They had me at freddo cappuccino. Just coming off of a trip to Greece, I was happy to see the freddo on the menu while I was searching for a breakfast/coffee spot near Navy Pier. It's basically a popular Greek iced coffee drink, which is very creamy and foamy and I fell in love with it during my time in Athens. This was within walking distance to my hotel and Navy Pier. Upon walking in, I was delighted to see the hip, open space filled with high top tables and cozy seating areas. The brick, the wood, the whole decor and servicescape is a vibe! I loved it. Customer service was quick and friendly as I ordered a freddo cappuccino and a ham and cheese croissant. I found a nice little cozy spot on a big, cushy chair to enjoy my breakfast. I enjoyed my coffee a lot and my croissant was also good and nicely toasted. It's such a great spot to just hang out and didn't break the bank at under $15! Highly recommend a stop here. read more

They up-charge for using credit cards, but today when I wanted to pay cash they would not accept it. So they should just raise menu prices. This is deceitful. I do like the food and the employees are really good - but management needs to know this practice is not good. read more

Love the coffee and ambiance here. Staff is great too (efficient and friendly.) That said, they really have the worst order experience. Any more than 3 people in line and it's a nightmare. Also, idk who said this place was good for kids...it definitely is not good for families/kids. There's no room for you, your kids, your dog, and a full stroller. This ain't Naperville. read more

I was pleasantly surprised at how good this place was. Usually food by Navy Pier is touristy and just basic, but this place was delicious. We came in a huge group, more than 30 people, staggered. I thought it would take a long time for the food to come out, but it came out pretty quick. The burgers are especially good. Their smoothies and drinks were good. The seating area is very nice and great for large groups. I will definitely be returning. read more

I stopped by here for a cup of coffee! They were the earliest to open in the area. The shop is comfortable for pulling out your laptop to work or playing their chess board. The open window allows you to look into the bakery too. read more

Have only had takeout from here but it always hits the spot. The avocado toast is delicious. I love their coffee, it's always brewed well and you can tell that they use good quality beans. read more

So, I am in sales and made a trip up to Chicago to visit one of my larger rail customers. I asked my contact to give me a suggestion for breakfast catering. he immediately came back with Cupitol. Said they have the absolute BEST croissant in the city! (I later learned they bake them all in-house!). I went on their website, selected a bunch of great things, and noticed they offered a carafe of Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice; Check! Carafe of coffee; Check! Big box of pastries, Order of 6 sandwiches, Done! More drinks, etc. Great service and support. The made it EASY. Cost was very fair for what we needed. Pastries were stellar. I am taking the extra chocolate croissants home with me. Alex, Alexios, Israel- Thank you all very much for the stellar service and support today! Was tremendous. I'm doing the same next visit to Chicago. read more

I love Cupitol! They have come a long way in improving their menu. Earlier, the menu used to be limited but now they have expanded their menu. They now have a long list of coffees, teas and hot chocolate. They also have a log list of cakes and pastries. Their Cortado and Nutella cafe are my favorite. Amongst the pastries, I am a big fan of their almond croissant. They now also have a long list of alcoholic beverages and desserts. I love their mini tarts. The place has a lot of seating. It can get crowded on weekends. They don't have any service per se as you have to go and order at the counter and then go pick up your order once they call your name. Overall, a great place for brunch to casually get coffee. read more

We stopped here early on a weekday morning for a quick breakfast. It was bustling with diners and to-go orders. Looked like a fun place to catch up with friends or work for a while. They had a wide selection of fresh pastries and we got a Pistachio almond croissant. It had sooo much filling and was soooo delicious!!! We got a shroomed omelette plate, it came with hash browns and toast. Everything tasted fresh and good. We also got a two egg breakfast platter, came with sweet potato hash, toast and chicken sausage - all very good. It was a lot of food overall and we enjoyed it!! Would definitely recommend this place! read more

