funky cafe Great coffee and delicious shakes! The atmosphere is funky, and laid back and this is reflected in the employees. It's a cool place to go and hang out to have a drink. They have food, but it's nothing special and seems that their focus is more on the drinks.

Love it when I can afford it. I'm not going to lie: I love this little funky, cool coffee shop. The drink menu is HUGE and there are tons of creative, unique, DELICIOUS drinks on there.

Nothing special There is nothing spectacular here. The coffee and the foods are just OK. They try to create a bohemian style atmosphere, but the key word is try. This place does a lot of advertising so I think that's part of their popularity and of course the students from nearby Northwestern University flock here. I have definitely had better, I think it's more about the convenience than anything else.

Had a Mocha/Cappuccino milk shake that exceeded my expectations! The new owners are taking things to the next level!
