Medians across the 120 Illinois cafes we hold a price for, against the same item averaged nationally. Franchisees set their own prices, so treat these as what to expect rather than a quote.
The same 5 items priced at each of the 115 Illinois cafes we hold a full price list for. $3.10 separates the two ends.
Cheapest cafe
$34.05
Moline - 41st St & John Deere Rd
Moline, IL
Dearest cafe
$37.15
Park Ridge - Advocate Lutheran General Hospital (Main Entrance)
Park Ridge, IL
Each cafe sets its own prices, so two cafes in the same town can differ. A cafe inside an airport, a hospital, a campus or a motorway service area usually sits at the dearer end, wherever it is.
The same 5 item basket averaged per town, cheapest first, against a Illinois average of $35.31.
