Adrian PhillipsJanuary 23, 2017The espresso is great here! My go to spot when staying on the Gold Coast in Chicago. It's located in a Plum Market grocery store. Tons of seating, they have Oat Milk instead of almond. It's great.
Kevin DulinDecember 23, 2017The chai tea was excellent for takeaway. Not a great interior / atmosphere.
You can ask for an alternate roast to use for an expresso besides their standard Black Cat. The one I tried had caramel notes which was a spring 14 blend.
JakubAugust 20, 2017Barista and service are on point. I was asking for light and sour taste and I got it! Just perfect.
Rudy ValentaFebruary 22, 2016Easy to walk past as it doesn't look like your typical coffee shop. Amazing coffee, get the pour over if you have the time
TheOutOfTownerDecember 23, 2019The double espresso machiatto, the mocha and the regular drip coffee have all been yum! #bestcoffeeinthecity also what we drink at home now - the celebration holiday mix is highly recommended
Amy KrulasFebruary 3, 2015Just have to walk in and will find what you need without a long line, rushed stressed staff. Relaxed joint to jump start your day
Mitra SalaselJanuary 9, 2016It's inside of a grocery store, so a bit more austere space than other locations, but still has good single origin pour over by the cup.
Brandon M.December 3, 2014Helpful, knowledgeable baristas. Modem design, delicious coffee. Great stop in the morning
Summer McGeeNovember 26, 2013Very busy and small cafe...but worth a visit for the best coffee on earth!
go early so you don't miss the baked goods - they're from floriole!
Great espresso and Flat White & Long Blacks done the right way!
- Josh WJanuary 3, 2015Love the coffee but $3.50 for a small coffee...c'mon man. (And I mean really small)
Ali RamzanaliOctober 27, 2013Like the layout and colors of this location. Had a dirty chai, pretty damn good.
