Im really disappointed with the service today. I ordered a large caramel brulee latte and they started prepping a small, so I corrected them and the Barista barely acknowledged me and then turned around to hide the fact that he was not remaking the latte to have the triple shot I shouldve gotten along with the caramel sweetener and additional milk, but pouring the 12oz into my 16oz cup and calling it a day! It was really rude, patronizing and condesending to treat me as if I wouldnt know that I was being gypted out of the extra shot of espresso, milk and sweetener.

Terrible drip. Tasted burnt for that price. I think they switched their supplier or something happened because it used to be an excellent of coffee. It's terrible right now.

Very nice coffee shop in a nice part of town. They have their cold brew canned coffee available as well as a traditional coffee shop with a wide range of choices. The matcha latte was surprisingly good. Very limited seating indoors.

Usually the best cafe in town. But today was really bad... Me and my friend got a black coffee and a mocha and hers had a fishy taste and mine was super burned and old... I will definitely change this rating should I be contacted and reimbursed....

Today I find myself at a La Colombe “Workshop” in Chicago’s North Loop. For those who have yet to experience La Colombe Coffee, this is Philadelphia’s answer to Starbucks. Unlike their Green counterpart, La Colombe has strived to retain their coffee soul. Sorry Howard, no devils crossroads in Philly.

I’ve ordered my usual. A cappuccino, in a mug, a bit dry.

La Colombe has proven you don’t need to sell out to serve the masses. My cappuccino is simply delicious. Flavor forward, not bitter at all, and the foam creates just the right, smooth confection some of us require to start our day. A respite if you will.

Moreover, the craftsmanship is a testament La Colombe strikes a balance between scale and passion.

If you find yourself walking one of the neighborhoods high fashion stores, step on over to La Colombe in State Street and loose yourself for a spell.

Enjoy

Delicious food, but they don’t have an oven to warm up anything for you to eat atm.

Great spot with a decent menu and a good selection of premium coffee.

The space inside is very small though, only enough seating for maybe ten people at most. This can lead to the line being pushed outside which is not ideal in the winter.

Still though, worth going to if you're close by.

I was looking forward to trying the espresso here but WOAH. Lineup was out the door (Sunday afternoon) so a big no to that kind of wait. So I have to assume it’s a good place if people will to lineup but will try again in future.

I’m a big fan of the draft lattes and had some time to kill so I figured stop in for a quick pick-me-up. The line is usually wrapped around the corner but ended up not being to bad at the time. I ordered a croissant, which they source from Publican, and a cappuccino for here. Snagged a table for such a small shop and waited. The croissant couldn’t be warmed up because they don’t have an oven. It also came out with some kind of fuzz or hair on it? Cappuccino came in the plastic cup even though I specially stated for here. It was also not very hot, almost luke warm. The barista said they could pour it in to a mug but with the lack of foam already, I passed. The experience was fine but I’ll be sticking with my draft canned lattes from now on lol
