Really small spot, but really great coffee. The line can go out the door, but moves quickly. I normally get a cortado or espresso macchiato but their brewed coffee is actually really good too and far superior to SBUX. There's a limited selection of pastries as well as taps for cold brews. Friendly service and a great spot for some caffeine. read more

First time trying a La Colombe storefront! Wasn't a huge fan, the s'mores cold-brew was extra sweet but then got watered down very quickly. Small shop with a couple of tables inside and out. read more

La Colombe Coffee Workshop - Lattes - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Just not good coffee.. lattes are either extremely sweet or bitter if you do less flavoring, probably because it's not good espresso. I have no idea how they got the reputation of having good coffee! read more

LOVED THIS COFFEE. I got an iced vanilla late with almond and it did not disappoint! You can taste the quality. The service was nice and fast too! read more

Best coffee I've had in a long time! I ordered a Half Tan with the seasonal pumpkin spice latte. It tasted like a half cold brew/half iced latte, so it was the perfect amount of sweet and strong! There was a line out the door, but it moved very quickly. I wish I had a location nearby because it would be my go-to coffee spot! read more

They no longer have the cereal draft, but I loved my half tan which was cold brew with their signature draft. It was so good that I did not need to even add sugar. Highly recommend. read more

Small location good for getting a to go order. half tan with one pump of strawberry, tastes good - wish the strawberry could be a fresh puree instead of syrup read more

I was sooooo sad they didn't have a bigger inside space set up. We really wanted to sit and work somewhere but that's okay- this just isn't the place for that. They had limited options in my opinion- but some options nonetheless. I had a hot draft latter and it was delicious. I wasn't sure what to expect but noticing a full line outside the door in the middle of a Tuesday afternoon, told me enough. The music inside was carnival which was nice and enjoyable. I would def recommend and return! read more

The coffee here is always so good! The oat milk latte on draft is delicious. The coffees were pretty big so we were happy with the portions!

Stopped in to try the Strawberry Oat Draft, which was good. We also ordered a Half Draft, Almond Croissant, and Chocolate Chip Cookie. All of which were great. read more

Cute little shop and great coffee. I wouldn't necessarily go out of my way to visit here again (I did go out of my way to visit here this time), but would definitely stop in when passing by. Service wasn't the kindest, but efficient. Pretty small place, so not easy to find a table to chat away with friends, but a great place to grab a cup of good coffee. read more

Small location but room to stand up at the coffee bar and it's getting warmer out so I'm sure there will be space to sit outside! Friendly staff. I tried the strawberry oat matcha on draft and it was perfect, not too sweet with hints of strawberry. Good matcha to oat milk ratio as well. I will be back! They rotate their draft flavors. read more

Love La Colombe. Cute location with friendly service. They always have fun lattes on draft too that are really yummy. read more

The oat draft (neat- no ice) is my top five favorite coffees ever. So foamy and tasty! I bring all my friends visiting the city to this spot to try their coffee. The coffee shop itself is small so there are only a few tables, and it's best to take the coffee to go and find a spot outside in the nearby triangle to sit. The staff are always kind but during the mornings you will be waiting close to 20 minutes to get coffee because of the line. read more

I was walking by and saw a line to get in, so I had to stop and go in. It was worth the small wait! They moved very fast and have draft lattes! They were outstanding! I also had a canele and blueberry danish to eat and they were excellent! This is a hidden gem and if in town I will definitely go back! read more

Coffee is great but after years of slow lines it's getting old and they move like turtles.

Tried the strawberry matcha drink and its was basic. I've had better in smaller cities. I should have gone local coffee rather than this chain. read more

Delicious coffee and attentive service. Will go back. Great location too....... No wait. Great location read more

Stopped at this coffee shop after my redeye flight and visited multiple times throughout my stay in Chicago. The coffee is DELICIOUS and the baristas were very friendly too. The coffee although expensive, was definitely worth every dime and I appreciated the art as well. The pastries sell out quickly and I recommend to get there early to get one. This place usually has a line out of the door and almost around the block, but if you get there early or stop by midday, you won't have to wait in a line. There are a couple of tables to sit at, but wouldn't recommend trying to work from here if you have meetings due to the busy nature of the cafe. read more

Coffee is good as per the brand but the service was horrible on a Saturday morning. Didn't mind waiting in the long line at all and it moved fast, but the staff was rude and condescending. My mom asked about their pastry options and was given the bare minimum for answers, but he was still nice. The bar staff was rude when giving us our drinks, didn't tell me where the trash can was so I left my two straw wrappers on the counter and then the bar guy yelled to everyone "there's a trash can around the corner!" Like I didn't just inquire about it seconds before. Maybe they need to be paid better to enjoy their jobs but damn read more

Gosh I love la Colombe! I ordered the strawberry oat milk draft latte and it was so smooth plus there was a decent amount of strawberry flavor (didn't taste artificial at all). 13/10 would recommend. I also got a chocolate orange pastry (I forgot the exact name) but I wasn't too impressed. It felt slightly stale, so I'd stick to just the drinks next time. The seating area was a bit small but there were open seats as most people seemed to order takeaway. read more

