Cool industrial style exterior
Tanya R.

The building stands out and is easily recognizable by its bright brick industrial facade. Located right next to Chicago Elite Fitness, Caffe Umbria was just what we needed after an intense workout (what other monster likes to drink hot coffee on a warm Chicago summer day?!). You can also just follow the delicious scent of their roasted coffee wafting through the air. I ordered a latte with almond milk and my partner ordered an Americano, also with almond milk. Our orders were up quickly and the presentation was delightful--served nice and hot in coffee mugs. Whether you choose to sit inside or outside (perfect for people watching), there's plenty of seating to sit back and savor their delicious coffee.

Drove by here several times but haven't stopped in, the place looks massive and cool from the outside. My husband and I strolled over on a Sunday morning to check it out and the place was pleasantly buzzing. While waiting to place our order I scoped out the pastry / treats selection and was tempted by the glazed banana bread. We ordered a drip coffee and iced dirty chai. Both drinks came out quickly and with a chocolate square surprise! The banana bread paired wonderfully with the chai and was actually quite filling for the size. Can't wait to come back, think this is now our top neighborhood coffee shop!

Soy latte

Excellent coffee! Bold and flavorful! The barista did a fabulous job making my latte. Oftentimes at cafes you find just foamy bubbles but here they know how to steam and blend plant based milks as well as create latte art. It has an industrial decor but you can get cozy in their seating area. I can't wait to go back!

Great customer service. Ordered a cherry danish. It was great. They were patient and explained what everything was to us out-of-towners as we were indecisive. They offered to heat up my danish and when they brought it to me, they asked if i wanted a plate also. Visiting from out of state. Would come back. If we lived here, we would come daily. They also grind and package their own coffee here! And you can watch them do it

Really cool spot in a big warehouse type of building in Logan square! I loved that they have machinery that makes the coffee here at this location. This spot also offers plenty of work space for people who want to bring in their laptop. The coffee menu is straight forward and there's options for snacks and food. I had a simple iced coffee with sugar free vanilla and it was great. You can also scoop your own bag of coffee beans and take it for home as well. Cool spot with great drinks overall!

Cold brew with San pelligrino and almond syrup
Ali B.

My sister went here today and got me a coffee to go! I just asked her to get me any kind of sun seasonal cold brew drink or just a plain cold brew! They had a cherry San pellegrino almond cold brew, but they said they were out of cherry so they made it with lemon instead. Which was great because I love lemon! It was super refreshing but I wished that it had a little less of the sparkling water in it. It was really good though and I would get a coffee from here again next time I'm in town!

Menu

A pretty cool location with plenty of seating, both inside and outside. They also roast their coffee here as half of the space is allocated to the machinery. It has this interesting fishbowl area with outlets then seating around it. The staff was friendly and helped explain some of their specialty drinks, but I ended up going with the Caffè Latte iced which was good.

Exterior
Mike L.

Cafe Umbria is serious about their coffee! Great interior space with plenty of seating. They have a section dedicated to their coffee beans which is really awesome. Friendly staff with very good lattes! Pro Tip: when you receive your coffee they also give you a cafe Umbria chocolate. Nice touch!

Cappuccino Al Cacao
Jose C.

Came here for a quick cup of coffee. The building is huge and very spacious inside. The staff was very friendly and it didn't take long to get our coffee. My wife ordered their Cappuccino Al Cacao and I ordered their Caffe Marocchino. Both were pretty good. It tasted very similar to a mocha but a little bit stronger. Wouldn't hesitate returning.

niccoiola freddo; cherry danish
Mona T.

Overall Thoughts: I liked the vibes of this spot-- very industrial, yet comfortable. The coffee menu is expansive and a bit intimidating at first, but you can't really go wrong and nothing is too expensive. I ordered a Niccoiola Freddo, which I found pretty tasty, frothy, and had a nice balance of sweetness. I also tried a cherry danish, which I thought was just okay-- not as good as I was hoping. -- Price (relative to peers): 4.3/5 Drinks/Food: 4.3/5 Ambience: 4.7/5 Service: 4.7/5 Overall Value: 4.3/5

honey oat milk latte
Nazia C.

I've driven by here many times and didn't even know it was a coffee shop! It's pretty cool inside, lots of bold colors and industrial ish design. There's free street parking, free wifi, and a free piece of chocolate with your drink. I had the honey oat milk latte which came out very quickly and was brought to me at the table. I loved the little glass cube with lots of seating which has outlets all along the floor! Also neat to see their coffee bean machines.

Inside
Amanda C.

Had a great takeout experience! Staff was kind and friendly when I asked them to explain the pastries in the window. Had a couple customers coming in and out on a Wednesday morning before work. Cool interior where you can see coffee beans being processed. Decent amount of seating indoors, a few outside. I ordered brewed coffee and it tasted fine, as expected. The almond croissant was MASSIVE. It had beautiful layers and an ample amount of almond paste. I just wish there wasn't so much powdered sugar on top. Great coffee shop in the neighborhood and would return!

Love this coffee spot! The interior is very spacious and the coffee is amazing - every single time. The chocolate on top makes it even more special.

Great local coffee - staff super friendly! There's a nice deal on Fridays where if you buy a bag of coffee beans, you get a drink for free.

