No one welcomes you when you come in. They've completely blocked off the coffee bar giving a get your coffee and get out vibes. The owner is... I don't know mad about something. I was there about a month ago and owner sat in the only comfy seating area left. I asked for the other seat and he said that's fine but I'm taking a call. Continued to loudly talk on Skype for 30 / 60 min, but if you've been in Helm you know there's no where you could have sat and not heard him. Today I was not welcomed in. Then that same manager and I think the other manager or head roaster were having maybe some dispute that required cussing at the coffee. Usually I would go to the manager owner before but when the issue is because of them. Unfortunate because it's close to our house but it just seems like they really don't like people in general.

It has smooth, creamy, with notes of butter and earthy cardamom. I'm visiting from out of town but I would not hesitate grabbing another coffee before leaving town. Highly recommended.

Dear Coat Check, We need to talk -- and I say that with…read morelove, because I keep coming back, which means I'm invested. You're doing a lot of things right. The vibe is there. The aesthetic is there. I want to be here. But at your price point, the experience needs to match the atmosphere, and lately there have been a few things quietly chipping away at that. First -- the syrup situation. I shouldn't have to order a specific menu latte just to get a flavored drink. A little flexibility goes a long way in making a customer feel like a guest and not just a transaction. Let me build my drink a little. I'll spend more, I promise. And the pastries, baby. I ordered a croissant and watched it get placed in a bag with a thin sheet of paper like it didn't deserve better. By the time I got home, it had made up its mind to be a different pastry entirely. I know there's a microwave back there -- I've seen it working for the breakfast sandwiches. A warm croissant is a small thing that changes everything. I'm not going anywhere. But I need you to know I notice these things -- because I care about what this place could be. Still yours (for now), A regular.

This little gem is exactly what I'm looking for in a coffee shop. I took two steps inside and felt…read morelike I was at home. The vibes are straight up moody, in the best way possible. Twinkle lights, a neon sign with the phrase "stay wild," plants everywhere and I mean everywhere! Little things that I noticed and loved included a table with a community puzzle and some board/card games, very cool artwork on the walls, and hints of Halloween (skeletons and skulls), my favorite. The community feeling was also very obvious. Everyone was friendly, there were so many cute dogs and people waving and saying hi to each other as they came and went. I loved it. Now, on to the coffee... I was going to be staying put for a while before jumping on the road for a three hour drive so I ended up getting two of their seasonal drinks and a pastry. I always go for the seasonal options and they had several good ones to try. I started with the "peelin' so good," a banana and caramel latte with strawberry drizzle. I opted to get it with oat milk. Oh my goodness, it was so good. You might question banana in a latte, but I've been seeing them pop up everywhere and it was delicious. I also got a babka pastry, which I had never heard of before. It's pretty much a braided roll mixed with a sticky bun. It had cinnamon in it and a syrup over it. I snacked on that while I was there and finished it in my car. Super tasty! Before I left I got the "beez nutz" latte because I knew I would need help staying awake while driving for three hours. It was a honey latte with a peanut butter cold foam. Also delicious. I sipped down every drop. This shop is the perfect mix of dark whimsy, community, and coffee. A special place indeed. Give them a visit!

As we walked in the ambiance of the plants and art was really cool. Seating was a bit weird, I dislike that singles were hogging up the two tops or four top tables. I guess some people lack etiquette but honestly if the last coffee shop we went to can instill rules then I feel like others should too for the sake of all of their patrons being able to enjoy their shops. We both ordered the Peelin so good, banana caramel with the strawberry drizzle (iced and hot) and a carrot cake muffin. Both coffees were really good: highly recommend both. The carrot cake muffin was dry and the cream cheese crumbled it was so dry so I will not get that again. Definitely 5 stars for the drinks and staff. Three for the overall quality of the muffin because it would have really been great with my drink :( Staff was friendly and welcoming. Definitely will be back on a sunny day to enjoy the patio.

For starters, I love the concept of alcohol after 5 and no laptops after 7. I do wish there was a couple more food options but I can see the pros and cons of having a lot of food on the menu from efficiency to people staying too long. The chicken salad sandwich is so simple yet so good! Only downside is they run out of it so quick! My favorite is a cappuccino but i have tried a few different drinks from their unique menu and everything has been good! The ambiance is upbeat as everyone is busy working and there is house music playing along with current hits. People are doing everything from reading to interviewing people here. On thursdays they have jazz and i can't wait to attend soon! Go here quite often to meet friends and do homework. The parking lot is only a few spots so heads up on that. Will be back! 10/10

Jazz music starts at 8pm on Thursdays and by 8 pretty much all tables were taken. On Thursdays they also have 1/2 off bottles so we decided to get a Prosecco to share. We ended up getting two ! They have a small evening menu ranging from charcuterie boards, olives, crab cakes and flatbread. I got the prosciutto, arugula and fig jam flat bread and omgggg it was DELICIOUS!!! The sweetness of the fig jam and the saltiness of the prosciutto is a match made in heaven! One thing I will say is the music is very loud for how small the place is and it was hard to hear but other than that, I will definitely be back. They are also a coffee shop in the morning and a cute spot to work remotely for a day and I'm going to plan to do that! I want to try their coffee !

The menu explains what is in each drink and has a visual of the ingredients so it is really easy to order even if you don't know what the drinks are. There is lots of parking available and lots of tables to stay and dine in. We got one of the tables in a nook area which was really nice. There were multiple high chairs too so it was a great stop with my toddler. I recommend this one completely just for food, just for drinks, but ideally for both!

I got a salted chocolate chip cookie, but I also considered the cinnamon roll. They also have brownies, carrot cake and yogurt parfaits. It's not a huge food menu. They have a much larger beverage menu, including coffee in all of its permutations, like traditional ol' drip coffee, lattes, Americanos, cortados, macchiatos and the like. Other beverages include tea, lemonade, hot cocoa and yerba mate. The salted chocolate chip cookies was great. Kinda salty and as big as my hand. I think they get the baked goods from a local place. Skosh is like a thrift store with a coffee shop inside it. There are couches and furniture nicely arranged that you can sit on, but that furniture is for sale. So is the clothing that is placed hither and thither. So are the mirrors and paintings all around. You can get something to drink and then kind of just wander around and look at all of the things around the store. A black cat wanders around the store, too! How can it get better? It really can't. Skosh is a must-visit if you're in the Garfield Park neighborhood.
