SOLOWAY COFFEE BUCKTOWN
1708 N Damen Ave, Chicago, IL
Crema's Take
“Tucked into Bucktown, Soloway Coffee is a beautifully curated spot that doubles as a collaboration with Bandit Running, blending specialty coffee culture with a community-focused vibe. Their baristas pour serious care into both traditional espresso drinks and creative signatures like their now-legendary pistachio cruffins and oatmeal cappuccinos, while also nailing their decaf and matcha offerings for those seeking something different. Whether you're grabbing a quick coffee or settling in for the afternoon, the cozy, intentional atmosphere makes it clear this is a place where quality and warmth aren't an afterthought.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks, with a pour-over program, matcha and tea options too. A slow-sit, quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu.
