Visitors praise the quality of food and appreciate the gluten-free choices available.
Nice little breakfast place. Very attentive staff. Stopped in on a weekday, it was not very busy. The 5-6 staff members were all smiling and eager to please. Corned beef skillet was delicious (maybe a little heavy handed with the oil but I didn’t mind). Simple decor and comfortable booths. Great place for a quick bite or a family breakfast. The restaurant is very clean and un cluttered. I will be back several times after a great first experience. Keep up the good work!

I have been coming here for years and am never, ever disappointed. My family stopped in today after a rather challenging morning looking for comfort in some coffee and a hot breakfast. Dawn H was our server and we could not have asked for better! Immediately she brought us a fresh pot of coffee with a warm smile. She was a delight, very friendly and you can tell she knows her stuff. The food was amazing per usual! The hash browns were perfectly golden and crispy. Dawn made our experience just that much better. Will be back soon :)

This place was seriously great. Only conplaint is that it was a 15 minute wait for the table (since it was packed!!) but once we got a table and ordered, the food came very fast (like 3-5 minutes) Pancakes are very fluffy and the maple syrup is fantastic, and the fries are the best🤩🤩🤩🤩 Please please PLEASE visit this place for amazing food for good prices

Every Sunday we typically go out to breakfast and my partner mentioned The Point Pancake House and how this restaurant was a go-to spot for him and his family to go to. We decided to come for my first experience and for him to come back after a long hiatus of coming there. When I tell you this place is awesome, I truly mean it! It’s a local gem; the staff is incredibly kind and personable, the food options are endless, the drink options are vast, and everything tastes amazing! I ordered the chicken and waffles and him the steak and eggs. It was incredibly good! I also ordered a vanilla latte and him an iced mocha, and again, so incredibly good! If you’re looking for a wonderful hometown breakfast experience with tons to choose from and such a kind wait staff, I highly recommend The Point Pancake House!

Don't waste your time here if your hungry. Attached is a photo of 5 plates of food that didnt get finished due to no one liking the food. Hostess was arguing with another waitress under their breathe about something. Some dude sighed and didnt appreciate our family of 6 walk in. Nonetheless, this place from the nonmatching walls, and food not really all that. Better off with going somewhere else

The Point is not just a diner, but a cozy dining experience with excellent food choices and quality. They offer an elevated level of fine products. They use whole grain bakery bread, fresh squeezed juice, looseleaf tea varieties served in a teapot with strainer, top shelf jams etc. All served with a smile and welcoming attitude. I visit here with my friend on a quarterly basis whenever I'm in town visiting my parents. The Point never disappoints. Enjoy!

Chick-fil-A is a popular fast-food chain known for its delicious chicken sandwiches, nuggets, salads, and sides. The restaurant offers employment opportunities at various locations. Customers have praised the exceptional customer service at Chick-fil-A, with staff members resolving issues promptly and in a friendly manner. However, some have experienced occasional hiccups such as missing items in their orders or difficulties with the drive-through process.
I was having a really rough day today and I decided to go to this Chick-Fil-A establishment and was greeted with a smile by a young nice fellow name Bailey. He reassured me that the grilled sandwich was 100% guarantee freshly made unlike other fast food establishments. It was quickly made, very delicious and I even made a new friend.

This breakfast sandwich was like 8$ and the piece of chicken was smaller than a white castle slider. Didn't taste bad but way too expensive for the size. Last I went the nuggets were soggy and just tasted disgusting. I wont be back, 2x is all a store gets to rip me off.

Dirty tables outside. You have to wait for food inside even though they have outdoor seating was given a pack of wipes to clean the table Instead of the employees doing it. I would never come back to this location. I usually go to Vernon Hills and the employees are friendly and engaging. This did not feel like chick fil a. Skip it if you can.

Ron has honestly made my whole year. His hospitality truly made me feel cared for. He brought out our food and we were missing a vanilla shake.

