    Gingerbread Latte Peppermint Mocha
    Aditi S.

    We really liked our experience here! There were plenty of coffee and food options along with ample seating options. I also loved all the extra customization options available at the self-ordering kiosk (half-sweet, extra hot etc). We went the breakfast burrito and torta for food and the gingerbread latte and peppermint mocha to go with it. The ambiance was nice and cozy as if we were visiting someone's home and the the food and beverages were excellent and well made. We will be back!

    Brew brew got me on chokehold! I was at another cafe today to try something new and boy I should have never tried it because all I can think about was why didn't I go to brew brew to begin with. With much regret, I left and headed to brew brew to finish the rest of wfh morning time. I should have just came here from the start! Spacious, chill & delicious.

    The Farmer's Panini
    Natasha A.

    We came here on a Saturday at 10am and the line was out the door. This place came highly recommended. We were able to sit outside, it was a little chilly. The entire inside was full of folks. I got the veggie breakfast panini, it comes with a side of salsa verde. And it had a sauce on it, probably a chipotle aioli. It was tasty, the bread was very crunchy, and the veggies were fresh tasting. I got a cold brew too, it was tasty. My kid got a plain bagel with cream cheese and an orange juice. My partner got the farmers panini, it comes with bacon and eggs and a chipotle aioli. It was well received. My partner also got a horchata latte. Overall this place had a great vibe, good food.

    My favorite coffee shop of the moment! I'm so, so happy to have found Brew Brew. I love everything about it; the friendly staff, home-y vibes, and of course, the amazing coffee (and food!) I went with the iced coconut ube latte to drink and the farmers panini to eat. The latte is made with ube concentrate, coconut syrup, milk, and espresso. It is the best coffee I've bought in a long time! The perfect balance of creamy, nutty, and sweet. A must try!! The farmers panini was super yummy too! It was served with a salsa verde that tasted so fresh and had a nice amount of heat. Can't wait to come back here! Brew Brew, please open up another location closer to me :)

    YUM. Brew Brew has great coffee and even better (and bigger- they're massive!) tortas.

    The sandwich was really good and served warm. Had a good amount of seating as well. Latte was good but wish the coffee was a bit stronger, could've used an extra expresso shot. Will go back to try new flavors!

    Ube Matcha Latte
    Ariana G.

    I love me a good matcha latte but when you add ube to that? That's my personality in a drink. Lately I've been on a kick to find my fav matcha in the city and this one was pretty good. They locked down the ube flavor pretty well. My ube matcha latte was a nice balance of ube, matcha, and coconut flavors. And they offer pup cups so I got one for my dog! The place is cozy inside. It's located on a busy street but was able to find parking no problem. I also read they have pretty good food here.

    Apple Chai Latte, Chipotle Chicken Torta
    Kass K.

    Great food and drink and not too expensive. Nice cozy vibes inside, have an outdoor patio as well.

    Nazia C.

    I came here on a weekday morning to work and try out their menu. I was pleased that they have free street parking, open wifi, and they have a bottomless coffee on their menu. I ordered one cup of coffee and a chipotle chicken torta. The torta was delicious! Each bite included the chopped bits of chicken and fresh pico de gallo. I wanted to try the specialty drinks but I was disappointed to learn they use a powder for the horchata. Overall it was a good sandwich and coffee and I'd go back.

    a hispanic owned coffee shop, with great drinks and good tasting food. what more can you ask for. The service is okay, the staff is friendly but super busy so of course they'd wanna get people in and out. the walk up window is amazing because of the pup cups! i recommend the uber coconut latte and their cold brew.

    Everything bagel, with cilantro jalapeño cream cheese. Cafe Miel Latte. Oaxaca Horchata Drink with almond milk.
    Domonique N.

    Saw a TikTok and instantly had to make a trip. My best friend and I didn't have a hard time finding parking. Upon entering, super cute place. Witnessed a cute little fur baby getting a pup cup from the walk-up window. Spacious shop, plenty of drink and food options. Ordering was super easy and the cashier was more than happy to answer any questions or give suggestion. I wasn't necessarily hungry, so opted for the iced Oaxaca Horchata Drink with a shot of espresso and almond milk. My friend got the hot Cafe Miel Latte and an everything bagel, with cilantro jalapenos cream cheese. Let's just say, we for sure will be back. The first sip of the Oaxaca Horchata Drink was the perfect mix of sweet (not too sweet), cinnamon, creamy horchata goodness. This place had a very consistent flow of customers and even pickup orders. Thank you so much!

