Peet's Coffee

Overall a good experience. Lots of room to spread out and get some work done with lots of seating. Espresso was great with a hint of sweetness behind it. Paid a little over $3 which is reasonable. Bakery looked enticing to try out. Staff is nice and service is quick. Not a bad coffee shop if you're in downtown Downers Grove!

This is such a neat Peet's Coffee location right at the corner of the intersection. There is a good amount of seating and the employees were friendly and welcoming. The Vanilla Latte tasted great!

Regarding Peet’s Coffee (Downtown Downers):

Very upsetting experience at Peet’s today. I am always visiting friends in Chicago, so today a friend decided to visit me in Downers. I brought her to Peet’s for coffee and to see our downtown.

Within 10 minutes of sitting and getting ourselves settled, the manager asked if we were waiting for someone. We kindly replied no and he said he was just checking in. I did not see him approach any other patrons.

About 10 minutes later, my friend and I had decided on purchasing some waters to start, and were looking over the different coffees. The manager approached our table once more and asked if we’d be buying anything. I asked if this was a requirement, and if there was signage we’d missed and he said no, but “this is a business”, and he’s running a business so we can’t just sit here. He also informed us that “Peet’s is cracking down on college students”. (I and my friend are about 10 years post college, but thanks for the compliment)

For an establishment where half of the staff is wearing political statements on their aprons, it surprises me that “cracking down on college students” and turning away those who take a little longer to pick a coffee is so high on the list of tasks.

Very odd and non hospitable behavior that I wouldn’t expect of any business, yet alone a neighborhood coffee shop.

I recommend visiting Starbucks across the tracks (staff is friendly and inviting), or getting on the train to Chicago for a unique, inviting cafe visit in the future.

The manager has done a terrific job of making sure my business does not return.

Great place to get good food and beverages while relaxing in a comfortable place. The staff is very friendly and accommodating.

A wonderful spot for coffee in downtown Downers Grove. The service is excellent. They have plentiful seating and it's a nice place to chill out

The place has a great ambiance, the barista was beautiful and had a wonderful smile. The coffee ( vanilla latte is 4/5). The service and the smile earned you 5 stars 🤩.
Keep up the good work 👍.

Nice atmosphere, affable staff, good selection of hot and cold drinks. I always get a lot of work done at Peet's.

Very cozy and relaxing coffee spot. Tasty coffee and wonderful, friendly staff. Spacious and very clean. Wall decorations and lighting fixtures bring some tranquility yet rustic. I enjoyed sipping my coffee with their comfy seats.

such a cute place to come and study/work. great experience coming in after not being in for so long. they were sold out of twist i wanted but the barista was so kind in offering other options and letting me know when to come back when it’s in stock! also was informed with the rewards app and all the benefits! the vibes here are a 10/10.

This is a nice coffee shop but the baristas are the ones that make this a good place. I had two lovely ladies help us. Got the pineapple, citrus green tea is a good drink.
