“I wanted to take a moment to recognize Carla for her incredible customer service. I had placed a pickup order for my son, but for some reason the order hadn’t come through. I was frazzled, and my son was having a rough moment.

Carla was patient and reassuring. She immediately took care of the situation without making me feel like I was a bother at all, and managed to calm me down in the process. She went above and beyond when I really needed a little kindness.

I’m so grateful for how she handled the situation.Thank you again, Carla!“

“Ridman's is the best! I'm glad they're in my neighborhood!“

“My favorite coffee shop…EVER!!☕️❤️☕️❤️☕️“

“October Cafe is by far the best coffee shop around Chicagoland…. If you have not tried it you are missing out. The coffee flights change and always come with a wonderful theme. The owners are friendly wonderful strong women who show so much compassion for the community. I am blessed to have found this cafe, as a place that is relaxing and cozy and feels like home. The baristas ring a bell and announce your flight and bring you your meal and drinks if you dine in. So wonderful! Thank you October Cafe for making a place for fundraising, local artists, crafters and other entrepreneurs to sell their items. 10 out of 10 stars across the board. ⭐️ 🎃 Pumpkins you won’t be disappointed trust me!“

“Seeking coffee In a foreign land we ventured to Cozy Cafe. I found the smooth beats of Green Onions playing on the sound system and historic memorabilia added to the warm and cozy environment. We had excellent service provided by Ricky, as he made our drinks and gathered pastries. Nice spot!“

“We came for the first time and really enjoyed it!

We had the beef pho, shrimp spring rolls, classic bahn mi sandwich, Vietnamese coffee, and their Nutella latte. Everything was really great! The pho had a very clean and flavorful broth, the shrimp spring rolls were very light and refreshing, and the classic bahn mi was really tasty.

It’s also awesome they serve really great coffee/drinks to enjoy with your meal. The viet coffee is served with some condensed milk and cream, but wasn’t overly sweet and was perfectly balanced.

The staff was very kind and hospitable and the environment is very chill and tranquil with a modern interior. Look forward to visiting again!“

“great cookies, stellar coffee, incredible staff. consistently high quality environment to meet friends and colleagues alike.“

“Friendly customers and employees. The coffee is spectacular. Can't wait to come back.“

“Have been here several times for their chai latte which, my opinion, is fantastic. I’ve also had their bagel melt with a turkey sausage and it was great. It came with a side of chips. Very close to the chicago botanical garden and prices are good. Really nice atmosphere, kind of like a bistro. Fun place to go to, and the people are great.“

“If you're looking for an inclusive, bada$$, local place to spend money & enjoy delicious coffee and baked goods - RUN to Loaves and Witches! Staff are always so kind and attentive, the atmosphere is witchy and comforting. They have tarot reading events. The cinnamon roll is delicious w/ a generous frosting top and edible gold flakes And their chocolate chip cookie? Delectable! Ooie and gooie with salt crystals on top. & Don't even get me started on their rosemary bagel. I've spent years trying to find a coffee shop in Chicago thats welcoming, LGBTQ+ friendly and has quality goods. This place is amazing and an absolute Chicago gem! 🖤🖤🖤“

“The best coffee shop in Highland Park/Deerfield area! Best customer service and perfect atmosphere for work meeting, reading a book or grabbing coffee with a friend!“

“oh my gosh, Hewn is so cool – – such inventive and hearty and wholesome and beautiful flavor combinations – – I especially love what they do with fruit and nuts. I’m not surprised at all that their holiday special offerings sell out so quickly – – This is a special kind of bakery – – not too refined as to only have the sweetest and most delicate of desserts – – but more of a chefs kind of place – – you know the ingredients are going to be the finest out there. My only quibble is the inflexibility with the vegetarian sandwiches in their refrigerator – – the staff would not make me a fresh sandwich. But this is a minor quibble. I really do recommend them without reservation.“

“Stumbled upon this Cafe after Starbucks messing up my order one to many times lol. The coffee,food and service is amazing. I haven’t been back to Starbucks after finding this gem. Hard to pick a favorite coffee when they all have been delicious but if I had to choose just one, I would have to say the Horchata latte. I highly recommend this place.“

“I was visiting from out of town when I found this place a couple blocks away. The deluxe breakfast sandwich and Spanish latte are delicious! Can’t wait to return to try the Biscoff cookie latte. Service was quick and friendly. I will be back!“

“Very friendly and excellent service, highly recommended.“

“Best coffee in Chicago!! Hands down“

“I really love this place. It has a simple yet chic aesthetic, perfect for hunkering down and getting some work done. There is some light conversation, but generally it's pretty quiet. I appreciate the variety of table sizes they have! Everything from chairs and benches to standing and communal tables, perfect for every size party. The baristas and staff are also very friendly and helpful. I can't tell you how refreshing it is to have a delightful kouign-amann (definitely try one if you haven't) and a London fog at one of their little window-side standing tables. This is a great place for a both quick coffee breaks and longer work sessions.“

“Great spot for coworking, read a book, or playing board games. Their lattes are wonderful and love the baristas. Make your beverages with so much attention and love. The latte art is amazing too !!

I got their pumpkin spice latte. It was different from other places as it is not just made with the pumpkin spice “spices” but also with pumpkin puree. And I loved that they are intentional about their food and beverages.

Highly recommend !!“

“Thank you, Backlot Coffee, for letting us use our personal cups again and helping to protect the environment.“

“We happened to stop by after getting Pho close by and absolutely loved our coffee! Traditional Vietnamese coffee in a sleek and modern shop! We will be back next time we are in Chicago. Also the guy working the register was extremely helpful!“

“The vibe….so sooooooo good“

“Had a great experience with my husband. It is a charming tea shop where the owners are so welcoming and often checking in on guests. Our hostess made tea recommendations for our afternoon tea and no drop was left in our teapots! Which speaks volumes because my husband is not a tea lover at all. Thank you Tealula!“

“First time there today, but I'll be back again soon. The coffee milkshake was so good, as was their cheezy bread! Can't wait to try more!“

“I visit Chicago every year for NYE and Weston’s has become a familiar favorite of mine year after year. I love that the lavender lattes are year-round, absolutely scrumptious pastries, friendly staff, and the environment is comfortable. Earlier this month before heading out, I went to purchase a sweatshirt but they didn’t have any in store in my size. Nick, the owner, went above and beyond offering to meet up beforehand, but I just didn’t have time-so he shipped it. It’s so comfy and I love that I’m able to represent another business that is close to my heart. Thanks, Weston’s!“

“Excellent highly recommended“
