Really cool setting and seating both. Only ding I have is the large is actually a medium. Otherwise 4 shot Americano and honey is excellent and some nice food options here also. Is attached to Virgin Hotel. Cool. read more

This is such an adorable coffee shop! If you are looking for a cozy/chill/fun place to get work done or catch up with friends over coffee, tea or wine this is definitely a place to consider! They have seating appropriate for getting work done (tables with outlets) and couches if you are looking for cozy seating! There is also a record player in case you want to choose a record from their collection for music. The baristas was very nice and willing to answer any questions you may have regarding the menu. I ended up trying the 'Warm to The Touch' wine drink that was recently introduced! If you are a fan of sweet wine and love cinnamon I definitely think this would be an excellent drink to try out! It was very flavorful and warm, hence perfect for a cold day in the city! My friend ended up getting the Chai tea and I tried a little of that as well! It was really good! I can't wait to come back and get myself a chai tea! read more

Two Zero Three - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Great study spot. Got the cookie dough hot chocolate and it was amazing. Would come again.

Drinks (4/5) I live close to Two Zero Three, so I'm surprised it took me this long to stop by and study here! I ordered a Lavender & Green Tea Latte, which was so delicious! The floral taste of the lavender was subtle and didn't overwhelm the latte, and the green tea really came through. My only thing was that a little bit of the green tea powder collected at the bottom so that wasn't great, but the overall flavor of the drink was awesome. Latte foam art was only okay but I think the powder was more concerning to me. Service (5/5) The people at the counter were so friendly and made conversation. It was a Sunday afternoon so it wasn't too busy, and I didn't have to wait in line to order. Atmosphere (4/5) Two Zero Three is adorable, y'all. You have a wide assortment of seating options (couches, tables with outlets, or high-top seating). My favorite is the table since I feel the most productive there but I can certainly see myself curling up on the couch to read a good book. My main concern is that the couch and table seating actually aren't that plentiful so I don't know how likely it is to get a spot when they're truly busy. Overall though, the space is clean and they sometimes have vinyl records playing on their turntable near the back. It's a soothing environment and I'm certain I'll be back for more study sessions! read more

This place was a little hard to find, but it's a cute spot with really yummy coffees. I got the Queen Bee and it was DELICIOUS. The space is small but has plenty of seating for working or relaxing. The only disappointment is that they didn't have pastries or bagels when I went, though shown in some pictures. read more

Stopped in to 2.0.3. For a coffee and a light pastry on a Saturday morning. I've never been a fan of combo places, you really can't be great at both. Coffee & wine? But it was convenient. The pastry (chocolate croissant) was not really flaky and definitely overlooked. Based on the cold hard chocolate in the middle, it was recently taken out of cold storage maybe carbonite? The americano was ok...slightly bitter. I imagine these two shots would have been better in a latte. Bottom line, the vibe may be a bit cooler than Starbucks but I think not of their coffee/pastry game. read more

I love this place. My new go-to coffee shop! * Great coffee * Prices are high but not ridiculous * Interesting drink options: Cinnamon Shakerito is basically a dirty horchata, Lavendar Matcha Latte is delicious * Power outlets everywhere, wifi * Places to work (clean bar stools and tables) and places to chill (comfy couches) read more

Definitely very Millennial; mostly 20-somethings Not trendy. Cool vibe. Very laid back. I like to try local when I travel. Latte was great. Smooth & not acidic at all. Not sure if the baked goods are homemade or prepackaged. Didnt look appetizing. Urban type music was nice, helped the laid back atmosphere. Until the kinda electronic music kicked in, but mixed playlist Loved that it was nothing like Starbucks. Cozy little space. A tad pulp fiction. Also Lots of nonformal work meetings going on around me. I heard the word "like" used a whole lot. But not loud or obnoxious like Starbucks can get. Stop by. I'll be back for coffee of course & atmosphere. read more

I am not a coffee aficionado. However, I know a lot about good service and conscientious people. I stopped in this coffee shop for my hit of caffeine, and the people were perfectly nice. Yet, what struck me about these workers was when an older gentleman, speaking hardly any English, was disturbed about something and abruptly walked away. The young woman barista, searched him out in the crowded space, to help him with his problem. That goes beyond "Midwest Nice," and showed me something real good about this younger generation. Bravo! read more

