What an adorable spot! Food was outstanding but get here early! They’re a not so secret local hot spot so they have limited lumpia (but it’s totally worth it). If you haven’t stopped in you have to…Filipino food is something that needs to be experienced and Merienda Cafe is the place just the place to do it. Try everything once the menu once. Cannot wait to be back!

Excellent food and drinks. The Ube Milk Cap was so good, and the Tocilog was wonderful. I was worried it would be too sweet but it was very well balanced in flavor. A friend had the Tofu and it was amazing, it had almost a vinegar/pickled flavor to it that I loved. I was only visiting from out of town, otherwise I would already be planning on stopping back in.

I love this place! I came with my family for the first time, and their service was absolutely excellent. Their food and pastries are so yummy as well. Their ube pancakes are to die for!!! I literally set my alarm early to come as soon as they open on weekends lol.

Came to town to go to the Harry Potter experience. Husband found this gem when leaving and I’m glad he did. The food was amazing. We got ube pancake, bulgogi fries, tapsilog and bangsilog. We also got Ube latte for drinks and pink calamansi lemonade. 5/5 stars on everything. The silog meals are the most authentic silog meals I’ve had. If we dont live 4hrs away, we’ll be here everyday.

We’ve checked out several Filipino breakfast spots in the Chicagoland area (including a famous one in the city that rhymes with Bahama…) and can confidently say this tops all of them. The staff was warm, friendly, and attentive (shout out to Chris and Crystal!); the dining area was that perfect vibe of
cozy and homey; and the food was out-of-this world delicious! Everything was great, but our favorites were the bulgogi loaded fries, ube pancakes, and pandan chai. Highly recommend Merienda Cafe, and will definitely be back for more!

This place doesn’t miss. Drinks are pricey but worth it because they do them so well and there’s always some new experimental/seasonal drink that slaps. Not boring. Food is incredible. Silog hits all the right notes. Their Papaya salad proved I don’t hate salads. Try something new at this place. Again, they don’t miss.

We’ve been to this place four times now—three of those visits were on consecutive days! My mom discovered this café during the summer last year, and we were impressed by the quality of the food and the generous portions. Not only is the food delicious, but it’s also incredibly satisfying.
Even though we live 45 minutes away, we made it a point to visit again during our stay at Great Wolf Lodge. My husband was so impressed that we ended up having lunch and dinner here, then came back the next day for breakfast before heading home.
Their silogs are not only satisfyingly good, but their milk teas are also delicious, and the service is exceptional. We’ll definitely return whenever we’re in the area!

I went for smoothie and this place didn’t disappoint me. The texture, taste and flavors were upto the point. It seems to be a local favorite spot. Unfortunately being a vegetarian I couldn’t try any of their other dishes. Price was a little higher than other places.

My boyfriend and I came here my last day in the area and I’m glad we did!
Starting with the service, the staff were respectful and efficient. They made sure to check in with us when we got our food and were overall very friendly.
As for the food, everything tasted super fresh and flavorful. I got the beef bulgogi rice plate and loved the way the perfectly runny egg paired with the meat and salad. The drinks were done very well and weren’t too sweet. If you’re in the area, I would definitely recommend!
