Good things: The patio is nice, the whole beans they sell are really good quality. The bad Things: There is an older guy that works there who is super rude, unfortunately he's probably the manager or owner. Avoid that dude. The rest of the staff is great! Also, the bathroom is always dirty, they let dogs jump on the counter (even though they make food). My Coffee got cold and I asked for a warm up and the old guy told me I needed to buy a whole new cup. dude.. how cheap can you be?!

Great secluded patio. Dogs are allowed. It is loud because of the train, if that’s a concern. Theres umbrellas in case it starts raining, which has been helpful multiple times now. Cafe is on the small side, but still nice with records available to pick out and play in the record player. Lavender latte always hits the spot. Overall great vibes, super friendly employees and good coffee!

I really loved my experience every time I come here. Staff is so inviting and generous with the space accommodations. Beverages are an A+. As someone who can be critical of coffee, They won’t disappoint you. Also love the vinyl selection and peaceful/spacious back patio. Thanks yall!

I really like this place. It reminds me of a coffee shop I used to work at in the bay like 10 years ago. Good drinks, good vibes, and lovely staff. They're open late (10pm 7 days a week!!) and are right off the Irving Park Brown line stop. The only reason why I'm giving them a 4/5 is that for the indoor seating I wanna say only the communal tables has chairs with back support and the rest don't. Their patio has chairs with back support but of course that isn't open in the winter :-p it gets packed in there so I rarely take my chances during the daytime and tend to go here in the evenings

I came here 30 minutes before close to use the "print with me" station before I was making an international flight. The staff was in the back and even though I I knocked on the door they never came to the front. They had already locked the doors 30 minutes early and did not let me come in. It's unfortunate because this is a coffee shop that I thought was both open late and had the printing option but based on my experience, I will never come back here.

A local non-chain coffee house that’s open until 10 PM daily and it’s right off the CTA Irving Park Brown Line station. Most local coffee shops do not tick off the boxes that way.A real gem of a coffee shop.Menu is very straight forward and simple/no frills.The decor is a mix of industrial, nothing pretentious and adorned with vintage vinyls all throughout the shop.Wifi is great by the way!Dietary restrictions: Non-dairy milk offered.

This place is a hidden gem. They have fun coffee and teas though I have only had the coffee. Breakfast sammie's have no business being as good as they are. (Chefs kiss) Also, somehow it is always busy yet always a spot to sit! Highly recommend if you are in the 'hood.Parking: Close to train. Off hours can usually find a spotKid-friendliness: Not a lot of space for strollers. Kids would be welcome but not a ton of space

This is a cute and cosy coffee shop that serves the most delicious coffee! And their breakfast bagels are so tasty as are their scones- they have limited quantities as it’s all made fresh so get there early for baked goods. And the vibe is so chill and staff are super nice. Also love that it’s open later than normal coffee shops.

Excellent latte in a funky coffee shop with cool choice of vinyl for your soundtrack. If you are a connoisseur of great espresso drinks this is a great spot! Coffee is a bit more affordable than other local spots.

Fast and friendly service. Love that vintage vinyl albums are playing in the background.

Came in on a Sunday evening because they are open til 10. The place was quite busy at 6 and stayed steady the entire time I was there. The coffee was great. The place itself has a good amount of seating, with a few spots in the window. The music was a bit loud for anyone needing to take calls, but other than that, this is a great place to

Did some work around the corner from this cafe and popped in for a bite and a beverage. They did not disappoint. Definitely the kind of place that cares about quality. The coffee I had (from Counter Culture roasters) was stellar. And the tomato basil and cheese scone I consumed was straight out of the oven and quite possibly the best scone I’ve ever had. I will gladly return if I’m ever remotely close to that part of town again. Really a gem of a place.
