This is my first time in one of these cafes and I enjoyed experience. If you have a Capital One credit card your drinks are 50% off which is a really nice perk. I ordered a caramel apple latte that was really smooth. You can work here as well as they have workstations or you relax at the mini tables sprinkled throughout. If you have banking questions there are staff around to answer those as well. I will definitely be back

Had only been here once before, many years ago when they first opened. Having the free time to visit again was such a treat. Upon entering you notice the two ATMs where you can easily pay your credit card bill or borrow money against it. Pass those doors and enter the cafe. Such a beautiful space; wide and open with additional upstairs seating and private work or study spaces. There is even a banking room to speak with financial officers about building wealth. I took it all in. Today was a good day because they had give-aways. Who doesn't love FREE stuff. Seed packets and a reusable water bottle were my gifts. "Love em". Now, let's discuss my treats. An iced lavender vanilla latte; not too sweet, made with good coffee and a real slice of warmed banana nut bread. Both for the price of one cup of something at that other spot. Why, because everything is half price if you have a Capital One Credit Card. "What's in your wallet"?

Mondays are crazy busy with their drink promo but staff tries to keep things moving. The cafe is spacious with seating throughout the floor. Head upstairs for more seating and restrooms. It is loud and busy so consider that if you need a place to work. Maybe that's just on Mondays?

Wish the matcha lattes were much hotter, not sure why Capital One cafes never truly make them that hot. But definitely still enjoy the discounted drinks with the use of a Capital One credit card. There are two floors with more limited seating on the bottom but with a view of State Street.

I have been seeing these Capital One Cafes pop up in different cities and if you use a Cap One card for payment, you receive 50% off your handcrafted drink. Say less! My review is for the Chicago location and the interior and open and airy and very inviting. I ordered an oatmilk latte and it was well made and frothy and creamy. The cashier was very patient when dealing with a difficult customer and I applaud their professionalism.

All drinks are 50% off if paying with Discover or Capital One card! I don't think food is however. Lots of artisanal coffee options. Very spacious, well lit cafe with 2 levels to work or hang out in. There are 2 other Chicago locations but this one is the flagship.

Cute display

When you need a pick me up and it's discounted or free! Please and thank you! I'm a fan of free WiFi and the different drink promos they run regularly...which can be anywhere from range from discounts with your capital one card, daily specials, free Monday drink promos etc! They have a decent selection of drinks which include coffee based, matcha based, teas, and lemonades. I've most recently tried their signature Honey Lavender Latte, but have had many different ones and they are all pretty decent! Especially on free drink days bring your patience as staff are efficient and trying to serve the droves of office dwellers, students, and general tourists. There is free WiFi and a nice amount of seating available depending on the time of day. I enjoy during nicer weather the windows open up like a foldable garage door letting in some fresh air to the space! Also love that you do NOT need to bank with Capital One to partake in all the cafe has to offer.

Cookie

Great place to do work and even better if you have a Capital One card. I tried the Maple Cinnamon Latte which was a tad sweet, but still good. The Cookie was overpriced and a bit hard. Staff is very friendly and everything is clean

Was so excited to finally try a capital one cafe now that I have their credit cards. The 50% off drinks alone makes it totally worth it. I got the biggest size honey lavender latte for just $3 and it was actually really good!!! It was gone in 5 minutes haha. The space is super modern and clean. Lots of people were working or studying. Upstairs they got private study rooms, couches, desks, and charging ports too. If I lived in the city I'd definitely come here to work or hang out. Highly recommend checking it out! Will be back.

Awesome Concept! If you have a Capital One or Discover credit card everything is 50% off. I travel frequently and will be looking for Capital One Cafes in the future to satisfy my caffeine addiction and for lunch. The food and drink quality is at our better than their competitors. I came on Sunday January 4, 2026 around 10am.

Avocado toast
Taylor V.

