I personally cannot drink caffeine but my wife is a coffee fiend so we end up here a LOT. They have decaf espresso which I really appreciate because all the lattes are so delicious and I don't wanna be left out of drinking them! The sandwiches and pastry's that they offer are also very good and I haven't been disappointed in anything I've ordered. The service is great! Quick and friendly which is perfect for a coffee shop like this! I love the ambiance and all the chemistry related decor. The selection of entertainment in the form of book and board games is great. The vibe in here is very comfy cozy and comfortable to stay a while. I've been to a couple of the events they hold here as well and have had a great time. Overall I think Chemn is absolutely a gem in Elgin and I feel very lucky to have them!

Now the shakes and teas are out of this world. These Herbalife protein tastes like creamy milkshakes (which blows my mind because they're made with water and not milk!) and they're under 300 calories! It's the best of both worlds. It's also such a great bonus you can add things like collagen to your drink for added benefits. Finally, I love their cardio drumming class. It's affordable, and you get a tea and shake for before and after the workout (it is added in with the price of the cardio drumming class). I can't complain at all about The Healthy Spot because it has been my favorite places in Elgin where I will always stop for a good drink but even better community.

I've been wanting to find a local coffee place in Manor. I had come across this truck while driving…read moredown 290, always passed it but never had the time to make a stop. FINALLY I decided to make some time and check it out. It was a Saturday afternoon around 10 AM. When looking it up here on Yelp I noticed it has the location much further out in Elgin or so, but it's actually right next to Old Kimbro Road. Walking up to it, it's a beautiful truck with all of the menu options all over it. I was greeted by a very nice woman inside who took my order. I ordered an iced latte with vanilla and a breakfast bagel sandwich. The coffee was delicious--creamy and sweet as it should be! And the breakfast sandwich was also great. The bagel was soft and dough-y, and the bacon and egg had good flavor. It's a generous size as well! I didn't expect to get as full as I did with it. I took it to go and I loved the business stickers and packaging! Overall had a great experience here and will definitely be back. Skip Starbucks and Go Local!!! You won't regret it!!

For starters, their location on both Apple maps and Yelp map is wrong. I had a difficult time…read morefinding it and was ready to call it quits when I turned the highway and found it parked on the other side of 290 and Old Kimbro Rd going towards Manor. They have their menu posted all over their truck and a small sign above their window advertising their new cold brew. I took two. The total came out to be just over $8 (I did ask for oat milk and vanilla syrup in both) and added a tip to support my local business. The coffee was on the sweeter side and had a creamier taste. My dog and I waited at the swing table briefly and the woman offered my dog a dog treat in which she happily accepted. Great service and great coffee close to home. I'm looking forward to coming back and trying new things on their menu!

There's quite a bit of seating inside their main space, but also additional seating in the lobby of the attached building. I came with a large group after a morning run, and we made the one barista working put in work. He knocked all of our orders out though! I honestly really appreciate him being patient with all of us full of energy after our morning workout. I ordered a hot latte with their Miso Maple syrup and oat milk. It was fantastic and really well balanced. Their house-made miso maple syrup added a sweet and savory flavor profile to the well-crafted drink. Not only do they serve coffee, but they also offer fantastic pastries from Baked n' Sconed from Hutto and breakfast bites from Kerlaches, which I indulged in, their Sausage and Jalapeño Cheddar kolache, which smacked like nothing else. A huge link of sausage, which was much needed after the 4 miles I ran. Taylor is no stranger to good coffee shops, and this immediately became one of the best ones in town.

They have a nice setup with great open-air seating. Staff was very inviting and friendly. Will definitely be back again for a different coffee selection and try some food.

The drinks are always top tier, especially their specialty Armadillo Latte and Armadillo Milk based drinks that they offer. Their staff is also very friendly and conversational. I had a work conference in Taylor last month and it was walking distance to Haciendo. I ended up going twice in one day, that's how much I enjoyed it. I've come here quite a few times. My favorite was on an extremely rainy day last year where I got to gaze out their windows and enjoy the atmosphere inside. This is the crown jewel of coffee in Taylor and is probably the best coffee shop in a 10 mile radius from my apartment. I'll be back! RIYL: Quaint places and quiet coffee shops
