The food and coffee was absolutely delicious. Usually not a person who loves a lot of potatoes, but their potatoes in the panino was flavored perfectly with an amazing texture.
Really enjoyed the cold brew here. Better than the chains Ive tried and totally customizable with different syrups, milks, and creamers. Great place to work or study and you can get any type of treat youre feeling - coffee, sandwiches, breakfast, bakery items, smoothies, or ice cream. The turkey pesto sandwich I got was delicious and big enough that I was able to share it with someone else.
Cozy vibes, Taylor swift music, best chai I’ve ever had, big tables, lots of light, great merch, just yes.
My partner and I stopped by on Saturday and shared a raspberry black iced tea and an iced oat milk latte and they were both delicious. The atmosphere was lovely and the staff were both friendly and respectful of safety measures. We loved the experience and will be back! :D
I’d thought I’d stop squealing about this place after my first few visits but a year later I still do the same thing. In all seriousness the only con about this place is that you will get addicted!I drive far to come here and they never ever ever ever ever disappoint. They are CONSISTENT, their staff is friendly, their food and drinks are BOMB, the aesthetics are photo worthy. I just want to pick this place up and put it in my backyard.I love getting the monetary breakfast burrito ( my boyfriend and I place 3 orders so we don’t argue about we gets to eat the last one).The Oreo frappe is AMAZING and it doesn’t even make sense.Although I have only ordered carry out from here I am excited to know that they are now doing indoor seating!!! Very cute and cozy and quiet place to study or read! Always cannot wait for my next visit there.
Cute shop, lots of sitting space. Coffee, ice cream, a few pastries, food menu - a great local joint!
Stopped here cuz I was early for an appt. THIS IS THE CUTEST COFFEE SHOP! I had an iced latte & sat awhile to take in the environment. After my appt. I went BACK for lunch & the food was so yummy! I ordered a chickpea patty panini w/ sun dried tomatoes, artichoke hearts & spinach..... Yum!!!!! I will 1000% be back when I find myself in Antioch again
So quaint and intimate. This will be your new favorite coffee spot. Baristas are awesome! Delicious coffee.
This is a really nice coffee place and lots of great books
I love the little bean. Their drinks are great, especially the honey oat latte. It always smells delightful when you come in the door. Their build your own breakfast sammies are to die for. Its a choice of bread, choice of cheese, choice of two veggies and a choice of meat. It always come with an egg that is always so fluffy and delicious. Then add the other ingredients, it blows my mind every time. I always go for the build your own with croissant, cheddar, carmelized onion, red peppers, and bacon. Super amazing. They also have an amazing chicken salad sandwich that you can spread between two meals. The portions are always satisfying. One selection of drinks are their lemonades. I absolutely love the blended strawberry lemonade. Fresh strawberries, lemonade, ice, blended into a slushie. I go to the little bean every Saturday.
My favorite coffee shop to stop by when I’m back home. Overall great space, cute decor and good coffee. I appreciate that they have strict covid protocol. Also have a good selection of books as well
Today was my first time here. Cozy and welcoming, pleasent workers and good prices. Iced coffee, brown sugar cimmimon..yummy! Very good! I will be back.
I loved this place!! I got a mocha and it was perfect not too sweet!! Coffee so smooth!
Stopped for lunch . Had a salad and chicken salad sandwich. All homemade.
I love coffee and the coffee here is amazing.
Who wouldve thought such an artesanal café in Antioch downtown, 2 hours north of Chicago and I mean it with compliments. Very impressed with the café decor, gourmet food and coffees. They also have great selection of artesanal candles, preserves, all things coffee and other gifts.
Very cute, clean, and relaxing environment to chill and catch up on conversation or a good book.
If youve been in Antioch for any length of time, you know that theres plenty of places for the 40+ crowd and quite a bit now for the under 21 crowd. Its a weird place to be a 20-something. Little Bean is one of the few places that feels good for that demographic.Additionally, the staff here is amazing. Everyone is always so friendly and accommodating. They have such unique menu items that you cant find anywhere else in town.Our community is truly better because of this business.
Great environment - cozy and eclectic.
Cyclist Friendly and great selection of coffee and other items
I stop by our local coffee shop to pick up a latte nearly every weekend. They don’t open until 8am on the weekends, which means I have to come back after my yoga class (which ends at 7:45). I learned they get their baked goods from my favorite bakery in Chicago, Sweet Connections. Grab a delicious donut next time you’re there!
This is our go-to coffee spot. Since Angela took over (and it became the Little Bean) you can see the investment in both the products and the shop itself. Food is great, way beyond normal coffee shop. Cant wait for the inside to open back up. Great space for meetings!