Good coffee and good deal for the 50% off Avocado toast was good, with microgreens on it. Service was fairly fast

I will say, if I were to judge this cafe by the quality and price of the food alone, I'd rank it 4 - 4.5/5 stars, but the customer service was terrible. One of the reasons I opted for Capital One Cafe over a local shop was because I am a Capital One customer and customers get drinks half off. However, the cashier and baristas felt like they really didn't want to be there -- almost as if it was annoying that there were customers. I didn't mind the 5-10 minute wait, but I could tell that the workers were over it. As far as coffee goes, I had a hot caramel latte with whole milk. It was well sweetened (not too sweet, not too bitter) and just the right temperature. I also got a warmed chocolate croissant and it was ooey gooey goodness (heavy on the chocolate!) The space is fairly big with plenty of seating - tables for 2, stools at the window, and booth style seats on the first floor. It appeared as though there may have also been a 2nd floor, but I didn't venture up there

Love the Capital One stop for a quick ice coffee and pastry. The service was relatively quick and friendly. The bank / cafe is a nice place to grab a quick bite.

Terrible service. Half hour wait for 2 iced coffees and a muffin? Don't go! Also supports a corporation not a small business.

Located near the Merchandise Mart and overlooking the Chicago River, this location has floor to ceiling windows with amazing views in every direction. Considering the layout, I am sure this place is frequented those who work and/or live nearby. There are plenty of table/chair combos; the perfect setup for laptop and tablet work. I stopped through on Saturday morning and there was a number of people already setup with their respective devices. They also have music playing in the background (at a very acceptable volume level) which for me, just added to the vibe. The staff, were friendly and helpful. Add to that, they did an awesome job of managing the line as it never got too long. As for drinks and food, no complaints here. It's consistent with the Blue Bottle level of quality I have come to expect and appreciate. Overall, I highly recommend checking out this location.

These are some of the best, if not *THE* best donuts I've ever had. Chicago has some excellent…read moredonuts... Do-rite, Voodoo, Firecakes, even Stan's under some conditions; Doughnut Vault beats them all! Maybe it's because they were made an hour or two ago? Maybe they use better/fresher oil? I don't know, and frankly, it makes no difference to the smile on my face. The two donuts I had that day were their daily specials. IIRC, one was a Salted Caramel Old Fashioned, and the other was a Yeast Apple(something) filled donut. The Old Fashioned blew me away. The dough had a very light, but nonetheless present crispness from being fried. The dough itself was sweet, and the salted caramel coating was on point, with actual salt notes coming through. The apple-filled was similarly delicious, though I regret cutting this into pieces and enjoying it over three days, for this made it seem like there was not enough filling! Learn from my mistakes, and enjoy these things whole! More to love is that their prices are more than reasonable for the quality, and the service is friendly, knowledgeable, and fast! If there is one quibble that I have, it's that the donuts were just a touch sweeter than I would prefer. However, this is a matter of personal preference, since these are donuts for crying out loud! Final verdict: Best donuts ever! Go! Do!

We got there around 11 AM and unfortunately, a lot of flavors were already sold out. The interior…read moreis very small. You basically walk in and immediately see the donut counter, with room for maybe 4 customers max. Service was amazing! The guy greeted us as soon as we walked in and had such big energy. Before we looked at the menu he showed us the variety he had left. 9/10 service, definitely a fun way to start the day! This was actually my first time trying an old fashioned donut. The pistachio old fashioned was nothing too special. It tasted more like a dense cake, was slightly oily, but I did like how dense and filling it was. 6/10. Definitely want to come back earlier next time to try more of their flavors!

I wasn't particularly impressed by the selection, and the freshness of the donuts left something to be desired. The presentation also took away from the experience. Seeing donuts sitting exposed in boxes where customers can easily view them isn't particularly appealing and doesn't create the freshest visual impression. I tried the maple pecan glazed donut, which was overwhelmingly sweet. Even after just one bite, the intense sugar rush was immediate and overpowering, making it difficult to enjoy the other flavors. The vanilla donut was the better of the two--pleasantly doughy, though it still lacked the freshness I was hoping for. Overall, this was an average experience. The donuts were serviceable, but neither the selection, presentation, nor freshness gave me much reason to return.
