“This place is a total experience! The food is delicious, the decor is artsy and beautiful, and the owners are absolute gems. my family and I went for the first time yesterday and had the BEST time. we came for some quick pierogi but stayed for the ambiance, warm welcome, and fantastic conversation with the owners. This cafe is charming beyond belief and we will definitely be back. This is the perfect place to stop in with some friends or loved ones when you are out and about in the neighborhood. I guarantee you will want to come back again and again.“

“The place is cozy and welcoming, the aroma inside is divine. We went in for a quick to go order of freshly baklava and there were so many varieties.Husband and I will definitely be back to enjoy more than the desserts. A perfect place for a coffee date.“

“Cozy place also can get flavored coffees. We shared a House crepe and the four of us had combos. I only tasted the Mexican combo and I will try it next time. Lots of fresh fruit came with the crepes, waffle and french toast. Savory crepes are tempting to try as well. I tried nice BBQ crepe in Vermont last year and liked it. Savory crepes are good for lunch and dinner. Managers were very friendly.“

“Tony’s pulls no punches when it comes to late night or early morning dining. I’ve never seen such a variety of options from a 24hr restaurant which makes it the clear choice as they have little something for everyone. This is where I’d put a photo of one of my meals…but I ate it too fast to get the chance.“

“Very friendly lady (reminded me of my grandma) in the front to greet you. Cute little local coffee shop. With great prices after COVID especially. Most coffee shops around Chicago area have raised their prices so was nice to spend less. Obviously i support small business' raising their prices to survive. That's life. I ordered a dirty chai and it was great! Great coffee. However was a bit sweet but that was my fault for rushing to the bathroom and not talking to the kind lady about what sweetness I wanted. ALSO the bathroom is very CLEAN. It was like a home bathroom. Please others keep it clean as well :)“

“This place has the most incredible crepes, both sweet and savory. The only bad part is choosing what to get. We always go way overboard and get a couple different ones to eat as a family, but you can't help it. It's all delicious.“

“I love stopping here when I'm picking up food from one of the other stores. Everything we have tried so far is absolutely delicious! Their desserts are not too sweet... just the perfect amount! My personal favorite is the fluffy cheese cake! My kids love the oreo cake cups and the strawberry shortcake cups! Can't wait to try the other desserts! HIGHLY recommend!“

“This is our go-to takeout spot. They have plenty of vegan and gluten free options. The massaman curry and basil fried rice are my personal favorites. You can tell they use fresh ingredients and spices. I've had the chive dumplings, fried tofu, veggie egg roll, cucumber salad. (All marked vegan on the menu which I highly appreciate). The panang curry was waaaay too spicy for me so I'm sticking with massaman. I haven't dined in but whenever I pick up take out, the staff is super friendly and the restaurant has a peaceful atmosphere.“

“This place carries a huge variety of magazines, including in foreign languages. That said, my favorite area to browse is the wall of books on Chicago; the various neighborhoods, unique bits of history, architecture and on & on. The cafe area excels in its own right with coffee & pastries - even vegan options. Enjoy a great cup of coffee and live music on weekends. Just a wonderful place.“

“I love this coffee shop. They were friendly, they knew me by name, and their coffee and specialty drinks are tasty. I also really enjoyed their Avacado toast. It was absolutely delicious. It is refreshing to go to a locally own coffee shop, that has a wonderful atmosphere, and great prices too. I highly recommend this coffee shop to anyone in the area.“

“Of all the places I've tried around the city, Taste of Colombia has the best coffee anywhere in Chicago. My favorite part though is the wonderful people who work there! I feel super fortunate to have them just two blocks from my house. Make sure to give them a try!How cool this place is! They have the best coffee and desserts in all of Chicago, but the best thing is the people who work there. Many thanks to Naima, Toni and Alejandra. Always a pleasure to spend some time with you every weekend!“

