Adorable place. Small and homey. I hoped for a lavender latte but they were out of lavender. I…read moreordered a banana bread latte instead and it was yummy. The problem with it being so small is if too many people enter and are not considerate, it can get loud very quickly. It was not busy when I first got there and then some young adults entered and were a bit loud for the tiny space. Great experience overall. Will go back. They also have books you can read, and have another smaller room off of the larger room. Have a couple outside seats as well.

The service was great. Super quiet and relaxing place to get work done or meet with a friend…read more We ordered 2 matchas. Strawberry matcha and banana bread matcha. Unfortunately there is no matcha flavor and the flavoring is so light so it's very milky. I would recommend to add more matcha than milk ratio & perfect the syrup ratio.

I met a couple friends her last week and was told it had a different name, but now they are…read moreNicollette's Cafe. They are located next to Gianni's Cafe in downtown Palatine. Even though they are both cafes, they are very different. Gianni's is more of an Italian bistro. Nicollette's is a cute coffee shop with a nice cafe menu of pastries and breakfast foods and sandwiches. I believe they have some lunch items like paninis and salads, but I don't right recall as I was there on a Sunday morning. What I found interesting with this coffee shop versus others is that they open at 10am and not the normal 8am or 9am on a Sunday morning. When I arrived (about 15 minutes prior to them opening the shop), I found plenty of parking on the street. Behind the building there are more parking lots, so there is plenty of parking for the restuarants, bars, and shops in the immediate area. Upon entering the shop, there are little clusters of seating areas all over the cafe. The clusters have cushioned chairs, couches and comfy seating - not a hard seat in the place - which is perfect for meeting up with friends, grabbing an expertly made coffee drink and a delicious treat, sandwich, or salad. I ordered my go to: an iced oat milk mocha latte with an extra pump of mocha and some kind of pastry. On this occasion, I ordered a Nutella and banana crepe. When it arrived, the crepe was the size of the plate. It was sweet, but not too much, and had a nice blend of Nutella and banana, but it wasn't drowning in Nutella, which is often the folly and failure of other places that use this hazelnut spread. We had a lovely time and they don't shoo you out as more people arrive. The staff is friendly, the music is not too loud, and the ambience is conversational. It's a great location to meet up with friends and colleagues in Palatine. A place I will surely revisit.

I ordered my husband a cardamom latte and butter chicken empanada to go and he said he liked it--the butter chicken empanada was a huge hit and the cardamom wasn't too strong, but the latte had a fragrance to it...and I think it's because of the heavy air diffusers they have inside the cafe. So what we ordered was all good and fine, but the fragrance definitely lingers, so if you're sensitive to scents this might be a little too much. Overall, it's a nice quiet place near Harper, so I can see it being a good hangout/study spot.

My friend and I headed outside to enjoy our drinks on the patio. Several minutes later, Tara came outside carrying another latte. She had PERFECTED the latte bear and gave it to us for free! She made my entire day. Thank you to Tara for the amazing art and for going above and beyond in your customer service!! I can't wait to go back for my next coffee and hope she's working when I do.

Expect a line as there was a long line when we arrive. Unfortunately there's only one person at the cashier register and I think there's only one register and there's only that one person who's taking the orders. While I understand that this is a small run shop I will say that standing in line and waiting on a Saturday morning really is discouraging. The food however, a super delicious and came out very timely. So absolutely no complaints for me and they also have a water station set up so you can help yourself to water which is fantastic. After sitting around for about an hour to an hour and a half this place got super packed with families's children and strollers which made it even harder to move around. The ambience is fantastic so definitely worth it for your social media. I would come back here again, however I'm not really someone to order alcohol here at this time but for breakfast I think it's great.

Cant wait to check out the other new location in Park Ridge! The vibe and aesthetic are also so cute in here! Love the simple design! It is located inside the train station, so while it was busy both times I went I received my food and drinks super fast!
