Crema's Take

Soloway is a stylish neighborhood gem that takes its pastries and espresso seriously, with a legendary pistachio croissant that keeps people coming back and creative seasonal drinks like maple miso lattes that prove they're not afraid to experiment. Beyond the coffee, their breakfast sandwiches are meticulously crafted—think fluffy eggs, crispy hash browns, and perfectly balanced aioli—making this the kind of place worth the wait if you're settling in for a leisurely morning rather than rushing out the door. It's got the warm, unhurried vibe of a proper specialty café where both the regulars and curious coffee lovers feel equally at home.

Their pistachio croissant is LIFE CHANGING!!! I also had an iced maple miso latte with oat milk (not sure of the exact title of the drink) and it was perfect. Only thing to be aware of is if you plan to do work here, they have a 30 minute screen time limit!

At long last! Their signature pistachio croissant 🥐 is back to being dipped in white chocolate. I’ll have to endure a seasonal boycott when they deem it too hot to dip them in the summer and Fall (?), but happy to be reunited with this perfect croissant while they last. 😋

Wow! Phenomenal breakfast sandwich! The egg was fluffy, the hash brown super crispy and not oily, the cheese so melty, and the aioli had a perfect tiny kick to it. Definitely a top 3 bfast sammie in Chicago. The coffee was also delicious!

Really cute cafe! Amazing spot for breakfast or brunch! The atmosphere and service were great. Be careful if you’re in a rush, because the line to get in was long. I waited about 25 min before getting to the counter. I got a strawberry croissant and the Mango Matcha Latte.

I personally like this stylish cafe but something can be improved. It is slightly pricy in general, but worth a visit! ✨🩷🥐Croffin was really really good, highly recommended. The flavor was well created as well. Crispy and soft, sweet but a little bit sour. 🥛☕️Cappuccino was a classic, meat the standard. Macaroon looked beautiful but the flavor was dull, nothing stood out. Napoleon cake was tasteless unfortunately, huge block of thick cream, sweet without flavor.
