"Coffee was great"
"Really enjoyed it here! Lady at the front - I believe her name is Lorette? - is doing a fabulous job"
"Cafe Press is the worst coffee shop I've ever been to"
"This is just another place run by formula in the Good Eats Group"
"First visit to Chicago and 1st coffee shop to visit"
Coffee was great. I had the honeybee latte (or something similar to that, not really sure what they called that drink in this place). Staff was very kind enough to put it in a cup to let me capture the coffee itself as well as the vibe inside. Will go back and try the rest of their menu.

Parking
Parking is hard to find around the area if you have a car unless you reserve a parking space ahead of time. They do have street parking and if you are lucky then you might be able to park close to the coffeeshop itself.
Really enjoyed it here! Lady at the front - I believe her name is Lorette? - is doing a fabulous job. Very knowledgeable about the coffees and spot on with recommendations. Super friendly and accommodating personality, she definitely wanted us to have a quality experience. The coffee was super good I am still dreaming of it today! I chilled it in the fridge for later, but my husband woke me up on his way to work just to ask if he could take it along because it was so good! So THANK YOU Lorette, we loved your coffee, and will be back! Parking was difficult, I recommend not driving if you don't have to. And the acoustics were tough - it was loud in there, nothing to really absorb that sound and quiet things down. Maybe they should hang some fabric murals up.
Cafe Press is the worst coffee shop I've ever been to. I live in the area and in the handful of times I've been to the shop I've almost never had an enjoyable experience. The people at the counter are rude and act bothered at the simple act of taking down an order. On two separate occasions the food I ordered was inedible, one of the times it had visible mold and no one at the counter even noticed. There are plenty of other quality shops in the area. I wouldn't recommend this shop to anyone.

This is just another place run by formula in the Good Eats Group.A quick bite literally.I am a senior out for a nosh and a cup of joe in a relaxing environment near my home.Well for $2.45 in a cup that holds 4 sips,is was over the top expensive and average tasting at best.No better and smaller than the yellow arch’s coffee.This place is just another young people staring at their computer joint with no sense of community. Decor very interesting.All table and chairs.No comfortable living room style seating. Service Good.Parking non existent. AWARDED 1.5 YUMS ON A SCALE OF 3
First visit to Chicago and 1st coffee shop to visit. Great experience and have to say the people are friendly and helpful. Had the 16oz latte with oat milk - delicious and hot. Also, the hot chocolate was creamy like it should be and hot as well. The chocolate espresso scone is one i will be returning for and per the pic, good sized scone and was warmed. The cinnamon streusel muffin was very tasty as well. Service here is excellent and being strict on customer service, i rate this business a top choice.
Came here to get a cappuccino. Asked for it to be with “lots of foam,” as I know that American baristas don’t make their cappuccinos with foam unless you specifically ask for it (usually, cappuccinos and lattes are barely the same in the US). The barista girl said “yeah, I get it, you want it dry.” I had my hopes up. The cappuccino came with the thinnest foam. Again, it was not cappuccino but latte at best. Needless to mention it costed me $6.

First time in the cafe and it was amazing, great customer service and good quality coffee. I tried their "headliner" single origin and it was very tasty, their scones are delicious, try their peach and bacon/cheddar both are a delicacy.

Pour Over, Scones
The employee that helped us was very nice and we enjoyed the southern lemonade! However our zesty caesar took far too long to justify it being a BYO (very small serving at that) and $25! That’s with impossible meat (which we had to cut ourselves) but we were still charged $14 without it when the menu only says $11. Also, the dressing just tasted like spicy mayo, nothing about the salad was really a caesar.
Very nice coffee shop. The place has a great vibe and the iced coffee was excellent. The only problem is that some seats were cramped close to each other. Our batista was awesome, too! Very friendly and helpful.

