Crema's Take
“Junebug's beignets are the real deal—pillowy, not overly sweet, and worth a dedicated trip if you're craving that New Orleans energy in Chicago. Beyond the pastries, their savory food punches above its weight with excellent gumbo, hand pies, and brisket sandwiches that elevate what could be a basic coffee shop into a genuine neighborhood gathering spot. The cozy, community-focused vibe and genuinely friendly staff make it equally suited for a solo work session or catching up with friends over coffee and something substantial to eat.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee, with creative signature drinks. A laptop-friendly spot, outdoor seating. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly. Parking available.

Their beignets are AMAZING! We tried the sandwich and we loved it, rich in flavor! And their coffee has a good flavor, got the tiramisu latte! Would recommend!
I went to June bug just to study and get maybe a coffee when I stumbled upon their menu. The gumbo was amazing and the beignets were not too sweet which I like. They were not skimpy on their portions either and the customer service was great! Would come back.
