    This was a very cool vibes spot. I wasn't the biggest fan of my seasonal latte drink (pretty bland), but the coffee shop's decor and seating made up for it. This is definitely a shop where you can comfortably work from home for multiple hours a day; there's even a opportunity to rent out a workspace upstairs with a membership. They looked to have a small menu for food, but there are many eateries nearby that one can partake in.

    Very Very Cute /Cool Coffee Cafe and Co-working space with small bites and and beautiful brews. Super nice and knowledgeable staff I can't believe in just discovered this place. My Go to "fuel" is the iced Americano and this one was perfect

    Tried the Coffee on new spring menu. Be mine Coffee. It was very good. Very quiet space. A great place to work remote in Southloop. Baristas are also very nice and took my special requests!

    I got the decaf iced latte, hazelnut, with oat milk. I don't like it when drinks r too sweet but this was PERFECT! The coffee quality is sooo good. I will def be coming back.

    I ordered: Honey Lavender Cold Foam Cold Brew Turkey Club - turkey, bacon, avocado, tomato, mayo, cheddar Cold brew tasted great. My sweet tooth would like the honey lavender foam to be sweeter but great taste overall. Turkey Club was delicious - perfectly layered and crispy. Next time, I'm going to ask for more turkey. This place really shines in the interior design. It's a large space with different kinds of seating. A great place to chill with friends or to study alone without loud music in the background. Employees were very nice and helpful.

    Quiche (Housemade)

    In the mood for hot coffee after an appointment at the Rush clinic next door, I decided to pop over to Overflow next door as I have heard good things. As others have pointed out, this spot has good vibes and is a nice WFH spot during the day. The ladies up front were nice but a little confused about the types of quiche being displayed. No biggie, I was excited to try the Metric coffee and walked out, happy with a hot cup in hand and took an enormous sip. To my dismay, the drip coffee was realllly watered down. I could barely taste the rich, smooth coffee that I know & love Metric coffee beans to be. Luckily, the cheddar and broccoli quiche that I also ordered saved the day. The delicate crust and big chunks of veggie were yum. Perhaps this was an off day but it was a bummer to have such lackluster coffee.

    The quiche and coffee were both amazing and the vibe was perfect for working and relaxing.

    I cannot stress this enough but I drink a lot of iced coffee. The amount where, yeah maybe I WON'T be able to afford a house. And this cold foam cold brew? is one of the best I've had. So lucky I needed a place to work for a couple hours while on a recent trip to Chicago. The staff were super friendly. The place really busy but had a great office energy on a monday morning. The seating even gave you options to be a little secluded or join others. It wasn't pretentious at all for a place that encourages coworking. The downside of my visit? I live in Charlotte.

    Came here for some spontaneous coffee. The service / coffee took a couple minutes but the drinks and ambience were great!

    Decaffeinated latte with vanilla syrup
    Ariel S.

    The baristas seemed friendly. We got there close to close so couldn't stay too long, but it was the perfect cozy spot for a rainy afternoon! With both couches and tables, there are options for reading, chatting, or getting work done. My vanilla latte was tasty, selected from multiple decaf options which I appreciated.

My friends and I each tried their specialty drinks and i got an everything croissant. We had high expectations because everything looked so good on the menu. Unfortunately none of us particularly enjoyed anything we got. All of our drinks just tasted like milk (both iced and hot options) and my croissant was oddly sweet because of the filling and I didn't love that. The pastries are actually being shipped in from elsewhere (they have exactly the same one in coffee shops out in Naperville too lol). Which leaves nothing special here. It's also very small so it gets crowded and swamped pretty fast. You're really constantly stepping out of someone's way when you're just waiting for you order, so that's not ideal either. Likely won't return.

I often frequent during the week where it is less busy and the wait time is significantly decreased. Everything is amazing here from the fresh bagels, the quality ingredients, and the amazing service. Their handcrafted, fresh bagels will have you addicted (like me).

They also do a bagel of the week which rotates. They also offer a variety of cream cheese like honey vanilla, jalepeno, chive and bacon, and even sun dried tomato.They have a flavor and vibe for everyone. PERSONALLY, I go the sandwich route.

I got the bacon egg and cheese bagel on a cacio e pepe bagel with caramelized onion cream cheese. The egg was so fluffy and the flavors of the bagel and cream cheese complimented eachother so well.

It had so much seeds and the second you picked it up they went everywhere. When you are chewing all you taste is seed. Not complaining though i wanted to try something new. Overall the breakfast sandwiches here are where its at! There is a reason why this place sells out and has a line out the door. I would suggest ordering online for delivery to avoid that. I did pay $32 for all of this ($7 delivery fee and i live close by). Kind of expensive but still worth it!

I wanted to take advantage as well because my job was reimbursing for meals so I went to indulge. I have been staying away from meat for the past year so I was disappointed that they did not have any meatless options for the breakfast sandwiches. I decided on the croissant sandwich, which had bacon, egg, and cheese. I also ordered a large iced coffee. Holy crap-for those 2 items-it was $17!!! We went back to our room to eat and the food was still warm enough. It was good but not like $12 amazing or worth it. The coffee was good. I had to ask for almond milk to be added afterwards because that was not an option at the self serve area. They had Stevia though so I was excited about that. The staff were pleasant. This place is also open late, like 10pm or 11pm! I checked out the deli sandwiches but they looked skimpy and again not worth $15+ so I didn't bother considering here the other days for food.

This is a fast casual spot so service was pretty fast. There is a decent amount of seating, most of which was surprisingly taken around 11am on a Thursday. For starters, they no longer have their rainbow cake! I was surprised to hear that considering how popular it's supposed to be. We got both banana lattes which were extremely sweet. It's basically dessert with a hint or caffeine. I'm a big fan of banana, so I actually liked this but I would've preferred half the sweetness. The Turkey Bacon & Egg Croissant was so good! A solid breakfast sandwich - the eggs were cooked perfectly, the turkey bacon was insanely crispy, and that sambal aioli was just what this needed. I highly recommend adding Avocado like I did for some freshness & creaminess since it's a heavy sandwich as is. The Cinnamon Roll was soft, moist, and not overly sweet. Overall, I really enjoyed this breakfast!
