Coffee Lab & Roasters

"Line was out the door but I probably waited max 15 minutes. Super cozy inside and the staff was efficient and quick. I had never seen a madeleine latte before so I had to try it. It was perfectly sweet and the milk to coffee ratio was ideal! Definitely see why the reviews are so high."

"Great little spot in Lincoln Park! It’s a small café with limited seating, and it can get a bit loud when it’s busy, but the vibe is still cozy. I tried the Pistachio Rose Matcha and the Blackberry Cobbler Matcha—both had a nice matcha flavor, I just wish the syrup flavors came through a bit more. The almond croissant was delicious"

"I found this small coffee shop in Chicago by accident, and I’m really glad I walked in. I ordered a matcha latte and a cappuccino, and both were excellent. I drink matcha lattes often, so I can tell when the quality is real and here, they use very good matcha. The flavor was smooth, clean, and balanced, not overly sweet, just honest. The cappuccino was also beautifully made, with soft milk texture and a rich espresso base. You can feel that they care about the craft. The space is simple, warm, and filled with natural light. Nothing loud, nothing forced just people quietly enjoying their coffee. Sometimes the best places are the ones you don’t plan to find. I’ll definitely come back."
