Lake Forest’s Caribou Coffee Closing

Instead of re-opening as a Peet's, the store will shutter.

Lake Forest’s Caribou Coffee is slated to close, according to an article in the Northbrook Star.

The chain’s owners had said they were going to convert most of the Caribou shops into Peet’s Coffee & Tea stores, which are owned by the same company, but decided that 10 of those stores — including the Lake Forest one — weren’t viable enough to make the switch, the article states.

The store opened in 2011 at 620 N. Western.
