A beautiful space with lovely people and A PARKING LOT?! Unbelievable. Truly a highlight of our trip.
The workers could work on their welcoming skills. It's not a big coffee shop and it gets a little busy but there's 3 people in the front working. Nitzi, I think that was her name - took my order and I think she was taken aback when I asked her for her name. I always like to know so I can say thank you afterwards with their name. I ordered and iced coffee with a little coconut syrup but they added coconut milk instead which is fine - It's a very good coffee and I'll be back. Hopefully they have improved on their welcoming skills. Btw- the coffee shop has a beautiful chapel connected to it. Go visit it and give thanks!
Breve Vanilla Latte : 3 of 5 Coffee was rather weak tasting for my liking. Service was fast and the ambiance is probably the most unique out of a coffee shop. I think this is mainly because it's located/connected to a Catholic church. Very rustic and peaceful vibes. The people here are the best part. Very nice and talkative. I even got to help fix the lights Give this place a shot for sure though.
Wonderful coffee shop located along the side of St Paul's Catholic Church. Community vibes with great service. Small menu hitting all the highlights at this local spot Pro Tip: entrance located along side of the building. If you didn't know you could walk right by!!
Most easily Missed Coffee spot in the city , but you can't beat the location, inside a Church dating back to 1876, if you wander around and go through one of the doors inside the cafe, you'll see a beautiful area with amazing stain glass , The staff is so friendly and quick to strike up conversation, and their signature drinks are extremely creative ,They also boast some serious tea creations , A must stop for any coffee house enthusiast!
After seeing this place in so many articles and videos, we had to stop by for ourselves. It's tucked away in the church basement, and such a cute spot to grab a coffee, other beverage, or sit and study or meet someone up in the neighborhood. It's very welcoming and I love that it's run by students. Such a creative way to use the space. The prices are super reasonable. To my understanding, there is only one size. The size was very filling and way cheaper than most other coffee shops. But even if it was pricier, I wouldn't mind paying more for this place. The coffees we tried were great, they also have seasonal specials. Overall, it's a great atmosphere to come enjoy in the heart of Pilsen. I hope to see it continue to thrive!
Glad I finally got to try this place since they have been on my list for a minute. I ordered the polar bear latte and the banana bread latte. Both were just okay. The flavor on the banana bread latte didn't really come through and the feedback my significant other gave for the polar bear latte was "it just takes like espresso and cold foam". I agreed. I do appreciate that the coffee is strong but absolutely no flavors. The barista was not friendly and looked like he didn't want to be so the encounter was a bit awkward and it took a lot of the excitement out of the experience.
Service was nice and friendly! My friend and I decided to check this place out after work and tried their Valentines menu. We got Red Velvet and Berries N' Cream. I recommend getting the Berries N' Cream it tastes like a pink starburst and we enjoyed the little cookie on top. Also this is located in the basement of the church. Entrance is by the parking lot.
Good coffee and variety of drinks both hot and cold. Friendly and genuine staff. Great relaxing place to read and contemplate; access an adjoining chapel with wall-to-wall stained glass and illuminated iconography -- no better place to reflect and ponder for a minute or greater while.
Holy mackerel, this place is ADORABLE! This very quaint and unassuming coffee shop in the basement of the historic St. Paul's in Pilsen has such a cozy atmosphere. There's signs all around with community events that just warmed my heart. Service was very good, and you definitely get a good bang for your buck here. I'll be back!
Stopped by Holy Grounds in Pilsen this morning and grabbed a Maple Pancake Latte and an Iced Polar Bear Latte--total came to about $8. The Maple Pancake Latte was like a hug in a cup: sweet maple syrup, cozy cinnamon, and a buttery finish that made me feel like I was enjoying breakfast in a log cabin. The Iced Polar Bear Latte was a cool, creamy treat with a nice vanilla kick--perfect for sipping while I people-watched on their outdoor patio. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the vibe inside was warm and inviting. Already planning my next visit to try their other seasonal drinks.
A fun find in the neighborhood. Solid coffee, friendly service, tables to study in the coffee shop and pews in the small chapel next door.
Located in the basement of the rectory building. Lots of parking & seating are available on days that are not Sunday. Has a great selection of drinks for coffee & non-coffee drinkers. The horchata latte was not as sweet as I hoped it would be. Would go back to try other items on their menu. The service was great and very friendly.
What a cute gem! I'm new to town and my daughter is visiting. This spot was on my list and it just happened to be her AirBnb! Perfect! It's a beautiful place, the chapel is gorgeous! The barista was so kind and friendly and welcomed us! I got the Pumpkin Spice Chai which was perfection! My daughter had the Toasted Almond which was delicious too! Have to bring my Husband here! read more

Came here on a Monday and worked for about an hour. I was able to find a seat no problem, the WiFi worked well and seating was comfortable. I had the dulce de leche latte with oat milk, and it was so good. I really enjoyed it and it had the right amount of espresso strength. The barista was nice and friendly. The only thing I would say was missing was food or fresh pastries. I was hungry and hoping to get a scone or something with my drink and all they offered were muffins that were prepackaged. I would return when in the Pilsen area. read more

My daughter states this is the best coffee in Chicago. She had the Horchata Iced Coffee and my other daughter had the Iced Pilar. Both were excellent. I had the Fire Chai Latte which was nice with a little spice and my wife had the Vanilla Chai Latte which was a bit sweeter. The place is cozy with a little bit of seating. The staff were pleasant. read more
Such a cute little shop in the basement of St Paul's. Everyone is so nice and you feel like you're part of the community. My horchata iced coffee was delicious and I appreciate that such a small shop still had plenty of non-dairy milk options. read more

I went here today around 11 and there was little to no traffic in the store. Ordered a Dulce de leche latte and the barista made it right away. The perfect coffee shop in the church that's quiet and has good coffee. Would definitely go back. read more

Came across this cute coffee shop within St. Pauls Catholic Church and stopped by to check out their spring specials! Pictured is the Chocolate Covered Strawberry Iced Coffee. The entire drink was amazing, but the strawberry cold foam on top was the best part! Its a small cafe, but super cute inside, and the lady making our drinks was incredibly nice. Ill definitely be back to try some of their other drinks. Theres a parking lot, so parking is easy, but just note they dont offer much food if you're hoping for that with your latte. read more

I almost finished my drink without taking a picture of its beauty hahaha So I was craving some real good coffee but I was tired of the same old Starbies and DD. Turned to Yelp and typed in "coffee" and got shown this little spot in Pilsen. What a treat! I ordered a Dulce de Leche Iced Latte and it was exactly what I was looking for. The staff seems really lovely and make their drinks amazing adding the perfect amount of everything Definitely going to start coming here more. And you should too! **UPDATE** Went again today and I'm pleased to say. It was a hit! Put someone else on to my drink as well. Def made with love. Thank you Holy Grounds read more
