    Iced vanilla latte and mini pecan pie
    Charisse Q.

    The service was quick and easy. They were very kind. The coffee hit the spot and the mini pecan pie was delicious. We also got a chocolate croissant that was incredible. There was plenty of seating. Good place to yap with friends or do some work.

    Every midday living grooving Portland, or tripping to LA and walking big scrappers down by the river in Chicago today, anyway my way is a cappuccino midday! Cupitol cappuccino just made my cap midday! Bakery too! Friendly service! In Vivio location to meet up! Spacious inside! Tables or couches to suit your comfortability! 12 foot ceilings, big windows and wood beam architecture inside. Very contemporary industrial looking! go ahead and make your midday coffee too!

    Freddo Cappuccino

    Came here to study and it was great! It was so cute to see Cupitol dogs on the wall with Polaroid pictures. Perfect for studying or just sitting and reading a book. I got their Freddo cappuccino which was good just a little strong. The breakfast sandwich or croissant was really buttery and good. The service was great as well, they bring your food and drinks to you. I did see a sign saying no laptop during the weekend but this is still a great place to change up the work day or scenery. It does close a little early but perfect if you come early in the morning.

    Walked in on a busy weekend for brunch. The line was huge but we found a seating fortunately. The portions are huge and can be shared with 2-3 people depending on the things you want to eat. For beverage got the greek espresso and nutella latte. Nutella latte was too good. We shared the berry mascarpone french toast, mushroom sphagetti and chicken egg roll which was customizable. All of them were fresh and good. Service was quick too

    Popped in on a hot Chicago day, just looking to cool down with a smoothie. Upon entering I was bummed out there was really weak ac (if any). I got the avocado smoothie, which was a wee pricey. And it was already lukewarm when I got it. I've gotta give this place another shot on a cooler day. The vibe's pretty relaxed, a few people were there eating, hanging out, or getting some work done. I also heard really good reviews on the food which I haven't tried yet.

    Breakfast Sandwich
    Jonathan W.

    Takes credit card. It's open seating so grab whatever table fits you. Self serve water and sparkling water station and other condiments. Lemon blueberry pancake ($13)- comes with 4 pancakes, but nice fluffy and big. Has blueberries on top and inside, not too sweet. Breakfast Sandwich ($10)- pretty good flavor, but quite small Midwestern omelet ($14),- super large omelet, very fluffy. One of the best omelets I've had. Cobb salad $14- there's half an avocado and half egg on top

    A friend of mine wanted to get together for lunch. She suggested Cupitol Coffee & Eatery. Glad we got to see her when we met here on a Saturday afternoon. I ordered the Cupitol Vegetarian salad. It tasted divine. I like how the green onions liven the spinach, mixed cabbage, kale and carrots. To top it off, the kitchen staff added lemon vinaigrette to the salad. Jospeh ordered a Cupitol burger with cheddar and a macchiato. My friend ordered the burger with fries as well. The service on the other hand, it did not stand out well. Joseph said that the baristas threw the macchiato on the counter while another barista came around to wipe some of the macchiato off the plate. No apologies. Sad because many of them looked young and seem like they did not to be there. Next to me, some customers bickered about the prices on the menu. They did not understand why the prices changed from the last time they came there. When taking my order, I felt that one of the baristas need to take some lessons on customer service. Sort of takes away the shine. Cupitol Coffee & Eatery looks like it draws in a local crowd. Families, friends, and dates come here. But they probably did not experience what we did.

    On our last morning in Chicago, we were wandering around and came upon Cupitol on E Illinois. Simple exterior with big windows peering into a quaint space to scoop up a quick bite. Cupitol is a coffee house/shop at its core, but also has the feeling of a small restaurant or eatery. Their menu features all the standard coffee shop bites and drinks from bagels to espresso and pastries, while also featuring a bit more from fresh lemonade, breakfast sandwiches, poached eggs, pancakes and more. You order at the counter and then they assign you a table, which is where your items are delivered. We went with lemonade, breakfast sandwich and country Benedict. The sandwich was bacon, egg and cheese on a warm and crispy croissant, delish! The Benedict was essentially biscuits and gravy topped with a poached egg. It was tasty, but had a few "flaws" from the egg being a bit overcooked and the biscuit being a tad tough. Still tasty though! Lemonade was tasty, but tart. Service was stellar from the counter to the food runners, everyone was friendly and helpful. Overall, we really enjoyed our time at Cupitol and have added it to our Chicago list!

    Great coffee and food. The ambiance was nice, great place to get your laptop to work. Service is quick if you want your items to-go.

    My friend said this was delish!

    Love this little neighborhood coffee shop. You order from the counter and the workers are always so nice. It's a nice big open space and we always seem to be able to find a table. They had fresh flowers on some of the counters for the holidays. Very pretty. The Matcha latte and chai drink were both very good. My friend had a croissant. She planned to only have a few bites and take the rest home, but it was so good. She finished the whole thing!

