Good local cafe
Good local, friendly cafe, with the usual coffee/espresso drinks. I noticed a new tea menu from Mighty Leaf. Fresh muffins, biscotti, cakes and sandwiches available. Nice alternative to the crowded agressiveness of the Starbucks up the street.

I can't review the food, since all I do there is a muffin or big-ass cookie once in awhile with my daily coffee.

Pay internet WiFi service, and occasionally interesting art appears on the walls from local artists.    [06 Jan 2005 14:31:44]

fair trade and local café
friends don't let friends drink Starbucks. instead, try Café Express for the great community atmosphere that most coffeehouses are missing. helpful, friendly service.
i recommend a cappucino, and if you're going to get one, get it with whole milk. fresh-squeezed lemonade or orange juice also on menu.    [16 Aug 2006 18:30:55]

Great Neighborhood Coffee and Tea House
This is Evanston's oldest coffee house. It has a great non-franchise homey feel that captures the neighborhood ambiance. Tasty treats, all the usual lattes and espressos, salads and soups and baked goods. Entertainment some Fridays and Saturdays.    [02 Apr 2007 10:51:07]

You have to check out the great artwork while you are having your favorite drink. Nice that they encourage and show local artists.    [09 Aug 2007 11:01:04]
