    Caramel Latte
    Anthony D.

    Pretty solid coffee and a very clean atmosphere. We tried: - Pan de Bono - Banana Bread Donut - Latte w/Cielito foam - Caramel Latte Overall, all delicious. Fantastic donut, the pan de bono was interesting, and the coffee was tasty. The Cielito foam is just vanilla foam btw.

    Wow. Just wow. This is definitely in my top 5 list of coffee shops in Chicago. Located in Lakeview, I stopped by to grab a coffee and head towards another appointment. Service was great - barista was welcoming and very kind as I was trying to figure out what I wanted (first timer here). The space is clean, well laid out, and love the esthetic. There's also seating outside. I got the iced lavender oatmilk latte. Seriously one of the best coffees I've had. They also have delicious looking bakery items, but I was in a hurry so I didn't get anything. However, when I'm back, I'll plan to stick around, maybe do some work on my computer, and get a baked good. Thanks for an awesome experience.

    Pretty good! Kind of has a sterile atmosphere on the inside but they have some cute outdoor seating. Not itching to go back but would go if I was in the area again and felt like coffee!

    Such a cute coffee shop! Super clean, and very friendly staff. Wish I could've stayed longer to chat with them about the cafe and some of its background. My iced caramel latte was delicious! Really strong coffee flavor with nutty undertones. I also got a plain glazed donut which was just okay. Overall, definitely hope to come back soon and try something new or grab some beans!

    Birthday Cake Donut

    The vanilla latte was so smooth and the vanilla flavor was perfect, not artificial like a lot of places. The cielito cold foam is vanilla flavored as well and a great addition. They have a case of pastries, all of which look yummy, so far I can confirm the birthday cake donut is tasty!

    Incredible service, spacious and clean interior and pretty tasty coffee! I always ask for my lattes half sweet since most places tend to overdue it with syrups but I watched the manager watch the barista make it to ensure it was made to my liking which was really nice. It was delicious and I appreciated them warming up the bread for me too. Will definitely come back!

    Clean lines, beautiful decor!

    Arrived on a Saturday morning! There was a line, but the wait wasn't too long. I was happy to see a lot of customers enjoying this brand new coffee shop! The coffee and pastries are really good. The space is beautiful and the cashier Jaiden is super friendly and accommodating!

    nice looking facility and excellent service but unfortunately the coffee and pastries are mediocre at best and ridiculously expensive.

    Fun spot to grab coffee with a friend or date!! The decor is so cute, love the gold and green and…read moretile theme they got going on. They really went all out!! There's a fair amount of seating considering the size of the place. Wasn't able to get a spot today unfortunately, but we did go at a busy time on a Sunday morning. I got the honey and lavender specialty latte with soy milk. I get mixed feelings about lavender - sometimes it tastes pretty soapy to me. I thought this was delicious! I'd definitely order again and recommend it. Overall, definitely recommend this spot especially if you're able to get a couch or table to enjoy the space!

    I went here with a friend the other day and we ended up spending a good deal of the afternoon just…read morerelaxing and catching up. Even though we were seated at a regular table, the place had a comfortable vibe and it was easy to settle into. The counter women were efficient, nice, and filled our orders promptly. They did give my friend the wrong size coffee at first, but corrected it quickly and without any problem. One thing I didn't love: my cappuccino was served in a Styrofoam cup while we were staying there. If you're drinking in, it really should come on a ceramic cup and saucer. Save the Styrofoam for takeout! The best part was that we stayed for a couple of hours and no one hovered over us, or made us feel like we had to leave. As for the coffee itself, it was just okay. Not bad, but not memorable either. That's a shame too, because the space is so comfy. Still, there are plenty of other coffee spots on the North Side - and this just gives me a reason to explore others in the neighborhood.

    This is my absolute most favorite bakery. So this is my ode to the bakery and Dom, who is a gem of…read morean employee there. I've been a customer of almost 10 years and have been obsessed since they first opened their doors at a different location. I literally live an hour away without traffic and even longer with traffic, but I make sure to stop by or send someone else to get it for me at least once a month or more. I love the amazing cakes that are so delicious and unique but on top of that, it is Asian owned, LGBTQ supporting, etc. A lot has changed since their little storefront with no seating. The bakery is now a full on cafe and I'm so happy to see how much they've grown and how successful they are. And while it is glorious, I will say I miss the sweet neighborhood charm and great customer service it used to have. Getting in touch with the bakery through phone or text can be tough and to be honest, sometimes one of the people working there is kind of...very mean. It had me questioning if I should keep coming back. I just love this bakery so much though and being raised by parents that had a small food business, I can't help but want to support. I had a particularly difficult last minute request for the bakery a few weeks ago and I was reminded why this place is so great. It had been YEARS since I made this specific request, which was an order for a slice of cake for every flavor and a cupcake for every flavor. This is a BIG and time consuming request, especially if it's last minute. Unfortunately I come to the city whenever the traffic isn't atrocious, so it's always last minute. Dom absolutely pulled through though. Even though there were other employees there (I saw two others but one disappeared and then another male was kind of walking around the cafe and such), Dom took this giant request and fulfilled it himself. The other gentleman (not the mean person previously mentioned) was actually who I made the request to, but he told Dom to do it. I was kind of confused why they didn't do it together but idk, maybe the other guy isn't allowed to handle food? Who knows. Regardless, this request obviously took a long time and the line was getting longer; people were getting a little restless but Dom stayed calm but was swift. I swear he was moving faster than most people in the industry could with a cake knife like that. He was not impatient or rude to me at all. He was just there to do his job as fast and well as possible. It's so rare to see that type of work ethic. He is also so obviously proud of the bakery and the food they serve which makes you feel good about being a patron there. So although I continue to have an unpleasant experience with one particular employee there, Dom keeps my love for this bakery alive. He reminds me of what this bakery was like when they first opened their doors. I hope Dom is cherished there and I bet he is considering his work ethic. I will continue to support this bakery and I recommend everyone else to support as well. It may not be that small little shop anymore but Dom is a reminder of the heart of the place.

For my graduation cake, I chose the tres leches and it was so creamy, moist, and delicious. I basically ate half of the cake by myself lol. This most recent time, I needed a snack and wanted something sweet. Everything here looks amazing and I'm sure tastes amazing too, so it's hard to choose. I chose to get the berry chantilly cake slice since it was a hot day, and it was the perfect refreshing treat! It was soooo good.
