Reviews for Fairgrounds Coffee & Tea in Oak Park, IL
Love the design of this cafe, very unique in a warm and welcoming way. Their customers are steady so the staff could do with... another person or so to help serve, but the service was still good, and the staff nice despite having their hands full. I onlygot a drink, but their food does look good. They actually have a kitchen, something that has become a rarity in most cafe storesnow. Their food is freshly made, so not necessarily just frozen and thrown in an oven, which is a refreshing change. You canstill get a great cup of coffee, but, instead of settling for second grade cafe food that makes your stomach curl in protest,you actually get authentic cafe food made fresh for you that you can enjoy without having to pay for an actual restaurant visit.You still get that cafe vibe that's great for inspiration, studying, and just relaxing, while also enjoying their unique coffeesand food items. They do also sell coffee beans in a bag for you to take home, as well as some other cute coffee items such ashats, matcha bowls, and t shirts. They have a variety of drinks, including teas brewed fresh that can be made hot or iced, andmany flavors for their coffees. Great place, and if you live in the area, unlike I do, I recommend taking advantage of itsproximity to you because you're definitely lucky to be close to such an adorably unmatched coffee shop. And if you're justvisiting, like me, I still recommend checking it out, it'll be worth it. (They also have swings by the counter!) Read more
This small coffee shop is a great place to collect your thoughts, grab a cup of gourmet coffee, something to eat, and chill. The... atmosphere is always friendly and welcoming. It has a great vibe of community and business. I go there every Thursday to unwindand catch up on personal business. The next time you're in Oak Park I highly suggest giving it a try. Read more

Got a breakfast sandwich, a breakfast burrito, and a couple drinks. It wasn't all that special. Flavor was just okay, nothing... spectacular. Nice atmosphere and a good number of tables to relax. Read more
Delicious!! Perfect area to work/study with an amazing coffee menu! Such a big selection, it took me awhile to choose. I also... ordered the burrito (which I totally recommend ) Read more
