Came on Halloween afternoon and ordered the ube and orange chiffon lattes. They are $6-7 each which I'd say is standard pricing. Total was $15 for two 12oz lattes. FYI, if you're looking to take pics get the 12oz, they only serve the 12oz in the mug, the other sizes are in the to go cups.
We ordered the ube Spanish latte and orange chiffon latte. They came out in these beautiful yellow mugs, aesthetic wise it was pretty with the heart design especially for the ube one. The orange chiffon latte is described on the menu as having an orange rose honey with house cream topped with coriander. I didn't taste the rose nor the coriander, best way to describe it is almost like an orange creamsicle in a cup which is not a bad thing but I would have liked to taste a little rose which would have paired well with the citrus! I did like that they topped off the orange chiffon latte with actual orange zest, gives it a nice aroma and makes it even more enjoyable to sip on and is such a great touch!
Overall, I could definitely taste the ube and the orange, the flavors were subtle and not overwhelming which I truly enjoyed! I dislike when cafes over do it with syrups and artificial flavors so I appreciated that both were not overly sweet. I'm not a huge coffee fan (tea connoisseur) but I definitely enjoyed both, they are so creamy and delicious!
The space is small, not much seating inside but it is cozy.
I highly recommend these two but if you have to get one I'd try the orange chiffon!
I did read other reviews about the customer service lacking and being rude but this was not our experience they were friendly, professional, and polite.
I would have given more stars but there's one thing I think could be improved upon so I didnt. Just some feedback/suggestion for management, it would be nice if they could bring our drinks to the table. After ordering, we had to stand near the register waiting for them to make the drinks, when we would have preferred to sit down, chat, and relax while they are making it. But we had to stand there waiting, walk to the counter, grab the drinks, and then sit down. There aren't many people inside since there isn't much seating available (small space) so it would add a nice touch if they could bring the drinks to the table after we order. It would really make a huge difference in the ambiance and dine in experience.
They have so many drink options which is fun, there's something for everyone, and I'll definitely be back to try other lattes.
UPDATED review:
Came back a second time, tried the butterfly pea and the pumpkin spice lattes, 12oz for each came out to $15 with tax and tip included. The butterfly pea was good not too strong but it was barely lukewarm which was odd since the pumpkin spice latte was very warm, so I had to reduce my rating to 3 star for the food since I didn't order it iced I expect it to be warm. Next time I'll speak up if it's not warm enough but flavor wise it was good, subtle flavor of ube not too overwhelming and the butterfly pea flavor was subtle as well. The pumpkin spice had strong taste of pumpkin as expected and it was good too! The aesthetic wasn't there like the first time when I visited they didn't do any special design with the cream topping. Overall, I still like the first two lattes, ube and orange chiffon the best so far.

Stopped here 2 days in a row because there was too much good lookin stuff on the menu! First day, I tried the Coquito latte and the croissant. Both delicious. The latte was creamy and coconuty and the croissant was so buttery and just melted in my mouth. Day 2 I went for the banana cold brew with the salted cold foam and woah baby I’m in love!!! It was so tasty and unique and man I just can’t wait to get another soon!

Been here 3 times. The drinks are delicious but be prepared for very rude service. Unfortunately I won’t be back cause I hate tipping someone and then have them be totally condescending when I ask them a question about my order.

I ordered the Curious Croissant with tater tots. The food was good, the tater tots tasted a bit freezer burnt maybe? But great breakfast spot, with a lot of tough options of what to get. My biggest issue - for those who care about reducing your single use plastic - they only offer cold drinks in plastic cups. Or you can get it in a mug.

Its disappointing how many cafes cant get a simple latte order right, or prepair one correctly for that matter. This is my upside down, iced latte, with like 2 ice cubes in it. Its not cold, delicious, or upside down.

I lived around the corner from Bad Owl for 3 years until I moved back in July. The last thing I ever did at my old apartment was get a last drink and pastry from Bad Owl. You guys were awesome, and you all made my days brighter. Your coffee was always phenomenal, and I adored the creative seasonal drinks you guys always had. I’m especially missing the rosemary, pumpkin, and coquito lattes. Seriously, you guys always knocked it out of the park. No other shop quite like you guys. I miss yall. If you’re reading this and you’ve never tried their coffee, you should go ASAP. Their actual coffee is also delicious, and an iced americano always brought me a moment of peace during hectic weekdays. My only complaint is I wish you guys were open longer, but for my bank account’s sake it was probably for the best. Hope you guys are well, and I can’t wait to make a trip back to Bridgeport to visit and finally have my favorite cup of coffee in the city :*) you guys rock
Great place to caffeine up before a White Sox matinee game! I got the Bridgeport Burrito with no egg and they kindly substituted avocado for me! It was small but very delicious and surprisingly hardy!! The staff was incredible and the whole place had your at home on a quiet Sunday vibe!! Got a banana cold brew too it was so flavorful and smooth! I will be back next year probably Opening Day 2026!!!