We liked the food, delicious meat on steaks. There were a lot of people, they didn’t have time to cook meat and waited for about 20 minutes. And in general, everything is fine.
Zelim M — Google review
This place has really gone downhill! Most of the workers could care less about the customers, including the majority of the servers. There are many empty food containers on the buffet line, and none of the workers seem to care. But good luck getting the attention of any workers to get some help, especially by the steaks! They are too busy talking and pretending to be busy to put more food out and to give people steaks. There are not as many different varieties of food as there once was either. The cooking is very inconsistent, so you don't know what you are going to get. The food is fair at best. To pay $47 (for 2 people) for the food served to us (or half served) is ridiculous! Many customers were complaining when I was there earlier today, saying they should have gone eat somewhere else, and they will not go back there again. I felt exactly the same way myself! I'm not sure if it's carelessness from management or lazy, unprofessional workers that management can't get under control that has caused this place to get to where it has, but it's truly pitiful! Oh, and how can I forget the nasty, filthy bathrooms. I decided I would just wait to use the bathroom when I got back home. The best word I can use to describe this place is disgraceful! But lesson learned... I won't waste my time or money again.

Went to this location for the first time last night and the energy here is not inviting. It was a Saturday night, they seemed short staff and the staff that was there were a tad bit rude and lacked passion for work. I felt uncomfortable asking for things that should have been available. I felt like I was bothering them just by mentioning that there was an empty tray of main dishes. There were a nice number of children including my son who asked for cotton candy and the worker that worked in the dessert area had them waiting over 20 min. I addressed her and she said that she was busy! There were so many empty tables in this place and it was around 6 when we arrived. There was food on the ground and it just didn’t feel like a welcoming/professional establishment. I do regret bringing my family here for my 3 yr old birthday dinner.

My wife and I ate here yesterday. We were there for about an hour and a half. The food does not get replenished in time for everyone to eat. In the hour and a half that I was there I waited specifically for the barbecued chicken the whole time I was there. Meaning I waited an hour and a half for barbecue chicken that I was never able to eat. They kept telling me 10 minutes 10 minutes and they never replenished said barbecue chicken. What I was able to eat was one little slice of steak with a roll and mashed potatoes. Aside from that I ate a hot dog all for the buffet price of $20. Not because I didn't want to eat but because the food that they promised wasn't there. The last time I went up to the buffet to ask when the barbecue chicken would be done. He said oh 7:05 for sure without fail. I waited until 7:05. Nothing came out. I almost want to ask for my money back. But the one thing I will do is and not recommend this location due to not replenishing certain foods at the buffet. And one good thing I can say about this location is the lady that was cooking. The steak yesterday was awesome. She was very nice. Cooked our steak exactly like we wanted it. But that was short-lived.
Luis A — Google review
I don't know why, but last night, the food was scarce, and what was available was cold. I had some chili and it was very chili, so we're the mashed potatoes, broccoli, and a few other items. The salads were out. The children's hands were touching the food directly without tongs. There were many tables that had empty plates on them from the time we got there until we left. The server gave us the wrong drinks. It was an all-around bad experience. I also witnessed the people preparing the food mixing old with new food, which goes against health codes. It was just nasty. I'm not going back here until things are changed.

Stopped by for a late lunch. Service was great, I was seated in no time and waitress was very attentive. Ordered Grandma breakfast combo with pancakes and hashbrown casserole. Order arrived hot and fresh within less than 7 minutes. Everything was delicious, pancakes really stick out the most. Nobody beats Cracker Barrel pancakes, especially paired with their maple syrup. Crispy edges and fluffy interiors top notch. Waitress was great at checking up and making the experience smooth. Love coming back here. Only negative I will say was the mimosa drink, it seemed like a half portion. Other than that great experience and look forward to returning.

Not sure why it took us an hour between ordering our food and receiving it. The food was pretty good but we could tell some of it had been sitting in a warmer for some time. Portion sizes are great. The maple bacon grilled chicken is always good. They have all day breakfast as well. And some drinks are bottomless. The store is fun to browse through. Fresh biscuits and cornbread are sooooooo good.

We enjoyed our visits to cracker barrel. The food is quite reasonably priced and they have some interesting options. Service is first class both in a store and front of house wait staff. Food is pretty good. Americana on the whole, certainly better than some diner type places. Good portion sizes for sure. The store in the front has a lot of interesting gift choices and toys for the kids as well as touristy gizmos. They even had sugar-free chocolate, which I thought was a unusual bonus. Good place, excellent staff, would come back.