I love the cozy small town feel of Little Bean. There are always familiar, friendly faces to see, great coffee and awesome service! I also love looking around to see all the odds and ends they sell.
Very cute, cozy environment with delicious drinks and breakfast burritos that are made to perfection! Not to mention the staff are friendly and their recommendations are spot on! Will definitely be back!!!
Awesome place! I stop by for coffee almost everyday, and they make you feel welcome! such a cute place :)
Chicken salad sandy is fantastic also try the trio salad. fresh and tasty. Very friendly service
Excellent Chai Lattes! They have really good sandwiches.
Quaint coffee shop with friendly staff.
Went in with my mom around 11am on a Sunday. They’ve recently changed names maybe even management and or ownership I’m not sure; it was cafe book now little bean. They have a little display case with the quiche and a few muffins or treats. I wasn’t really thrilled with what they had as far as selection. The only quiche wasn’t labeled and labels were on things that weren’t even in there. I ordered a veggie bfast burrito but they were out of tortillas (There’s a grocery store a block away and there’s 3 staff there). I think the owner was there. Never asked how we liked what we’d ordered. My potatoes in the burrito turned bowl were way too salty. I really liked the tea latte I ordered. Good ambiance and overall style, seems like it would work out great for a small group to meet. I’ll probably try another place next. Truth be told, I’d go back here just without high expectations.
Been coming to this cafe for over 6 years and honestly it’s everything you could ever want in a cozy (but spacious) cafe. The recent remodel and change of ownership has done nothing but improve an already great thing. Great atmosphere, lots of space to work or have meetings, great reading spots, great book selection, and the cutest (reasonably) priced home decor and gifts!! And I haven’t even gotten to the COFFEE/TEA/HOT FOOD MENU/BAKERY/ICE CREAM YET!! All amazing. Wide variety of selections and I have yet to be disappointed. Best breakfast burritos and chicken salad sandwiches I’ve ever had. Friendly staff, would recommend anyone and everyone to stop in if you are in the area! Shop local.
Very quaint coffee shop. Good coffee and snack options. Could easily sit here and talk, read or do some work. Won’t blow you away but better than a Starbucks.
Average coffee a little pricey IMO
This is where I get my coffee fix. Recently discovered that Little Bean also does amazing breakfast sandwiches!
Great place with a solid menu which includes gluten free and vegan options
Love this place! Amazingly delicious coffee. Good for a treat since its expensive. I love the iced white mocha :)
Love this place! Good food and drinks. Decent prices. Love the environment. Super cozy. Love all the tables available. Great place for studying or relaxing with a warm drink! Definitely a favorite!
Prices too hide. Bought latte at $5+ in to go cup. Asked for whip cream, was told that would be an extra charge. A friend ordered regular coffee at $2 and was asked if she wanted mug (which I was not.) Apparently a mug is 12 oz and my latte was 16 oz. With a mug you get a free refill. Since we sat for a bit, I asked for a small warm up of regular coffee and was told I would have to pay for it. So a $5+ coffee cannot get a small amount of regular hot coffee, but a $2 cup can... doesnt make sense to me. And...extra $ for a dollop of whip cream. I wont be going back there. Im headed to Cafe Latte on 173 and 83.
Super friendly service, serene environment, all around homey decors, great place to meet up, socialize, do homework, professional meetings, drink coffee and ‘shoot the breeze’
Exceptional staff, very very friendly. If you go in more than one time a year, I can guarantee theyll remember you and your name. Food and drink quality is off the charts, the shop could be completely empty and have no atmosphere and it would still be worth it. The atmosphere itself is also drawing. One could spend an hour just walking around and looking at all the unique decorations, and just feel the essence of what a classic coffee shop is. Highly recommend.
Nice little place to have some non-mass-produced coffee drinks or maybe a sandwich and iced tea. Good is very good. Interior is the definition of cozy - mixed with antique items (for sale) and, of course, books.
I love quaint cafes like this, especially when books are involved! Great food and coffee. Great music and atmosphere, very chill. I need to go more often.
Great place to meet friends, read a book, or get some work done. The coffee is delicious, and so are the wraps!
Great place to chill, relax and get work done. Good coffee and food along with a very pleasant staff.
The food and service was top-notch.I had an outstanding waitress and management went above and beyond to make sure that I enjoyed my visit. I would highly recommend this place.
Angela and her crew are the best. They takes great care of me and my co-workers every time we come in.
Love their variety. Always a plus they offer gluten free choices..
So cute inside and they have great food too. Nice selection of unique gifts as well.
Best coffee shop in town. Very quaint & comfy. I love this place! The staff, food, & beverages are phenomenal!
