Candor
1745 W Division St, Chicago, IL
Crema's Take
“Candor is a minimalist gem in Wicker Park where creative seasonal drinks like their Black Salt Mocha and maple miso matcha sit alongside thoughtfully pulled espresso and pour overs. The clean, windowed space strikes that rare balance between a serious coffee destination and a genuinely welcoming spot to linger with a friend or your laptop, all while their croissants and cardamom buns prove they're equally committed to what's on the plate.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks, with a pour-over program, matcha and tea options too. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu.

The place to grab coffee in Wicker Park! Visiting from out of town and have loved their clean straight forward vibe. Their seasonal Black Salt Mocha hit on all the right notes and the Cardamon Bun was a perfect compliment sourced from a local bakery.
