Mission Statement

This is a concise declaration outlining the purpose of the business.  Elijah's places hospitality and people above all else.

What does Elijah have to do with Coffee?

Elijah was an Old Testament prophet in the Bible who promoted reconciliation between Israel and God.  He was often in great danger from Queen Jezebel and King Ahab, who were leading the nation into idol worship.  Elijah was often discouraged and, on several occasions, God provided him with a sanctuary where he could rest and rejuvenate.  Elijah's Specialty Coffee & Tea wants to be your sanctuary where you can take the angel's advice to Elijah in 1 Kings 19 to "Arise and eat: because the journey is too great for you."

We look forward to being the place you come to study, spend time with family, or just enjoy a game of Scrabble with friends.  Please make yourself at home.

Elijah's has been Elmhurst's neighborhood coffee shop since 2007.  We are dedicated to providing the highest quality products in an atmosphere that is both welcoming and friendly to everyone.
