There is so much variety that you can't go wrong in picking one. I ordered a box of 6 pastries. The first one I ate was the guava and cream, oh my gosh the crispiness of the bread was amazing and the flavor even better. I also order the horchata ice coffee, which was good. The line was long but it moved quickly. The place and music felt very welcoming. I so recommend this place.

Customer service wasn't great. We felt rushed to decide on our orders. I would've ordered more had…read morethey simply not rushed us. $90 for 4 sandwiches and 4 pastries. The breakfast sandwiches were a bit cold because they didn't warm the bread.

Come to find out they've been going here for awhile since it's really close to his old apartment as well. He's a homeowner now in an adjacent neighborhood - please respect his privacy - and he still enjoys stopping by on the way back from Scott's Tots. The coffee was great - as were the empanadas! Typically I do not love savory breakfast but when it comes to empanadas Ima dog it down every time no complaints. We got: -meat empanada (me) -ham and cheese morning bun (my brother's fave) And for to drink: -Chicago fog -Lake Shore Chaga It was delicious - perfect complement to the crisp Chicago air. Excellent service as well! Truthfully, what really warmed me to this place is that my brother's dog Wibby used to love coming to get pets and a pup cup from the window. She's been gone about 4 months now so it's always special to see little reminders of her around the neighborhood. Xoxoxo

Sipping Turtle Cafe was truly just a mediocre experience. I visited the coffee shop around 10 am on…read morea Thursday with a friend and there were only 3 other customers inside. The shop is sparsely decorated but seems to be a real staple in the community, which felt special to visit as an outsider. My friend and I both ordered egg and goat cheese bagel sandwiches. I ordered an iced lavender matcha and my friend ordered a cappuccino. The sandwiches were made with boiled eggs, which felt extremely odd. The egg type was not clarified on the menu, but I feel like for a breakfast sandwich to include a boiled egg instead of a traditional fried or scrambled egg, that should be disclosed to customers with some sort of expectations. My friend said the cappuccino was "just like every other cappuccino I've ever had." The lavender matcha really just tasted like a regular matcha. It was good but not much lavender flavor! Our food also took a bit to come out, despite the coffee shop being empty (only one other person already dining when we came in) and what we ordered. It looked like there were only two workers. I personally wouldn't visit Sipping Turtle Cafe again, unfortunately. There are a lot of other great options around that satisfy me more.

I love the colorful fun decor and cozy vibes. I ordered a brown sugar cinnamon latte iced with oat milk. Was ready fast!

My sister got a strawberry matcha which was nice and creamy, and everyone else got tea as well and enjoyed it! The people working were super nice!! Super cute spot and I'm so glad I got to try it!

The entire café is horror-themed, which makes it the perfect spot to kick off the first day of fall and spooky season. The team was so kind and welcoming -- they really took care of me and helped me pick out the best drink for my vibe. I went with the Fire Starter latte with macadamia milk, and it was amazing. The smooth espresso paired with just a hint of chili took the flavor to another level -- cozy, bold, and just the right amount of heat. If you're looking for killer coffee, spooky vibes, and wonderful service this fall as Halloween creeps closer, you NEED to check this place out.

However, I find that the prices are similar to other places around the other neighborhoods especially as you venture closer to the lake. It's also one of the few places in the near area. I hear Avondale is "up and coming". I'm starting to believe as I'm new to the area coming from Southport Corridor. I did like the outdoor seating which was peaceful on a Sunday morning. I got a sense that this place definitely has a community vibe and the customers in there appeared to be regulars. I will definitely return to Moonwalker Cafe when I'm in the area... I'm about 2 miles down the road.

After seeing plenty of Milli by Metric social media buzz...we knew this one was going to pass the vibe test! Street parking in the neighborhood nearby! This space is everything I adore...mood lighting, exposed brick, community seating, and modern design touches. This is the perfect spot to grab a coffee and get some serious work done. The staff was friendly and welcoming! We ordered a Cortado and their season special, the Strawberry Thyme Latte. The Cortado had lovely flavor from the espresso and just enough creamy milk. The Strawberry Thyme Latte was a subtly fruity, with just a hint of herbaceousness that really elevated the drink. Top notch spot and very glad we chose this one!

3.5 stars. Hard to give this rating but here are the issues…read more It's way too expensive. $5 for an espresso. $4.5 for a small drip coffee. Specialty drinks in the $8.5 and up range. Pastry's, that while are delicious, are also really more expensive than most other coffee spots and are not that big. Thy are really slow. If you walk in and there is a line that stretches to the door, which is maybe 10 to 15 people, expect to wait 15 to 20 minutes to o place your order and then another 5 to 10 minutes to get your food and drinks (unless it's a drip). I've walked in an walked out before because of that line. Seating and parking. Parking is obviously out of their control trial, but there is super limited parking in the area and it's really hard to find a spot. Your best bet is walking or riding there. As for the seating, it seems like there is plenty of seating but people camp out there with computers for long time and even at random times it's been really tough to find a spot. Lastly, their bags of coffee are really expensive. I know they consider themselves top of their market, but unless you are an occasional coffee drinker or just have that much money to burn, you can't drink their coffee daily. They sell 2 pound bag for $49. The place is stunning though. I hope their take out window opens eventually and maybe they can light a fire under their staffs ass to speed up. Something helpful also might be to put the menu by the door and maybe out the pastry display in the middle section so by the time the people get to the counter they know what they are ordering. Good luck to this business. There is t a ton over there, but these issues are going to prevent me from going regularly.

Everything was very good but I especially loved the flautas with the consome. It was absolutely delicious and very unique, I drank the leftover consome because it was that good . Just poor everything in one big bowl . The flautas keep their crisp even when swimming in the broth . I liked the shredded Munster cheese on the jibarito and loved the green sauce . Sooo good!! The restaurant is byob and we brought mixes for bloody Mary's and some beers. It was nice to enjoy the meal and not feel rushed . I really enjoyed the experience, good music playing and kind service . Definitely recommend

I had such an amazing experience at Omarcitos today…read more I stumbled across an IG reel of this food spot, and I immediately knew I had to check them out. The cafe has such an interesting set up. You order from what appears to be a food truck, and there is an outdoor (open concept) and indoor seating. We ordered the steak sandwich and ropa vieja plate. The steak sandwich was DELICIOUS. The bread was crispy, and the meat was flavorful and juicy. The sandwich also paired so well with their garlic side sauces. The Ropa vieja was also so insanely yummy. The beef was so juicy and savory. The garlic rice was also so yummy. I'm not a huge fan of plantains, but the plantains were actually pretty decent! Overall, I had an excellent experience at Omarcitos. I cannot wait to come back once it gets warmer!!