A well-known coffee roaster in Chicago and nationwide! Delicious adorable coffee shop in the Gold Coast very convenient location. They even offer pastries, and breads through the Publican! read more

I love this coffee place in Gold Coast! I wish they had more seating here, but the coffee is always amazing. Truly one of the best coffee "chains" in the city. Coffee is always smooth, service is always quick & it just feels elegant. Will always return read more

I've been here a few times. Got a vanilla latte here that was amazing. Also have gotten their ice coffee and was satisfied with it as well. read more

Solid coffee drinks and friendly staff. We ordered an almond milk latte and a decaf latte--both were perfect. As far as an improvement, a large printed menu on the wall would help. read more

Today I went to this place to get a coffee after seeing that this is a pet friendly place. When I walked in I was denied service for having a pet. I would have not walked in but for the yelp website stating it was dog friendly. Please see the picture below. read more

I drink a lot of coffee and this was a stand out. For a constant line they have a well oiled machine so it goes quickly.

I love La Colombe canned drinks but love La Colombe even more now that I've been to their cafe! Can't wait to come back to here or another location. + - They have their draft lattes on tap! So cool. I got the oat latte iced, and it was awesome as always. - Seriously the nicest staff. They all need a raise. - Free cold sparkling water on tap--just amazing. - Nice bathroom (need a code to get in) - Very fast service. Ready before I even walked to the other side of the cafe This isn't a place I'd go to chat with a friend for a long time or work/study since it's not huge--not many tables (three-ish with wooden stools) and it's best for sitting down briefly or carrying out. read more

The coffee shop itself was cute and quaint but the dark haired girl working the counter couldn't have been more passive-aggressive. The moment we walked in, she mentioned my dog (on Yelp it says pets welcome) and her tone was just not friendly. We got there close to closing time and she said: "No rush but we're closing in 5 mins." And surely rushed us out. I know everyone wants to go home after working a shift but she could have much better customer service skills. People can tell when you're being fake nice and passive-aggressive and clearly she doesn't like her job. read more

I was looking for coffee on my way to a farmers market and saw this spot. I've seen their canned coffees in grocery stores but had never tried one of their coffee shops. We got the cold brew and a cappuccino and both hit the mark. I appreciate that they made my iced coffee exactly as I wanted it. Will definitely be stopping by again. read more

The service was very fast. I was in and out quickly which was great cause I was in a hurry! I got the Strawberry Iced Mocha and a Ham & Cheese Croissant. The Mocha was simple and good. They gave you the coffee at the bar with no lid on it and a spoon so you mix it all together yourself which was honestly fun! Definitely wish it was a little stronger with the chocolate & strawberry flavors though. The croissant was not warmed up so FYI they give it to you cold but it was very yummy. A cute and tiny corner coffee shop. Perfect for on the go! read more

Coffee is 10/10. Service is too slow. Retrieving a coffee shouldn't take 40 minutes. Do I love the coffee? Yes. Does each person need 3-5 min convo to check out? no. The gals working are incred but I think a lil less talking and more urgency would do this location a lot of good!! read more

This coffee spot runs like a well oiled machine! I saw the long line and was worried, but it was a quick wait for great coffee. I definitely want to call out the woman who was working the order table outside - she was funny and sweet, and helped me with what to order! I love the system of placing your order outside, and doing a quick pay and pickup inside. It keeps the line moving and the store less congested. I had only ever had their canned drinks since we don't have the cafes in MN - so I asked for a recommendation for something without Oatmilk (bothers my stomach), after hearing her recommendations I went with the iced Whole Milk Draft Latte. She even went out of her way to make sure I didn't have an oat allergy and mentioned that there's a chance of cross-contamination. The iced latte was some of the smoothest coffee I've ever had. It was creamy and just a touch sweet from the whole milk. I wish I could have it every day! Overall, will definitely be back when I'm in Chicago next, and would love for it to be this location again! read more

Stopped in this afternoon to grab a coffee. Came specifically because I heard the Strawberry Oat Draft Latte was good. It was AMAZING. I will be back to order.

Stopped in to get a quick coffee. Ordered my go-to: latte with oat milk. Service is great at any La Colombe location - they serve your drink at the counter and give you a spoon to mix in any additional sweetener you may want to add. If you are looking for a cold drink, I recommend their Draft Oat Milk Latte (what they are known for) read more

Not an inviting place, or as friendly as the Damen location. Does not have service level of other coffee spots in Chicago- and there are many! More of a take- out place. read more

I love La Colombe for their black and tans and oat milk draft lattes. There are many milk choices like oat, almond, skim, soy and the additions to coffee stand out than other coffee shops. For example, they have syrup, additional oat milk out to add (shocking!!), Nutmeg, Coco powder and cinnamon. Staff is always friendly, locations are always clean and service is quick! They also have still and sparkling water on tap for free. read more