    The staff here were incredibly considerate and quick. I got up to grab a fork, and within two seconds, someone kindly asked what I needed and brought it over right away. I don't think I waited more than two minutes for my matcha, super efficient service! The matcha itself is more on the bitter side, but the chocolate croissant added just the right touch of sweetness to balance it out. I'm very picky when it comes to chocolate croissants (they're my go-to order), and this one was genuinely good. I do wish the chocolate was a bit more evenly spread, it was more concentrated on one side, but it wasn't a dealbreaker. I'd definitely recommend this place for a lovely breakfast with friends or family. Just maybe not ideal for studying, it's more of a cozy cafe vibe than a work spot.

    Gluten free pancakes
    Olivia B.

    Have stopped in Cupitol several times because I'm obsessed with this place. Awesome breakfast/lunch, fresh pressed juices (including the best fresh orange juice I've ever had), and tasty pastries. They have a ton of gluten free options and have excellent/quick service. The shroom omelette was the best omelette I've ever had and the eggs were so fluffy and delicious. The gluten free pancakes were also awesome and fluffy. They also have a great selection of coffee and smoothies. They have tons of seating inside and outside and I've never had to wait for a table. It's quiet and comfortable inside as well. Keep in mind they close shortly after lunch, so double check their hours before going.

    Cozy vibes at Cupitol Coffee & Eatery when I stopped by on a chilly November Saturday. The place was buzzing with people stopping in for coffee, breakfast, and pastries. There is an ample amount of seating, split for guests ordering a full breakfast and lounge seating for those grabbing a latte and pastry. Staff were welcoming and quick to take as well as deliver orders.

    Do they have an egg substitute option for vegans...like Just Egg? Or other vegan proteins?

    Is this a good place to study/work? Or more of a brunch place?

    It is! They have great tables for working on laptops etc. and they even have comfy chairs to work in as well. I know there are some outlets but I don't think they're at every table.

They have 5 floors were the fifth floor is their rooftop restaurant but there were no open tables. Staff mentioned they get several large groups. There's a pretty cool escalator that can be taken up with each floor being unique. The first floor will find their gift shop and cafe. The gift shop staff at register were excellent. They were very friendly and talkative. Def it made it more pleasant. This is also were I believe they have their coffee bean demos. The second floor had a cafe and express pizza - food to go order no alcohol. I ordered their ube iced latte with coconut milk was excellent and the cup was unexpected and cute souvenir. They did not have the affogato though it was listed in their paper menu. It's a little confusing to order. Also tried their whiskey barrel donut. This was a bit too sweet for me but not bad. Their 3rd and 4th floor I wish I would have seen before ordering on second floor. There they have flights, I would have liked to try their flights specifically their martini one. I'm only here for a short time of time allows May come back for that's Their 5th floor seems to be their most popular but they didn't have any openings aside being midweek to try. Tip: don't forget to provide your Starbucks app number for points.

There is a small market doenstairs with easy to grab pre prepared meals and wines as well as other snacks and beverages as well as trinkets and souvenirs. Since everything in the store is pretty expensive, I don't really purchase much. I have other family members gift a meal or two for me which was eggplant parmesean and I have to say that it was pretty tasty. The portion size i think is generous as well though it did make me really sleepy and nearly almost put me in a coma Nonetheless, it was pretty delicious. They have a wide variety of other goods to choose from as well downstairs. When you take the escalator or elevator to the upper floors, there are dry goods such as breads, tomato sauces, cheeses, bread, and much much more. The wine wall was pretty spectacular as well amd they divided the wines by region. The other part of the store has a stand alone restaurant towards the back which was packed. They also had these stations woth an open concept kitchen so you can see the chefs cooking as well as the bartenders preparing drinks. That was fun to witness as I walked by. It was very hustle bustle and they had one lounge style sit down eatery with waiters and another casual restaurant in the back with waiters. I highly recommend it if you have not gone. I think it's a Chicago must do!

It was early Sunday afternoon, and we were too large a group to arrive without calling ahead. You walk up a lovely old half-flight of stairs under an ornate ceiling. After a short wait, half of our party went elsewhere, and the remaining four of us were quickly seated. The front area is mainly a café, with maybe 10 seats at tables for two. Farther back is a hallway and a larger room with seating in booths and at high-tops for maybe 40, and maybe 6 more at a small bar. The staff is quick and friendly. The food is delicious and fresh and hot! And the music is loud and festive :-) We had the thin-cut savory palomillo steak, a generous serving, pounded to tenderness, served with classic wet black-beans and white rice, sweet soft platanos maduros plantain pieces, and some greens and tomato. We had a lovely colorful medium-sized Mojo Shrimp in tart garlic citrus mojo sauce, with sateed red onion crescents, tomato chunks, and parsley.
