    Chai tea
    Arianne P.

    Ralph's Coffee was pretty busy when we stopped by, which wasn't surprising given how small the café is. We were lucky enough to grab the last available table. I ordered the chai latte and really enjoyed it, while my friend felt her drink was just okay and could have been better. Service was quick and efficient despite the crowd. It's a nice spot to take a break if you're in the area, though seating is definitely limited.

    Stopped by Ralph's Coffee and ordered a mocha. It was decent, but nothing particularly memorable. The café itself has a really nice atmosphere and stylish vibe, though it was very crowded when I visited. Overall, it's a pleasant spot if you're already in the area, but I wouldn't go out of my way to come back just for the coffee.

    Great experience at Ralph's coffee! So cutely decorated and the latte was perfect. Recommend for a quick visit for a break on your day out!

    Ralph's Coffee is nestled into the first floor of Ralph Lauren in Chicago. This is a busy spot on the weekends so expect a but of a wait. While the line was a little long, staff moves through orders quickly. Their menu is very straightforward with coffee and tea drinks, pastries, and a couple of other non-caffeinated drink options. I wanted to order a latte which they only offer vanilla or chocolate flavors for outside of the seasonal special. When I visited, they had a Salted Honey Cold Foam Latte. They were able to make this flavor hot for me and just removed the cold foam. I really enjoyed the flavor and all drinks came with milk art. My husband got the Chai Latte which was made from a concentrate and tasted okay. They have a ton of branded merch on display that you can browse or purchase. The inside truly felt like a cute cafe. Highly recommend making a stop in when in the area.

    It's so cute and quant inside. It is my first time trying Ralph's Coffee. Not only is it aesthetically pleasing the coffee was really good. I got a vanilla latte and it didn't disappoint. Everyone inside was very nice. They don't have an extensive menu but it's not needed. I would definitely stop by again. I recommend to anyone visiting Chicago.

    I'll be honest, I had very low expectations for the coffee, I only wanted to go because I love the clothing brand but this was amazing coffee! The coffee was strong but still tasty and came out quick. I would recommend not staying to drink because it is a small shop attached to the clothing store so it fills up quickly. If I lived closer I'd become a regular here. The prices aren't bad either, the croissant is $6 and it is a huge croissant so you'll get your money's worth. The coffees were also only around $6-7 depending on if you want a milk substitute.

    Ralph's is a great spot to shop, or enjoy coffee and ice cream. The decor is fantastic, and it creates a comfortable setting for relaxing and having a good conversation. I especially love their soft-serve ice cream. It's a pleasant surprise and definitely worth trying. After finishing your coffee, you can walk right into the shop and pick up some Polo pieces, which makes the whole experience feel seamless. It's a unique place where you can enjoy a little bit of everything in one visit

    Super cute spot. Came by on a Sunday afternoon and there was a bit of a line but it moved quickly. I opted for the lemonade ($6) and found it quite refreshing in the summer heat. A great choice for later in the day. The vibe of the place is great, and it's located at the front of the Ralph Lauren store so you can catch a glimpse of the shopping. There were a handful of tables but we took ours today. A pleasant experience overall.

    Of course I have to visit a coffee shop that is all over social media! The inside of this coffee shop gave everything Ralph Lauren the design. The aesthetics were absolutely perfect. The young lady who took my order had a smile which always goes a long way for me. If you like coffee, you will like their bean . If you are not a coffee fan and you really like super sweet coffee, this may not be the place for you.

    I love this place! A darling cafe inside Ralph Lauren. A menu full of delicious coffees, teas, and pastries. I was taking a morning walk from my hotel, and just happened upon this place. I asked what was the best on the menu given it was my birthday, and was recommended by Trinity to try the Oat Milk Draft Latte and add maple. WOW! Simply divine! Outstanding! My coffee was creamy, and slightly sweet. Perfection in a cup. In addition to the delicious coffee, the pastries are also very well made. My plain toasted croissant with a side of honey was flakey and buttery. Also a divine representation. While chatting with the employees, I learned that there are several Ralph's around the nation. Good to know, since I fell in love with my order. I will be seeking those out... I ended up coming here four days in a row. I did not encounter a line with the exception of my last day. That was a wait of about 20 minutes. There are several tables inside, but when there's a line/crowded you would have to take your order to go. There is a 45 minute time limit on the tables, however. Thank you Trinity for your recommendation! When I'm back in Chicago, I'll definitely stop by.