“What an amazing time! The Breakfast Pie (Louisiana Hand Pie) was absolutely delicious, and their Matcha was the perfect accompaniment. The service was incredibly friendly and welcoming - I felt right at home! The decor, with its New Orleans vibes and charming masks, creates such a cozy and inviting atmosphere. Loved every moment of my visit!“

“One of the best coffee roasters in the western burbs, and definitely my favorite coffee shop to work from. Their signature and seasonal drinks are great, plus this location also serves cocktails. Highly recommend!Parking: Parking is ample, but can be a bit tricky due to the layout of the building.“

“So excited to come back to this shop and try their coffee. We got a chai latte and cold brew lemonade which were both too strong for our liking. It looks like there is a variety of pastries all the time - the butter croissant was delicious, so flaky, soft, and flavorful. They also have outdoor seating on the side of the building, so excited to sit out there when the weather gets nicer. Service was super friendly and we got our order quickly.“

“The best cheese cake I have ever had. Good place to stop if you need to bring dessert. So many flavors to choose from. I highly recommend Eli's. I can remember when Eli's restaurant was downtown on East Chicago Ave., We would have dinner and cheesecake for dessert. I always have one in the freezer, for unexpected guest. Peter K.“

“Came in today for the first time. Customer service was great. I ordered a steak sandwich, cafe con leche, and a pastelito. Everything tasted really good. I ordered to go and was in and out. The place is a little small so maybe for a sit down place it might be a little cramped but that's not a deal breaker for me. Definitely a must try if you are in the neighborhood!“

“I've known for a long time that I can get a great cup of coffee in a pleasant and upbeat shop at Perkolator, but today I learned that they're also a woman-owned business on their Instagram page, so I wanted to hop on here and say, thanks for the great coffee and service, Perkolator. And also thank you for highlighting being woman owned. You rock and I'm celebrating your success today and always.“

“Went in for the third time yesterday for a quick lunchtime snack and caffeine. On the recommendation of the baristas, I ordered the ham and havarti croissant and a coffee. Both of the items were excellent. The environment was comfortable and well designed for either relaxing or for light work. Left feeling overall pleased with the experience and would definitely return to Vigo again.“

“This place is amazing. I went to NO a few times in my youth. The first time I went I got red beans and rice right on the street and decided I probably never needed to eat anything else ever. This place brought that back to me. Through sausage on it. Might be gilding the lily but maybe some lily’s like it.The rigamaroo was so freaking good. The po boys were spicy and deliciousThe gumbo. Lord the gumbo. The flavor, then”juice” the gravy…whatever it’s called.l. So good…but I want it to have shrimp in it though…or maybe crawfish…but I might die of deliciousnessCountry music makes me very sad so I took one star away for ambiance. It is the old school stuff so only one point taken away.“

“Fantastic food with large servings for a great price!The atmosphere is not anything special, but i did find the place very cold temperature wise.Service was good but they could of used more staff. To be fair it was fat Tuesday when I dined there but there was one person working that we could see (maybe more in the kitchen) and poor lady had a line of take out and a full restaurant to take care of!Would recommend and plan on going back :)“

“I cannot speak highly enough of the quality, goodness and the richness of the products and the pure heart of the staff.. but I will! The shop + staff is truly wonderful and amazing in every sense of the word. From the design of the Matcha bowls, to the very unique one of a kind savory flavors of a variety of snacks and chocolate. Face cleansers, plant based protein shakes, dark chocolate with healing herbs, tea sets, oils, herbs. A plethora. I felt so happy stepping into the shop. I highly recommend trying a bit of everything. There is so much to choose throughout the whole shop like the bowls.. Everything is high end quality, reasonably and fairly priced and sourced. The authenticity of the energy and products of this shop is real. The lanyards are super cute. The merch items are beautiful. If you in the area, or wanting to add this place to your must stop to see, please stop by, bring a friend and explore together what is the wonderful world .. of Wonderful Matcha. Also! It brought me a huge smile to know of the organic items they have and how warm and inviting the staff who work here are. The whole process of seeing my drink made, brought me tears of joy to be transparently honest. It reached the fondness of the deepest parts of my heart with such wonder and joy. Izzy even shared knowledge about matcha making. Which I loved and appreciated learning. Thank you Wonderful Matcha for bringing these items to us Thank you for your welcoming inviting spirits. Thank you for being in the community. This is my joy place and I’ll be stopping by regularly. AND THEY HAVE AN OPTION FOR BIRTHDAY GIFT BOX MAKING. Just name your price and the staff creates beautifully put together high quality gift boxes to gift to your friends and family. AND THEY HAVE NATURAL HERB TEAS!!!“

