Super stoked this is in our neighborhood. Another awesome spot by Former bears player Izzy Idoneje! Half coffee shop and half cocktail bar with some delicious food and drinks. All Italian inspired! The Music is so good too! Loved it, we needed this!

Just had one of the best cinnamon rolls I have ever eaten. The icing is perfect!!! I also highly recommend the sugar cookie latte. The baristas were also extremely friendly and took extra care to warm up and package the cinnamon roll I ordered. Love the decor and vibes and can't wait to come back again!

Buttercup is the best bakery in Printer’s Row South Loop area by far. I cannot believe the heated ham and cheese croissant is even better than anything I’ve tried in the two weeks spent in Paris before returning to Chicago—didn’t know what I was looking for was just minutes away from home. The customer service here is attentive, initiative, friendly and upbeat. I’ve already been here 4 times and impressed every time. I absolutely adore and back this place.

Went here for date night. The pistachio eggnog and ronzio were our favorite drinks of the evening. The aesthetic of the entire place is curated and really cute. Service was great and our server was really helpful recommending drink options and answering questions. Great spot we'll be returning to.

Beautiful place. It’s a great place to sit and do some work.
Great coffee and amazing pastries.
Service was outstanding, we got the pistachio mocha and the drip coffee, both very good.

Wowowowow!!! What a great addition to SL! I have been to coffee here 4 times already since it opened and I am SO happy they’re here. This is just the spot the neighborhood needed, can’t wait to be back for cocktails and apps at night.

Been a South Loop dweller for some time now, yet never heard of this place. Absolutely adored it. Fun swanky/speakeasy 1940s/50s vibe inside. We came in the morning and had both the Lavender Sea Salt latte along with the Maple Sea Salt Chai latte. Both were fantastic. Highly recommend for anyone in the area or even passing by. It turns into a cocktail bar after 4pm which Id like to try next.

Food was okay- very overpriced for small quantities. Service and atmosphere was good however. Place is small, cozy and nice. There is street parking available as well. The drink I had was not super good however.

This is a hidden gem. A small food menu and small venue but such a positive atmosphere. Unique drinks and food. All was delicious. There is plenty of staff and they are fun and attentive. This is a must!

We went in the evening for Amaro during their opening week in September. The atmosphere was very sophisticated with soft lighting that is perfect for a date night or after work cocktails. For drinks, we ordered an Amargarita, which I would highly recommend, and an old-fashioned which is another good choice. To eat, we went with the Truffle Pizzetta, it has an incredibly rich flavor and we will definitely order it again.