I must not have had real Columbian coffee before today. I had a latte at Cal's on Division St…read more it was absolutely delicious. I chose an 8 oz drink, because caffeine and I do not always get along. When I saw the "courtesy cup" size, I thought, "That can't be 8 oz." But, it was, and the cups were on the top of the glass case to show how large they were. It was the right size drink for me. The "courtesy cup" size reminded me of the days in Gahanna, Ohio, whenthere was some kind of privat battle between little BBF fast food place and big McDonald's. I liked BB, and I didn't understand why McDonald's won and BBF went away. They both had courtesy cups for children. Milkshakes were huge. My mother poured some of hers into two courtesy cups, one for my sister, and one for me. Keep your courtesy cup size, Cals. Julie

What a cool spot that's so close to my place! Well branded (interior, packaging, signage, swag for…read moresale...) The bonus here is there is a mini roaster and DJ area with two turntables and speakers. Can't wait to go back for some good vibing. My wife loved the ham and cheese danish. I couldn't get enough of that banana bread muffin with my hot mocha. The barista was pleasant and professional and seemed calm when the line started to grow. Luckily, her "sidekick" showed up soon after and helped to move things along, A dynamic duo. Pics to come soon.

There were no lines, and we were able to explore without the crowds. The place is huge, with multiple floors to explore. The first floor has merchandise and mobile order pickups, while the fourth floor features a bar serving coffee cocktails. Unfortunately, the rooftop terrace was undergoing maintenance during our visit, so we weren't able to enjoy it. They offer some really interesting coffee flights, unique drinks, and an impressive selection of pastries. There's also plenty of seating with great street views, making it a fun spot to relax and people-watch. Even if you're not a huge coffee drinker, it's a pretty cool experience. I'd definitely recommend going early to beat the crowds! L

With five floors to explore, stunning architecture, and an extensive selection of food, coffee, and cocktails, it's definitely a place worth visiting. However, my biggest recommendation is to GET THERE EARLY! We ended up waiting approximately 30-40 minutes just to order our food, and honestly, I didn't even feel like we were that far back in line! The third floor is where you'll find the majority of the food options, while the fourth floor features a bar with some really interesting cocktails. They also offer both physical and online menus, which is helpful when deciding what to order. Now, let's talk about the food because we tried quite a few things! The absolute star of the show was the cheddar, bacon, and egg biscuit on a croissant! This was SO incredibly good! The flavors worked perfectly together, and it was easily my favorite food item of the entire visit. I would come back for this alone! We also tried the salmon toast, which came with cream cheese, arugula, and salmon on sourdough bread. It was delicious and had a great combination of flavors. My only critique was that I wished the sourdough bread had been a little softer, but it was still enjoyable nonetheless. The Parmesan herb-crusted prosciutto sandwich was another winner! It was flavorful, and the croissant was buttery, light, and flaky, just as you'd hope. We also ordered the whiskey donut, which was a little smaller than I expected. However, it was still really good, and the frosting was definitely what made the donut stand out! After enjoying our food, we headed up to the fourth-floor bar to try some cocktails, and let me tell you, the drinks did NOT disappoint! We ordered the rum espresso martini, and it was SO freaking good! The combination of flavors was absolutely delicious. We also tried the pumpkin spice espresso martini, and it was everything I hoped it would be! Seriously, 10/10 recommend both cocktails! If you enjoy espresso martinis, the fourth-floor bar is absolutely worth checking out. One thing to keep in mind is that their lunch offerings become available after 11 a.m. We spotted a pepperoni focaccia that looked absolutely incredible, but unfortunately, we didn't get to try it this time. That's definitely on my list for my next visit! Overall, I really enjoyed the Starbucks Reserve Roastery. The building itself is gorgeous, the food was delicious, and the cocktails were phenomenal. It's much more than just grabbing a cup of coffee; it's an entire experience. Would I return? Absolutely! However, next time, I'd make it a point to arrive earlier in the morning to hopefully avoid such a long wait. My recommendation: Come early, explore all five floors, don't skip the cheddar bacon and egg croissant, and DEFINITELY make your way to the fourth-floor bar for an espresso martini! This is one Chicago attraction I would happily visit again!

Chicago sips…read more.. Sawada has been on our list though being on the West loop are it wasn't easy getting here in fact it was a great stroll after breakfast at Lou Mitchell's was a perfect stroll to walk it off. You know when you get there it starts to get crowded with various eateries and their huge sign of course so the entrance is a cool spot that gives it a downtown rustic vibe. Entrance you need walk up the stairs and thought it was cute to see the menu along the walls made it easy for me to scan and decide so that I'll be ready to order though unfortunately seating is very limited here as the lower level belongs to the bbq restaurant so finding a spot we had to get creative. I ordered the Hojicha Pumpkin Spiced Latte of course it's seasonal and sounds so irresistible and as I asked about one of the various stickers they have the staff gave me one of their logo which was free so nice and unexpected along with a choice of pastries (all made in house) when I told her I was visiting and chose a matcha glazed donut. The downtown vibe here is nice and fun along with the bbq place there was also a ramen in the basement with a singular sign is wild to see the various foodie places Chicago is known for and loved this part of town, my drink was nice and smooth with the Hojicha roasted and slightly nuttiness was nice with the hint of spice wasn't too sweet and was a great choice. Keep this on your list for the fun for something unique and cool as it's always a treat at Sawada. Thank you!

#chicago #flyforfriends #yelpfriends #gourmetcoffee…read more So the real question is what does one do in the great city of Chicago? Well, if you are with Matcha snobs and coffee snobs, you will end up visiting Sawada coffee Located on the second floor at 112 N. Green Street is Sawada coffee. It's together with another establishment. The tables inside the establishment do not belong to Sawada Coffee The trick to securing the seat belonging to the other establishment is to purchase something from that other establishment so that us Sawada coffee drinkers can peacefully sip on our drinks Don't ever think that coffee is just coffee, because it isn't you will learn this if you would to visit with Sawada Coffee if and when you are in the area in Chicago. A post script to this review is I just happen to be traveling with a bunch of people that are coffee and Matcha Kings and Queens I am a pawn still learning