After a long, exciting day at Six Flags, Cracker Barrel was the perfect place to relax and enjoy a hearty meal. The warm, welcoming atmosphere felt like home the second we walked in, and the staff couldn’t have been friendlier. The food was exactly what we needed—comforting, flavorful, and served hot. I went with the Chicken and Dumplings, and it was absolutely delicious! The cornbread and biscuits were just as amazing, and of course, I had to grab some dessert to finish off the night. What I love most about Cracker Barrel is how consistent they are—you can always count on great food, great service, and that cozy country feel. After an adrenaline-filled day riding coasters like Raging Bull at Six Flags, this was the perfect way to wind down. Highly recommend stopping by after a big day of fun!

Denny's is a beloved casual diner chain that serves up classic American comfort food, making it a go-to spot for all-day breakfast cravings. Diners rave about the attentive service, with staff like Adan and Eduardo going above and beyond to ensure guests feel welcomed and well taken care of.
Our server Adan was great! Very attentive, we didn't have to ask for refills on our drinks. He was right there to take care of us. I had the Moons Over Myhammy with hash browns well done. The sandwich was perfect, as were the hash browns. This is the first restaurant that actually cooked them the way I like them. My wife had the Red White and Blue breakfast with blueberry pancakes covered with fresh strawberries and whipped cream with a vanilla drizzle. Along with the pancakes she got two eggs over easy and well done bacon. Her meal was done perfect also. Our experience at Dennys today in Gurnee, Illinois was great. Meals were wonderful, server was great, and the restaurant was nice and clean. We'll be back soon when we're in the area again.

I'm Hispanic but do not look it. If you are not Hispanic and don't look it, your service is disgraceful. You stand at the counter waiting to be advised whether to sit and wait for your table or to follow them. All the while they are speaking Spanish in front of you like you don't exist. When you order food you wait 45 minutes. Hopefully you need extra calcium because your scrambled eggs will have shells in them and your hashbrowns will be cooked in grease. Also hope you had your vaccines as the silverware was dirty every single set. Good luck on getting anything you ask for as they don't return. Very very very disgusting. I was so disappointed and ashamed at the service provided to me and my family. Do better Hispanics, do better.

If I could leave zero stars I would. My son ordered boneless buffalo wings they looked like over cooked pieces of dough with a tiny bit of buffalo sauce. They tasted horrible so he sent that back and got the fish dinner and that also came over cooked and nasty. I do not recommend this place ever!!! McDonald’s would have been better.not once did they lady come to our table for drink refills or anything.

If I could give zero stars, I would. I ordered food to-go from this Denny’s and what I received was not what was advertised. The hash browns were undercooked, pale, and tasted like straight-up freezer burn. I showed the manager a comparison between my food and the promotional photo (you know, the one THEY use to lure customers in), and she had the audacity to tell me “you can’t compare the photos to real life.” Excuse me??? Then what’s the point of the ad?? Let’s be clear, I wasn’t expecting a photoshoot plate. I was expecting my food to be cooked properly. There’s a difference between a dish not “looking like the ad” and it being undercooked and barely edible. That’s not a photo issue, that’s a kitchen issue. She even admitted that other customers have complained about this. Save your money and go to McDonald’s for your breakfast or something

Friday evening dinner. The place was 1/6 full. Had a nice waitress. Ordered in five minutes and food served in 13 minutes. Both orders were for the fish (polluck). The fries were cold and the broccoli almost. You deserve a 3 because the place, including the bathrooms were clean. Your R/Rs had hot water! Our waitress always maintained a warm smile. Maybe just an off order. I'll come back again.

Starbucks is a well-known coffeehouse chain based in Seattle that offers its customers signature roasted beverages, light snacks, and the convenience of WiFi access. The friendly and supportive staff at this particular location demonstrated their exceptional customer service when they promptly provided wipes to a kid who spilled hot tea on their laptop. With broken home WiFi, the customer visited Starbucks for internet access while adhering to safety measures such as wearing masks and maintaining social distancing.
I just stopped by this busy little coffee shop in Gurnee and I have to tell you there’s some growth potential here. I’ve never heard of this place but they offer a streamlined product with nice interiors and quality staff watch out for this company. They could really make some moves with the right leadership.

Drink was good, place was clean, and staff tried to be friendly… I would normally give 4-5 stars for a location like this, but at 7am on a Saturday, the place was too busy for the 3 people working. While there were only 2 other customers inside the store, there must’ve been a lot of online orders because they were working so hard like chickens with…you know. They were so busy that I had to wait a good 3-5 minutes before getting service to purchase a mug. The stars don’t reflect on the staff, as they were trying their best, I think, but the manager should think about getting more help for the busiest hours so they wouldn’t be so frazzled.

