Love this place. Wilmette needed a late night place to grab a last drink or a coffee. Â We've stopped in a couple of times after dinner and caught some random different music acts that we really had fun hanging out to. Â When it first opened I ran in for coffee and a breakfast sandwich -- that wasn't so remarkable. Â But highly recommend it for an evening stop over. Â Fun to hear live music coming out of a shop in Wilmette -- makes it almost feel urban.
Review Source:This place is a nice addition to the Wilmette scene. Kind of reminds me of something you might find on a side street in Downtown Milwaukee.
Small with only a few tables, the interior reflects the fact that there is a music school upstairs. Filled with guitars, recording equipment and a new stage for live music, I have to say my two favorite things (aside from the vanilla latte) in the space are the chandelier in the center of the room and the hanging guitar menu boards. Nice design contrast.
Wow, a much different and way fantastic vanilla latte--different in the sense that it was strong with full-body flavor and very caffeinated. Buzzworthy indeed! Typically I have a vanilla latte and it's just not enough of a pick-me-up. I would recommend the latte here if you need an extra kick.
A cornucopia of interesting tea flavors, it's one of the largest collections I've seen at a small independent coffee and tea café. The baked goods are not made on site and not delivered daily, so if you are looking for a killer nosh I suggest sticking with the coffee or tea where you won't be disappointed.
Excellent service, great vibe, and a memorable latte (a little pricey though), I'll be back for sure!
