AFAR MediaAugust 4, 2014If you want a quiet chill place for a cup of tea, a sandwich and a book, Bourgeois Pig is your place. Big wood tables, jazz music playing and the largest loose leaf tea selection in Chicago. Read more
Great little place. The Sandwiches have great names and an even better taste. Also very cool tea selection. Definitely stop by.
Jake SmithFebruary 7, 2013As Walt Whitman once said, "Nothing endures but personal qualities... and sandwiches named after Walt Whitman." Try one at this awesome coffee shop.
- Mikinzie StuartMay 25, 2013Super cute coffee and sandwich shop with a cozy, vintage vibe. Don't be confused by the two doors: one side is sandwiches and one side is the coffee shop. Smells amaaaaaazing.
Probably my favorite hideout in Lincoln Park. Everything on the menu is named after some sort of literary work and it's all delicious. I reccommend the Great Gatsby and East of Eden.
SaraOctober 15, 2012Jamaican Latte- not too sweet and just the right amount of spice :-) Sitting in the outside cafe area reminded me of the Parisian coffee shops. Lavender cookie- for an adventurous taste palette.- Ainee FatimaNovember 13, 2014Just discovered this place yesterday, I absolutely fell in love. Great strong coffee for the best price and their key lime tart is delicious!
GinaOctober 6, 2014Delicious sandwiches named after books, chill ambiance in a beautiful setting, and friendly customer service. What more could you want?
Nina NiremaNovember 3, 2012One of the best coffee shops in Chicago. If you're looking for some quiet to read or catch up with a friend, check out the upstairs area.
Behrad EatsMarch 19, 2013The orange poppy scone goes great with many of the vast variety of teas they have.
Adolfo ChaconAugust 5, 2013Love the place, I try to visit anytime I'm in the States. I am the Cheese sandwich so good. Cheers from Costa Rica.
Jacob Du PlessisMay 16, 2019Lovely old-time gem in a neighborhood that is changing fast and that can easily be missed.
Beth SantosAugust 11, 2014Love the decor of this place. Great location for a meetup, to have a coffee with a friend, or to get work done.
T.S.C. WeekendJuly 19, 2015Love the iced skim lattes and the sandwiches. Best coffee ago in Chicago.
Maxwell HendersonDecember 2, 2015Lots of unique seating in the upstairs section. Great place to get some work done
Mikey JohnMarch 16, 2014Relax and enjoy yourself. Great place to hang out, study, and relax. Great atmosphere to be in!- Lukas CarvajalApril 10, 2017Service is a little iffy sometimes and with a bit of "hipster" attitude. Pretty delicious food and tea though.
It's a cool place, but I have been twice and sometimes they don't have the drinks I'm asking for 😩
Casey VickersAugust 24, 2011An amazing latte and great people work here. I'll sit and study for hours and they are more than happy to continuously refill my mug.
AubreJuly 15, 2014Free unlimited wifi (maybe just because it's summer and a bit slower?). Awesome music. Great ambiance.
Nohra MuradFebruary 4This is nit picky, but the “Belgian waffle” on the menu is actually just an American waffle.
Kellie KMarch 27, 2012Two sides to this place. Be sure to order coffee from the cafe side (right). It's the same building with 2 different doors.
Theo EstesAugust 7, 2014While a bit pricy for sandwiches, this place is tasty and a nice place to read.
Sarah SibleyApril 27, 2014Great place to get work done. Good atmosphere, good coffee, great maple bacon scone.
Doña TrinaJanuary 19, 2014Fantastic upstairs setting. Lots of tables for homework or discussion groups. This place is so cute.
Steph TaylorFebruary 6, 2016Really charming cafe. Coffee is on the right side, and food is on the left.
Evan HayesDecember 29, 2012Very confusing set up. I think the staff could be a bit more helpful about navigating through the various rooms and floors. Good coffee & food though!
Elena MaríaMay 26, 2013Great coffee and sandwiches made and served by people passionate about damn good food.
Maria AmundsonNovember 19, 2011Cool place to study- not far from DePaul campus and fullerton stop. Great food. Finding a table can sometimes be a nightmare!
Amazing food, amazing coffee. Unfortunately, insanely slow service. Will not be back for food until they figure out how to scale.
Emily VannesteJune 8, 2014Don't waste your money on the cappuccino. That being said, the Mexican Hot Chocolate is to die for!
MulleOctober 18, 2010The best nook to study/cram for finals. The best shortbread cookies in the world. Open late. Amazing amazing.
AimeeJuly 25, 2013Bourgeois Pig's dignity left with Children's Memorial Hospital. A shame to lose this neighborhood gem to mediocrity.
David DownsJuly 15, 2010Sometimes they have this really big chocolate cupcake... get it! All their lattes are good. On the weekends it gets packed.
Kim MillerApril 12, 2011Cute sandwich/coffee shop across from Children's Memorial. Cozy upstairs, outside seating and free wifi!
Jordan AlexanderApril 7, 2012The Peppernini is delightful! Definitely recommend, esp if you're a vegetarian.
bridget dickeyDecember 2, 2010my favorite coffee joint in all of chicago. love the low lighting, the staff & the tasty drinks!
Scott BerkaMay 30, 2011Strawberry mango smoothie = awesome (their sandwiches are obviously great as well)
Joe MescherDecember 29, 2009Go to the Bourgeois Pig, grab a table first, then order a tall mocha latte and sourdough turkey sandwich with hummus. Crazy Tasty.
Michael RosenFebruary 11, 2015Girlfriend and I made an order and had to wait for a full hour before we found out that they had forgotten the order in its entirety. Not the first incident... awful service, overpriced and poorly run
