Oat milk latte and drip coffee were both great. They don’t charge extra for alternative milks which is always a plus. Super friendly and quick service at this walk up to-go style coffee window. Pastries looked great too but didn’t try this time. Will definitely return.

I stop by whenever I am in the area and have always received quite prompt and friendly service. Granted, I do pop by at odd hours compared to a morning or lunch rush.
This window stall only cafe reminds me a lot of these tiny takeout only places that seem to be more common outside of the US. I have not been a huge fan of their specialty drinks but their espresso classics are always delicious and pastries are almost always quite decadent.

The coffee is very good and staff are very friendly but the wait time is crazy. To be fair it’s usually just one person. The line would move much faster if there was another employee.

slow service and the coffee was horrible :(( i got the pumpkin pie latte and it tasted so watered down :( also barista got my drink size wrong i said the smallest size and i was given the largest but i was running late for a mtg so i couldn’t correct it
This place is everything people say it is. The guy who works there is super friendly and fun to talk with, the coffee is special, and the pastries are great. I haven't eaten my Korean BBQ Danish yet, but the donuts I got have me believing this is now the best donut in Chicago. Not since the original Do-Rite on Randolph & Dearborn closed and they became a chain has anyone been the best. Donut Vault was close, as were others, but Move Along is special. Sadly, I ate two donuts, but they're so rich, I should've eaten one. Take a bite, have a sip of coffee, repeat. The Korean BBQ Danish will be my lunch, but I'm going to need to put it in an air-tight container, because the smell is driving me nuts and I'm already full. I go by this place regularly, and there is always a line, so expect to wait to get served through the window.

Move Along feels like a little sanctuary for serious yet unpretentious coffee drinkers. The espresso was bold with a gentle finish earthy, clean, and thoughtfully extracted. The ambiance hums with soft conversations and reflective energy rather than background noise.
I tried their cardamom latte next a silky blend where spice met cream with perfect harmony. Add in friendly service (that doesn’t hover) and cozy seating, and it becomes one of those rare places where you arrive rushed and leave actually refreshed.

Amazing 🤩 coffee!! I wish I can go everyday I happen to be in the city once and randomly stopped here, the gentleman was so kind and warm, which is great nowadays, and he had a special touch with my iced Vanilla latte he added a pinch of sea salt..omg amazing! Planning to go back as soon as I get the chance!! Great local coffee in Chicago and great customer service, I forget his name but dude was talking to me like he knew me (easy Convo-loved it) and when he asked if I mind him adding his special touch I was like Go Ahead werk your magic lol glad I did. And not to mention love the grim reaper/skull art!!
