Andrea at the counter was very kind and addressed me by my name. Food was good but I was a little surprised that my $20 only got me my sandwich and drink, not even any chips. The ladies working in the kitchen all seemed to be happy and having a good time laughing. Although it was a small space the dinning area was clean & I did not need to wait for anyone to wipe down a table or move anyone's trash. read more

Great smoothies and chicken caesar wrap. Friendly service and cute cafe ambiance. Wish they had better weekend hours but when I can get away from my desk, this is the spot. read more

Cute space, I ordered in person and it was ready in 30 seconds. Friendly staff! I went it to try the viral chicken caesar wrap. The wrap is huge! And the lettuce, chicken, and sauce ratio was great. The only thing was I wasn't getting a Caesar taste, I was getting a mayo taste. I like mayo so it was fine, but I do think if it was a really good Caesar dressing this would be amazing! read more

Very impressed by Nohea! The Easy Briezzzy panini was huge, flavorful, and unique. I added chicken to it and it was extremely filling. They now have soup as well, their chilli was delicious and came with oyster crackers. Smaller storefront with a couple of tables. Staff were all kind and accommodating. Good lunch spot! read more

As a big fan of chicken Caesar wraps, I had to try the one from Nohea Cafe that's been going viral and it did not disappoint! I ordered it for lunch while working from home since they close at 2 PM, and it arrived in about 30 minutes. I also grabbed the pasta salad for just $4, and it was the perfect side to round out the meal. The wrap itself was amazing. It was huge, perfectly balanced, not too dry, and packed with just the right amount of Parmesan, chicken, lettuce, and dressing. Every bite was delicious, and at just $13, you really can't beat the value for a high-quality chicken Caesar wrap. If you're a Caesar wrap lover, this one absolutely lives up to the hype. Easily one of the best I've had in the city so far! read more

Nohea Cafe is great!!! I had it catered for a lunch at work and ordered the basil pasta salad and wrap trays! The food was delivered 30 minutes early and they also forgot to bring the pasta salad. I was refunded the $30 delivery fee and they brought back the pasta salad in a timely manner so they made up for it! The wrap trays had a variety of wraps on it and all of them looked delicious. I had the roasted veggie & thought it was great. The pasta salad was super creamy and was HUGE! We ordered the large size and even with a lunch with 40 people, we had some leftovers. I would definitely order from here again, there were lots of things I wanted to try! read more

Chicken Caesar wrap for pickup. It was good, but definitely not the best in Chicago. I would say you could probably skip this if you are doing a tour of Chicken Caesar wraps. If you like your wrap with more dressing, definitely don't forget to ask for some on the side. Employees are always nice and the food is always fresh and high quality. Can't speak to the inside of the joint other than the pickup but it is clean and welcoming for people to come enjoy a coffee and lunch and perhaps even get some work done. read more

I had the Caesar wrap, it was good but a little salty to my taste, I wish the dressing was on the actual wrap and not on the side and the tortilla was cold. I would like to go again and try something different from the menu. Overall it was okay, the staff were so nice and service was fast! 7/10 read more

I went here on a rainy Tuesday for the Chicken Caesar Salad Wrap. Everyone talks about this place as having the best CCSW. As a long time lover of salad sammies I had to try. Overall very thick, stuffed with chicken, shredded parm cheese, and lettuce I was overly impressed. This place may actually have the best CCSW in the city of Chicago. The dressing was blended well into the lettuce and the chicken, the parm was protected on its own layer. If you have the time, go! I also got a coffee, had a hazelnut flavor seemingly and it was good. The hours are difficult it's truly a lunch place as it closes at 2pm. The staff were polite, the wrap came out within 5 minutes. You can sit inside, it's small and it's all high top tables, but it's not stuffy. Kid friendly read more

Really frustrating that they close at 2. I am always thinking of grabbing lunch & think of them multiple times a week and they're closed!! It's 2:45pm and lunch would be great... they should close at 3 or 4. Sad. read more

I tried the Ceaser wrap once and was HOOKED. I've been back various times now and it's my fav quick lunch in the neighborhoods. The wrap comes with fried chicken, lettuce, parm and ceaser dressing. What makes it extra special is they get home made croutons and crush them up and put them in the wrap. I'm not only are they tasty, they add such a nice crunch. Staff is always super nice. They crank these out fast! Never waited more than a few mins. You can order ahead on their website or just walk in. The potato salad is also really tasty! I've had it as a side, and goes well with the wrap. read more