“I just wish I took photos but no biggie because I will be back. For 40 dollars we got two huge plates, an appetizer and drinks. These plates consisted of beef and steak also! You simply do not go out to eat for that price anymore. Prices good, cute little cafe, food taste, quality, portion is PHENOMENAL. Never in my life have I had a more tender meat than the shish kabob. Everybody on staff is so friendly and accommodating. They get so busy!!! So many people in and out and I see why. Eisaa thank you so much!! You are a beautiful person with a wonderful business. Shawarma and middle eastern cuisine is my absolute favorite and I could attest this is one of the best places I have ever been. So good on every level.“

It was wild coming back to the area that I grew up in to visit my parents and find a place that felt like it should have been here all along.Great coffee and free old school/classic arcade games, along with board games and cider/beer options too. What more could you ask for?“

“Let me start off this review by stating that i do not write reviews, never have and will not start to, BUTT this cafe is so underrated! I need everyone to understand how good their food and drinks are. Now just to clarify I know nothing about protein or calories but I do know a little something about GOOD FOOD. Ive been going to this location for over a year now and have had the opportunity to try their different menu items, Ive also had the pleasure to get to know one of their managers, Taylor. A very lovely woman, comfortable aura and I always have pleasant conversations with her. Moving on to their food and drinks, the first thing Ive ever tried was a regular chicken panini and my lord that first bite was immaculate. The way they stacked all the ingredients and panini pressed the sandwich bread makes eating it so much fun. ALSO they add apples...APPLESSS and guess what? its so fricking good, something about the sweet crisp taste of apple and the savory/salty meats and spice goes so well together. ugh 10/10. The next thing I got to try was their arroz caldo soup. It transported me back to 8 years old and it was one of those very unforgiving cold days, just coming back from school, opening the front door to the smell of your grandparent's or parent's caldo de res (latinos know) proceeding to have 2 and half bowls then knocking out. Yeah 9/10 good soup. Next was smoothies and Im not going into detail on the smoothies, they were very delicious and filled me up quite right, they were good size for the price and all are very different. The ones Ive tried were the power monkey (my favorite ughhh so good) the twenty 5 thirty 2 (very filling) and the super mario (somehow feels like im drinking some type of dessert and i love that). lovee 9.5/10. The last items Ive tried were the detox shots and oh boy.. Ive tried the good cocktail and the ginger shot. I didn't know that my bowels had the power to go into overdrive like that but they did. These shots for sure do what they claim to do and I love that I get exactly what I pay for. 9/10 but making sure to plan the day accordingly. The cafe is very chill and decorated nicely, clean and order to pickup time is quick (unless busy but dont be a douchebag and rush a masterpiece) I always go with my usual and its always so consistently delicious. Like I said earlier managers/employees are very welcoming and polite, even the boss will come and have a conversation with you and he is very nice and has jokes (funny guy over here). They also have another location in Wicker Park and it is also very nice, slightly bigger so there is more seating and has the same quality of food and drinks. And they do have more menu items so take a look. overall 9.5/10“

“I came to this place with my wife because we enjoy having a few cheap drinks and trying our luck with the slots. Fortunately I won $75 from a $20, would have been the $120 but I pushed my luck. Nevertheless Windsor Café had great friendly service, cheap drinks, and a clean & sanitary establishment for people to kick back and have a great time!“

