Smack Dab Chicago
6730 N Clark St, Evanston, IL
Crema's Take
“Smack Dab has mastered the art of the neighborhood gathering spot where the coffee is genuinely excellent and the food—particularly their celebrated breakfast sandwiches and thoughtfully crafted gluten-free options—feels like it was made with real care. The warm, efficient staff and welcoming diner atmosphere make it equally perfect for a quick caffeine boost or lingering over brunch with someone special, which explains why so many regulars are already claiming it as their staple.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.