I have ordered my same drink for years. No one at starbucks has ever given me a hard time about the way I order it until now. The guy at the widow which I suspect is one of the stores managers was not kind and saying I couldn’t get more heavy cream for my drink. Well then charge me he said no I’ll be nice this time. If I’m paying for something please give it to me. Even before when I’ve been there he has taken my order and has not said anything to me and saying he has to follow protocol well where was the protocol before when you took my order. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again this location is the WORST for customer service

Dunkin' is a beloved chain known for its signature breakfast offerings and an impressive array of coffee beverages. During my visit to this particular Dunkin', I was greeted by a friendly and efficient staff, predominantly Hispanic, who made the experience delightful. Despite a line forming, service moved swiftly, ensuring that I received my order without much wait. The selection of donuts was abundant and varied—perfect for my client meeting!
I'm from NYC, so right away I loved this Dunkin' - it isn't run by middle easterners. Mostly Hispanic staff, very friendly, very quick and efficient. Always a smile. Don't be put off if there's a line - it goes quicker than you'd think. Just slightly after the AM rush, and the donuts were fully stocked. More variety than I'm used to at home, too. I ordered 2 doz mixed for a client meeting. Nice job, folks!

Youthful staff were courteous and immediately served me. Also, one team member was meticulously sweeping, mopping, and wiping down tables. It gave me a satisfying feeling of an excellent attitude regarding cleanliness.

The guy taking my order didn’t know if they had pies and first questioned me and made me feel dumb. The whole thing felt rushed and I forgot to get my kid his refresher. Once I get to the window, I ask if they can add it and they say no. I have to get back in the line, which was moving so slow by the way, and place the order. He didn’t tell me my total for my first order and he failed to give me my receipt. Everyone there seemed to lack sense or urgency or even know what was going on Mx

The bigger set guy, always gets smart about any question you ask….. also he try’s getting smart about everything. I was making sure that my food was completed, before I left the restaurant, and he tried to ask me if anything was wrong with my order because I seem like I made a face sheet assume automatically that I was making a face towards whatever he thought I was making a face to. This guy has seriously issues. And I know one thing that’s non-customer service towards a person who actually Show stop every morning to buy their coffees for their meanings for their employees

Thuis store need's help!!! Drive thru had at least 9 cars so I decided to go inside. Wanted one donut. Two people were working . One acknowledged me saying give her a minute. One minute turned into almost 10 min. I left. The day before I pulled in & the drive thru had at least 8 cars so I said no way!! This store is in a bad location & can't handle the volume. Plus they need more staff in the morning! Won't be going back forvawhile!!

The door was locked at 0508 so I was forced to go thru drive through. The apple fritter is more like a puff pastry. My sandwich had 3 very tiny strips of bacon. I bought this for someone and these are their complaints lol. They were not happy with food but the drink no complaints lol.

Horrible. Employee lied and charged me a unsale price after telling me there was none. I would advise staying away from this store. I called about the incident and they haven't offered to make things right, despite him gleefully telling me he didn't know there was an upcharge when I pointed out that I had specifically asked about the price.

Panera Bread is a delightful counter-serve bakery and café chain that specializes in serving up an array of sandwiches, salads, and more. Known for its freshly baked bread and inviting atmosphere, it’s the perfect spot to unwind with free WiFi while enjoying a meal. During my visit, I tried their Chai tea which was deliciously hot but only available in one size—16 oz—which was a bit puzzling given the menu's mention of two sizes.
Very nice location. Comfortable and modern feel. Service time was good and they offer a screen to see wait times for pickup too! Manager seemed very welcoming and was on top of things when it was busy, food presentations was good too. Tomato soup in bread bowl tasted great and the two Green Goddess salads we got were very fresh. Minus one star for no green tea :(

When I first walked in the cashier was giving me dirty looks and wouldn’t speak to me. I ordered a plain sausage and egg sandwich to go they put everything on it I didn’t want and didn’t give me my cookie. I came here for breakfast at work so I had to go and can’t go back to get my refund otherwise I would. I threw out my sandwich couldn’t even eat it. Just a waste of 12 dollars. I’m not sure why they gave me these troubles.

Stopped by here on our way to Galena, Illinois. I am also visiting from Melbourne, Australia and thefood here was ok Nothing special for me. I wasnt blown away for the process I paid for :/.

