I had a friend visiting from out of state and we went into the Berry House to peruse the various shops located in here - one of which was (going to be) the Coffee Drop Shop.Not even 30 seconds after opening the door, an unmasked woman (this is during the time of the mask mandate in Illinois regardless of vaccination status) glared at us and aggressively asked Excuse me! Can I help you!? We explained we were going to look around to which she curtly responded I dont know what you think you are doing but I am the only store open. As I tend to avoid conflict (and in all honesty, I was still processing why there was this level of hostility from this woman) - I quietly explained that my friend was from out of state and I wanted to show her around. At this point, she raised her voice even more and scolded us by saying that we werent allowed.We backed away from her and headed upstairs while she continued yelling at us. Interestingly - when we got upstairs, we found a salon to be open (yet she said everything was closed). Even more interesting - after walking around (and within earshot of the Coffee Drop Shop) we encountered another patron who obviously did not receive the kind of treatment we did - I cant help but wonder if it was because we were younger and my friend is not white.Either way - our plans to visit the Coffee Drop Shop after looking at other stores in the Berry House were obviously cancelled. Permanently.
If you like flavored coffees, the Coffee Drop Shop has some amazing flavors. You can buy bags that are ground while you wait or simply buy the beans. The coffee always smells amazing. In fact, since it is located inside a large building near the back of the building, you start to smell the enticing aroma about halfway into the building.
I am very impressed by the selection and enjoy spending time here.
The best loose leaf tea!
A great place to buy your beans or tea. They also have a large selection of accessories and other items. The coffee is roasted by the owner. I would definitely recommend checking this place out.
Received an assortment of Coffees for Christmas from this place. it is the best coffee if have ever tasted Rich and Smooth. I dont think I can ever drink anything else again.
Great variety of coffees, and best place in town to buy loose tea!
The best place to find high quality, reasonably priced loose leaf tea. Amazing customer service, great products, and a wonderful variety of coffees and teas to choose from. Be sure to drop in next time you’re around!
Great place! Theyre always so friendly and knowledgeable! Huge selection of teas and coffee!
Go here every year for gifts. Large variety of coffees & teas. You can smell the coffee as you walk down the hall. For a coffee lover, this is heaven. Owner is a great help. Great lady. One of my favorite stores in Geneva.
The best selection of loose leaf teas anywhere! And the woman who runs the place is incredibly knowledgeable as she and her husband do all of the sourcing for the teas and coffee beans (plus their own roasting!) Great selection of gifts for tea and coffee lovers alike. Always make sure to stop by when I’m out visiting my parents in Geneva!
Love it here! Such good tea selections! Good prices. Sweet customer service. Missing out if you havent been here.
Tons of choices for coffee and teas. Friendly staff.
Wonderful experience and what a large variety of quality teas. I will be making all of tea purchases from the Coffee Drop. The owner was so helpful and full of insight. HIGHLY recommend!!!
Good coffee at a great price. Huge selections to choose from.
Highly recommended stop for tea and coffee. Smells wonderful inside. A lot of great tea variety at good prices. If theres something special youre looking for, ask because it may be stashed aside. Good tea blends. Fun tea and coffee accessories. Good for gifts.
Love this shop! So much variety! Coffee from all sorts of places, and tons of flavors, and in decaf too. And just about every type of tea you can think of
This place is easy to miss- but its fantastic! They roast their own coffee and have a huge selection of very good, very reasonably priced teas. The coffee is fresh and cheap ($10/pound), but, unfortunately, they do not have a good light roast. Im kind of a coffee nerd though, and I asked for the lightest roast they have, and it was quite dark. So if you like darker roasted coffee (like Starbucks) you should love it.
Always a good experience. Awesome teas, coffees and every sort of gadget/pot/press/cups, etc...... Nice proprietor and it smells GREAT inside! Check it out.
The woman that owns this is beautifully awesome. She is a great help and has unique items very reasonably priced. My daughter loves the almond joy coffee, which I now ship to her in college. They have awesome flavors of tea and coffee. A must visit 3rd street shop.
Lots of interesting coffee. Not so much with the unique kinds and/or roasts but more with the added flavors, etc.Har to find because its in a maze of a building that shares rooms with antique shops and other stores and the decor of the store lends itself to a homespun antique type place as well. In short, I walked past the place 3 times and I was actively checking for signage, etc.Once in, however, it was nice. Good prices, nice people, etc.
