A Lake Forest favorite on Wisconsin Avenue blending a coffee bar with a juice and smoothie program, in the heart of the downtown shopping district.

Curator's Note

“Hometown is what makes downtown Lake Forest feel alive on weekday mornings. Half coffee bar, half juice and smoothie counter — the dual menu means it works for whoever you bring with you, and the room is a constant low buzz of regulars.”

The acai bowls are fantastic. Coffee is solid too. Best part of downtown LF.

Great place. Food was good. The egg sandwich could have used a little bit of seasoning and maybe a pinch of salt on the tomatoes for the toast. But overall good and the balsamic glaze was delicious. Picture is of the Caprese Toast. The Ginger Plum iced tea had a nice flavor to it. And the old fashion donut was amazing.

Love this place. We stopped in on our way to the airport. Lovely staff, tasty food and nice atmosphere. Will go back next time I’m in town.

Used to be great, but they are now consistently forgetting one item every time I order carry out (3rd straight order was today). This time the explanation for my missing item was “yeah, we’re out of those today”. So the solution was just not to include or substitute the item? Frustrating to get home without food for one of your kids, then have to go back for that explanation. Order accuracy is your biggest issue right now.

Reliably clean, friendly, fresh and fruitful. Suburban oasis for a chill book read and people watching. They nailed it.

Always busy. The service is always great even when it is busy. The food is great and pretty healthy. They have good gluten free options
