"We ordered sandwiches for an office lunch today and placed the order yesterday, ensuring to include a phone number. We paid with a credit card. When we arrived to pick up the order today, nothing was ready. The staff claimed they didn’t realize it was for today, despite this being clearly stated on the order sheet. A quick call to confirm would have been courteous if there was any uncertainty. After that, they hurriedly prepared the food, but two of the orders were incorrect—two people received salads instead of their sandwiches. Additionally, one sandwich that was supposed to be toasted wasn’t, and the portion sizes were on the small side. Overall, it was a disappointing experience, and I wouldn’t recommend this place."

Cute themed cafe. The food was good and they make great lattes. Loves the turtle flavored latte and the cute named lattes to fit the Dr. Who themed.

My siblings and I came to Elgin to see if we recognized anything from our childhood lol. There wasn’t too much that looked familiar. But we were happy to find the Blue Box Cafe for lunch. The food was delicious and very reasonably priced. Dietary restrictions: Gluten free bread is an option Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Price per person: $1–10 Food: 5 View menu

Delicious food !!! Amazing prices. the Cinnturion latte is to die for, it's so warm and actually feels nourishing !! You can actually taste the caramel and cinnamon not the cheap kind but actual good quality kind came to know they make their own caramel !! I am visiting from LA was in the area it was a DoorDash delivery. They paid attention to notes given on the order. Must Try ! Service: Delivery

This charming little café offers a delightful selection of coffee drinks, pastries, and a variety of sandwiches, all set within a Doctor Who theme. The design of the café is wonderfully executed, giving it a playful atmosphere. They even have episodes playing on TV for fans to enjoy. The staff is incredibly friendly, and I highly recommend trying the grilled cheese sandwich—it’s massive and loaded with cheese. I’ll definitely be stopping by again the next time I'm in the area!