    I recently visited the Ralph Lauren Coffee Shop and tried their Cortado--it was absolutely delicious. The coffee was perfectly balanced, rich, and smooth. The service was excellent as well. The server who helped me was incredibly kind, friendly, and welcoming, which made the experience even better. I was hoping to try some of their pastries, but unfortunately, by around 6 PM everything was sold out. On the bright side, I guess that says a lot about how good they must be! I'll definitely come back earlier next time to give them a try. Overall, a lovely coffee shop with great coffee, wonderful service, and a cozy atmosphere. Looking forward to my next visit.

    Finally made it to Ralph's Coffee, and it definitely lived up to the anticipation. We arrived just in time, right before a long line started to form, which made the experience even better. We ordered two iced vanilla lattes topped with brown sugar cold foam. The balance of sweetness from the foam paired perfectly with the smooth espresso, refreshing and not overly sugary. The baristas were friendly, efficient, and professional, which kept everything running seamlessly even as it got busier. The space itself is aesthetically pleasing, classic, and effortlessly chic with the rest of the store filled with RL clothing. Overall, a nice coffee experience that combines quality drinks with a polished atmosphere. Definitely worth stopping by if you're in the area.

    Fun Ralph Lauren inspired Polo bear coffee shop that takes you back into time. Nice selection of pastries and espresso based drinks. Chill out in their cafe or shop the Polo store. Great for fans of the Ralph Lauren brand plus lots of cute polo bears!

No one fits and you end up standing next to a revolving door that tries to hit you every time someone comes in.

Be ready to wait because for some reason everyone decided this was a hot spot. Forget getting there after 9am if you want to wait less than 45-60 minutes. The tables are jammed together, the service is SLOW and the food is expensive and really not all that special. Save time and money and go somewhere else.

So that was neat and I tried both. I had a chocolate croissant, which was absolutely delicious.

Cake donuts were actually pretty solid here; the Blueberry Cake Donut was the best item, super soft and moist with a good amount of berries throughout. The Pistachio Cake Donut for some reason was texturally firmer and drier than the other. Unfortunately, the fried donuts were all misses. The dough was just really dense and none of the toppings really hit. The Glazed Donut just made me sad that the dough was bad and the bacon on the Maple Bacon Donut wasn't crispy, so you got a cold, chewy, greasy bite that wasn't super pleasant. The chopped dough pieces in the Apple Fritter were also oddly firm instead of soft. For a place with rave reviews, I was pretty bummed by the donuts, but maybe the fried chicken sandwich is where it's at.

We ordered the Vaca Frita, which is basically pan-fried shredded beef. Honestly, it was quite good -- you get protein and fat from the beef, plus some fiber from the vegetables. Instead of the fried potatoes that are so common in American meals, it came with fried plantains. It also included a mix of rice and black beans, which became savory and satisfying once everything was combined together. This is exactly what I mean when I say Cuban food works well for a Chinese palate: a balanced meal should have everything -- carbs, fiber, protein, and fat. My friend also ordered the Cafechera, which was something quite special: thinly sliced steak with a roasted aroma from coffee grounds. It was my first time trying anything like that, and I really liked it. Apparently, the leftover grounds from my pour-over coffee can do more than just sit in the fridge absorbing odors from now on. I did not try the Steak Chimichurri. My friend had been walking all day and was starving, and the dish disappeared from the table in less than five minutes. I suppose that counts as a compliment to the chef. The Shrimp Ceviche Salad was also very good, though this may be one of those dishes that can confuse some Chinese diners at first because the acidity is quite strong. Back home, we are more used to salads with creamy dressings, Thousand Island, or vinaigrette. A dressing dominated by lemon or lime juice can be difficult for some of my companions who have only recently arrived in the US, but personally, I loved it, haha. The restaurant is not very large, but it has both tables and bar seating. Whether you just want to grab a quick sandwich or come by in the evening for a drink, it feels like a very good fit. Unfortunately, we did not get to have a drink that day because the restaurant was closing early for Independence Day. All the tableware in my photos was also in pickup mode, which was a shame -- no chance to take any pretty food photos this time.
