I loved this little coffee joint in the middle of a busy Chicago street. It was very close to the subway station and was kinda hip. Nice and cozy, good service. You can walk up and order a latte and wait. Limited seating bar style...Read More

I was debating between 3 or 4 stars.Location is great.Atmosphere not much, there not enough setting. And what they have is very uncomfortable.The service is okay, mechanical, plain, no smiles, connection, etc. I guess is what we should expect in a coffee chain..?My 16oz latte...Read More

I was recommended this coffee shop by a friend while visiting Chicago, and it turned out to be a charming, cozy spot despite its small size. The iced coffee was solid, delivering the standard quality you’d expect. The Danish was a pleasant surprise—flaky and flavorful.I...Read More

My partner and I recently stopped by Intelligentsia Coffee in Chicago and had a great experience. We ordered a couple of flat whites and tried a few pastries—all of it was really tasty. The coffee was smooth and well-made, and the pastries were fresh and...Read More

This place is overrated. We were on a day trip to Chicago and went in the morning with the mindset of kick-starting our day on a good note. The person collecting our order was way too expression-less, as if he was just there to do...Read More

Great third wave coffee! They offer three single origin options for pour over and even one for espresso. Espresso came with a soda back, as it should. The coffee was excellent. Their baked goods come from a nearby bakery. We tried the chocolate and regular...Read More

I usually go to the Lakeview or Wicker Park location, but since I started working in the Loop this summer I paid a visit to this Intelligentsia location for my morning coffee ☺️☕️. I had a chance to try the Avena latte, which wasn’t too...Read More

We came here for an afternoon coffee break, and it was lovely! The service was quick, the prices were reasonable, and the ambiance was very laidback and relaxing. They had limited indoor seating, so we sat outside and enjoyed the beautiful summer day in Chicago....Read More

Cafe with brewed-to-order coffee and the usual spread of espresso-based drinks. It’s pricier than most cafes ($5 something cents for a 12oz black) but they brew-to-order rather than having a container of the day’s drip coffee. Served extremely hot so let it cool off a...Read More

When I first visited Intelligentsia about 6 years ago while traveling, I was blown away. When I came back to visit, another stop was high on my list of things to do. As a coffee lover, I enjoy checking out Intelligentsia, key representation of third...Read More

Maybe I’m not a big fan of this coffee shop’s coffee bean types, but it was not worth trying. I would instead get my coffee at Starbucks and earn stars for purchasing… I’m very disappointed about this coffee shop’s Americano. By the way, it’s not...Read More

Well, they are definitely true to their form of being an Australian coffee experience - unfortunately they exported Australian customer service and elitist coffee culture to the Americans. Poor service and their same beans taste better at home than at their store. Add to that...Read More

Go to the Starbucks across the street. The employees here are very rude. They charged me for a croissant, then told me they can’t heat it up because the oven is broken. I asked for a refund, and they started arguing with me because I...Read More

Pour over coffee is very expensive ($7) and does not taste good. They don't even have dark roast. Even the latte is mediocre. They don't even run power strips from outlets for people. They take up valuable window seating with sugar and coffee stuff. Very...Read More

I opted for a single origin coffee, yet upon its arrival, I found it to be disappointingly lacking in depth, resulting in a diluted flavor profile devoid of its anticipated complexities. Unfortunately, the steep price point did not align with the quality received, leaving me...Read More
