I was on my way home from an appointment and stopped in to give this place a try. I'd driven by it quite a few times and had it on my coffee bucket list. It's near Hotel Lincoln, Lincoln Park Zoo, where Wells and Clark meet. On a weekday late morning, there were a fair amount of people there. There was plenty of seating and the atmosphere was cozy and inviting. They have a good variety of specialty drinks as well as other food and drink items. There was one barista working, so I want to be consciousness of how that impacted the experience. The wait time to order was very slow and there was no one ahead of me. Seemed to be a generally slow-going process in making drinks in general. I purchased the poppyseed muffin and an iced latte. The muffin was "ok." It didn't have a particular flavor or taste. The latte was really good. I think their coffee game is on point. Next time I go, I may try some other bakery or food items. I will definitely be back for some coffee. (Also, prices were reasonable and the cafe itself is clean and well-kept.) read more

Came here after the Lincoln Park farmers' market! There was a long line but it moved quickly. I ordered an iced caramel latte and was very pleased with the taste. Even on a busy Saturday they had some tables available to sit! Baristas were very friendly. read more

Great pastries and coffee! Love the atmosphere and also close to Lincoln park. Super cool coffee shop!

My friend and I stopped in to Society Coffee for a quick business meeting and we had a great experience! I got the warmed Apricot Croissant which was the best combination of soft, fluffy, and crispy, and I also got a vanilla latte. The espresso was smooth and chocolatey with very low acidity and no bitterness. The space is so cozy and clean and welcoming, and the baristas are super friendly and kind. The music is quiet which is so refreshing because we could easily hear each other over it. It was a great space to have a business meeting and we will definitely be back! read more

Having been in the zoo, we wanted to find a little spot to warm up and have a coffee! The door/space wasn't stroller-friendly, so we split up the group to run in to get some coffee and snacks. The red velvet cookie was absolutely delicious, and we tried the seasonal Ember Mocha. It was nice but perhaps not as spicy as I was hoping, the mocha flavor came through the strongest. The bathroom facilities were clean and well-stocked and overall the service was efficient and very friendly! read more

Very cute store - we stopped in quickly to grab my bf a coffee after the farmer's market! Love all the lighting and the layout of the place. There's a lot of seating but it gets busy - we had to wait for a group to leave before we could grab a table that four of us. I tried my boyfriend's coffee and it was pretty good. He likes a plain latte with normal milk, but it wasn't sweet enough for me. Next time we go back I'll have to try one of the flavored drinks or a tea. Definitely recommend! read more

This is the cutest coffee shop. It has all the vibes and everything is beyond tasty. The woman working was so sweet to us.

The coffee wasn't bad, we stopped in when visiting the Farmers market and the place was packed but they kept the line moving. The cashier was extremely patient and answered our questions, they even gave a sample of the Golden Milk - which was made in house. We ended up trying the: - Nutella Latte - Golden Milk Latte They were good and reasonably priced for the area. read more

I stopped by here before heading to the farmers market and I must say what a great decision. The staff is amazing. They are so nice and very quick. The coffee is amazing as well. It has a nice roast that not too bitter. The food selection is amazing if you need a quick bite. The place also is beautiful on the inside. Working with local artist to decorate the walls is always a plus in my books. Over Society will be on of my go to places read more

So happy to have Society in the neighborhood! I have become a regular here since they opened and they are exactly what we needed here in Old Town. Society consistently is delivering amazing service and quality coffee and a beautiful space to hangout or work. Everyone here is also so friendly and welcoming! read more

I'll make this quick! The place overall is cute and it's nice to have a local (?) coffee shop in this area. Although I think it's a bit overpriced and my latte didn't have much flavor other than the flavor of "milk". I did get vanilla syrup too and couldn't even taste it. I would not come out of my way to come back. read more

Very friendly barista! Great specialty options. I got a Nutella latte which didn't have a lot of Nutella (or even chocolate) flavor but was still good. Also got a chia chocolate muffin which was a little small for the price but delicious. Love the photographs on the walls. They have decaf espresso which is always great. read more

