One of my favorite coffee shops in Chicago. My only complaint is that the WiFi is really bad (dial up speeds). That might be a conscious choice (some places don’t want people on laptops) but I’m leaving it in the review anyway for other people to know or in case they don’t know. I figure it can’t cost more than $100/mo to get a gigabit connection.

The original. The O.G. Back in 2015, i stumbled into this place following the 2015 Chicago Marathon. This begin my true love affair with craft coffee. My favorite of all the places I’ve ever been. To some, the industrial feel may feel a little like other places, but remember, this place did it first. Absolutely my favorite in all of Chicago.

Easy spot to wfh bc of the tables and outlets, gets cold sometimes in the summer with the AC, and internet was slow when I was there last, so maybe not always a good wfh spot when needing high speed internet.
The coffee’s always on point!

Great coffee. Espresso and cortado are good. Small line, nice people. Thanks for emotion;).

For the size, the drink is pricy but expected due to location. I got the iced avena latte. The cayenne pepper in the drink is different but really made it. The cafe environment is very chill and theres a lot of space to sit and get work done.

Elated to enjoy class in-shop. I was happy to exchange sniffs, smells, sips, and conversations. A fantastic in-depth discussion over the influences and distinctions of coffee, their commitment to equity and fair trade, and the history behind these revelations. Class included two fresh cups of hot coffee and a bag (your choice) of their whole bean coffee. I would consider taking the class again.

Intelligentsia has very good coffee, and is a great place to bring your laptop and work. That's what most people were doing here, working. In addition, there are a couple of large tables if you have a group. The food choices are very limited. I ordered a ham croissant. It was good, but not what I expected as I thought it might be warmed up, and not much ham. The prices are a bit pricey. The service was excellent.

Great coffee options with some additional fun mocktail drinks like the Black Cat Fizz. Super tasty pop-tarts too!