I wouldn’t said the egg, cheese and croissant sandwich was anything special but it was tasty and seemed fresh. The coffee was good. It was clean and quiet first thing in the morning on a Sunday. Several outlets, so seems like a good place to knock out some work. The girl working the counter was kind and hardworking. What more could you ask for?
This café is one of the most phenominal places I have ever had the pleasure of walking into. The woman at the counter was wonderful and presented excellent customer service. The drinks were absolutely superb, served hot and fresh and in almost no time at all! I will definitely be making more journeys to this establishment. Well done!
LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT CAFE PRESS. It is a life saver I order there like at least twice a week. The staff are calming and friendly they deserve 1000 stars. Thank you so much for always having my order ready and I LOVE the ease of online mobile ordering! Awesome Awesome

Ordered a small coffee, which should be 12oz, and my cup was a 10oz sample cup. Coffee isn’t cheap, and for them to cheat the system and give it in smaller cups is unacceptable

Really good place in the south loop for coffee and catch up. Nice selection of breakfast sandwiches, coffees, cappuccinos, and tea lattes. Their sandwiches come with yummy chips. Fresh and tasty, and so are the chips. Cappuccino comes in an authentic cup. They also serve Impossible breakfast sausages.
Nice little shop! Has set up for outlets along the 'bar' for working, a great place for 'working from home' at. Great coffee and friendly staff, plus dog friendly so you get to see a lot of good boys. Good pastries too.

The view was really great. We went around 11 and it was pretty quiet. They had a lot of signage about their COVID precautions and it appeared they took it seriously which we appreciated. They have WiFi and it would be a great place to get some work done while enjoying some good coffee and pastries.
If a Macchiato is a 12oz drink with a ton of milk and 1 espresso shot, then the barista has no knowledge on coffee. I strongly recommend training , none of the drinks were good. the store looked nice.

A perfect vibe, quiet, friendly service and good coffee and Rooibos tea! It’s a under-looked spot for sure! Go check it out if you haven’t already.

Sandwiches were like trying to but into cardboard. I order a $12 croissant, must have been pretty old. Hard as a brick. Very disappointed.

Got a yummy take out - white hot chocolate, turkey on a crossaint, and a side of their homemade chips! The food was prepared quickly and the turkey on crossaint was delicious with herb Mayo and sun dried tomatoes. Cute little spot with reasonably priced beverages
Cute neighborhood cafe, and they make the best latte! Their ice latte with oat milk is my all time fav. Foods are also decent but takes long to be ready. I waited over 20min for a sandwich.

Cool local cafe. Swung through for an Americano while visiting Chicago. Friendly staff and really great coffee. I didn’t order food but a good menu, and a variety of pre-packaged teas and coffees to-go.

I ordered a standard sausage/egg/cheese breakfast sandwich, which was, without a doubt, the worst breakfast sandwich I have ever eaten. The bread was soggy, cheese barely melted, and sausage rubbery. The drip coffee I ordered with skim milk
Was charged for $4 chips with my sandwich without being asked, without being told...when I questioned, I was told that the chips would be charged regardless...even though the menu says absolutely nothing about it...girl at the register told
Friendly staff and great coffee and tea selection. For coffee note that their size small is REALLY small. It's good, but overpriced. I also liked the lavender latte--usually I go for plain coffee but I tried it on a whim and it was unique
All was good. I'm glad we found a local place

On a Croissant, Egg Sandwich
Quaint and cute place for coffee and if you’re needing a place to study. Plenty of outlets to charge your laptop. Great coffee, pastries and customer service. We ordered a Dirty Chai and an Oats and Honey, both were delicious!!!!
The pastry I ordered tastes like it was a week old. Skip this place I don’t have much more to say about a place that puts its oldest product in a display case.

Their bagels were fresh & warm. Cream cheese also freshly made. They provided a side of house made chips for our longer wait time (which wasn’t too long). Chips were delicious!! Great food - would come again!
Coffee is good but the breakfast sandwich I got, the bagel was very tough and it was hard to finish it since my jaw was hurting. A little disappointed in it since I spent almost $7 on that sandwich alone. More
The egg, cheese croissant with the addition of an “Impossible” sausage (meat free) is rather wonderful - recommended

The tea was nice but the breakfast sandwich was terrible. I've never tasted a chewier English muffin in my life. Explains why no one else in the cafe had any food, just drinks. Good tea. More
I ate here with a friend 1 year ago, and it was delicious! I had egg and cheddar on a croissant with bacon, and a hot chocolate. I wanna go back. Tip them, they bring you your food :) More
They deserve a quality review for being open! The barista was exceptionally friendly! The coffee was hot. Will have to return to enjoy their French Press with an ice cream sandwich!
Egg sandwiches are very underwhelming. The yolk is dry and does not go well with the consistency of a breakfast sandwich. Coffee was sour.
Very kind workers, great espresso! Love the homemade muffins.
