Amazing people and wonderful service. Truly impressed with everything.
Worked out of here with my friend the other day. Amazing vibe and great coffee. Ambiance was great. The only complaint is the cell signal is really bad inside (and that entire lakeshore east area)!

Loved hearing the live jazz, Wes Dziedzic, piano, Kat Sherman, vocals and having a relaxing, delicious casual dinner ❤️

I tried the cinnamon latte and it was delicious! If you don’t like very sweet beverages, you can let them know prior and they will use less sugar.
The place is very cute, plenty of seating inside and about 4 or 5 tables outside. Lovely view of the park.

Awesome cafe at the bottom of the Street Regis complex. Wifi and good seats and big selection of healthy options for a good start to the day. The breakfast burritos and oatmeal options are fab.

It doesn't cost anything to be polite, even when your cafe is busy. Not today apparently.
Captive audience in the area, but still expected better.

Solid cup of coffee, which is the important thing - expect a line, the staff are helpful but busy so please god almighty know what you want when you get to the counter
Beyond that, nothing remarkable, if it’s your closest coffee joint it’s a fine choice

A quiet nice place to go eat breakfast or hang out...the food and coffee are so good (dark coffee and salmon bagel was superb)...the service is fine to good no issues...such a cool place and the park across the street is an amazing place to hang and meditate...go check them out!

As I live just steps from this place, I really want to like it. It has the potential to be a great local's coffee spot...cozy atmosphere, friendly staff, local events, and good quality products - all great! Unfortunately, the place has become an unofficial dog park. Despite signage prohibiting non-service animals, it seems like this is widely ignored as there are usually several non-service type dogs inside the shop at any given time. I get that it is a touchy subject, but I wish they would enforce the "dog rule". Coffee shops and dogs just don't mix! Moreover, everything is simply overpriced - it is literally less expensive to get a coffee and pastry next door at the St. Regis!

Drink menu is really bad. Great location but coffee is horrendous.
Solid spot but the owner of this place has the audacity to charge an “online order fee” when going through their own website. I could understand if it was on ubereats or another ordering platform that takes a cut. This petty greediness makes me much less likely to eat lunch here when im short on time between calls.

Service and atmosphere were fine. We sat outside and watched dog owners buy their dogs snacks from the cute dog snack truck parked out front. The coffee seems to be hit or miss. My husband ordered an oat milk matcha latte, which was really good. I was disappointed with my pumpkin spice late because although it smelled like pumpkin spice, it tasted like plain coffee with cream. No pumpkin flavor or sweetness. I'm glad I tried this coffee spot, but wouldn't go out of my way to go back

Way over priced. The place itself is cool and across from a lovely park. Service is slow and staff seemed rather bothered. Coffee was mediocre. Was expecting more from a $7 croissant and $13 breakfast sandwich. I wouldn’t recommend this spot.
