When I say best latte, I mean best latte.. when any family or friends visit from the burbs or central Illinois I ALWAYS take them here and they say the same thing! (Not only about the lattes but the little hot buns filled with yummy egg scramble!) Never been disappointed here - really is the most delicious.
Great coffee drinks, cool atmosphere and nice service. Thanks for the fun refreshers! We'll be back again for "After Dark."

My husband and I come in at least once a week for our favorite coffee and croissants. Kind and laid-back staff PLUS sum good coffee and pastries. Say no more ???????? Elaine’s should be your new go-to

Excellent coffee and toasted cheese on sourdough. Highly recommend you pay them a visit. Right next to the hotel and pay attention or you may miss it. Parking out front. Monday was a great day to go. Not much traffic.

The nicest people work here. I appreciate both the morning and night teams. The coffee was delicious and the drinks were dreamy.

Yikes. Has potential but barrista needs to do a better job. Portafilter was spraying all over the place. Not a great espresso

Great little place for a short meetup and they serve drinks after 6pm.

We came to Elaine's twice. Once in the morning for coffee and once in the evening for drinks. Both times we enjoyed it!

Tiny shop with great coffee and a small but delicious food selection. I ended up coming here two times, and everything I had was delicious. My latte was well made and my tea well steeped. I also sampled some of my partner's chai and it was better than I expected. The Kolaches were served hot and the staff was very friendly. Small place and a small staff, so expect a wait if they're busy and you might have to take your food to go, but it's still worth it.

Coffee is great, but both Saturday and Sunday here crazy lines and short handed 1 barista, gotta get them some help guys! - 30 minutes to order a drip coffee is no go

Panini was great, ask to have it heated up!
Great coffee as well. Highly recommend

This review is only about the drinks at Elaine's - because they speak for themselves! My favorite place to order Chai. Their version is definitely unique - a smooth drink but it still has some consistency to it. Every time i've ordered from here, my drink is gone in around 7 minutes. Unfortunate, because I'm always wanting more - but obviously a great sign. They have an awesome latte too!

Had the best soy cappuccino so far, made by the barista who wasn’t that fast, but he made it taste like I had all the time in the world. Amazing. Great view over the park in the beautiful historic building of the Lincoln Hotel.

Bacon and egg crepe was good and the pumpkin spice latte was the most pumpkiny I ever recall. Nice place with limited seating.
