Crema's Take
“Red June feels like stepping into a second-wave coffee time capsule where locals have quietly claimed it as their favorite spot in the city, and the iced pistachio latte alone justifies the detour to Bucktown. Fair warning: pricing isn't clearly displayed and some customers have reported surprise charges at checkout, so clarify costs before ordering, but those who get past that hurdle find genuinely good espresso and a welcoming neighborhood vibe that keeps people coming back.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, good cold brew. A slow-sit, quick-grab spot, outdoor seating. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly. Parking available.

This is one of my favorite neighborhood spots, it feels like a time capsule of a second wave coffee joint and a hidden gem only known by those living directly in the blocks surrounding it. The staff seems to know almost everyone who comes in and always has the excited energy of…
