Great coffee shop next to Dairy Queen. The staff is quite friendly. I can't speak to the coffee but they made me a fresh herbal iced-tea (from loose leaf tea) steeped in a tea press and poured over ice. Agave syrup and honey, in addition to your standard sweeteners, were available at the condiment stand. I also had an oatmeal raisin cookie that was very good. If that's an indicator of their other confections, it's worth the calorie splurge. All in all, a very nice coffee shop worthy of your time.
Dear Jeff,
Thank you for the speedy and personalized service you gave my sister and I on making our "To Go" lunch for the beach. We didn't have time to plan for our excursion so we popped over for quality delicious and elegantly prepared foods to take with us. The meals kept well in the containers you provided, even without a cooler, and sustained us through our afternoon with the nutritious culinary delights you and your staff prepared. Thank you for creating and keeping a healthy option for dining in Plainfield. The Coffee Box is the best bistro coffee shop this side of the Hudson!! I haven't tried the other side yet. <3
Tried them yesterday and it was very good. The ice coffee was excellent and the tuna/cheese panini was good. Came with a side salad as well. Only suggestion is for them to turn the jazz music down a bit. They have a high ceiling and the sound bounces around and is quite loud. On the other hand the staff was very attentive and polite - keep up the good work!

Ive been going almost daily for my espresso fix, they definifely know what they are doing. Cant recommend it enough
Amazing coffee! Great service! Wonderful ambiance! Had gluten free smoked salmon and salad. Family had GF ham and Swiss and GF roast beef and cheese. So good! Tempted by the GF brownie, but I was so full from the lunch! Love the community table!
So great to have a local coffee shop that serves the best coffee and great food. Jeff and everyone there are so friendly too.
Jeff and staff were so inviting! They did a great job with the space. Sleek and modern! I had an Earl Grey Tea and a banana walnut scone that tasted amazing! Also, a perfect addition to the South Ave corridor; fit perfect with DQ neighboring business!
We’ve been searching for a coffee shop that can make a really good flat white and we have found it at last! The Coffee Box is the answer!
Beautiful, clean space— both modern and rustic. Lovely service, and the best cappuccino I've had since my visit to Vienna. Highly recommend!
Great location in Plainfield, awesome and informed baristas. Never disappointed when I come in for a quick bite. Best zucchini bread yet.
What a gem. Stopped by for a late lunch and the food was delicious. Jeff is an attentive owner and the space is perfect - not too big, not too small and so comfortable. Oh, and the coffee is delicious too!
The service was excellent. The coffee was delicious. The muffin was AMAZING! It’s my new spot for coffee and breakfast items! Can’t wait to try other things from the menu.
Great cozy spot! Wonderful latte and delicious bacon and cheddar scone! And warm hospitality by owner Jeff Spelman!
Finally a coffee house that is close by, my kids and I came by yesterday the food was good, the espresso was perfect, nice friendly staff
Cool interior, delicious drinks, and a good selection of food items. (I had a very good soy chai latte and a wonderfully moist and flavorful slice of vegan zucchini bread.) The best part was - it was busy - a nice thing to see at an independent coffee shop these days! Looking forward to going back and trying more things!
Never have I met a group of people so knowledgeable about coffee and genuinely care about making good coffee. The staff is so nice, the owner is amazing. It doesn’t get any better.
Great coffee ☕️ shop next to Dairy Queen 🍨. I had the quiche and it was completely delicious. The prices were reasonable and the service was excellent. I wish it was cool enough for me to sit outside in the front section of the shop.
Jeff and his team at the Plainfield store provided coffee and pastries for our residents ar the Quin Apartments. Great coffee, service, and delish homemade pastries. These folks always try hard to please and be friendly whether I drop by myself for a caffeine fix or they cater one of our Coffee Grab-n-Go events. Love their coffee and their attitude!
Cosy spot. Nice atmosphere. Lovely people. My wife's espresso-based drink was awesome. We did not eat lunch here, but had a few desserts which were good. The only disappointing thing was... the seriously weak drip coffee (think: diner level weak). Maybe I had a bad batch? Will be back and adjust stars.
I've been meaning to stop by since The Coffee Box is right up the road from where I work. I'm a coffee nerd and love trying out different coffee houses as each one is different from the next. I opted for a pour over and an order of avocado toast. The coffee blend I chose was the Rwandan blend and it was made to perfection. I also ordered avocado toast and that took was very good. From the looks of it, they bake everything onsite which is nice to see. Now that I know that the quality of the coffee is what it is, I'll be going back.
I worked close by and, to be honest, the highlight of my week was to go there to have lunch in Friday’s. Absolutely loved their soups (always creamy and flavorful) and their sandwiches. The mango mouse is a must try!
There's something that draws me to smaller local coffee shops. Often times it's the exceptional service, variety of drinks and treats and the overall environment. The Coffee Box knocks all of these out of the park. This is my new favorite cafe in all of Plainfield.
A shining example of small business at its finest. Incredible food, charming and welcoming customer service, cute decor and great ambiance. I feel like this will be our new Sunday brunch spot.
Excellent local coffee shop w good finger food and excellent service. Highly recommend checking this place out!
