I like how it’s culture conscious coffee and was excited when I saw house made nut milk, organic, etc but our lattes tasted so bad to us it felt like we were forcing ourselves to drink it and we couldn’t even finish it - we got the hazelnut horchata and maple maca… which is unfortunate because the milk and coffee seemed really creamy and good but the flavors added were honestly just lacking and terrible + we got a spinach feta pastry and it was pretty bland ~ might possibly come back to try a normal latte with a syrup of choice but I don’t know if I can get over how bad today’s was, for $25, very disappointing and not what we expected
update: got a caramel oatmilk latte… it was definitely better + service was good … still tho, will not be back tbh and I do NOT recommend a visit

Great food and drink options. The place itself is a bit chilly in the winter and they could be friendlier.

This quaint coffee shop is wonderful, and it has the tastiest baklava I have had tasted yet in the Chicago area. Truly, it is incredible. I highly recommend coming here!!
I also got a golden chai latte and it was the most perfectly spiced chai latte I have tasted here as well. Honestly a wonderful experience!

Way overpriced for underseasoned and uninspired food. Our lattes were not to our tastes as they were rather bougie while lacking the pizzaz that makes those artesian drinks worth the costs.

Oromo is one of my favorite local spots. They offer something like five kinds of homemade nutmilk (so decadent!), and their baked goods are out of control. They even make their own chocolate for the mocha coffee drinks with coconut sugar. My only complaint is they don't sell the chocolate by the jar. (I would buy so many jars!) The people at this location are especially kind and friendly. Get in here!

I went here on a whim when my Sister was in town. We are both gf/df due to issues we have. Never in my entire life have I loved everything I’ve tried here. The gluten free/dairy free selection is unreal. I love the avocado toast and gf brownie the best.I ordered delivery this time and got an almond milk cappuccino with rose in it. I rarely finish all my coffee. My partner was shocked I drank it so fast and all of it. The coffee…like what crack are you putting in your coffee? We ordered beans to go via delivery app and MY GAWD! One of the best we’ve ever had and my partner is a beyond particular about his coffee. If I won the lottery I would honestly invest in this place making it available to the masses. You guys are doing it all right. Every coffeehouse should take note.

Such a cool little coffee shop with Turkish coffee and TONS of creative other coffee drinks and tasty bites. The pesto mint goat cheese panini is unreal good
Visited Oromo for breakfast with friends, the food was delicious, the staff were very friendly and the cafe itself had a cozy atmosphere, we loved it! My personal favourites were the breakfast naan, cookies and their frozen blends, they are like healthy organic version of frappuccinos??

A charming coffee shop that specializes in Turkish coffee and snacks, but also offers a wide variety of teas and coffees. I tried their matcha, and it was fantastic. I absolutely loved the cozy atmosphere and can't wait to return!! Thank you Oromo Cafe. ??❤️

No idea how this place has 4.6 stars. I got an ice matcha latte and it was literally just MILK. When I asked if I could get some more matcha, they put another scoop (which I really appreciate) but it ended up getting all chunky and still tasting like just milk. Ended up throwing it away. As a local coffee shop, I expected better. but unfortunately I’d take Starbucks or Dunkin matcha over this place anyday.

Really good cafe! I’m not really a coffee shop person but I did enjoy my time here. I had an iced matcha latte and it did not disappoint. I also have allergies to several of the menu items and they were careful to keep that in mind. I’ll definitely be back and try more items.
