Love the food and their drinks. Staff are nice and accommodated my allergy request. Although the place got a bit packed an hour after I've arrived, it was still quiet enough to catch up on my reading, seems to be the reason why a lot of people go there to get some work done. Will definitely be back.

What a neighborhood gem this restaurant is! Came here for lunch when I was nowhere in the area because this spot has been on my radar. Arrived at 12:30 and, even though it was a rainy cold Saturday, the place was pretty busy with a line already formed. Some tables are communal and it's first come first serve as far as finding a seat. My husband and I ordered drip coffee, a honey lavender oatmilk latte along with a breakfast sando and breakfast burrito as our entrees. I opted for my burrito to have avocado instead of meat. Employees are young, hip and friendly and the interior is pretty modern with some tables outside too. My latte was delicious! There's just something about enjoying a hot drink while the weather outside is grey and dismal. Food was excellent. The hot sauce they serve (I think it may be made Inhouse but I'm not 100% sure) is bright and has a bit of a Smokey flavor but not overpowering at all. The heat sneaks up on you! Burrito was very flavorful and I enjoyed it very much; also a good size so you could even share with someone if you aren't super hungry. The breakfast sandwich was tasty and lots of pesto flavor, It's highly likely that I will be returning to this establishment; there's another location in Highland Park I want to check out next!

Great place to chill and have a drink. They have an extensive selection or wines. We had the chicken and a fish sandwich it was good/mid.

Stopped by for a quick lunch. The honey lavender latte was good, but I did think it was missing the lavender note. The lil chicky sando was surprisingly good, the minty-ness of the slaw paired well with the kewpie mayo. My only critique is that the friend chicken was very small and I wasn't able to enjoy the crunch of it with every bite. It gets super busy so it will be very loud and crowded during the lunch rush so keep that in mind.

In the vibrant streets of Highland Park, where time dances to the rhythm of anticipation, stands Highly Likely—a beacon of caffeine worship. Here, the faithful endure the ritualistic wait, surrendering to the siren song of regular coffee. Amidst the chaos, Southern California's essence envelops, a testament to the allure of a sun-kissed atmosphere.

It buzzing here. Lots of people working on laptops and the vibe is great. Laid back and casual but also trendy. Can get crowded. The street parking is a pain. Great assortment of beverages but the food is a tad salty.

Good food and coffee. But their service is sloppy- $30 for a breakfast burrito and coffee and they give the burrito to the wrong customer and then put out the coffee without saying who it belongs to? I get that your hipster/gentrified vibes are important but you can't get away with sloppy, bad service. Be better.

Hello Yelpers! I wanted to check in and leave a little note on Highly Likely. My friend Alba and I met up for lunch this week. I wanted to try the meatballs and spicy kale salad, but that not available for lunch, so I chose the salad with chicken. It was different but still tasty and fresh. The space is fun and loved the staff everyone was friendly and helpful. There is a little wine section too. I'll have to try again for dinner and to check out the wine selection. Thanks!

My partner and I had some business in the area so. We decided to try this cafe to work for a few hours. Pros: - Ambience was great with different table sizes suitable for groups of all sizes (1-6). - Servers were very responsive and helpful. Questionable: - Food was good, but very small portions. The anew burger was ~13, but really only 4 bites. Fries cost extra. Granted it's more of a coffee shop than restaurant, but the portions could use work. - Work will be a hit or miss depending on how much noise you can tolerate. Sometimes the noise can be more distracting than more white noise (40:60 ratio). - Limited availability of pour-overs (they were all out of the pour-overs by Saturday 2pm, which is a bummer as it's an excellent way to try new blends). Cons: No outlets. Other reviews/answers say that they have outlets, but in reality it's one outlet that is generally used by employees/manager (per employees there). In summary, it's a nice study area, but for socializing/studying/working, it would not be in my top 3.
The food was cold . French toast undone. The orange juice is not real .

Love the hipster look about the place. Can’t say the same for the staff, the gentleman with long hair and dissatisfied expression on drinks duty didn’t seem to have much customer service knowledge.Now the food, 16 bucks for a burrito that basically seems like something from el pollo loco with a quarter of the protein.Perhaps a coffee this place would be nice, however I STRONGLY recommend not getting food here.

japanese b’fast bowl is delicious. umami w/ delightfully textured funghi. savory and nourishing yet light. also enjoyed the grade of the matcha.for 2 (2 plates + 2 bevs) our total rounded out to $50+ only subtraction is that my guest asked to have their sandwich sliced in half. it had just been laid out yet the server said it wasn’t possible.

Came here before school and decided to try their matcha iced latte with oat milk, it tasted authentic and delicious in my opinion. The set up is weird bc you just walk up to the counter then seat yourself. The bar itself is an open layout and there's not only cafe drinks but alcoholic drinks as well! Only downer is that it's street parking!

I love going to this place! It is a busy spot, but the staff is super friendly and helpful. I loved their vegan recommendations. I am also a fan of their hot sauce.
