Crema's Take
“Cafe Con Leche nails the breakfast-and-brunch sweet spot with standout chilaquiles featuring a perfectly balanced sweet-spicy sauce and crispy tortilla chips that keep people coming back. The kitchen clearly takes pride in execution across the board—whether it's fresh ceviche, French toast, or their signature drinks like coconut margaritas—and the welcoming vibe makes it equally appealing for a quick solo coffee or a leisurely family meal with friends. If you're in Chicago craving genuinely good Mexican-influenced breakfast food with real flavor complexity, this is worth the visit.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly. Parking available.

Delicious food, great service and took advantage of the Happy hour with many options for $7, including margaritas.! Coconut margarita was delicious and Pastor tacos too. We'll be back.!