    I'm extremely thankful to have a friend who introduced me to this bagel spot. Definitely a top 2…read morefavorite of mine. I haven't been to the location but have had these bagels consistently for over 10 years. The texture and flavor of the bagel is everything a NY bagel is and should be. Fluffy on the inside, somewhat crispy on the outside, and oh so thiccccccccck! Their cream cheese?! Ugh! Don't skip on it, seriously everything about this place is perfect. My go to selection is the egg bagel with chive cream cheese. It's chef's kiss and hits the spot. EVERY.SINGLE.TIME!!!!

    If you're expecting this to be interchangeable with the franchised bagel places that have spread…read moreacross the country, recalibrate now. This is not that. I've been going to New York Bagel & Bialy for over 50 years, and places like this operate on a different clock, a different standard, and frankly, a different philosophy of what a bagel is supposed to be. Timing matters. If you show up after about 8:00 AM, your odds of getting bagels at their absolute peak--still warm, properly textured, with that slight resistance on the outside and softness inside--go up significantly. Earlier can be hit or miss depending on the batch cycle, but once they're in stride, this place delivers. The essentials are all here and worth your time: poppy seed, sesame, everything, and especially the bialys. The bialys alone are reason enough to make the trip--properly done, with the right chew and depth of flavor that you simply won't find in mass-produced versions. Don't overcomplicate it. Grab a dozen. On your way home, stop and pick up a couple packages of Philadelphia Cream Cheese and some smoked salmon a jar of capers, a Bermuda onion--whether here or even from Walmart--and you've got a meal that outperforms most brunch menus at a fraction of the cost. This isn't trendy. It's not trying to be. It's something better: consistent, old-world, and still doing it the right way. If you're going to call something a bagel, the standard is not branding--it's process. That's why New York Bagel & Bialy on Touhy stands apart. They actually do it right: kettle-boiled first, then baked in rotating ovens. That single decision--boiling--changes the entire structure. It gelatinizes the outer starch layer, locks in density, and produces that thin, glossy crust with real chew. Without it, you don't have a bagel--you have bread with a hole. The rotating ovens matter too. They deliver even heat, which means you get the correct balance: a slight exterior crisp with a dense, elastic interior. No puffiness. No sponge. No collapse under toppings. That's the difference here. Most chains optimize for speed and shelf life, so they steam or shortcut the process. Many local shops land in the middle. This place doesn't compromise. If you care about what a bagel is supposed to be--not just what it's called--this is the benchmark in Chicago.

I don't know what technique they do it get or keep so much topping on them, but it's a pleasure to have too much rather than not enough. They service beer here which makes it slightly unbreakfasty and their bagel sandwiches used baked eggs rather than griddled/flat topped or from a pan. Keeps them fluffy, but I prefer mine a little runnier. Service is very good, friendly, not rushed or fake hospitality. They cure their lox in house which to me feels more tender than other places, probably just a lower, longer heating or a gentler cure. Excellent schmear, a not heavy handed when scooping (respect the schream cuz). Prices are pretty good considering the care and love they put into the bagels (hand rolled, multiple proofs). They have crunch, chew, density, but air pockets. Chef/owners def put thought into the menu with flavors like zatar, dilly ranch deviled eggs. Dr. Browns sodas. Baclava cappuccinos. White fish on bagel chips, Bagel dog is such a simple combination of not just the everything bagel seasoning, but the dough as well. And the mustard pairs better than had they added schmear (sorry Seattle dogs, i'm not a fan, i only like my cream cheese in philadelphia sushi rolls, lol) . The pizza bagel needs more toppings like pepperoni, sausage becuase then it would eat like a normal size bagel bite. The challah bread on the rachel really is more well rounded than the reuben. It's something I've been recreating back home. Giard cream cheese, cmon ya'll are really hitting the nail on the head for a Chicago bagel shop. I guess that's why there are 3 locations now. The Haystack with apple butter works better than expected, but also works with a chive cream cheese sub, no ketchup needed (if you do go with the harissa ketchup from the yada yada). BEC with a side of salted tomato and harissa ketchup is amazing. If everything was 10% more like toppings wise this would be amazing, but they always seem to skimp on something whether it's the schmear, pickels, salad. I feel like i was haggling for my meal sometimes. Prices area little high for most items, but of great value for others. It's busy in the mornings, but lines move long and only once did I have to wait for a fresh batch of anything despite some large orders ahead of me. It's a 20 minute train ride, but worth it.
