Shibam Coffee
5241 N Kedzie Ave, Chicago, IL
Crema's Take
“Shibam Coffee strikes that rare balance of being both thoughtfully crafted and genuinely welcoming, with a clean modern space that manages to feel cozy rather than sterile. Their drinks lean toward elegant restraint—whether it's a perfectly calibrated pistachio latte or creative touches like nutmeg-spiced adeni tea—letting quality ingredients and technique shine without oversweetening, and the pastry selection is unexpectedly unique. It's the kind of place where the baristas remember you're there, the walls display local art curated by the owners themselves, and lingering over a pour over or specialty drink feels like the whole point.”

Came in with some friends and we all enjoyed our time. It smelled delicious upon arriving and the seating/atmosphere was very comforting. Our barista was very sweet and helpful. We got a hot vanilla latte, cookie butter latte and mufawar drink. The were all so delicious, will definitely be coming back.
Got the pistachio latte and it was great. Not too sweet nor strong in coffee. Just the perfect of both. Service was also quick as well. Love the ambiance as well
Tried this new local coffee shop and loved it. The design is clean, modern, cozy and fancy but still chill. The coffee was amazing (Midwestern coffee really is the best), and you can tell they care about quality.
Their adeni tea has nutmeg, so it tastes different from what I'm used to. I love their decorations and layout. But it took them some time to come and take my order.
The drinks are very good and not too sweet, which is something a lot of coffee places struggle with. The dessert selection is unique. I found out from the owners that the art on the walls and windows is all hand painted, everything is gorgeous. I will definitely be coming again 😊
