"Ordered pumpkin spice latte & ham/cheese croissant. Well the latte was ok but the croissant was not what I paid for…it was just plain (no cheese or ham). It tasted just fine so I ate it plus I didn’t feel like driving back to get the right item."

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had such a wonderful experience at Fairgrounds in Oak Park! This is actually my second morning in a row coming here—not just because the food is consistently fresh and delicious, but because the staff truly make the experience exceptional. From the moment I walked in, the barista/cashier and the food runner were warm, friendly, and uplifting. Their positive energy, smiles, and genuine customer care set the perfect tone for my morning. On top of that, the barista’s skills were on point, and the service was fast, attentive, and welcoming. The ambience is perfect for a relaxed morning, and the whole vibe feels both chill and inviting. It’s rare these days to find a spot where the food, drinks, and atmosphere are matched by such incredible customer service. I truly hope the front-line staff I interacted with today get the recognition they deserve—they made my visit memorable and will definitely keep me coming back. Highly recommend Fairgrounds Oak Park for anyone looking for great food, coffee, and even better people!"

"Great place to meet for coffee or breakfast, one of the few places in Oak Park that are suitable for a business conversation. So many cafes are too small, too loud, or too inconvenient to get to/park. It's spacious and has lots of room between tables for privacy. Drink choices are creative. I had the turmeric latte and egg breakfast bowl and it was delicious, very filling and freshly made. It's not a super fast place though, so don't go if you're in a hurry."

"I've been here before and it was a decent place for a decent coffee but this morning I got here early to study and by 7:15 about 10 to 15 girls came in, with their Starbucks and took over the place. They had no regard for anyone else in the place. They were filming tick tock videos and changed the whole vibe of the place. This doesn't seem like a good business model, being the playground for patrons of a rival coffee shop, but who am I to judge. Oh, a paying customer, so I will judge and will find a different place to go in the future."
