Blue Box Cafe - Elgin

Who doesn't love Doctor Who? This charming little café has a lot of potential. I only wish they offered a souvenir, like a paper menu or a coffee mug. The coffee was tasty, and the Magic Bar was fantastic!

Fantastic food, outstanding service, and a wonderful atmosphere. The coffee was exceptional, and our sandwiches were scrumptious. The young women at the counter were friendly, helpful, and did an excellent job overall. Our son ordered a vegan sandwich, which is shown in the picture, and he absolutely loved it. We will definitely come back for another meal!

You would be hard pressed to find another café like Doctor Who anywhere in the country; it might be the only one of its kind! The staff consistently delivers an excellent experience with a variety of delicious food and drinks. I would love to see more vegan and vegetarian-friendly sandwich options, but aside from that, it's tough to think of ways to improve this fantastic café. Plus, it's surprisingly spacious inside!

Great tasting chili and sandwiches! Cool, chill vibe, with friendly staff.

Yummy place. The coffee's are so good, I just wish you opened earlier. Lavender Coffee is the best. The sandwiches and the salads are good. The tortilla soup is amazing. Soups are just amazing here. Definitely try the Gobbler during Thanksgiving. They make really good grilled cheeses and you pick what cheeses you wanna mix up. Except make sure they remember the bacon. I think twice they forgot it. BUT it was still good. I am not a fan of Dr.Who btw, I think that's what this is based off? I just love the place, very hip and cool. Good food and nice staff. The blue door is super cool.
