Breakfast sandwich came cold after 10min. Coffee was good but took 20min. Very chaotic and disorganized inside, never given a ticket and had to guess what food was mine. Dirty and very loud inside. I would recommend other places in wicker.

Absolutely NOT worth the hype. After seeing Sarima on Infatuation Chi and all over social media, thought we’d try it out. They were not serving Dosas which was a huge disappointment. Luckily the line was short enough to fit inside and moved fast, but that was misleading because after ordering it still took 30 min to get our lattes. The Kaaju tasted like milk and bitter beans. The sweet potato latte just tasted like cream. The latte making process is incredibly inefficient and ineffective. They add the hot espresso directly to the premade iced latte, which likely is the reason for the awful bitter and sour aftertaste. On the positive side, they do a decent job replenishing the pastries and are able to serve those directly at the register. the ube cheesecake cookie was decent, but still nothing id go out of my way to get. There are so many other authentic and local coffee shops to try. Sad waste of $25. There was also no seating even after waiting 30+min. Skip this one.

They have the best staff as a whole customer service top-tier. The thicc Sando breakfast sandwich has entered towards the top of my list. I am pleasantly surprised, but the sweet potato latte get it iced for the cold foam layer on top…very very crowded. The line move fast and workers working like a well oil machine. They were restocking the donuts while I was waiting. That’s what I love to see .This is my first time coming here, but it will not be my last..

Stopped in this Sunday morning, very nice customer service I received from the barista (male) with the glasses. I had the chai doughnut with an ooey gooey spiced cream in the middle. It went well with hot coffee to melt the crystallized sugar on top. Thanks! They don’t accept Cash.

The sweet treats were quite enjoyable. The drinks had nothing special about them with bland flavoring or all the wrong flares. The service was not there with a long wait for the baristas to finish their idle chit chat. If you’re looking for personality, good drinks, or special care in service Wormhole is the coffee shop for you even if there’s a line. They understand urgency and their coffee is sought after.

The dosa does NOT come with Samabar or any dipping sauce, the website is wrong. It was disappointing.

If it serves anything Ube - I’m there! That’s what landed me at Sarima Cafe on a sunny Saturday with my girlfriends. I ordered the Lilac Latte, a Food of the Gods bar, an Ube Cookie and a Pandan Cookie.
Frankly speaking, other than the “Food of the Gods” bar, which is a soft, chewy bar featuring mostly banana, that is simply delicious and melt in your mouth. The other two cookies were massive but unremarkable.
The HIGHLIGHT, however, was that Ube Latte. I got it at 50% sweetness which was perfect for me!!! I enjoyed this drink SO SO SO MUCH, I actually dream about it! Cant wait to go back and get some!
Amazing place! Staff is as sweet as the cupcakes! That sandwich is impeccable (also the chai with it). Love this spot!
Def. A must place to go in Chicago, especially if you're headed towards west town!

Omg these pastries were amazing. Huge servings for a great price honestly! My favs were the turon cookie and food for the god bar. Honorable mention to the kujol cookie and pumpkin bibingka. I want to come back to try more of the donuts and the drinks! They run out of the donuts closer to the afternoon so go early!

Between the dosa and the breakfast sandwich, def pick the breakfast sandwich! Dosa needed a sauce or something. Cookies were fun to try.
If you’re looking to catch up with a friend, this place was SO LOUD. They had rock/metal playing and could not hear a thing. We were yelling across the table.

Visiting from Melbourne, Australia, my cousin took me here to try. I wasn’t truly that impressed. We ordered turon and pandan cookies that didnt taste like turon or pandan at all. I love the glazed donut though, it wasn’t too sweet and just the right amount of cream! And the Ube affogato is must try!!! Overall it was great but won’t go again. We went on a Thursday morning and there was no wait, granted it did start to get busy at noon.