Found this place through Yelp and it did not disappoint. The service is quick, efficient and all around great! Staff was welcoming and provided great customer service. The place is busy so finding a place to sit is a bit difficult. I got an iced vanilla latte and it satisfied my craving. I also got the falafel burger and wow!!! This is the first time I have a falafel patty that doesn't fall apart. The burger was flavorful, crispy bread, fresh veggies, and everything I wanted in a veggie burger. If you're in the area and want a quick bite, I highly recommend checking this place out! read more

Went here for coffee and the service was subpar. The cashiers barely look you in the eye, scream neeeeeeext, roll their eyes when you ask them to correct an order that they should have clarified to begin with. So sick of all these spots with terrible service. read more

I order from here very often and today they "swapped" the original croissant with a MEAT croissant. I do not eat meat and no one told me this when I picked up my order and it was not noted anywhere. I bit into it thinking it was a butter croissant, but it had meat stuffed inside. I don't feel like I can trust this place anymore. They swapped my croissant last week as well with another sweet croissant and I didn't realize until I got home. That is quite frustrating because if they didn't have the one I wanted they should tell upon pick up, but they didn't and still charged me for it... read more

First time in Chicago and was looking for some coffee and a small bite. Came across this shop on Yelp. Upon entering I was greeted by the cashier and she had a really upbeat welcoming vibe that I loved! Food wise, I ordered the avocado wrap and added bacon (highly recommend) super good and cooked perfect I got the Nutella latte which tasted just like the name lol. I'm a big coffee drinker, I didn't taste much coffee in this drink but I'd just add extra espresso read more

Delicious, so many gluten free options. Quick service. I had the sweet potato bowl and it was so so good.

Came here this morning to start the day with my sister and mom! They've both been plenty of times but I've never been before. I got a cold brew with vanilla and oat milk, my sister got an iced black tea, and my mom got an iced chai latte with almond milk. It's really cute in here and we didn't have to wait super long for our drinks. We all really liked our drinks, the cold brew was delish and I didn't feel too overly jittery after which is a plus for cold brew. Would definitely love to come back next time I'm in Chicago! read more

The Nutella milkshake was delicious, and beautiful, and the decor and vibes are great. My friends loved their coffees. However, I do NOT recommend the mac n cheese - the noodles were much too firm, and the parsley was an uncomfortable texture mixed in and didn't add any taste. read more

I ordered a white chocolate pumpkin scone and was given a pecan maple scone. I questioned it when he handed it to me, but took his word. Eating it, there was no doubt it was pecan and maple, with no hint of pumpkin or white chocolate. The pecan maple scone was really good, so I enjoyed it and as a courtesy let them know on the way out. His reaction was to tell me I was wrong. He was friendly about it, but really? I know what I just ate. read more

I like this place! I've been here a couple of times, every time I tried different things. Lox bagel was not the best in my opinion, I loved the ham and cheese sandwich and classic breakfast! Also their juices are great along with latte. My favorite dish here is Mascarpone Berry pancakes - must have! read more

Have ordered takeout there a few times... nothing to brag about. Food is decent, so if you're in the area and craving eggs, then this is a good place. However, I likely won't be ordering takeout anymore as they keep running out of things. Before they would just swap something else and that was ok. Recently however I ordered a salad and paid extra for grilled salmon on it. They were out of salmon and said they'd refund me for it. Of course they never did, so it's just not worth the hassle ordering takeout anymore. Eating in is probably your best bet. read more

After hoping off of the plane we searched a good place to have breakfast and Yelp led us here. Being from out of town, the parking is a nightmare. This is located in the middle of the city so only parking, at least that we could find, was in the garage which cost us $38 alone. The restaurant itself was pretty slow when we arrived and we were helped right away. Staff wasn't necessarily the friendliest and the girl assisting us had to repeat herself because her volume was very very low. I got the Nutella latte and sticky buns. The latte I ordered was pretty good and the sticky buns were even better. I wish I had more of them or ordered a side with it though because it wasn't super filling, but they were tasty. Service was quick, food was good and it seemed like a nice place to have coffee and maybe study or get some work down. Overall a pretty neat place. read more

