From our beloved regulars
My husband and I were kindly greeted by Lauren, the owner, right away. She was super nice, down to earth, and patient with us. I had the “Toast’d” & a macaroon which was delicious!! My husband had the Lucky Charms Cold Brew which was soooo good too! The cafe itself is so cute and very clean.
Boom chicken boom is the most delicious sandwich I've had in a long time Employees are very prompt, great atmosphere and highly recommend this place for lunch. Becky always remembers my order and gets it ready promptly, Jaden, Seth and Ayden are great always, and all the staff is so nice. Best part of McHenry.
My favorite breakfast/coffee spot in LakeCounty. The food comes out fresh and the portions are very acceptable always fills me up. Coffee is actually very good and the service is always friendly and quick even when it’s busy. Easy go to for breakfast or brunch, definitely recommend it. Take yall girls there to they love it.
One of my fave cafes! They have such a large menu and the interior is just beautiful. The workers are kind and patient. The food is delicious. I recommend it to all my friends whenever they're in the area.
I moved to McHenry 2 months ago. This is my favorite brunch spot. Several avocado toasts to choose from, great lunch sandwiches and wonderful seasonal lattes and all the standard coffee options. Professional baristas and an amazing staff. I love the Go Figs toast as it is my absolute goto. I also love the local energy from small parties in the back to welcoming the girl scouts in to sell cookies.
What an amazing establishment especially for a coffee shop. Love the atmosphere. Very spacious and clean. Coffee is smooth and delicious but the food is top notch. The avocado toast is spot on. Go for a single unless you have an appetite. I could taste every single ingredient and that’s rare to come across these days. Light and refreshing to say the least. Overall it is a place to come back too however the service could use a boost of excitement. I would recommend it for a light and refreshing morning start to your day.
Hello! Last August my newly husband and were showered with love from our amazing moms and families! This beautiful evening celebration was located at the delicious Toast & Roast!! Our wedding shower was a beautiful evening filled with a lot of laughter, love and positive energy in the room. A special thank you to the awesome service from owners and team members of Toast & Roast! They provided excellent communication, a delicious menu of coffee & great food to accommodate our guests :) They provided a beautiful private room that comfortably fit our party! We are honored to have had such a special event here and can’t wait to go back! If you are looking for a family event, wedding shower baby shower or other special occasion this is a wonderful coffee shop for all!
Absolutely love coming here for brunch! They have amazing food & coffee. The baristas are always so kind & helpful with any questions I have & Selena makes the best latte art🫶🏽
I live over an hour away from Toast and Roast, but I was up here to watch my granddaughter‘s basketball tournament game. I had looked up coffee shops in McHenry and found it. And what a find! A spacious establishment with clearly readable menu and great service! I had the Toast’d Latte and it was excellent. I highly recommend Toast and Roast! If I lived closer, it would definitely be on my go to shortlist for coffee shops
This cozy café offers a warm, inviting atmosphere and exceptional service. The real highlight, however, is the mouthwatering food. The sandwiches and coffee drinks feature well-balanced flavors and quality ingredients. Whether you're looking for a quiet workspace, a place to socialize, or just a delicious meal, this establishment is a must-visit. Highly recommended.
