After seeing them on TV I was really let down after wanting to come here for months. Thought the cone donut would be fluffy, it was flat and the dough was flavorless. I had it filled with nutella and oreo on the outside. Ended up throwing about half out because it didn't seem worth the calories. Coffee was good though, this the 2 star review.
The Polish kurtos donut is phenomenal. If your in this area, you need to stop by this cafe and give these treats a try. Their fun and delicious.
The spring cakes are delicious and go really well with the coffee! I got a sprinkles w/ Nutella and a cinnamon and sugar w/ Nutella spring cake and a coffee. The sprinkles one was more crunchy and both were not overly sweet. Combine that with the slightly darker roast coffee and the combination of slightly sweet and slightly bitter go wonderfully together! The dough they use is what sets this appart from other places. It's got the perfect balance of sweetness and savory. Be prepared to wait a little bit. Not only is this place popular (get there early to avoid long lines) but each one is made after ordering (which takes a few minutes) so they come out seaming hot. Finally, the owners are super nice and very welcoming and friendly. I definitely recommend going here and look forward to returning to try other items on the menu.
Great chimney cake, best to eat hot on the spot, love it! Recommend the nutella, sugar and crushed pecans.

Emilia definitely has skills. She did an amazing job with my wife's cake. I sent her a pic of how I wanted the cake and Emilia was able to make it look exactly like the picture. Plus she put her own spin on it and added some extra details, which she did an excellent job. My wife was stunned and the reaction on her face was priceless and she was very surprised. I also gotta give Emilia props for giving me great advice and recommendations concerning the cake. Her feedback and input was definitely appreciated

We had a great experience at the cafe. I brought my family with two young kids and they were very accommodating.
Lovely stuff, very cute place, delicious desserts.... and they make kurtos, can't tap that
This is a treasure to have in Barrington, though I am sad to hear it will be closing soon. The staff were very friendly, and the donut/chimney cake was probably the best donut I've ever had, anywhere. The cafe is beautiful and fun to sit in while enjoying an extraordinary treat. The donuts are made from fresh dough (which we literally saw out to to rise in the kitchen), and cooked to order. So good!