Coffee tasted like ass, overpriced, LONG wait times, and rude staff. Not coming back. Definitely don't come on a Saturday- they can't handle the capacity with the farmers market traffic coming through. I followed up on my two (overpriced) drinks after 20 minutes (not an exaggeration at all, and not including the wait time to order) , they said it's still coming up in a few more orders, I told them a lot of people who were behind me got their drinks before me and their response was that some drinks take longer than others? Ok so you've been working on my rose latte for 20 minutes? Are you farming the coffee beans? Picking the roses? Such a bad excuse. Then I heard them talking crap about me for following up when they STARTED working on my drink, which ended up being superrr gross and watery and didn't even taste like the rose cardamom flavor I ordered. The decor, people, ambiance was basic Lincoln park + super loud music (the person taking orders couldn't even hear the customers...) read more

So glad there is another option in the area, especially since Elaine's stopped having consistent hours. Super cute and fresh, my latte was great, and it was very clean. I'm also a little surprised by all the reviews on here about being slow during the farmers market. I'm wondering if people have ever been out and about during busy events in Chicago....bring your own coffee and food if you're not ready to wait forever at a coffeeshop or restaurant. Lol. read more

Stopped in here randomly for an afternoon coffee. Got an iced americano and it was 10/10. It has the perfect amount of ice and the coffee is just the right bitterness, but not burnt. They also had so many different pastries and snack foods. Prices are very reasonable for where it's located. Service was fast and the ambiance is very chill, but the space is small. So, not ideal for bigger groups, but perfect for a stop and go coffee. read more

This place has a cute, modern vibe. Prices are pretty average for the area. There's a 10% neighbor discount if you live nearby. I tried out the Farmers' Market Latte with lavender and vanilla and would recommend it. My main complaint is that the service is PAINFULLY slow. I stopped by at 8:30 on a Saturday morning and waited 20 minutes for a latte. read more

Get the leek and Parmesan danish. Great latte. Staff is super helpful and authentically friendly (not fake). If I lived around here, this would be my staple. read more

Cute indoor space to work or meet with friends. Staff was friendly and I thought prices were fair. My cortado was basic but far from bad. Nice music too! read more

Pricey for what you get, my latte was $8.50 and was mediocre, but it's very cute inside. Lots of art & they support/promote local artists as well. Postcards, tote bags, prints, etc for sale. read more

Service was not great. Very unwelcoming and looked mad that I was even ordering. Matcha was okay, not great. It was cute in there, just wish it had better overall vibes. read more

Solid coffee. I generally rate a coffee shop based on the drip coffee. I prefer a darker roast and they have a good one, called Robot _____. I forgot the full name, but it's good and chocolatey. Not a French roast but full bodied. The service is great as the barista was able to give me a description of their roasts to help me decide. I'll probably go back for a macchiato in the afternoon. Fair prices. read more

Very cute place, very pleasant staff. Terrible prices for the quality. Ordered a Nutella latte hoping it would have a chocolate flavor. Tasted so bitter and overwhelmingly strong with not a hint of chocolate. The Nutella croissant was good, but not worth it for being more expensive than the terrible tasting drink. read more

I've been here a couple times and both times the food and coffee has been underwhelming. Not too expensive but not worth the price. Kind staff, cute inside. It's worth checking out if you live nearby and want a spot to read, study, or sit and watch. They have art you can purchase throughout which is cool. I want to like it really badly but the quality of the menu item is subpa read more

Service not great or welcoming. Almost felt like I was bothering them when I was placing my order.

Fantastic vibe, food and drinks. Highly recommended. It is filled with arts. Great place to hang out with friends.

Honestly, the customer service was just bad. I work in food myself so I understand however, she was just flat out rude. Then after getting my drink which was a nutella latte (how could this taste nothing but good), it literally tasted like I just got black coffee with some cream. The coffee was ass and so was the customer service. Disappointing because I live so close! Going back to my og, dunkin read more

Fantastic ambience! Feta dill scone was amazing. I really recommend their Turkish coffee.
