Hometown is one of my absolute favorite places in the northern Chicago suburbs. They have figured out local design with corporate efficiency. Food is , is even better. I can’t recommend them enough!

A great place for fresh juices, smoothies, healthy bowls, and wraps. Service is very good and helpful. Nice casual feel and seems food is high quality.

Good like their other locations. Would be nice if they installed a bike rack like Caputo's used to have.

A well-needed casual cafe in Lake Forest outside of the typical Starbucks offerings. Great size, nice patio in the warmer months. Menu is pretty large. Coffee, smoothies, and pastries are fantastic (the cookies are quite decadent). Service is great - while you order at the counter, your food is brought to your table (and cleaned up afterwards)!
My only gripe is that the entrees are pretty bland. Bagels are flavorless, sandwiches need more spreads/seasoning. It's like the don't use salt/butter or something.They are fine, but quite expensive for being mediocre. I guess you are paying for the service more than the food. 2 coffees, 2 breakfast sandwiches, and 1 pastry to share between my wife and I was close to $50 before tip...
