It's a small space - a few tables, not all of which have access to an outlet. The table I snagged was off balance and wobbly and pretty dirty. The bathroom did not have soap - it wasn't super busy so not sure the excuse. They had some pastries but none looked appetizing except for the baklava - the only true pro of my visit. Quite tasty though despite saying I was dining in, my drink and treat came in to-go containers (boo). An extra bummer because I saw mugs. I ordered a seasonal ginger bread latte. Fairly decent price point but flavor was lackluster. Staff was friendly enough but they seemed to spend most of their time out of sight in the backroom. Will not be coming back.

Made a quick stop at this coffee shop after running an errand in the neighborhood. Not that I am…read moresuper familiar with all the businesses located in this shopping center (The Shops at Northfield to name it exactly), I certainly missed this quaint coffee shop when I was here for the moving watching etc. I had done. Or is this place brand new where it started to exist after I had been here most recently? It was a little before 8:40am. As most shops don't open until 10am or so, nobody was around on the 46th Street; the coffee shop was thus empty. I got the guy's undue attention upon entering. Cute wall decors, some tables with chairs for people to sit down, nice open bar with a display of sweets and savory are what I noticed. The drink menu (which I didn't take a picture of) is not massive but has got a good selection, all ordinary stuff. I went with my usual: doppio. I also got me one of the baklavas which I saw where all the baked goods are. The tray full of baklavas was on top of the showcase with a lid on it. Looked nicely brown and flaky. Would be a nice mid-morning snack to eat along with my doppio. The guy was efficient. After I placed my order, it was a matter of a minute or two before he handed me the two items. I was the only customer (like I said) but he was super fast. The charge was about $10 for both items. Upon glancing at the electronic receipt, I realized that the baklavas are $7. A bit pricey I thought but they are a good size. Not bad... At home, I enjoyed both of them after my breakfast. I added some almond milk and half and half in my doppio which tasted nice and bitter (for this reason, people think that I drink like the Italians; they do like strong espresso.) The baklava was so filling. The flaky layers stack on top of each other were perfected. The sweetness was just right. For this size/portion, I guess $7 makes sense; the money worth spent for.

The swings, plants, & atmosphere were all super cute and fun! I had a toffee nut latte with…read moremacademia nut milk and shared a Vietnamese coffee - both were great! The pastries were also good. Unfortunately a water line broke while we were in there; the barista was very kind and apologetic, and made an announcement so people could move their cars or leave before the flooding got too out of control. I hope it works out okay and there's not too much damage to the neighborhood!

Some coffee shops announce themselves the moment you walk in. Dandy Lion does it quietly -- a…read morenondescript exterior on 38th Ave in Park Hill that gives way, once you're through the door, to something genuinely unexpected: hanging swing seats, walls of living plants, morning light filtering through greenery, and the smell of something floral already in the air. Owners Duc Huynh and his wife Dominique moved the concept to Park Hill in 2021 , and what they built here is hard to categorize in the best way. It's a craft coffee shop and boutique plant store in one -- and somehow both sides of that equation feel equally intentional rather than one being an afterthought. The menu leans into lavender lattes, Vietnamese iced coffee, and chai, alongside croissants and breakfast burritos -- a lineup that reflects the shop's AAPI-owned roots and a clear point of view on what coffee can be. The Vietnamese iced coffee in particular earns its reputation: rich, layered, and grounding in a way that a standard cold brew just isn't. The lavender latte is a regular on people's standing orders for good reason. The seating situation is worth noting -- swing chairs and limited spots mean arriving early on weekends pays off. Street parking is the move. Best for solo mornings, slow catch-ups with a friend, or anyone who wants to leave with a new plant and a drink they'll be thinking about on the drive home. Open daily 8am-3pm -- get there before the rush.

Great Coffee, Just Know What You're Getting Into…read more This place is absolutely fantastic, but heads up - it's not your typical coffee shop experience. Coda Coffee is purely retail/wholesale, so don't roll up expecting to grab a latte and chill. They sell amazing coffee beans in bulk, but there's no seating or barista service. What makes it special: * The staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable * Quality coffee beans that are worth the trip * Perfect if you're stocking up for home brewing Just remember: This is a warehouse operation, not a café. Order online if you can, or swing by to pick up beans. The team there is super welcoming and passionate about their craft - they'll totally hook you up with recommendations. Bottom line: Stellar coffee company with genuine people who know their stuff. Just manage expectations and you'll leave happy with some seriously good beans.

My mother-in-law ordered the South Loop Double Burger, and I got the Chicken Parm Panouzzo. Both sandwiches were huge and could easily be shared if you wanted to. I put a quick stop to that, though, when her fork and knife came back for another bite of my sandwich. I had to say, "No, no!" It was just that delicious. The restaurant has a great neighborhood feel, the portions are generous, and the food is packed with flavor. Watching all of the pizzas coming out of the kitchen made me realize why they do such a busy takeout pizza business. I can't wait to order one to go. If you've been putting off trying Carmella's like I did, don't wait as long. Great job, Carmella's

They also bring the coffee right to your table which I think is very nice. I will definitely keep coming back here.

Great variety of seating including a bar area, table nook - even a separate conference room. I love me a seasonal latte and went with the maple cinnamon - great flavor. Didn't seem to have larger sizes for dining in (I avoid to-go cups whenever possible) so I went smaller. Decent fresh pastry selection from a local bakery and they've got burritos on their regular menu. Overall a lovely coffee space with areas to work or hang out and easy to get to with plenty of parking - even outdoor space and a drive thru! Love their vision and the fact they help get youth jobs and build up useful skills. My only markdowns are it doesn't have any section that gives off that cozy vibe, which I really value and would make me want to come back more often and they don't have baby changing tables in either bathroom, which is always a big bummer.