“Cute, cozy place! Went on a weekend and there was a ~15 minute wait. The place is small and can get full quickly. There are larger tables in the back for bigger groups. The staff speaks Spanish and they are all very kind. The drink menu is extensive, and there are tons of Mexican inspired breakfast dishes. I loved that the paninis and sandwhiches came with a side of pasta! I had the cajeta latte, which was very tasty, although I will omit the chocolate/cookie rim next time as it was a bit too much for me. The hot guayaba tea (pictured) almost tasted like ponche; it was very delicious! My one complaint is that our dishes were all brought out separately, and I wish they were all brought in together. Otherwise, great place and would recommend it!“

“The name is slightly misleading, as they are not open outside of hosting events.Saw a local artist there and was very impressed with the venue. Very atmospheric and with a pretty good sound system. They have good lighting and smoke effects as well.The venue does do a lot of shows and poetry and art stuff. So check their calendar to see what they offerOnly complaint is that the refreshments are pretty overpriced. However, they got you and what else are you going to do? The tea was actually very good however. Would recommend even at the high price pointVegetarian options: They offer eesatz dairy free milksParking: Parking lot in front of the cafe is sure by other businesses and is kind of small. There is additional parking around the corner. Not too far of a walkWheelchair accessibility: People in wheelchairs might have an issue as there are a lot of tables in the hallways are kind of cramped“
“I decided to visit this cafe because of the high reviews. I'm certainly glad that I did. The food was all delicious but what really sets this place apart is the service. Mimi is the nicest lady. She greeted my children warmly. She is very attentive and kind. You can tell she takes pride in her restaurant and making sure you leave in a better mood than you arrived. I'd give the service 10 stars if I could.“

“These days I'm not sure a bakery can really deliver everything one'd hope for in the past. Lezza has a great variety of bakery products, and you'll find some of them to be very reasonably priced. I love the lemon knot cookies and the Italian ice, and you'll find traditional cookies here too as well as danishes and donuts. There are very few independently owned places anymore with variety and low-cost options for treats and coffee, but this is one of them!“

“Golly Gumpers! This place will make your mouth water, your tongue tingle and your wallet bleed. Not only do they craft artisan sandwiches on fresh like God's air bread, they have the best Macaroni salad that would put mehmay's bbq to shame. Once you are teleported into a food coma from the array of bad decisions you made for your summer diet, wash it down with a fresh double chocolate cookie that will make you levitate from the excitement. If you have some extra penny's to rub together, try your luck at the slots. Only the most elite of our society gamble here since the PD is across the street. No having to worry about the local creep in a puffer jacket and ski mask in July, whew! If you are really feeling freaky, try the shrimp. I hate fish like Trump hates the truth, but my wife says it's Fire! Happy eating and competing!“

“I just tried a mini pumpkin pie that was served at a wedding a few days ago. The pie was delicious and the crust was still flaky and perfect - and that’s after a few days! I can’t wait to take my family to the shop. As a mother to a daughter with Down Syndrome, I absolutely love supporting businesses like this. Thank you for creating job opportunities for people like my daughter!“

“When you enter the Stella's place in the quaint strip mall right on Roosevelt and Mannheim, you wonder what it could be and how beauty relates to gaming. Well, the two sisters who man's the register and smiles are absolutely adores, patient and sisterly. I had some issues that were personal and used this space as a nice little getaway from the bustle of the day that can get me stressed and so bottled up. I had some issues with connecting to the service on the gaming console and they were eager to help, Denise and Tomika are true God sends. We had intimate conversation that made believe that the world could use more Stella's places around to be a home away from home while having a little fun. The drinks are cold and crisp just like how anyone would like it and you have a variety of cafe options to choose from. One of my fave games is the rocky game and it sure doesn't disappoint. I hope that I always have this pleasant experience, customer service sure does go a long way! I travel far just to see these girls. Thanks for having me! Clarissa #sandracoinent as seen on Linkedin“
