Aaron CruzJuly 24, 2013A Viennese coffee shop in the Lincoln Square neighborhood. The Melange is the caffeinated beverage of choice yum. Checkout the pastries and cuisine too. A Chicago coffee tour must stop.- XSeptember 14, 2012Their free Wi-Fi is turned off on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. All other times, the wifi password is 'viennacoffee'. The wait staff is really chill. Lots of smiles, so smile back! It's healthy! :)
Favorite coffee shop in the city. Exquisite espresso drinks, attentive service, and astonishingly good baked goods as well as full sit-down meals. On the pricey side by worth it. Best mocha ever.- Aaron CruzJune 19, 2016A Viennese coffee shop in the Lincoln Square neighborhood. The Melange is the caffeinated beverage of choice yum. Checkout the pastries and cuisine too.
Kelly HarmantasJune 23, 2012This is one of my favorite places to go! Go for breakfast and get baked eggs - my favorite right now has potato pancakes, caramelized onions, truffle oil, and parm chz in it - also go for the mélange
SaraNovember 12, 2012Want a European experience? Head on over to J. Meinl's! Melange w the gold foiled Opera was a superb combination of bittersweet. Smoked salmon sandwich & butternut carrot soup, v. hearty and healthy.
venessa tarbellNovember 17, 2011It's a little pretentious, but the presentation is lovely and the food and deserts are delicious. Ample space, a summer patio, and live music make this an all-around great venue for a snack or meal.
Time Out ChicagoOctober 31, 2011This European export has a full menu of food. Frittaten soup is offered daily, and the roasted lamb is served with toothsome spaetzle. At the end of the meal, a slice of opera cake is a necessity. Read more
Katie McCormickAugust 24, 2016Enjoyed the iced mocha and iced latte and split an amazing cinnamon roll! Next time we'll try the salads they looked delicious!!!

ErkanOctober 25, 2015From the strange beans in racks left during Vienna siege of Turks to the most sold drink of the world; the real coffee is here in porcelain cups:))
Cari SekendurAugust 28, 2011Open until midnight on weekends! Great place to go if you're not in the mood for the bar scene. Live music with a European feel I haven't seen anywhere else in Chicago.
Bobby KennedyMarch 29, 2015Strong coffee and extravagantly delicious pastries. Great location to either just stop in or sit for awhile.
I love this place because has european vibes, check the pastry section and the BlT sandwich!!!
Raed MansourAugust 17, 2014A nice break away from the hubbub of Starbucks. Quiet outdoor cafe to enjoy coffee and fresh pastry.
MaitaAugust 29, 2012Have the fabulous Frittaten soup and a dopio expresso. Bring a book, sit back, relax, enjoy the calm scene and light jazz music.
Gardenia Hung-WittlerApril 27, 2014Great Raspberry Linzer Coffee with Continental Breakfast, Lunch, and A Pause Café!
Virginie LiaoJanuary 31, 2016Their blueberry Lemon Poppy Seed scone is quite yummy! I would get again with coffee.
Sebastian KoMay 1, 2011The house-roasted beef sandwich on a pretzel roll is awesome. Ask for their grain mustard on the side for some extra flavor.
Terrific coffee, pastries and other Austrian café fare.
I prefer the espresso drinks over the coffee. Portions of food are smaller then IHOP but a thousand billions times more inventive and delicious.
MarnitaJune 14, 2012Great atmosphere enjoyed the tea and pastries. Looking forward to visiting again.
Jen AprahamianFebruary 5, 2011The hot chocolate is life-changing. Pro tip: ask for it in ceramic rather than glass (it'll stay hot longer!).
Fantastic coffee and food. Mediocre desserts. Changed bread recently so the roast beef pretzel bread isn't nearly as good. Still, overall a great place for a light meal ad coffee.
What a perfect quick meal: Sausage. Arugula salad. (Mustard.) Delish.
Michael LouieJanuary 4, 2012Great place to go for coffee/tea and dessert. The food isn't too shabby either.
Devin RossMay 15, 2011They make a really great mocha, that with some apple strudel will blow your mind
Kidell PowellFebruary 23, 2012Large parties will experience long waits and greeters who don't know what to do about seating arrangements
The Austrian Breakfast is my new favorite thing! Simple and delicious.- Gardenia Hung-WittlerFebruary 23, 2014Try the Linzer Raspberry Coffee with Biscotti. It is delicious.
