The cold brew was incredibly watered down and barely tasted like coffee. It feels like they have reused the grounds several times as the color and taste was very off.

Don't know what it is but I've been really into banana flavoring this year so it was fantastic news…read moreto find this locally owned coffee spot a short drive from an appointment in Bolingbrook this past weekend that has a banana bread latte on their seasonal menu. I ordered at the drive-thru window. Staff were friendly and service was quick. I agree with others that $9 is on the pricey side for a 16oz drink. The banana bread flavoring tasted good but it could have used more banana. Still, it was really creamy with a nice ratio of sweetness. I'd be interested to try other options the next time I'm around.

Being that Ramadan had recently started, I assumed this was post iftar, the evening break in the fast and peeps were coming for drinks and desserts. The drink menu is on a display but it doesn't mention what flavors are associated in some of their custom drinks. I was split between a Habibi, coconut or Biscoff flavored lattes. A conversation with the barista pushed me towards the aforementioned and they said they could lighten the sweetness. I don't remember the details of exactly what gives its "Middle Eastern flair", the flavors worked and kept me awake for the drive. Judging from the many orders being called out, I picked the most popular. If you dig chill spaces to work & or meet new peeps, seek out details on their IG page. They host lively events to discover their new menu items and or trivia nights engaging popular topics Ie Star Wars, Marvel, and more.

Stepping into this charming tea room to celebrate National Celiac Awareness Day turned out to be an…read moreabsolute treat. My birthday gift card finally was put to fantastic use, and the entire experience exceeded expectations from start to finish. The atmosphere is undeniably adorable, setting a cozy and welcoming tone the moment you walk through the door. Weekend reservations are a must here, with seatings available at 11:00am and 2:00pm. We booked the 11:00am slot for three of us on a Sunday, and parking was a breeze with a lot conveniently located right across the street. You prepay when making the reservation, which conveniently includes a 20% gratuity upfront. They feature a seasonal, prix fixe three-course menu that comes with one tea of your choice. To make the most of it, the three of us each selected a different tea so we could sample and share. As someone navigating celiac disease, finding a safe and accommodating spot is always a relief. They cater to gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan diets for an additional charge. What really stood out was that the gluten-free options mirrored the regular menu. Every single course was utterly delicious, proving that dietary accommodations don't have to sacrifice flavor. Whether you're marking a special occasion or just craving a lovely afternoon out, this spot is a gem. Highly recommended!

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.
