Greta place to chill, there are lots of tables in the back… keep walking in and swing left. The coffee order before ours was incorrect, so they had to remake it. Then our matcha latte was pretty mid. Obviously, this is not a matcha specialty place, but the blackberry dessert bar that we had and the bla berry brownie were both good. They have gluten free options as well and salads and sandwiches. The ordering is a bit tedious because it was just one guy when we went in yesterday. Lots of seating outdoors on both street sides of the store. Families, students studying, individuals and groups hanging out.
A fantastic spot with attentive service that makes for a memorable experience you'll want to repeat!

Our lunch here was amazing! My boyfriend and I are celiac/gluten free and our server, Amanda S, was so helpful! She was able to get us exactly what we needed! Some of the best service we’ve ever had. 10/10 will be back!
Experience a warm, inviting atmosphere where the team genuinely cares and the comforts extend beyond just dining.

They've always been really nice to me and cared about my allergies to gluten. The restaurant is comfortable to be in and the business treats it's staff very well.
If you look on their website they have all sorts of benefits for them and you can taste it in the food.
Everyone there has always taken the time to explain things to me even when I was really hungry, angry and experiencing health problems, they even refused tips about it, just kind people.
Enjoy a cozy, family-owned spot with a charming Italian vibe, perfect for gatherings and delightful surprises for everyone in your party.

This is a small family owned restaurant. It reminds me of restaurants I have been to in Italy. I was at the restaurant for a birthday gathering of 11 people. I had the spaghetti carbonara. The pasta's flavor was fabulous! The limoncello cake is light & smooth tasting. My husband doesn't like pasta but, enjoyed a tender and flavorful steak. My 6 yr old grandson can't eat gluten or dairy. He was delighted with their gluten & dairy free pasta with sauce. The waitstaff was attentive to our requests. Fantastic experience that I would highly recommend!
Walk into Joy Bar and you feel a boost of health and satisfaction immediately. Smoothies, toasts with gluten free options, power shots, and generously portioned salads. They also have drip intelligentsia coffee and a turmeric ginger tea that I come back for regularly. The employees give good suggestions according to the health benefit you’re looking for. Prices are fair for the quality of ingredients. All this in a sweet downtown Glen Ellyn environment across from the metra station.