Standard Panera bread service. The food was good just salty to my liking. Service is minimal/self service (pick up food, put away dishes/plates, etc.). Usually not a lot of people there so there is no wait the times when I visited.

The manager Sarah. Is a complete joke. I forgot to pick up my mobile order yesterday though the drive through. Comes to me with such attitude doesn’t even greet me nothing. Says it’s my fault for not picking it up and that I had to call. I understand that, but treat someone like a human being. Management is a complete joke. They hire adolescents.

Don’t come to this Panera after 8:30 the quality of the soup is lukewarm and the Mac and cheese was so watered down it was soup (yes I’m aware I’m at a soup place but NO Mac and cheese should have that consistency) I drove 40 minutes for this I’m so sad.

We just got a Chai tea to drink here. A little disappointed because it listed 16 and 20 oz available , but was only able to purchase 16oz. Kind of strange to list 2 sizes available when they only allow you to purchase one size. My suggestion? Change the signage or make the larger size available to purchase. BUT the tea was delicious and retained the temperature (hot) for the time it took to drink.

Don't get out here as much as I should but whenever I do, have always had great customer service, awesome fresh bagel sandwiches and coffee. Venue is always kept super clean, extensive menu with reasonable prices and still continue to come back during these difficult times. I'm fortunate to still be employed full time and am able to support my family as well as ailing businesses such as these guys. As long as EBB keeps serving up their famous bagels & coffee with great service, I'll continue to show my support.

Do not go here for just a cup of coffee. I stood in line for several minutes behind bagel orders and when I got to the counter told the woman that I was just getting a cup of coffee. She said “ok,” and nothing more. I assumed she was just there to pull bagels, being behind the bagel counter. I moved forward in line and when I got to the register the (different) woman behind the register asked if I was “John”(or some other name for the order she had in her hand) I said no, but the guy behind me in line said yes, that’s me. The cashier asked if I could let the guy go ahead of me. I said “all I want is a coffee, can I do that quickly?” The cashier told me I had to go back to the bagel counter to order, behind several people who had been in line. I waited, got to the counter, and asked for a medium coffee. Now the bagel woman tells me I have to get my cup from the cashier, which means waiting longer in the same line. By now I am losing my patience a bit and a manager turns to ask what going on. I explain that I’ve been shuttled between the two counters and I just want a coffee. He is impatient, and Tells me in the future all order should be taken at the bagel counter. At this point I remind the bagel lady that I did mention to her that all I wanted was a coffee. She had an opportunity at that point to take my order and didn’t. And, even if that is the place to order a coffee, why would you have to continue to wait in line to pay to get a cup? Furthermore, when I got to the register the first time why could she have not just given me the cup? The coffee was all self serve so the manager did hand me a cup for coffee on him. I appreciate the gesture, but at no point did anyone take any responsibility for the confusion or apologize to me for the poor experience. I did serve myself coffee. Unfortunately the pitcher labelled 1/2 & 1/2 was definitely milk and Sugar and equal are the only sweeteners (not my preference but okay). Other customers at the self service area were also disappointed by the lack of 1/2 & 1/2 but I wasn’t about to go stand in line again. Won’t be returning.

Used to be my favorite spot to get breakfast on the weekend, I got Einstein's at least once a week for the past 2 years. Lately been very disappointed. The past 3 times I've gone (I always do a mobile pick up order) they have COMPLETELY screwed up my sandwich. I am a vegetarian and always get the Garden Avocado, the past 3 times they have given me a bacon sandwich... that doesn't even have Avocado on it so idk how they could possibly mistaken that. I thought 1 time was a fluke, okay it happens. The next 2 after that is just ridiculous. That's on me though for not checking my sandwich before I leave the store, but i feel i should be able to assume I got the right sandwich I ordered. Very disappointed.

I love my bagels and my experience here offered a great selection of savory bagels and great tasting cream cheeses on said bagels! Service was always with a smile and the staff were friendly. My only complaint come from one who uses the internet during most of my outings. With internet dropping occasionally, mixed in with internet speeds on average of 1 Mbps, I didn't find this place to be a conducive environment to do my online buisness. But that being said, this place of bagels had some amazing options to satisfy your bagel itch!

