So, today is day 2. Again this morning I stopped to get coffee before getting on the train. This time I actually left on time so I wasn't running for the train (for once).
I promise that at some point this blog will be about more than just coffee shops in Elmhurst..(although we do have a few - we like our coffee) haha.
Today I stopped by Brewpoint Coffee House. What an adorable place. I was able to talk with Melissa, their owner for a minute as well. They have only been open for 7 weeks so far!
The things I loved the most about Brewpoint were:
1. The atmosphere: The inside is really cute and comfortable. It has a global vibe to it. It seems like a great place where you can hang out to work, chat, etc. There were two people who were on laptops in the coffee shop and it seemed like a comfy place to hang out. I am excited to bring the family here.
2. The coffee: I had a latte and it was delicious. The coffee tasted very rich and my latte was a perfect MIX of coffee and milk. I have had lattes that fast much more like steamed milk than anything else. This just tasted like rich coffee. They seemed to have a great selection of coffee and coffee drinks. I will try something more interesting next!
3. Food: I had the pumpkin bread which was also very delicious. I noticed that they had a fairly big selection of "gluten free" items as well. I don't eat gluten free, but I know that a lot of people do and would love to have more that one choice!
I was actually able to take some photos of the inside. I am not the best photographer so no judgements! You can see how cute it is!
As I mentioned below, I will go to more than coffee shops. I do think it is awesome that we have a nice coffee culture in this town.
Also - I posted this blog last night to Elmhurst ETalk which made me a little nervous. I am excited that I am receiving such positive response! Sounds like a few people may join me in this challenge!!
