Crema's Take

“Tucked into Chicago's Edgewater neighborhood, this Julius Meinl outpost is a serious espresso destination where specialty drinks shine and the kitchen backs up the coffee with generous, well-priced food that goes beyond typical cafe fare—think protein bowls and full breakfast menus alongside pastries. The vibe strikes that perfect balance between welcoming work-from-home spot and genuine gathering place, with attentive staff and a cool, comfortable atmosphere that keeps regulars coming back, though coffee availability can occasionally be hit-or-miss depending on the time of day.”

What to expect

Espresso-focused. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Wifi.

I have been here before and got breakfast. It was yummy. This time I got the chicken protein bowl! Big portion - enough for delicious leftovers, and the price was so perfect. Atmosphere and waitstaff is lovely and efficient. Be sure to visit!

I met a friend here for coffee, but the experience left me feeling a bit unwelcome. They didn’t have any brewed coffee available, and the server said it was too late in the day to make more. She suggested an Americano instead, and when I asked if it would cost more, she agreed…

I was pleasantly surprised when I walked in this unassuming restaurant. It is cool and comfortable. Our server was top notch. Very helpful and enthusiastic. The food and drink menu offer a bevy of options; however we were underwhelmed with the food. The appetizers were lukewarm…

Best coffee in Edgewater, it’s great spot to plug in your computer and work/study all day. They have a great food selection to dine in and to go as well. I can’t have any coffee anywhere else as good as this coffee imported from Austria!
