Amazing service. Came in and enjoyed the environment and coffee. I will definitely come back and do work at this place. Loved the music and sound level. Great place to do work and grab a cold brew read more

Warm spot (with a few outside tables on a side street for spring/summer) with friendly service and a great drink menu. The marshmallow latte is served with a bruleed homemade marshmallow on top! Sandwich highlight is the salami and pickle panini with hot giardinera. Big enough to share. Don't forget to appreciatethe hand-painted wall mural and menu! read more

Horrible experience. They don't take cash. POS was down that day so they could not take credit cards. I had a 50$ order and they turned me away because they would not take cash. last time I checked cash was a legal tender in America. They turned away customers willing to pay. read more

I passed by this place many times. I like to drink coffee and one day I decided that I will give a try. I ordered Mochiato, Marshmallow Latte and Chocolate croissant. I really liked their Marshmallow Latte. It was really good and smooth. It's really a nice place to chill out and get some good coffee. Nice decoration inside and good service. read more

See all

I spend an excessive amount of time looking for high-quality coffee, and Chicago has many excellent sources. Coffee Joint is one of the very best in the city. They carefully brew the basic drip and the specialty drinks. Great service too. read more

I have been here a few times to get coffee before I pick up my son from school. Always friendly service and tasty beverages. Today was the first time I got cold brew and I don't know if it's always the same, but this may be the best cup of cold brew I've ever had. Great little neighborhood spot, thanks for the consistently great service and product. read more

Yummy! loved the coffee it was amazing. The hot chocolate was life changing. I was able to be productive in a customer friendly environment. read more

amazing food, drink, and service! highly recommend the mozzarella and basil sandwich!

Truly, a place that crafts coffee better than anyone else on the North Side, Coffee Joint is exactly the low-profile, strong-execution that you would expect in its neighborhood. Hipster Factor: LOW (As an aside, Real Chicagoans are winning, btw, against the Hipster Problem.) Overall, that "neighborhood factor" permeates into this subtle corner coffee shop because of the friendly yet professional attitude indicative of the area. For the Actual COFFEE, yes, they serve a lot of the Italian & French staples. However, the surpass any competition in the area with their cleaner, brighter shop. The shop also correctly prepares Drip Coffee and Tea by not burning the water before pouring. This usually indicates a staff cognizant of the water's quality and of the fact that frequent calibration of the heat elements of the machines ensures continued quality. For the food, they keep it simple with a smattering of awesome sandwiches that are made-to-order. Veggie/Vegetarian options appear to be available. (But, as always, what a rough existence, right?) For AMBIANCE, the place is original hardwood floor with recycled wood tables and counters at middle height (i.e., not high-tops but not low tables). The chairs appear to be refurbished "shop" chairs that are just as comfortable for tall people as shorter people. (I believe this was a goal--being a taller guy, I like this seating because it includes all heights while making me comfortable.) A charming patio with outdoor furniture and plenty of shade features during the warmer months. For STAFF & SERVICE, there is not a friendlier and more-knowledgeable staff in the City. They know their craft, and they "do basic things well." This is huge for me, in a world where everyone keeps trying to reinvent the wheel. I am a weekly patron and enjoy this place for meetings, work, or just to relax. It's a highly adaptable but balanced environment. read more

I hovered between 3/4 stars but I'll give you a four bc I don't want to hurt your score. Nice spot with a lot of natural light, more upscale options and prices. Kind of what you would imagine the google cafeteria looks like in terms of their fridge. I want to give you three stars bc of this seating that I will call anti-ergonomic. Aka the stools are hella uncomfortable. Sure they look sleek but are y'all making them uncomfy so we won't stay? I get it you're trying to turn tables, but at least have the short tables on the floor have a few comfortable seating options. Even the shorties are weird stools. And the foot bar placement just doesn't make sense with the way the body hangs. Bummer. Some people may not care about this but as a remote worker- and there are tons of us now- this is really important! read more

I stopped here at Coffee Joint for the Yelp event to grab a cup of joe while at work at was able to meet the staff and chat with Anna. I really like the place and atmosphere. They serve Metropolis coffee which is strong like I prefer and tastes great. The sandwiches looked good , but will have to try next time. read more

just moved around the corner and thought it would be great to have a small business local coffee shop to pop into. despite the drink i got tasting good, i definitley didn't get the friendly barista everyone raved about tho which turned me off and left me with a disappointed experience. read more

I had an iced latte, my boyfriend had a coffee. Both were delicious. Small but interesting menu, looking forward to coming back. Service was friendly and efficient. read more

The ambiance of Coffee Joint is very relaxing and welcoming. I have been here a few times now and I enjoy the high stools and coffee bar. I also enjoy supporting a local business that truly cares about their customer's experience. This will definitely be a common spot that I get my coffee at from now on. read more

This is an adorable little cafe that I just discovered today dealing with stupid traffic. Brand new and beautiful. Love the vibe and the decor. The staff was nice and I got a cold brew. I was disappointed to see Metropolis as I'm not a fan of their coffee but that's just my opinion. There's plenty of people who do love it and this is the place to stop in! Def will be coming back but for tea instead :) read more

