I didn’t try the food or drinks on this visit, but I did purchase two of the infused candy bars—one aimed at relieving pain and aches, and the other for PMS symptom relief. I also picked up two types of patches: one for stress relief and another specifically for PMS. I’m definitely planning to come back to try the food and drinks! The drink menu including teas, smoothies, and coffees sound amazing. The atmosphere here is very calming and laid-back, making it a great place to unwind. They carry a wide variety of holistic items, candles, soaps, teas, beauty creams, gummies, pet treats, and more. In the back, there’s a cozy lounge area perfect for relaxing, and they even offer live music. The employees were friendly, welcoming, and very helpful. This place has officially earned a spot on my “must-visit” list whenever I’m in Kankakee, IL!

Briefly stopped in while passing through and wish we'd had more time. Wide variety of flavors and seasonal drinks. Both of our lattes were amazing! If we're ever passing through again, we'll make sure to visit!

This is exactly what downtown Kankakee needs. This place is unique, cozy, refreshing, and uplifting. There are lots of healthy and fresh drink and meal options on the menu. Food, service, and atmosphere is 10/10. My favorite thing about this business is the style and design that compliments the historical building it is located in. I wish this business much success!
