About Big Shoulders Coffee

Big Shoulders Coffee is a cozy coffee shop that offers a homey atmosphere. They are known for their delicious breakfast burritos, especially the pork burrito, and the best sausage breakfast sandwich in the northwest loop. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, recommending drinks like the chai tea with lavender or roasted marshmallow coffee. Their espresso drinks are solid, and the employees work with great efficiency, making sure everyone is helped quickly. The ambiance is comfortable with wooden tray accents, though the space might be small for informal meet-ups. There’s a patio, but with the L above, it’s not ideal. Prices are fair, and the shop offers great pastries, fresh beans, and specialty drinks. Located under the L on Lake Street, it’s a clean, nice spot with smart baristas who provide interesting details about the coffee. A solid and reliable choice in Chicago.

Favorite Chicago coffee. Bold flavors, strong and I love the aroma from the cold brew especially. Your salted caramel is a gem.

Received some to try in our misfit market order. Exceptional coffee. I’ll be ordering more today.

Hands down the best coffee in Chicagoland, if you plan on going often get yourself the orange reusable cup and enjoy a lower environmental impact and a little discount every time you come in.