This place has quality loose leaf teas at the best prices in all of Chicagoland, Im convinced. The coffee is pretty good too. Just remember to be patient on busy days as theres only one woman running the business.
I always buy coffee here when in Geneva. LOVE the aroma in this shop! Coffee is delicious in beans or ground, many flavors.
Coffee is awesome! I dont live near the shop but spoke to owner Judy who was so friendly and helpful. Took my order over the phone. Great business!
Coffee drop shop hands down has the best Pina colada coffee around, their coffee is the bomb. Friendly lady owner who actually talks to you and knows her product. Love her, good to the last drop.
Great staff. Friendly owner. Prices are great! Not worth going anywhere else. Coffee is so tasty and teas are great as well. No longer buy my coffee beans anywhere else.
Extensive selection of tea both loose leaf and bag. Also a great selection of coffee. They roast their own. They have a lot of coffee and tea accessories too everything from French presses to China tea sets. It smells wonderful and Judy the owner was very knowledgeable and kind. Too bad its hidden so far back in the building, you have to go past all the other shops to get there but worth it.
Such a wonderful place! Kind owner with great coffee, teas, and gifts!
Ive been sourcing my addiction of choice (good coffee) for 30+ years, from the Coffee Drop Shop in Geneva. They roast small batches at least weekly, so the beans are consistantly fresh and perfectly roasted.Recommended.
Absolutely love this little shop. My grandmother Bebe, always ordered her coffee from here. Now that shes gone, we order and have it delivered to KY to have a little reminder of her coffee joy. Thanks Judy! ❤️☕️ My fav for the holiday- Mistletoe Mocha
This place has the best teas and the proprietor is such a lovely lady!
I bought herbal teas here a year ago. Now I am ordering them from NC where I live. Wonderful teas and the proprietor is delightful.
They personalize teas if you are looking for something specific.. Very flavor coffees and teas in sample and bulk sizes. Very friendly service too!
Wide variety of teas and reasonably priced. Judy who works there is very knowledgeable and helpful. She took the time to help me find just the right tea for me.
Such a wide array of coffees, teas and other items. I love this place!
Went there as I am just getting into making coffee. Judy was very helpful in helping me pick out beans and even had them waiting for me when I got there.
Great coffee and tea. Judy is a wonderful person.
Was on here yesterday 1/5/19 at 5pm. Lady was rude to me in front of my bf.. she rushed me out of the store even though there was an hour left ... She gave me a sob story on why she couldnt make homemade muffins... I mean if u work 14 hours sounds like a personal problem... No need for passive aggressive behavior ....
The best coffee and tea anywhere around! Very helpful and knowledgeable. A true pleasure shopping at this store.
Love the variety of coffees and teas, live the friendly atmosphere.
Love it! Best loose tea & coffee I have ever had. The owners are so sweet and helpful, not to mention the prices are INCREDIBLE. 10/10.
Have bought from Judy and Jerry for years - we ship to us wherever we are. Love the flavors, fresh, and low acid. Such great customer service. At the Berry House on 3rd St - in the back.
Nice quaint shop for tea and coffee accessories.
Its my favorite place to get tea and coffee. The owner is super nice and always looking forward to finding new flavors.
I go to the Coffee Drop Shop to buy loose-leaf tea. They have a wide selection of teas that are very good.
They roast fantastic coffee. Only beans I use now
Knowledgeable and helpful. Answered all my questions. Worth spending time browsing and asking questions. Nancy is patient with even the most mundane questions.
Mom-pop coffee shop that has been roasting its own coffee for over 30 years. The blend I had was flavorful and smooth.
We were never greated, instead we were scouled at, the lady was watching my wife as if she was a criminal but still no hello or how are you nothing absolutely nothing, me and my wife left, maybe she was in a bad mood but either way we wont ever go back.
Terrific coffee at a reasonable price. The muffins are solid too
The best selection of teas and tea pots and all the accessories you could want for a tea party
Owner is awesome! Great selection of coffee and teas.
AMAZING. love the variety of teas and coffee. and the small treats there too!
