This southside coffee shops offered a variety of drinks (caffeinated/ non-caffeinated option) but…read morethe best part in my option is their flights. Why would you not order a flight to try a variety of drinks all at once? We had the hibiscus lemonade and matcha flight, the mango con crema and banana con crema were the standouts. We went on a weekend and there was a long line but it moved pretty quickly. Limited seating space but there are also chairs and tables on the outside. Street parking available. They also offer brunch food items which we did not get to try. But overall cute shop with a variety of speciality drinks that I will definitely try in the future.

Stockyard Coffee House in Chicago, Illinois. Overall, I really liked it. The only small downside…read morewas that it felt a bit warm inside, probably because it was already a hot day outside. The staff--at least the person who helped me--didn't feel super welcoming. Not that they were rude, just not particularly warm either. I get it though, because even I get a little irritable when it's hot, so maybe that played a part. What I love the most is that it's Latina-owned, and that's something I truly admire. I always try to support Latino entrepreneurs when they're doing things right, and this place is definitely doing something creative. We ordered two flights--one with coffee and one with matcha. Each flight comes with four small samples, and they were all seasonal fall flavors, which I thought was such a fun and unique idea. It's cool because you get to try different drinks in little cups, almost like a tasting experience. The coffee flight (we got it iced) was amazing--the flavors were bold and had that strong coffee taste I personally love. The matcha flight was also fun, but I would have preferred a stronger matcha flavor in some of them. They also have plenty of milk options--we ordered ours with oat milk and it was delicious. On top of that, they have a pretty wide food menu with bagels, sandwiches, wraps, and more. We tried the tuna sandwich and it was really good, definitely worth recommending. The café has little chairs outside, the vibe inside is cozy, and I loved that they were playing Spanish music. That's something you don't usually find in most coffee shops here, and it gave the place extra personality. The only thing I'm still unsure about is the price. For two flights (coffee + matcha) and the sandwich, the total was around $55. Maybe that's a bit expensive--or maybe it's just the nature of ordering flights, since I had never tried that before. Either way, it was worth it for the experience and the flavors. In short, it's a cute, cozy, and creative spot that's definitely worth checking out--especially if you're into seasonal flavors, want to try something unique, and love supporting Latina-owned businesses in Chicago.

As a former teacher, I loved that! The coffee we wanted was out, dirty horchata but we completely understood, it's mid day and Saturday so the yummy stuff goes! We got a mocha and I forgot what hubby got but both were delicious! We sat in and enjoyed our coffee which was nice. The service was fantastic, everyone was kind and engaging which was very nice. Highly recommend and support local coffee shops!

I was originally drawn in by the ube latte and horchata latte, and they did not disappoint. The food is also delicious and always tastes fresh. The shop blends right into the community but still stands out when it comes to flavor. Easily a top 5 coffee shop for me. The inside is simple and cute, nothing overdone, just a nice place to enjoy your drink. My only downside is the staff. I have had a couple of really friendly experiences, but most of the time they seem pretty dry and not very inviting. Overall, still a great spot and one I keep coming back to.

I would definitely come back to try more things!

We've had a few things so far. The ricotta, tomato pesto Danish pastry - very very good. The first time we went (a month or two ago) it was everyone's favorite - nice texture and great balance of flavors. I got it again the second time and it wasn't as good. The pastry was not as light and flakey as I remember. There was a lot of ricotta and very little pesto. I was hoping there would be some consistency. I'll try the ham and cheese cornetto next time. We've also had the coffee cake, pistachio bomboloni, cinnamon roll, and turtle cheesecake. The coffee cake was a little dense and the pistachio bomboloni was dry. It was like a donut. I thought the filling would be more smooth and liquidy, but it was a chunk of dry dense cream. The cinnamon roll was very good, though the icing was a little sweet. You can get it without icing... but i think I'd rather get it with the icing and scrape some of it off (haha)! The cheesecake was very very good. Great consistency and not too sweet. Definitely a standout dish. I want to try the croissant and a few other things next time. The cheesecake is a must. I appreciate that they are reasonably priced, which makes coming back and trying a few more things feasible.

My wife enjoyed the decoration and style so much, that we added the bakery to our list of places to go on a date. It has all the details women enjoy, like soft elegant seating and looks great for photos. The Italian standards like cannolis and tiramisu hit the spot. I liked the ricotta take on cannolis. However, the stand out items to me were the savory pastries! The tomato and pesto one is almost like a margarita pizza. The potato one is also filled with excellent flavors, they could be a meal in themselves. The almond and pistachio croissant was very good. I enjoyed that nothing was too sweet. The staff was friendly and efficient and they're are clearly some talented bakers working here. If your commute takes you down Archer or I-55 this is a hidden gem and quick off ramp detour that feels like you're downtown without paying $50 for a parking garage. We will definitely be back!

The only downside was the limited seating. A lot of people were standing around chatting, which is fine, but I wish there were more spots to sit since it got pretty packed. The staff did their best to keep things moving, and service was quick despite the crowd. The ambiance is cute...a simple, slightly industrial coffee shop vibe.
