Kava Diem

Love this cafe! Amazing menu with healthy and fresh vegan choices plus the best chai tea latte money can buy in the area. Tried the beet avocado toast today - holy yum!

Almond cardamom cakes....banana bread....WOW!! The coffee is amazing! Can’t wait until you have your whole organic menu going!! Love the river view....super comfortable. Return customers for sure!❤️❤️

Kava Diem is my favourite cafe in the North Shore Chicago area. I have fond memories of running from central St Charles, along the Fox river and then having a coffee at Kava Diem afterwards. I must say that the customer service is fantastic and the coffees delightful. Overall what a lovely experience; I am truly BLESSED.

Today was their first day open (soft-opening). The coffee was good, the owners were incredibly nice, the service was excellent, and the decor inside is beautiful. If they have strong wifi, this will be my go to spot to get away from the office to work! :)

Too bad they were closed down by the authorities. This place has had good service, food, and coffee. I saw the manager today, and she said they could re-open tomorrow.

Great ambiance with excellent food. Really appreciate all the vegan food options. Also, they allow dogs on the outdoor patio, which is awesome. Would definitely come back.

I had a chai tea latte and it tasted great! The staff are all very kind and do a great job at making you feel welcome. The shop is a cute, cozy place to hang out. Highly recommend!

Highest coffee shop prices in Kane County: small cup of tea, $3.50 +tax; Honest Kids juice pouch is well over $3 ($0.50 or less at a grocery store!); cheapest item is small (but delicious GF) single-bite cookies at $1.75+ each. Yes, Great riverside location, nice decor, delicious food (many fine local artisans/chefs), decent kids area, cool staff, but OUCH, those prices...perhaps the upper middle class clientele isn’t bothered as much as I.

Premium everything...no reasonably affordable options.

It well may be that St Charles and the business market/property taxes/prime location are the reason for the high prices here. As I said, Ouch. KD is way above the high ‘Starbucks Standard’ prices.

Nice, cozy, relaxing spot along the river.

I thought nitro coffee was good until I tried the bullet proof at kava diem! Wow, the flavor is off the chain and the buzz is just right! Regulated caffeine, who knew? Also the staff and people surrounding this place are full of joy and love. Check this place out for some free love, they are serving it up all the time!
