. The sandwich was very big; I definitely had to save half for later. The components of the sandwich were all very flavorful, and the difference in textures among them added a nice contrast between each bite. Rustic Knead is a very solid place to get lunch. I would highly recommend it!

    I finally got the chance to try this place and I've been back 2xs in 2 weeks. I literally want to try all their sandwiches!! There's so many options to pick from and I love that they use fresh, clean products, and slice the meat right in front of you. Ive had both the caprese sandwich and the Cobb and my only complaint would be that I wished they offered to toast the caprese. I think melted mozzarella would've put the sandwich over the edge for me- and it was already good cold. I have yet to try their soups or salads, maybe on my next visit. I haven't gotten there early enough to see all their baked goods. I usually make it after 12 and by then, it's slim pickings for pastries. I'm not sure if I missed the baked bread- like sour dough and their baguette on my first visit, but I noticed it today. They all look very good and I'll have to pick up a loaf next time. Today I just went with slices rustic white bread which my family enjoyed. Cant wait to try more sandwiches. Glad I found this place....

    Chicken and Gouda sandwich

    Great quality all around. Highlander's breakfast sandwich, smoked salmon, Parma, turkey and chicken and Gouda sandwiches fantastic! Fast service and great coffee. Affordable prices which makes this place 6 stars out of 5 stars!!

    Spicy Chorizo Egg Sandwich on Gluten Free Bread

    Got breakfast. I had the spicy chorizo egg sandwich on gluten free bread. Bread was excellent. Very soft. About a 5 minute wait in line so no biggie there. Plenty of seating. Very open. Bought a loaf of bread while there and looking forward to it. Excellent experience.

    Pre-holiday breakfast!

    See all

    Quality sandwiches at very affordable prices. Wish they were open later though. Can't get there during the work week.

    Good ambiance. Food good 5 star. Coffee was bad, burnt milk and burnt espresso. Lost point in my book.

    This place is pretty amazing. The bread is fresh, the sandwiches are tasty. The ambiance feels very French farm house.

    Picked up a load of barbeque at Matt's on Saturday for the NFL\WWF Match between the Monsters of…read morethe Chicago Midway and the Packers of the Wisconsin Green Bay. Vegas money must have been on the Bears! I had not been to Matt's in a while and after Sunday's smorgasbord, I'll not repeat the mistake. We started off with Smoked Wings and Texas Twinkies (Bacon Wrapped-Brisket and Cheese Stuffed Jalapenos). Great flavor and heat! We also had some of the best Baby Back Ribs I have ever feasted upon. I smoke ribs weekly and these were honestly superb in every sense. The pulled pork was deployed for sandwiches for the little ones. All sauces and sides--shoutout to the PICKLES--were on point. Packaging was done with care for transport home. One of the workers even helped me out to the car with my food and tried to refuse a tip for the hand. I'll be more of a frequent flyer after this most recent visit. Great job to all the staff at Matt's!

    Love Matt's but lately I feel like things are off. Usually…read morecome here for the ribs which in my opinion are the best thing on the menu. Been coming here since before they had fries on the menu. Last 2 times I've gone they've been out of ribs so I've had to substitute. So I've gotten the burnt ends and a brisket slider. The brisket is decent. Very tender. With the honey sauce it's quite good. The first time I got the burnt ends they were a little fatty to be expected but honestly delicious. But this most recent time I got them I'm talking almost 80% fat. I had a huge chunk of nothing but fat no meat to be seen. I was so unsatisfied I came here to write this review. I also don't like the 1 refill with my sodas before they start charging me for refills Matt's is one of the 3 good spots in the walkable area with barrel and vine and the Mexican spot being the other 2 good spots. Hoping the next time I can update this review for the better but highly disappointed tonight.
