The only way I could do that was if we had to do the whole house in one place or the whole thing and I was just going through it with my friends to get a better understanding and I would have a lot of fun and then we could just go out to eat or go somewhere else or whatever but it was a lot more than I thought I could handle it I was so excited about that and then we just had a conversation about that I just couldn't do that and then we had to get together because we were like I don't want you guys going out and we had a good conversation about that stuff like I said I don't want it to go out and then we had a conversation and I just don't know if I don't want it but it's not a good time and then we could do that I just want you know that was the best way I just want you can just say that was the most beautiful girl I just don't know what to say I just don't worry I just don't want you guys are the most amazing girl and that's fine with me I don't want you know what I just don't want you guys have fun and that's fine but if you're gonna do whatever I just don't be mean and that's fine and if I don't want you know that you can just be careful I love to you too I just want you know I don't wanna get hurt or hurt I don't wanna hurt anybody else but you don't know how you feel I just wanna know that you don't want me or anything but you don't wanna hurt you just don't wanna hurt anyone else and that's all right and I'm not trying I'm trying I'm just saying I just don't wanna talk about anything and I'm not really sure about you I don't know I just don't know how I know that you want you to know what to say that I just want you to feel about me I just wanna be honest and you don't want you to get hurt or whatever I just want you don't wanna hurt you don't know how you know I just

I have very high standards and the Hangout Cafe definitely met them. The tiger sugar latte with light boba I ordered was the perfect amount of sugar and the coffee actually tasted good and strong. Boba is not great at a lot of places but here was the right amount of softness and not sweet which is good for me to cut down on sugar. The ladies working were very prompt and had a smile. It was clean and had cute decor. The waffle ice cream was good too. 10/10

Our family wanted dessert and my eldest recommended this place for Bingsoo and other desserts. Conveniently located in a small strip mall with plenty of parking. The cafe is pristine and spacious!! Place not too busy as it was late Sunday afternoon. Wait staff very polite and patient as this was my first time here. Loved my Mango Bingsoo with chunks of mango and pieces of mochi. Really refreshing and not overly sweet. Reminded me of Halo Halo, shaved ice dessert in the Philippines. The Vanilla Bubble Waffle. Waffle was soft and fluffy. Portion of ice cream to waffle just right. We also ordered the Strawberry Swirl Cheesecake, which was soft creamy. Ratio of strawberry to cheesecake on spot. Swirl of chocolate and whipped cream made it a decadent dessert. Definitely plan on a return visit!!

Cute, modern aesthetic. Everyone has been very nice and helpful when we've gone. We like their red bean bingsoo. The shaved ice is like snow. Some places are more like ice chips, but it's like freshly fallen powder snow that melts on your tongue. They use a honey powder, which is unique. Not too sweet but really good! We also like getting plain bubble waffle for our kids. These are just so-so. The Hong Kong or Taiwanese style we like has a bouncy chew and eggier taste--this is not that. But it's still a nice treat for our kids.

An appropriately named restaurant, this cafe is convenient for hanging out though the furniture isn't the most comfortable for that purpose. Parking is pretty easy as the shopping center isn't typically super busy. The service is fairly quick and friendly and they do prepare drinks fairly quickly which are not the cheapest but no more expensive than nearby cafes. They have an impressive variety from coffee to milk tea to smoothies to specialty drinks. I did not expect to see dalgona milk tea and tiger sugar latte available on their menu. It is nice that they offer a variety of desserts like cake, bubble waffle, bingsoo, and cookies. Though bingsoo and bubble waffles are becoming more common in the suburbs now, its great to see them offer a fairly wide variety of flavors for each. Overall a good choice should you need a sweet treat in the area and need a casual place to hangout with others.

We stumbled here by accident on our way to another event and needed to kill some time. This is a very cute cafe with a casual vibe. They serve coffee, blended drinks, and desserts. We ordered an Iced latte and mint chocolate blended milkshake. They were both delicious. I'm excited to come back and try more food and drinks. The staff is friendly. Highly recommended!!

Decent coffee place in NW Suburbs of Chicago. The cashiers didn't seem very familiar with the options they have. Anyways, we ordered Hazelnut Latte and Hot Chocolate. Hot chocolate: it was actually good but they didn't have marshmallows to put in it (which i like). Hazelnut latte: not my taste, but my loved it. Good thing was both the drinks were served hot. They didn't have comfortable seating. They have metal chairs. Sitting there for 20-25 mins was very uncomfortable. They have gender specific restrooms. Big area for the cafe and could be improved upon seating arrangement and decor.

Nice Korean Hangout to get dessert after stuffing oneself at KBBQ WiFi isn't always accessible or fantastic but it's entertaining to see kids gaming and sucking up the bandwidth.