They have amazing coffee and food and great employees who are super nice...me and my friends go there all the time and always have a fun time there 😊
Its great coffee. A little hipster for me.
Cafe Book is the best place to meet a friend for coffee or get work done! The drinks are great and so are their soups and salad.
Cozy atmosphere, tasty drinks and food and nice people.
Great coffee shop with good food and personal service! It reminds me of the old Chicago coffee shops. Super cozy!
When you say you will take a scoop of ice cream thats exactly what you get a measured scoup. And for the price I could have gotten gotten a half gallon at a store
Great little lunch place. We are always happy to support our local businesses instead of the chain stores.
Very friendly shop!! Breakfast sandwiches there are great!!
Ive been coming here for over 10 years now and I still love coming here. I love the remodel, and I love that they serve Annodynes coffee! Staff is always friendly as well. Great little cafe.
Cute place! Easy to sit around and read while enjoying a nice latte.
This place looks like its under construction but the southwest turkey sandwich was outstanding
Cute and cozy. Great place to catch up with a girlfriend. Im happy to support local shops.
Nice atmosphere. Good ice cream and coffee.
I love it here but you have to wait a while for your food because they usually only have one person working.
Great place for a cup of coffee or delicious Fresh Sandwiches and more
Very cute place. Unfortunately my chai was made with powder and had a fake taste and the paper straw was useless before I drank half of it.
Beautifly decorated. Warmest atmosphere to just relax, have a cup of coffee, tea or latte. Books available to be read its WONDERFUL
Rewlly great homey cafe with nice staff and great drinks! I tried a lavender coffe and it was amazing! I stayed in here for a couple hours and relaxed. Amazing cafe!
Great place to work but the coffee is just okay.
Nice and quiet in the afternoon. Nice baristas. Homey feeling. The eats are tasty.
This is a great little shop. It feels a little cluttered but thats what theyre going for. The selection is pretty good but Ive really only had some of the drinks and the gelato, which was delicious.
This café is so good! I have been here several times. Every drink, whether it be something simple or more of a concoction, has been great. The same goes for the food. The décor is very cool and relaxing, and there are some interesting antiques on display/for sale. If youre happening through this small town you should definitely check out Cafe Book.
Jerry is putting a lot into fixing the place up working late nights. Nice job Jerry.
Awsome food! The turkey artichoke dip sandwich is my favorite. The coffee is great too! I love their apple chai lattes!
I called one day about 10mins to close and asked if I could put in my order now and then come pick it up just before they closed...they did it and that was super nice!
Great place for lunch or coffee. Relaxing setting perfect for meeting a friend or just relaxing by yourself. Awesome food too.
A great place to go and study or get work done! Staff is very nice and their lunch menu is great! The real winner is their chai latte!
Cozy. Eclectic. Several rooms are available with couches, comfy chairs, kitchen tables with chairs, etc. Great for meeting up with friends. Wi-Fi is available.
Sweet server, gluten free option ok, needs a good scrubbing!
Very nice relaxing place,,get coffee/donut or buy sandwich lunch then sit and read,,
Warm, inviting, and both my food and coffee tasted great!
Nice place for coffee and some great sandwiches. Plus they have a store inside as well.
Wonderful atmosphere & truly friendly service. Great drinks & sandwiches too!
Such a cute and cozy place! If I lived in the area, this would be a great place to come and read, meet a friend, or do work! The barista was suoer nice and inviting !
Its a nice place to meet someone for a cup and talk about whatever you want.
Love this place for its cozy atmosphere, WiFi with ample outlets, and tables for spreading out your work station. My go-tos are the spinach artichoke mushroom breakfast bagel sandwich, a chai latte (many flavors available), and a fresh scone. ;) I consider the prices a little high, but I understand that the overhead makes the prices fair. Youre paying for the venue as much as the actual food or beverage. Thank you for providing a cozy spot to work or relax in downtown Antioch!
More of a coffee shop than a book store. The joe was excellent and there are a variety of seats from stools at a laptop bar to soft low armchairs
Quiet, small but overall a nice local coffee shop.
Love the nooks and crannies and different rooms you can sit in at this place.
Good food, large portions, neat decor.
Attended a wedding shower. Everything was perfect!
Good food, friendly people, and such a cozy atmosphere. Just a few reasons I love this place!
Small, quaint bookstore/gift boutique with great coffee and gelato. You have to visit this place.
Stop by at least once a day - great coffee and sandwiches.
Quaint little coffee and sandwich shop. Eclectic
Great service. Great coffee. Great Chairs. Really. Great
Love this place. Everything is worth the price and delish.
Great, clean, friendly place. Awesome food and coffee
Long time customer, first time trying the southwest Turkey wrap. DELICIOUS!
