Not sure how Matt managed to get hired here, so I assume being rude is part of their training…read more After hearing great things about their coffee and being in town for a trip, I payed Wormhole a visit. I ordered 5 coffees one morning, and all the register guy did was write a few names on some cups and placed it down. I understand tipping culture is a divided topic of discussion, but at the end of the day, it is OPTIONAL. After pressing the skip button from what I believe to be non-tip worthy service, he threw a fit and said "Wow you're serious? After I did all that?" Meanwhile all he did was write names on cups. Now I would understand if he was the barista working hard to pump out the coffees, but two lovely ladies were in the back doing that. He shooed me and my friend out of line as we were still processing what he just said. The next customer orders and he had the audacity to talk about us to them while we're 5 feet away. Delusional as he was, he had the nerve to say we were holding up the line and made him do "all that work", and I could promise you, we knew exactly what we wanted to order the second we got up, and took no longer than 45 seconds. We also witnessed he got into it with another customer, so it seems like he's the problem here. Most wild service I have ever received, all for some milky coffees. I ended up tipping the lovely ladies in the back though. Be warned. There are much better spots.

Their menu had some delicious-sounding options in terms of both drinks and pastries. I went with the Tea Time, which they described as a lemon poppyseed muffin in a matcha latte. It came with the MOST delicious cold foam on top that I've ever had. I would literally order this drink again just for the cold foam. The matcha itself was nothing noteworthy, but I overall enjoyed my drink. The tables are quite small but they do have free Wi-Fi. It's a decent place to get some work done but maybe not stay for hours or anything. In general, I will hopefully be back!

They used to have great empanadas too but the tacos are soooo good. And they have great salsa to go along with them. They sell some beverages like Topo Chico, apple juices, and Jarritos. I have only had one weird interaction here with a staff member, I asked for a pump of mocha syrup in my cold brew and they basically said it was a dumb idea because it wouldn't mix. I have had that in several cold brews at several different well established coffee shops in Chicago and it's delicious when you need a sugar boost. The barista did it but he also shared it didn't make sense. It was uncomfortable. But I didn't let that mar my experience. I still have continued to order my beverage with that barista. Also they have a great mural in the back.

This is nestled inside of a hotel and it's not immediately clear in the lobby, but luckily they have a person greeting you upon entry. The hostess is in the middle and seating is in a beautiful atrium. We sat next to a fountain at a small table. 5/5 shrimp cocktail. The shrimp or colossal, lol! The cocktail sauce and the tartar/aïoli sauce was amazing, and the shrimp was perfectly cooked. 5/5 crispy, artichoke with an aïoli sauce. Beautifully presented, perfectly crispy. The aïoli was so delicious. I kept it for the rest of my meal as it being sauce. 4/5 American breakfast with egg whites. Egg whites were slightly runny, but good portion. The bacon was crispy and slightly sweet. Super yummy. Crispy potatoes were like a deep fried large country potato. Good with the aïoli, but I didn't eat too much. 4/5 petite potato, American style. These are truly petite. I wanna say it was $14-$20 but I expected a little bit more. 5/5 chocolate chip cookie for my Bestie's birthday. Best cookie she's ever had. Delicious, warm, chewy. 5/5 butterscotch crème brûlée. First time I've ever had a butterscotch version. The custard was delicious, and the Brulé topping was not too thick. Annihilated the whole thing. The atrium was beautiful. I wish there was a little bit more space for us to take photos, but the hotel itself beautiful. Our service was great.

From the atmosphere to the details, there's a genuine sense of cultural appreciation rather than simply using culture as decoration.

A reminder that a coffee shop can be a small space where different cultures, stories, and people come together.

I don't know what sorcery they are using to bake these scones, but they are not your average dry, flaky pastry. They are moist, gooey, huge, heavy on flavors and ingredients, and always delicious. I'm tempted to ask the owner to start texting me the scone flavors of the day so I never miss my favorites. Top 5 scones: - Peaches and cream - Cherry chocolate - Vanilla chai and/or vanilla rosemary (can't pick) - Lemon ginger - Chocolate caramel pecan Obviously I'm a sweet pastry person, but they also always have a couple of savory options like ham jalapeño cheddar, goat cheese, etc. I had one that was like blackberry habanero one time?? So good and so unique. Thank you, Ritual, for always feeding me scones :)

I told the guy that the drink was terrible, that it tasted like warmed up Hersheys syrup. He took my drink and said, "Oh I'm sorry about that." I paused a second; he had nothing else to say. He didn't offer to make me a new drink. Didn't offer a pastry. Didn't offer a refund. I'm out $6 and I did not get to enjoy a treat. We're urged to support local, but experiences like this remind me why I like to go to the consistent chain that ALWAYS remakes my drink if there's a problem (which their rarely is), no questions asked. Totally disappointing. Would not go back because my drink was terrible and the customer service didn't exist.
