I'm glad to finally make it in here after driving past it for a long time. The chicken pesto sandwich is absolutely worth having; white mocha iced coffee was very good and this is coming from a non coffee drinker. Also had the spicy avocado toast, and the mocha mushroom hot coffee is also worth a try. The staff was chill and the vibes are there. I'm really hoping this location continues to thrive after all they've been through. 🔥💪🏾

Loved the welcoming atmosphere when I arrived. Ordered the panini sandwich and it was tasty. Great place to work, read and pass time. Will definitely be back.

I paid 7 dollars for a large cup of coffee, which I don’t mind but it was ice cold and terrible quality. The barista need to be trained better. Also no cream for the coffee that day.

This was a really cute spot! My partner and I went after hearing about it in Block Club, and it's nicely located on the end of the block with a good view of the Metra Electric. The staff were very courteous and the coffee was good. The food was also good, but I will warn that their kitchen space is small and they cannot make that much food at once - a table of several people had ordered just before us and so we had to wait a while before getting our food. The vibes were great though, as was the coffee - I would just check with the person at the register about how many food orders are ahead before ordering any hot meals if you're on a time crunch! I hope this place succeeds!

I have attempted to patronize this coffee shop three times and this place is NEVER open. There aren’t even any hours posted anywhere which is strange. It makes you wonder if it’s a real business 🤔.

I ordered a mocha latte. The espresso smelled amazing, body and the flavor paired well with the chocolate.

The vibe and aesthetics are nice, but the coffee is...bad. The baristas need better training and they need to buy higher quality coffee.

Update: Decided to give them a second chance and I was even more disappointed. The coffee was still bad. The baristas working were rude and acted like they were annoyed that they had to actually work. On top of that, they didn't know how to actually make a matcha (which is on their menu).

It's a shame because I was really excited to have a neighborhood coffee shop, but it's really missing the mark. I hope they get it together. I'll try again in a couple months.

There are no business hours posted clearly outside or even on this Google listing. They’re getting there but still no cigar, I came when they were the old name and it was similar. Just came to go in @11:10a and the door was locked with ppl inside. No clear entrance I came in on the side. So idk if they are actually open or what. Unfortunate, I’ll try again for a 3rd time when I see more effort placed into hours etc.