Nestled along the scenic banks of the Des Plaines River, Riverside Cafe is a beloved gem that captures the hearts of locals and visitors alike. This award-winning cafe boasts a delightful atmosphere perfect for enjoying quality coffee with friends or family. The menu features an array of specialty drinks crafted from locally roasted beans, ensuring each sip is a treat. During our recent staycation near Great America, we stumbled upon Riverside Cafe and were instantly charmed by its inviting vibe.
I was visiting from Florida and relied on Google reviews to find a great spot for breakfast — and I’m so glad I chose Riverside Cafe! From the moment our server, Xochitl, greeted us with her warm and welcoming attitude, I knew we were in the right place. My iced salted caramel latte was made perfectly — I nearly finished it before our food even arrived! I ordered the avocado toast and made a couple of substitutions, and everything came out exactly as I’d hoped and tasted absolutely delicious. My husband ordered the steak and eggs with a waffle and really enjoyed his meal as well. From the friendly service to the tasty food, our experience at Riverside Cafe was all-around wonderful. Highly recommend!

First time visit to this café. Plenty of menu options for those that enjoy pancakes or a savory breakfast. I enjoyed the steak Skillet which tasted delicious. The riverside eggs Benedict was a savory mix of pork and avocado with eggs. The lattes we had were the S'more and mazapan which tasted amazing. Thanks to Xochitl for a wonderful service. Avg. cost per person would sit around $25.

We also ordered coffee, americano and some children drinks. The drinks were made well and the presentation was pretty cool as well. All in all a really nice place to eat.

Manager has the personality of a wet noodle and the customer service skills of a dead rat. Coworker went to pick up an order and told them the pickup info they forgot about him left him sitting there for 20 min. In that time the order cancelled because of time. They told him that I was the one who cancelled. When I went to go back to the restaurant the manager said oh well you have to order and pay again nothing else I can do at all. Even though everything was there mistake.

Went through the drive through, very clearly ordering a 6 piece nugget meal with a frozen coke, and a 10 piece nugget meal with a root beer. Intercom person confirms the order, all is well. I pay, but am not given a receipt. At the pickup window, they give me a bag with only a root beer. I said I also had a frozen coke, but said that was incorrect and wouldn’t give it to me. Pulled away, paid 17 dollars for a total of 16 nuggets, a small root beer, and a fry. At that point, I feel like the least I could be given would be the frozen coke I ordered. It ain’t my fault the person taking my order doesn’t know how to do their job 🤷

We went to McDonald’s on August 17th, and we were highly disappointed when we went in that day. At first we were waiting on our mobile order and we waited for over 15 minutes inside. While waiting water dropped onto my head due to some condensation on the ceiling so we moved from the spot. We finally got our order but it was missing multiple things! We were missing a happy meal, a 4 piece nugget, and 2 of the 3 cookies we ordered. We went back and the server got mad saying that she would call us when it was done. 5 minutes later we still didn’t have our food so we went up again and turns out the food was ready just not packed up. Horrible service.

McDonald's is a beloved fast-food institution that has been serving up delicious burgers and fries for years. Recently, I had the pleasure of ordering a large batch of Happy Meals for some enthusiastic kids at T Elite Martial Arts, and the experience was seamless! They provided a convenient box to carry everything, making it easy to treat the little ones. While they did forget the apples this time around, it didn’t dampen our spirits. The joy on those kids' faces made it all worthwhile!
This is the second time this summer we have ordered a large quantity of happy meals (all with specific wants because we love our camp kids), and it has been so easy. They even give us a huge box to carry everything. They did forget the apples this time but the kids will survive. Thank you all for accommodating us and make the process so easy and smooth. We love being able to give this extra special treat to the kids each session. 🙏🏻 T Elite Martial Arts

Everybody loves McDonald's! For a quick in-between fix it's fine, it's fast food - & fast it is.

7/26/24 @ 8:45am Does your staff not read and anticipate online mobile orders? Spent more time correcting the order to them than waiting in drivethru. Unacceptable. With google reviews, it will either be five stars if I had a wonderful chat and received good services from the owner. Or tank the business down if the service and time fails the customer. There are more employees at this location I am reviewing right now than Lake Bluff (order always comes out fantastic & they accommodated a previous same day order i made from waukegan - fountain square during a holiday for free), Waukegan-fountain square (coffee is always watery but in my experience, i’ve never had to play the waiting game with them at the window), Gurnee (across SixFlags, order comes out and service is fantastic).
