I’ve been coming to this shop since they opened, and it’s easily my favorite coffee shop in the area. The staff are very friendly and relational (especially Julian), and the coffee is consistently great (which is harder to find around here). Unlike most shops in the area, the consistency and quality of both service and product is refreshing. In addition to that, the atmosphere makes for a great place to meet with friends, get some work done, or just sit back and read a book. Overall a fantastic local shop!

Super cute cafe, very similar to Foxtrot! Had to drop it down to two stars because I ordered a cold brew and after I had paid and settled in, they came over to tell me they were out of cold brew, so I had to replace it with another drink. A little later, I ordered a breakfast sandwich that was supposed to come with arugula. I received the sandwich with no arugula, so I went up to ask about it and the barista let me know that the sandwich no longer comes with it, despite all of their menus saying it does. Everything tasted great, was just not what was advertised.

If they could just fix their milk steaming for their hot drinks and wipe the outside of the mugs before serving it would be 5 stars.

Great seating area and very bustling. I wish I could give a higher rating, but I had to wait over 15-minutes for a cup of drip coffee at 10 on a Saturday. I don’t typically mind waiting for service, but in Chicago, a cup of joe ready in a few minutes is pretty standard across the city. Besides the issue of timeliness, servers are very courteous. It was clear that members of the small team seemed overwhelmed while on shift, juggling multiple tasks, and constantly running out of ingredients and cookware. Much respect to these hard working Chicagoans, but I have some food for thought… Perhaps a shorter menu, particularly food, and a clearer schedule for making drip coffee could help? Looking forward to see this business grow and succeed on one of the more competitive streets in the city. Will definitely stop by again next time I’m around.

Great decor, very warm service. I liked the cake, and did not like the cappuccino

Really nice. Think elevated, more grown up version of Foxtrot. It feels great in here. Nice and thoughtfully decorated. Nice and warm touches everywhere. Good coffee bar, an all-day cafe + wine bar. Get a glass or buy a bottle and have yourself a day.
It’s great. I’ll be back as often as I can.
Shout out to my friendly staff too. Always a nice and welcoming touch.
10/10 recommend.

Really good pastry! Shaken espresso was good too, not very sweet but also not bitter

I’ve been looking for a cafe that’s open late with awesome vibes, kind people, and good coffee- Nimble is exactly that! Since coming back from the holidays, I’ve been here multiple times a week to work and hang out with friends.
Will be back very regularly! Also, shoutout to Mike for the hospitality 🙏🏽
When a local business starts up its always good to support it! The staff is so friendly and helpful, especially Sapphire, one of the Barista's. She showed me around, recommended a variety of drinks, and we had a lovely conversation! I will be stopping by again. I also loved the aesthetic of the building, what a gorgeous green color, and I loved the birds in the entryway!

Cute spot. It’s like a Foxtrot 2.0 with cafe / shop.
Coffee is pretty good but maybe not the best spot for work or study. Music is pretty loud, it’s very dim / dark, and smells a bit stuffy / of smoke (don’t think it’s a smoking caffe just what stood out).

It’s such a great café/convenience store! Jeff is the real deal—he makes you feel so welcome and is an awesome guy to chat with. I absolutely love their lattes!