Ordering at the counter is rushed because it's like they have a huge menu and it feels like you should sit down to consider it all. Also, selecting a table at the counter is very stressful and I think they should rethink how that works! Ham and cheese croissant was good, pretty standard. Iced chai latte wasn't great. read more

I am all about good service and this wasn't it. The girl who took my order was cold, short. Anyways.. the avocado smoothie was amazing and the was well made and delicious read more

Stopped by this spot because it was walking distance from my hotel in Chicago and I'm glad I did. Beautiful layout with plenty of table seating and a lounge area. I ordered hot chocolate and buttermilk pancakes with a side of sausage. It was all pretty good. Quick service and friendly staff! Great place to get some work done as well, I ended up staying for a little longer to finish up some emails. read more

The space is surprisingly big and has a variety of seating options to choose from. Their menu is seriously astronomical--- you can have breakfast, lunch, or dinner at any time of day. I ordered the Country Benedict and while it did not look like a pretty meal, it was really really good. The pork sausage gravy was super milky and paired very well with the biscuits and poached eggs. Their pastry section was less impressive in comparison, and I would skip the Nutella Tart. read more

Wow wow wow, who knew breakfast lines could be so long on a Sunday morning?! We waited a solid 20 minutes before ordering our meals and could tell by all the people around that there was something special about this place. My Greek salad was deliciously refreshing and I tried to stay on theme by ordering the spanakopita, but unfortunately they were out..., that's when I decided to order some desert and go crazy with tiramisu rather than their crowd favorite croissants. I was glad I did! The tiramisu was great and I'm always a sucker for one! read more

The place was pretty busy and had a great vibe, huge coffee shop with a lot of indoor outdoor seating. The service was looked very fast but I kept waiting for my to go order which apparently was ready and left for pick up on a side table. They never bothered to tell me that the order was ready and I ended up waiting for my avacado toast for a long time until I went up to the counter to ask for it and they were like oh its on that table The coffee was good but was pretty disappointed with avacado toast, it was oozing with the oil from its pesto and there was barely any salt, lacked flavor. Wouldnt come back for food but will definitely stop by to pick up coffee. read more

Coffee was really good. Inside was clean and had nice amount of seats. Our order was taken and delivered to us quickly.

The location was extremely busy, the staff was young with a chaotic vibe but they got the job done. The black coffee was 10/10. We had the CBH (corned beef hash) which was delicious. It didn't have much potato but the corned beef was very fresh. The European (a parfait) was sweet with honey and just as delicious for the eyes as it was for the belly. The homemade granola was wonderful. read more

Long line to order. Gravlax and eggs is over priced. Not a lot of salmon even though it was good. Small amount of eggs and 2 slices of tomatoes. The place is a bakery but they served me two slices of stale multigrain bread that tasted like card board. Disappointing. The jam was flavorless too. The avocado smoothie was good and my friend liked her omelet but the potatoes tasted bitter. read more

The pistachio butter croissant was extremely flaky and delicious. There was some sort of filling inside (not completely filled) which was creamy and rich--tasted like a custard with a thinner consistency. My husband pretty much devoured the breakfast sandwich--fried egg, bacon, cheese on a croissant. I enjoyed my Nutella latte. I forgot to ask for almond milk which is my own fault. I wish I would've given it a stir before I started drinking it because I think the Nutella was at the bottom and as I drank it, that's where all the sweetness and flavor was. Great place to go for a quick bite or to grab something to go. (QR code at the counter to scan and view food menu items) read more

Great spot. They have dedicated spaces for working on laptops and lots of options for seating. Good coffee, good food, good vibe.

Stopped by after seeing a long line out the door and i'm glad I did! Their brunch and all day menus looked fantastic but I was feeling more of a brunch vibe, so I ordered the berry mascarpone french toast with a side of crispy hash browns and hot tea. The looseleaf tea came in a large pot and was pretty strong but i like it that way! The french toast was fluffy, very flavorful, and the perfect balance of sweet and savory. The crispy hash browns came in a huge plate and probably were meant for sharing but oh well! I ate them all and no regrets. The lounge seating was comfortable and overall this place is great for students or professionals to get some work done on the weekends! read more