Had the Espresso Macchiato the infamous Caesar Wrap and Truffle Bliss. This place left me speechless, suprised this little unassuming Cafe is putting out expertly crafted wraps and sandwiches. The quality is there, the size is there and most importantly the value is there. Let's get to it.... Espresso Macchiato: The Espresso was sooo smooth, not bitter like so many other coffee joints. The foam was "perfecto" my ancestors would be so proud. The employees give barsita a new meaning. A must have. Caesar Wrap: First impression, "OH YEAH" and as soon as I looked in the middle, I dove in. First few bites were a blur as I was trying to process all this gloriousness. Tons of fresh chicken, plenty of dressing, parmesean, perfect ratio of lettuce and house made croutons! The wrap holds up, 100%, there was lettuce chicken and dressing all the way to the last bite. I'M SAYING IT, the bar has been set here people. Ya know when you bite something and it's sooo damn good that you can only shake your head? Umm yeah, gonna be thinking about this one for awhile. Was full after a half of the wrap, but had to bite the Truffle Bliss! (Yes, I'm sitting in my car on Madison, lol) Truffle Bliss panini: Shhh, this one's not online, only a little sign in store. First impression...WTF?! What is this beautiful sandwich I'm holding? I didn't know panini's were this big, yay!! Thick cut Mortadella piled high, sweet pickles, arugula, truffle cream, cheese. My minds spinning, absolutely delicious. They have a big menu AND breakfast too, the madness has to stop! How can I possibly try this all?!! Get to Nohea and escape from the mundane! ** Check out the pics, snagged one of a catering order too. read more

The free smells at Jimmy John's don't have ish on the free smells at Nohea! The décor is nice but the smells is what comes to mind when thinking of ambience. The service is straight forward and served with kindness. I recommend ordering ahead for those that are time conscious. As for the food, it lived up to the hype and exceeded expectations. I got the Chicken Cesar wrap and my wife got a south of the border wrap. The chicken cesar was fresh and light; yet, filling. The crunchy texture of the croutons contrasted the soft juiciness of the chicken and fresh crisp of the lettuce. I didn't get pictures of the south of the border wrap but it was equally delicious. I highly recommend treating yourself to the Nohea Cafe sometime soon. read more

As I was heading to Mary Bartleme Park, I spotted this coffee shop and cafe. It was getting to be around lunch time, and this was good timing because they have a pretty nice sandwich menu. Nohea Cafe is a small place that's only open at breakfast and lunch, and closed weekends. By that information, it's obviously geared toward downtown employees. The cafe though is good for anyone who happens to be here. Being kind of hungover and not fully awake, I certainly needed a boost. I came in and got a coffee. They have a pretty basic coffee menu. It's $2.75 for a cup. More impressive are the salads and sandwiches. Good amount of these and they start to serve these pretty early. The one I got was the Mediterranean Veggie. It's about $10 for a pretty big sandwich. This came with cucumbers, feta, which I left off, greens, hummus, olives, tomatoes, and vegetables. It was vegan by leaving off feta. This has a good amount of toppings and was a good price for the big portion. Gets busy. It's a small place so it gets crowded easily. They have basic breakfast stuff but at lunch there's Mediterranean salads and sandwiches. read more

Everything is perfect besides them not being open on the weekends. You can't have the best chicken Caesar wrap in Chicago and have funky hours plus not be open on the weekends. It's criminal. Please reconsider!!!!!! read more

Sweet cafe in the neighborhood! There are many, great options for sandwiches. There are also some great options for drinks, including coffee and juices. There is a good amount of seating inside and it's a very cute cafe. The staff is wonderful and quick with service! I enjoyed my California turkey sandwich and the turkey portion was very generous! read more

Food was ready on time, wrapped well, with my extra dressing, napkins in cute bag. However, a little light on chicken for $13. Was it the best CC wrap ever had, no, but tasty. I picked up off their site, had service charge where noticed Grubhub/Yelp does not. read more

