Yes, the Newport Cafe at the corner of Waukegan Road and Route 22 in Bannockborn!  I'm there every Monday morning at 9 with a group of retired educators.

The Newport does their own roasting, so you're likely to have quite fresh coffee, and they are truly the nicest people.

Canoes Coffee located inside of Eloise Cafe brews Intelligentsia Coffee.  I believe Joe is the name of the owner, really nice guy.  They have a nice Faema / Super Jolly setup and great pastries!  They are located on the southeast corner of route 60 and 21.

Dunno, Since I started working in Lake Forest / Lincolnshire (1 1/2 years), it's always been Eloise Cafe.
