It is really cute in here, love that you can see all the equipment in the back. Service was great, though they did forget my dad's drink and needed a reminder!

My sister got a coconut milk elderberry drink with popping boba and loved it, my mom got a chai, my brother had a plain black cold brew, my dad had an iced black tea. We all loved what we ordered!

The bagel was perfectly toasted. The elote cream cheese you need a little bit more than they give but less than 2 containers. The spread has a kick too it and corn in it... Delicious. A few tables, couch area, and bar stools. Filtered water option for free. Paid street or lot parking. Beautiful art inside and has a nice chill vibe. I also saw that they do yoga on the roof with feea and sign up... I would check them out again but I wish they had a little more outside seating on the first level. Maybe next time I'll try the roof but my knees weren't working today.

Three door entries for accessibility. If this place was crowded it would be tighter. I always order drip coffee and today was no different except I had a wait a couple of minutes for light roast which was fine. The coffee is tasty but not the best that I've ever had. I didn't like that I had to move the medium sized bathroom garbage can to shut the door as they were using it as a stopper. But the bathroom is gender neutral and very clean. Quiet and clearly friendly environment. Street metered parking but not expensive. I worked return here because of the seating and historic window vibe. The one in downtown oak Park is kinda tucked away but the outside tables in nice weather is a vibe.

We started the process by going to their local headquarters and sampling the different styles. Sam and Kelly were very knowledgeable about all the products and made great recommendations. They provided us with a deluxe coffee bean grinder, a two-station coffee maker, and a two-station espresso machine. We have been open for almost a year now and we have never had any problems with their equipment or coffee products. They do have an emergency technician on call to stop by immediately if we ever have any issues. Lastly and most importantly, our customers absolutely love their coffee and it's one of the reasons why we've been able to be so successful in such a competitive market. Coffee is everything in our business and we made sure we picked the best around. It's always a pleasure dealing with Sam and Kelly from Philosophy Coffee. They often stop by our restaurant just to say hello and check on things. They don't just sell you a product and disappear, they are always proactive and really do things right away.

The establishment has a chill atmosphere and the owner was so incredibly friendly. Even though we were out of town, we were immediately invited to a small event they were having the next day and asked about our days in a manner that reflected genuine interest. I wish this could be my local coffee shop, you're so lucky if this is! Their unique offering was a wonderful selection of coffee and a delicious array of Colombian pastries. We ordered an empanada, a churro donut, almojabana, and the pan de bono. I'm vegetarian so I was very happy to see such a wide number of options for me! The churro donut was delicious and cinnamony - if you like sweet breakfasts, definitely get this! I really enjoyed the almojabana and the pan de bono. I liked the pan de bono so much, I even took a picture of the crumb to share with my mother, who is Colombian! Truly, I could have eaten 5 of the pan de bono because they tasted just like the homemade one's my abuela would make when she visited.

Great sunlight from the floor-to-ceiling windows and abundance of seats, this shop would be a great place for a coffee date or to get some work done.

There is street parking but no seating except for a small bench outside. It was hot outside so I wanted a cold drink, so I went with their Chocolate and Pistachio Iced Coffee. Unfortunately, this wasn't it for me. I couldn't even taste the chocolate and pistachio...it was like garnish on the cup more than anything. I tasted the espresso shots briefly but it was all milk afterwards. Since I got there in the afternoon, I decided on their Breakfast Sandwich for a late lunch. This one hit the spot for me! Bacon, soft scrambled eggs, caramelized onions and sriracha...delicious! For my pastry, I chose the Guava Cheese Bread. It's like a bigger and denser version of pao de queijo. Really liked how the tartness of the guava jam complimented the savoriness of the bread. A little bummed the drink wasn't a home run for me because that's mostly the reason I came but I'll give it another chance! Also, it's a dog friendly place so that's always a plus for me!