Wow, this was an unexpected treat for a small cafe on the corner. The food was so delicious that I returned to work to write this review. I was craving a panini, and this small cafe popped up in my searches, so I grabbed my friend, and off we went. For a small restaurant, they pack big flavors in their bites. I ordered the Easy Briezzzy, and my friend called the Tommy Cubana. We also ordered two gingerbread lattes. Now, where to start. My Easy Briezzzy was all comfort flavors wrapped into one panini (which packed a lot of punch for happy taste buds). I did steal a bite from my friend's sandwich. It was still steaming when he got it, and that bite was great. I am not a fan of mustard in any capacity, but I did not even taste it. The gingerbread lattes were superb, for the fact that they were not overly sweet. The cafe was not super busy, but we arrived at the tail end of the lunch hour, and the cafe closed at 2pm. When we arrived, most of the customers in the establishment were grabbing their take-out orders. We will revisit this cafe again to try more delicious menu items. read more

Ordered from here a few times through work and I love the Easy Briezzzy panini & sometimes I add turkey! The Chicken Caprese is also good too. I need to try the Chicken Caesar wrap still read more

I love their wraps and smoothies. I do wish they brought back the buffalo chicken wrap though, but great place overall!

Multiple hairs found in my order, and was requested to "come back" to show staff before I got a refund. Luckily they accepted my pictures instead. Staff was defensive and unapologetic when I called. read more

Nice little cafe in West Loop that I like to check out from time to time when I dont feel like putting any hearty breakfast together during the week. I've had the Breakfast Croissant sandwich with cheese, eggs and ham as well as the breakfast burrito and both are very delicious. They close at 2pm so you can get in there and grab something for lunch such as a salad or sandwich. The Reuben panini and Rueben sandwich were both very good. The staff seems very nice...I had a brief interaction with what seemed to be the owner or manager and she was cool. I wish they were open on Saturdays or Sundays but I totally understand that everyone needs days off. read more

Shame on me for not reading the other reviews but they're right - solid paninis but this place gets busy during lunch so you should order ahead to avoid the lines. A simple sandwich needs to be really tasty to justify the 15 minutes I spent waiting read more

My fiancés company catered this place for lunch one day and told me it was very good. It's been about 2 months since then and I think I've ordered from here 5 times. Probably the best chicken cesear wrap I've had in Chicago. Their southwest wrap, the smokehouse turkey, and their chicken salad are all excellent options as well. Perfect sandwich shop in the city. read more

The food here is incredible. They take care into preparing your food. I love their wraps. They also have one of the best Tuna salads in Chicago. The portions are a little small for the price, and I have friends complain about that too. The flavor is there though. read more

The staff is really nice and they are quick which is why I gave 2 stars. I tried this place twice for coffee and sandwiches and didn't enjoy. I didn't like the taste of the coffee and the sandwiches were mostly bread. Didn't seem like fresh bread at that. There are many other places close by that I feel are better. read more

Ordered "The Ricky" for lunch today. It's tasty but a little dry without a condiment. I asked for mayo that was an additional charge (slightly annoying when the sandwich is already $11.50 with no side). I just hoped the avocado Aïoli would be fine but it's not really an aioli just mashed avocado. Glad the bacon was cooked! read more

Great place ... a little over priced but what isn't these days... good food and great people

I just tried stopping by to order a sandwich to go, and was surprised to find the door locked. One of the employees opened the door and informed me that even though they are open until 2:00pm, they stop taking orders at 1:52pm (note that she picked this arbitrary time after quickly looking at the time on her phone). I looked at my phone and it was 1:53pm - I apologized for arriving towards the end of their business hours and asked if they'd be willing to accommodate my order. She very rudely said "no, sorry" and then shut the door in my face. I just purchased a new condo down the street from here and thought it would be a nice neighborhood place where I could grab a sandwich. Now I'll never know, because I will NEVER go back there after today. read more

Didn't send the extra dressing but the food was delicious! I'll continue to order from there.

I work right around the corner from Nohea and have ordered from here a handful of times. It's a small little cafe right on Madison and I do mean small. It can get extremely crowded and hectic during lunch so there may be a ton of people waiting in a small, crowded space. I tend to order online and pick up to avoid this mess. The food is good but portions are a bit small. Overpriced in my opinion but it's a nice spot to pick up food for a quick lunch. Not my go-to for lunch but I will return nonetheless. Staff is very friendly and welcoming! read more