I'm staying at the Virgin Hotel Chicago to which this coffee shop is attached, so I knew what to expect: great space design that somehow complicated the intended use. The car bar is attractive, but too small for a waiting area for those getting barista-brewed drinks. The coffee menus - on paper - are in the middle of the bar, so you can't always decide what you're having while you wait. The communal work table may be too big for the space. And the music has too much bass for the space - which is noisy. I'm from Providence, RI y'all, and Bolt Coffee in the Dean Hotel May just have spoiled me: their space is better designed and trendy but more comfortable. The cold brew I had a strong and almost on the edge of too much so for me. But with milk added? Delicious! Nitro cold brew sold only in small, though? A small selection on grab & go breakfast options (yoghurt parfait was made with thick Greek yoghurt, big plump berries & not overly sweet granola. Score!!) and small salads & veggies. Pastries were tempting but I resisted. $10 for a coffee & yoghurt was a bit pricy, though. read more

Delicious drip coffee. Lovely staff. They were accommodating and friendly! Highly recommend

Ultra hipster coffee shop for the ultra hipster hotel. I dig. I'm basically in love with almost my entire Virgin experience. Pros: * Inside Virgin hotel, can access from inside or outside hotel * Open at 6 am, good for people who booked early flights * Vinyl record player (this morning playing green day/ dookie) * Non-busy, modern style Pro/Unsure: * Good cappuccino, though aftertaste was so strong of brownies, the thought that potentially an actual brownie had been pulverized and blended with my drink went through my mind several times. Con: * Non-friendly barista brings the experience from a 5 to a 4. It was early, but that's the time I need to be coddled the most (aka if I haven't had my caffeine and I can fake friendliness, you should as well). read more

Two Zero Three - Cappuccino - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

After a not-so-great first experience at TZT, I was invited to come back to TZT and to meet with their food and beverage director. I wasn't able to come in on a weekday to meet with him, but TZT seemed genuinely interested in providing my friend and I a positive second experience. We returned to TZT, and were given a gift certificate to use toward our visit. My friend and I opted not to use the certificate just yet, and instead purchased two drinks and coffee cake. There was a world of a difference between our first and second experience at TZT. The baristas were more attentive and our drinks were well-done. My latte was well-crafted, and the presentation was on-point. Perhaps we visited on an off day last time, but I'm glad we came back and tried TZT a second time. With good coffee, we also appreciated the decor and ambiance of TZT. I like the display of Shinola Detroit products, and the efforts made to make this hotel coffee shop appeal to Windy City visitors and residents alike. Thanks for encouraging us to come back, TZT. read more

I was looking for a good place to study at and came across this coffeehouse/wine bar. I think the atmosphere was definitely great for studying, and there were available sockets at almost every seat for me to charge my electronics. I was definitely very skeptical about getting the Chili Chocolate Mocha, it turned out to be really great! (and not as weird as I expected it to be). Definitely coming back :) read more

Too cute. Walked in on a rainy day. The decor is cozy and inviting. I really enjoyed how simple and organized the coffee bar is. This is the perfect example of what a corner coffee shop should be. They manage to be elegant and casual at the same time! Oh did I mention they serve beer and wine?! read more

Two Zero Three - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

2.5 stars. Starting with 5 stars, I knocked one down for the music, it was either blasting and booming way too loud, or completely silent. Where is the happy middle? Maybe this isn't a big deal to some people but I came with a friend to study and it got a bit difficult to study with this situation. I knocked down another star because after I ordered, I went back to my seat to put my wallet down and wait. When my drink was ready and the barista called "peppermint mocha," and gave me about 2 seconds before she called it again in an aggressive and annoyed tone. Sorry I couldnt walk 30 ft in 2 seconds?!?! The last .5 star knock down would be the pricing. I paid 5.02 for a peppermint mocha and it wasn't even that great. There was a pepperminty flavor in the first couple sips and that was it. read more

Two Zero Three - Peppermint Mocha - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Love this place. Especially convenient when staying in the Virgin hotel. Drinks are delicious, albeit a bit steep, but what hip modern coffee shop isn't. They offer some really interesting latte flavors like a lavender matcha (my favorite) pumpkin matcha, earl grey lavender, honey ginger, iced vanilla cinnamon, pumpkin spice, etc. Bonus points for a cool vibe and aesthetic inside, complete with comfy leather couch-booths to chill and do some work in. read more

