Viator Coffee Co.

Delicious coffee! I love their lavender and their matcha is yummy too! Friendly staff! And the baristas are very creative ! Nice place to work as well!

Amazing! This is how all coffee & espresso should taste. My friend got a cold brew and I ordered a rose mocha latte. I can't wait to try their other lattes. And the baristas were so friendly and helpful. Such a great place!!!

The staff is really friendly, and the coffee is high quality. Most coffee places in the area have nothing but hard chairs and ugly uncomfortable seating. Viator has a nice blend of comfy couches/chairs but also has plenty of tables to use as a work station. Its location is set beautifully next a courtyard and across from the river. Honestly this is the sort of place downtown Elgin needs. I love it here and cant wait to come back!!

These guys are shaking up the coffee game in elgin. The owner Austin has worked in specialty coffee for over 10 years. That's significantly better then the buttered up "Starbucks" experience that other coffeeshop & bakery owners have in the local area. With that specialty coffee experience Austin brings together a team made up of baristas from daily projects and some of the big places from the Chicagoland area. This crew is focused on always improving and never being complacent.. this is the cafe Elgin has needed. The coffee itself is from Halfwit who roast for Dollop and the Wormhole.. they are also doing guest roasters which aren't no name roasters. At the moment they have Cat & Cloud, which if you know, you know. Viator exceeds with their brewing method as well by having an actual Italian espresso machine and the espresso is dailed in mutiple times a day to get tasty shots of espresso. Cafe Revive didn't even come close to what the crew here is accomplishing with their coffee. The knowledge and technical skills are bar none in comparison. The space that they have built out is intimate and comfortable, without feeling cramped or dated like other shops in the area. Their baked good done by Ally are exceedingly better then the ones made down the street at Arabica. Seriously these guys are worth your time.

Best coffee in the region. Ransom is the head barista— can explain fascinating details about each bean they use— from growing to washing, to roasting, to brewing. Really makes the experience an extra level up! I highly recommend their cortados or a secret menu item— one and one— a shot of espresso and a mini cortado pulled from the same doppio.

I just visited Viator Coffee for the first time on their grand opening and I had an amazing experience! The employees were so kind and helpful and my iced salted caramel latte was so so so so delicious! Yum!! The space is beautiful and you can also sit outside and it’s just an awesome place to either work at and hang with friends at! I can’t wait to come back again!

Honestly this is such a cute coffee place! They truly dedicate themselves to the craft and they absolutely own it! I was on the fence of ordering an iced green tea but was persuaded to try their chai which is made in house! Hands down the best chai I have ever had! I will definitely be making more trips to downtown to support a local coffee business like this! Thank you guys for being so friendly and passionate baristas!

A beautiful cup of coffee served by beautiful souls. It’s in a little food hall next to the fountain. Worth the trip

Great coffee, friendly and knowledgeable staff, and good ambiance. Tried the Cortado (excellent and served with sparkling water) and a Peruvian pour-over while in town for a work trip. Will definitely be back when I visit!

Today was my boyfriend and I's first visit to Viator and we will definitely be back! I got a vegan cranberry orange scone and my boyfriend got a oat milk matcha latte with vanilla. Both were delicious! The location itself is also super cute and inviting.