I just had a simple latte and it was perfectly balanced and very well made. I was very impressed, I'll definitely come back and 10/10 would recommend read more

Excited to see it finally open. I like the ceramic tile walls and reclaimed wood look. I was hungry and saw that they had sandwiches. I ordered the salami and pickle spicy one. The sandwich was good but I expected a lot more for $12. Bag of Chips? Cookie? I don't know. The credit card system wasn't working so I had to manually input all my info. The barista was that busy but was very brief with me and didn't really engage the was you would expect for a newer place looking to create repeat customers. I hope you use the feedback to strengthen your business and become another great neighborhood hang out. read more

Good coffee. Great location. The shop is clean and the people are nice. I just wish the wifi was better. They have a guest network but it had two bars and only stayed connected for a minute or two before it would disconnect altogether. Other than the wifi, good coffee shop! read more

Two capucchinos almost 9 dollars. Way to to over priced for metropolitan coffee. Ambience is nice, but coffee was ok

Love this place! The space is small so if you're coming here to work, you may have trouble finding table space. The coffee is great and the prices are fair. Good pastries as well. The baristas are all very friendly and helpful in describing the drinks to you. The nice unique thing about this place is that they also offer sandwiches! read more

Like the Coffee, food is great , atmosphere is amazing. My favorite is hot Ham and Swiss sandwich. Marshmallow Latte with home made marshmallows is sooooo delicious !!!!! read more

Ordered breakfast sandwiches thru uber eats, and they were fantastic. The Italian sausage one was my favorite. The pickles they use are amazing and the english muffin is lot fluffier and not so crumbly as usual muffins bought at the store. Dark roast coffee i ordered along with tasted like a very fresh brew, considered that delivery took 15 min once picked up from cafe read more

Delicious coffee and English muffin sandwich! It's my first time there, but I'm definitely will be back again when I'm in the area!

Just tried the new place in town- delicious! The owner and staff are super friendly. Cannot wait to go back!

This is my new spot to study and grab coffee. Their drinks are great and reasonably priced. I really love it because they offer glasses and mugs if your drink is "for here"-- I appreciate a place that isn't creating waste for no reason. The baristas are really nice and the atmosphere is very conducive to studying. read more

Nice corner location with windows - good place to watch the world go by- but weak coffee and kind of boring in there

I had the marshmallow latte. It was yummy with the toasted marshmallows on top. The shop itself is very cute and minimalistic. I also had a croissant. It was good too. Nothing to write home about but I wouldn't be opposed to returning. read more

Great new coffee spot in Roscoe Village/North Center. Finally a good boutique coffee joint within walking distance instead of Starbucks. Great pastries sourced from an Uptown bakery and Metropolis coffee. Great vibe and a welcomed new business in the area. This one should have staying power along Irving Park Road. read more

I've only been in once but the barista was so nice and answered all my questions. Definitely will make it back for more lattes in the future. read more

So happy to have a new local coffee shop. Awesome Staff, awesome coffee, great vibe. Try the marshmallow latte!!

Amazing new place! Great coffee, great music, great vibe, free WiFi as well if you wanna go and study or get work done!

this nice little coffee shop in North Center is a good addition to the neighborhood. their coffee is from Metropolis and i like that they use only single origin beans for drip coffee.Barista was very knowledgeable and explained difference between coffee regions, blends and espresso. Only thing i wish it would have more seating available. read more

This place is fantastic. Noah pours delicious coffee and espresso drinks in the morning. Each cup is high quality and he moves quickly to keep up with demand... It's hard to find quality and expediency in the same coffee shop. Coffee Joint nailed it. read more

Whoever is working here today is extremely rude! We were on a walk and the place looked cute. We were already hesitant to go in given the circumstances and a very unfriendly woman was working. She was short with any questions we had and clearly didn't want to answer any questions and had a total attitude. My husband said have a good day on our way out and she said "yeah." Too bad because I would return otherwise! read more

Delicious coffee and nice staff! Always a pleasant visit here to get some local beans

I love this place. Every time I walk in, I am always greeted with a smile! I typically order an iced caramel latte and it's just absolutely delicious. Their black coffee is great as well. The only thing I wish they offered are larger cups. Hopefully they will introduce larger cups soon! read more

Happened upon this coffee joint via Google maps and then Yelp. This is a few blocks closer to me than another coffee shop down the street. The ambience is pretty chill and it's great for working. Plenty of outlets and the bar seating in front of the shop has those bag hooks. They carry Metropolis coffee, which isn't too bad, but isn't mind blowing either. I got one of their cinnamon buns with the free coffee (from checking in), and that is pretty decent. The music in here isn't obnoxiously loud, so that's what contributes to its great work environment. Would give 5/5 if coffee selection was greater. As of now it's a great spot to get some work done. read more

I'm usually a Starbucks app pre order person, but today I had time to finally try this place out. I have to say that I'm really disappointed . The service was ok. Not super friendly but also not rude at all. I bought an Almond milk latte and it wasn't great. I didn't even finish it and it was $5.50ish . Bummer read more

What a great coffee shop in the neighborhood! Tasteful and cozy inside, calming setting, and one of the best lattes I've had in awhile. They also have cold brew which makes me ecstatic! read more