Good coffee, good bagels, nice people. I stopped in here to grab a cup of coffee and something to eat before work, and was pleasantly surprised by how good everything was. Drip coffee was smooth and robust, and self serve which was interesting. I've gotten a bagel and cream cheese there twice, and both times the bagel has been top quality. Cream cheese serving is a little on the small side for a whole bagel, but the bagel is almost good enough to eat plain! Prices are on the higher side, but nothing out of the ordinary for an independent coffee shop in the Loop. No sandwiches or anything like that on the menu, but they do have cold-section with yogurt and fruit and things like that. The space is small, but has a "comfortable but in a kind of luxe-y way" vibe that I think works really well. However, the flow of the space feels a bit strange, as its not clear how/where to order, pay, and pick up. It seems like you just walk up to the counter and someone approaches you from there. It has worked fine both times I've been there, but I can see there being confusion when things get busy. The baristas are all friendly and happy to answer any questions. This place isn't trying to do too much, which means it does everything to a pretty high standard. Don't come in here expecting an expansive space or an extensive menu. But if you're in the area and looking for good coffee and spot to rest your feet, Two Zero Three is a good bet. read more

Cute cafe! It is very quiet and great environment for business men and students to come here to work or study!

Great location, great atmosphere, great coffee. It's great, okay?! Seriously the vibe of this place is super cool, and I love that it's a café by day and a cocktail bar by night. They upsold my boyfriend on adding a flavor to his latte but then didn't have half of their advertised flavors at the time. He ended up getting almond syrup vs. his original pick of hazelnut, and he enjoyed it, so I wasn't going to dock them any points for broadening our flavored coffee horizons. Their chalkboard also said ask us about our cold brew, which I requested, but they hadn't started making it yet, so instead I got an iced Americano. It's a chalkboard so maybe erase things you're out of and add them when they're available again, please? It's awkward having to change orders after your mind is set on them. Lastly, they also had almond milk (for free) on the side with their other milk options which was cool. read more

Two Zero Three - A fun, hip and relaxed vibe. Lots of natural light and super comfy seating. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Two Zero Three has a great vibe and aesthetic. The seating and lighting are excellent whether you're looking to have a quick coffee date or camp out to do some work/reading. The menu? It's not the best but it'll do the trick. I wouldn't recommend any particular item but haven't come across anything that I absolutely loathe either. The staff? Well, they leave quite a bit to be desired. Either they need better training (especially for providing quality customer service) or there just aren't systems in place to help the employees thrive. Trash has to be walked through seating area to be taken out and carts of items to restock the shelves have to be brought in the same way. This can be pretty annoying if you're looking for a quiet/calm coffee shop experience but it's not a deal breaker given everything else the space has going for it. Another perk? Plenty of opportunities to people watch. Didn't know how many characters linger around the intersection of Wabash & Lake Street? Stop by Two Zero Three any afternoon during the week to find out. read more

This is a really cozy coffee bar that I've gone to multiple times for studying. I really like the staff, the custom drinks in the menu and the vibes of the place overall. It's a smaller venue so seating can be a little limited but if you can find seating it's worth stopping by. They have WiFi and are charging outlets. read more

If you're into local coffee shops in the heart of downtown Chicago, then this is the place to be! I work in the South Loop (Wells and Adams), it took me about 17 minutes to walk to the cafe due to construction on Wabash. It's a great atmosphere, great seating selection and space! If you want to have a team meeting, this place would be ideal due to long tables. I ordered a cappuccino and vegetable croissant, all totaling up to $8.--. The coffee was absolutely delicious and complimented the croissant. The only downside is that there were a lot of empty dirty cups lying around waiting to be picked up by the coffee shop staff! Otherwise, highly recommend. read more

I stopped by during a break between meetings, and Two Zero Three was the perfect atmosphere to sit and read for an hour. AND you can get coffee, wine, and baked goods there, so I could probably live there. I grabbed a matcha lavender latte and it was spectacular.

A hotel coffee shop. The staff are very helpful and friendly. There's a lot of seating for a relatively small space, and if by the window you get a great view of the ruckus on Lake/Wabash. But the coffee, while certainly good, is very pricey. After a rudimentary tip I think I paid something like $6+ for a mocha. It's a great, relaxing space, and the coffee tastes like it's worth the money (plus I think they also serve alcohol). But if money is an object you may want to look elsewhere nearby for coffee. read more

Nestled inside the Virgin hotel, Two Zero Three offers solid work space, and ample seating. The cafe is tidy and the hotel lounge (upstairs) is also available past 6pm. It's a gorgeous space. Latte (unicorn Dark Matter): 4 Americano: 4 Fruit offerings: 4 (better than expected) I was craving a hot chocolate, but was skeptical to try it here, given the lackadaisical staff and the quality concern they raised. Service: 3 (neither the friendliest, nor the most informed. Had several unanswered questions regarding their cocoa drink (dark or milk, what %?), coffee roast (dark or medium), etc. Basic questions, I presumed, but no information was provided. read more
