DeVille Cafe & Market

"This is a difficult review to write. I had been meaning to check out this new place in the space where FRANK had been, and got the chance to stop in while taking the train out of Beverly. The staff was incredibly nice and knowledgable and the spot is lovely (although it will be even better when the space that was FRANK's dining room is occupied by the coming full-service restaurant). I got a drip coffee that was honestly one of the best coffees I've ever had: subtle hints of chocolate, complex wisps of fruity and floral aromas, and none of that nasty acidity that haunt some big-chain gourmet coffee shops. I also tried a sausage, egg, and cheese on a croissant. The croissant was gorgeous: flaky on the outside and fluffy gorgeousness inside. The egg tasted fresh and was cooked with just the perfect bit of creaminess in the yolk. But the sausage was disgusting. I was a bit surprised to see that it was a large, split link rather than a patty, but I was down for something new. I first tried to tear my sandwich in half, but I couldn't, so I bit into it, and the sausage was tough and rubbery--as in, I had to yank my head to the side to take bites. Everything else here was so good, so I'm not sure what happened, this was probably just a one-off mistake. I'll surely give Deville another try, but I could not finish the ostensibly gourmet breakfast sandwich I got there."

"Great food and coffee. They were so nice and accommodating of our food allergies and 1 year old. 5/5 no notes"

"Update to say: the chimichurri grilled cheese is SO TASTY! A gorgeous European-style cafe with cozy seating and quiet music playing, perfect to sit & sip your well-crafted latte (they also have lots of great tea options for us non-coffee drinkers) and have a croissant, sandwich, bagel, or cake. There’s also a small market with fresh pasta and other goodies I look forward to trying! And they’ll be opening a full restaurant in spring! So happy to have this place on Rantoul."

"Terrific coffee. They use a La Marzocco machine, outstanding. Treats and cake are wonderful. Great music selection. Waiting for the full restaurant to open soon. Thank you"

"I'm not a coffee lover, but I do love having a QUIET place to sip some, enjoy a pastry, and visit with a friend. Looks like this could be the place to go mornings."
