    Top two coffee chain I've been to in Chicago. The location is usually pretty lively. Nothing super unique about this location. I got the draft latte which is a pretty solid choice, very creamy.

    I should have guessed by the line around the block that this place would be worth the wait. Lovely little shop with outstanding coffee drinks and house made pastries. What a fabulous way to start a leisurely weekend morning . Tip- not the place if you are in a hurry . Highly recommend! .

    Very great coffee & pastries with an upbeat but neighborhood-friendly vibe! I had been wanting to stop here because I always see a line out the door. I came before work this morning and though there was a decent line, the service was very speedy. The staff was very friendly and works fast. I got a cereal milk oatmilk draft latte and a chocolate croissant. The cereal milk oatmilk draft latte was SO GOOD! Delectably smooth and creamy it was perfect! The chocolate croissant was good too. However the chocolate that was layered on top tasted more burnt than chocolatey, and it didn't have that crisp freshness of a freshly baked croissant. But it was still very good and I would get it again! Gotta love a coffee shop that is so good the line is out the door but that also works through that line fast without sacrificing quality!

    Short line on a Sunday afternoon. My friends' drinks and my drink were ready within 1 minute of placing our orders! I got an iced pumpkin spice latte (seasonal) and usually I'm not the biggest coffee fan, but it was so smooth, delicious, creamy, and had enough sweetness which I personally need in coffee drinks. I would definitely come back! Employees were so friendly too :)

    I LOVE their oatmilk draft lattes! So creamy and smooth with the perfect amount of sugar. There was a line out the door when I went but it went fast and I got my order within minutes. Love the vibes and the coffee!

    great coffee and menu is very simple! ordered an iced cappuccino, iced vanilla latte & iced mocha. bold coffee flavor balanced with milk. the line was almost out the door on a sunday afternoon but service was quick!

    Love La Colombe. This location has wifi! Their seasonal cereal milk oat draft latte / oat half tan is super good. This location is really nice and more spacious than the Gold Coast one (similar size to West Loop / Wicker Park).

    Really disappointing experience. Place was not busy - and there were 3 baristas behind the counter. They continued to talk while I stood at the counter. Finally, one came over to take my order. She seemed put out and annoyed. Cost was $20 for a pastry and tea. I sit down and the baristas are literally just standing around, talking, spacing out (pretty sure they were all high). Ten minutes go by and I haven't gotten my drink. I notice that someone came in after me and got their drink made right away. I went up to the counter to check on my drink - they hadn't made it and were like oh yeah working on it. Anyways, finally got it. Too expensive, staff seems annoyed and out of it, food and drink subpar. Just a really downer of an experience.

    First time trying La Colombe out. The inside is cozy and the service was extremely quick! I tried the Oatmilk Cereal Latte and it is some of the better coffee I've ever had. Will be coming back again!

    Meghan, I have not seen advertisements for stickers there.....but I wouldn't say that means they don't, I just have not ever asked.

    What a place. This is so much more than just a coffee house. Tons of options, great ambience, and…read moregenuinely kind people. We started with a mocha, a solid, well-balanced drink that wasn't overly sweet and was just perfect. We didn't plan on eating here, but the menu was way too tempting. We ordered the cinnamon roll, and wow. This was insanely good. Most cinnamon rolls in the U.S. feel like sugar-heavy, cinnamon-flavored buns, but this one was light, flavorful, and beautifully made. The irimshik on top really elevated it, subtle, warm, and just sweet enough. Easy 10/10. Next was the cottage cheese pancake, which was also very good. It had a generous amount of cottage cheese stuffed inside, and paired with the sweet irimshik dip, the dish came together really well. 9/10. We then tried the qattama. It was good. flaky, crispy, and reminded me of a paratha. It came with a sour irimshik dip. While each component was good, I felt the qattama would shine more with a gravy-based dish. 7/10. Finally, we ordered the Nan Salma pasta. It's a tarry-based white sauce pasta with a unique flavor profile, and it was genuinely yum. Definitely something different and worth trying. Highly recommend it. 8/10. You have space to sit down and work as well. Service was good too. Some of the dishes might take 7-10mins to get prepared. It's not like your daily coffee shop who have stuff ready to go Overall, a great spot with unique food and a welcoming vibe. Definitely coming back. 9/10

The kind of place where you slow down without trying. The staff was genuinely nice too. Asked how my day was and even recommended couple of pastries. I ordered a hot chocolate with an almond blueberry financier. The hot chocolate was honestly perfect. Rich but not heavy. You get that dark chocolate hit first, then it smooths out. Creamy. Warm in the right way. The financier was great. Nutty from the almonds, little bursts of blueberry, soft but not mushy. I dipped it into the hot chocolate (had to), and yeah... even better. No regrets there. It's a small place, but if you get there early, you might grab a seat with a really nice city view. Worth it. I'll definitely be back. Especially now that I know there's a solid hot chocolate spot right nearby.

One of the guys on the team recommended firecakes because he had been here in the past and thought they were awesome. I'm super glad that I agreed to give it a shot. It's not a sitdown place, it's a place where you grab a doughnut and go for a walk. She had just put out a tray of apple cider donuts, and chocolate frosted. I was super excited because I love a good apple cider donut, especially in the fall. Needless to say it did not disappoint and to be honest, I wish I had ordered two of them. Sadly, I'll be leaving in the morning for a flight so early I can't even get one for breakfast. I have already booked marked this location so I can return on future visits.
