So many reasons to love. Friendly service. Homey atmosphere. Great bagels. Good for vegetarians and vegans. People watching is diverse and therefore better than the homogenous Starbucks.

Nice cup of coffee and plenty of good veggie and vegan options and that is from a carnivore.

A perfect local coffee shop. Great, hand crafted coffee drinks; vegan baked goods (and non vegan too); a patio tucked behind it.

Friendly staff, free WiFi, good environment, and the $2 in house mug of coffee with a free refill can't be beat.

Vegan options! The vegan spinach pie will cause addiction. Also vegan cookies, sandwiches, and all smoothies can be made vegan; just ask!

Yeah, it's crowded and you have to share tables - but that's what's so great about The Grind! And don't miss the bagels with hummus, cukes, and tomatoes!

Best ham egg, and cheese sandwiches. And latte's are great. Plus it's super cozy and play good music. My favorite coffeehouse in the city!

Nothing precious or hipster about this spot, but a tiny little powerhouse of a coffee shop in Chicago's Lincoln Square neighborhood.
