Let me start by saying congrats on opening their cafe in Arlington Heights! It's a great addition to the neighborhood! When I walked in, I was impressed by how clean the atmosphere was. Garrett, the cashier was quite descent with my order. It took about 10 minutes for my order to be seved, but it was worth the wait. The Arlington breakfast sandwich had an interesting bread that I've never seen, but it was soft and delicious! The blended caramel was a little sweet, but still good! It was an awkward moment, but I'm glad that it worked well at the end without any issue. Overall, this place is ni

Very casual and cute little cafe run and worked by the nicest people. Garrett greeted us and patiently took our order as we slowly examined the menu since it was our first time. He is so friendly and polite. The tomato soup was amazing, as was the Moo shake! I like that the Avenues to Independence clients have such a nice place to work.

Today I had the best time at Gerry's Cafe! Not only did I get to see my awesome friend and Gerry's employee, Sara, I had THE BEST grilled cheese and the tastiest espresso milkshake! My Mom had their tasty Mediterranean Salad. I can't wait to go again next week!!

Review written 07/06/2025. They hire people with disabilities. As someone with SSDI and multiple health factors myself, I want to say thank you! People deserve a chance to be able to work and bring in an income. 💯 Very clean restaurant and very clean restroom. Bread tasted extremely fresh on sandwich. Sandwiches overpriced but tasty. Also my sandwich said it had avocado on it but it didn’t really, just a tiny touch of green spread on it. I enjoyed the aesthetically pleasing bright color scheme in restaurant (blues and grays).
