I did an online order/door dash so I did not get to see the actual place in person. From photos online it looks great!! Friends ordered lattes and lots of other things and they all came back made properly and tasting great. Not too milky not too much flavor or lack of flavor. Everything is great! I would definitely order from them again and I plan to as I continue my stay here in Illinois! I recommend it all! Not too badly priced either - especially with door dash. 20oz cold brew was $5.95. They had so many more items to choose from so I am looking forward to ordering from them again.

Their direct manager, Ninette is the sweetest individual in the world and is super passionate and 'patient' with the BS college students have as they show no respect. I've been treated poorly by upper management before and after working there for 3 and a half years, I can say I truly cannot label this place a coffee shop as they take no respect in certain coffee culture and processes. I would give this place somewhere between a Starbucks and a 7/11. I hope they turn this place around. Some of the workers are great, and I made amazing friends and Ninette truly is a sweet heart ( I recommend y'all say hi to her! ) I hope this place makes the come back I deserves.

Coming from an Indian family, Indian food has always been something prominent in my life. So when I came to NIU this filled the gap of a lack of that Cuisine. For my meal I started with the Samosa with chutney which was absolutely delicious. The samosa shell had a great crunch to it and the inside was warm and full of great spices and flavor. The chutney was a perfect spicy companion to go along with it. For the main meal I had the Paneer butter masala. What a great combination of spice and savory to create an excellent dish. The paneer was cooked wonderfully and not chewy at all. They sauce was spicy but also made the paneer delicious. To accompany it I had a mango lassi which just made everything so much better. If you are even close to DeKalb, I recommend you go here because if you don't you are missing

Got something from this Indian cafe in DeKalb. It actually is more of a counter inside a grocery…read more Khana Khazana is located inside Gurukrupa, which has groceries and copying services. An odd combination. They aren't open a lot so make sure they are before going, and there's a dining area but most customers will get it as takeout. Coming in here the first time was confusing. It's inside an Indian grocery store that also doubles as a place for making copies, if you can believe it. The counter is in the back, and there's usually just one person there. A lot of the food is prepackaged and ready to go. You just pay for it. It's about $12 for a meal, of which you get a lot of food. There's the classics like biryani and chana masala. Even though the location is weird it's still pretty good to be honest. It's a counter and a few tables but it's mostly for takeout. They're closed weekends.

Checked out The Lincoln Inn while in town for camp at the college…read more It's a nice spot, and the food was good. We started with two cups of cream of chicken rice soup and was surprised that this bakery didn't offer rolls with the soup, so I chose to use the toast from the meal I ordered. It worked perfectly. I will add that soup was served barely lukewarm. Not ideal, but we ate it. Next, we ordered a Tuna Melt with fries and a Lincoln Inn Special. We both agreed the food was good. Our server was very nice. She was attentive and assisted when asked. We also ordered the Strawberry Crepes to go. But we couldn't stop there, lol. While at the register, there were cinnamon rolls and pecan rolls, so we grabbed one of each. We enjoyed those a little later while we waited for our child who was at the camp. Both were delicious! I think it's great how the photos of many years are going across the walls and that they support the local college and their sports. Such a nice touch. There was a gentleman who came over and introduced himself and asked if I knew anyone in the photos. I do not recall his name. He was kind and told me about the photos and about how he created one in particular which was rather impressive.
