About Backlot Coffee

Backlot Coffee is a beloved, locally owned spot with great coffee, homemade syrups, and delicious food. Enjoy vegetarian pastries, vegan and gluten-free doughnuts, and sweet treats like banana bread with chocolate chips. Try the iced oatmeal cookie latte or banana bread. Friendly staff and a lively vibe make it a favorite among regulars.

The coffee shop, just off to the side of the Metra Railway station, has a chic and somewhat hippie vibe, adorned with modern art and creative wall paintings. Young, urban, stylish customers fill the space, adding to the lively atmosphere. The staff is friendly and the restrooms are clean and cutely decorated.

It’s a small space that packs a lot of character, with art for sale on the walls and plenty of seating. The roast is never burnt, and orders come out quickly. Fair prices, kind staff, and easy parking make it a great stop. A popular spot to sit and work or chat, though the music and crowd can be loud. Perfect for enjoying the vibe or grabbing a quick coffee to go.
