So, one Saturday morning I decided to try this local coffee and doughnut all this rave is about. Unfortunately, for me the coffee was not good at all, unless you like weak coffee. For the money I coulda/shoulda went to Starbucks across the street. I also tried the veggie breakfast burrito, horrible. They warmed it in the microwave and the middle was ice cold. The doughnut was awesome though. Service was nice.

Wife and I used to accept the high prices for the love of Intelligencia coffee. But one morning my wife received her coffee with a note that said "I love you." From the male barista. I called the owner. As a woman, I thought she would address this sexual harassment. But she didnt. There is a Starbucks across the street. Its cheaper and they wont hit on your wife.

Was trying to find good coffee on the way to the eye doctor. So hard to find good coffee way in Naperville were I currently reside. This place is great. It has great coffee, and on the weekend they have Do-Rite Donuts! I used to live by Do-Rite and I missed them. Im so glad I found a place slightly closer to me with good coffee ( and donuts!).

I love the location, atmosphere and the coffee (and yes the service is goodd too) The thing that sets it apart from Starbucks is its rommy, comfortable and, homey. The only complaint I have is that the downstairs closes earlier than the upstairs but theres no signage indicating this. So, my work gets interrupted prematurely.

Great customer service. Love going here. Finally a place that serve GREAT craft coffee that isnt all the way up in the north side of Chicago. I hope people appreciate what these people do. Not a big box chain, THIS is what coffee is supposed to taste like! Definitely a must if you enjoy great coffee and an owner that cares!

Great little coffee joint in downtown Forest Park. Good place to go for great coffee and other locally made donuts/pastries. Great place to go and work (relaxing basement with couches and chairs)

This place opened a week or two ago. While I was doing some work on Madison Street I popped by just to check it out. The atmosphere was really nice. I got a Chai Latte and it was very good!

Great atmosphere for getting work done, fantastic coffee, and reliable service. Just wish the pastries werent so expensive. Over $5 for a small GF cinnamon roll is a bit absurd.

Enjoyable atmosphere with good coffee at a great price. They also gluten free donuts, which is a nice touch even if they are a bit expensive.

Quick and friendly service. Better tasting drip than Starbucks. Prices seem reasonable for a main street coffee shop.

The best latte that I have ever had. Very polite service. Unlike busy chains they say thank you when receiving tips.

Intelligencia coffee, gluten free bakery items, and alternative milk options - what more could you ask for?
