"I went on a Wed @1p it was PACKED. Very loud. Very busy. Before going I didn’t realize that it was on the U of C campus. I ordered the grilled cheese, mushroom kale pot pie, a homemade chai. The latter 2 were m delicious. I would go again butavoid the busy student times. Also, parking sucks. There is absolutely nowhere to park. So good luck!"

The coffee and tea are good. Their space is always full though, so buy your drinks to go
Erik
The coffee and ambiance were fantastic. We ordered a beignet and received an extra one for free! However, they were somewhat dry and just average in taste.

This hidden gem on the University of Chicago campus is fantastic, located right next to a Frank Lloyd Wright house. I really enjoy the courtyard, and both the coffee and food are excellent. View menu

Breakfast was great. I'd prefer my eggs and ham warm, guess it's the style they make/serve it, next time I'll ask for it warmed up, but other than that great place, great hospitality and service!
Kris
We travel from Baltimore to Chicago every December and make a day of visiting this place for food and coffee before hanging out at the Seminary Co-op bookstore. Excellent coffee and great service.
Christen
Everything I've ever had here has been amazingly delicious; the coffee, pastries, lunch bowls. The atmosphere is inspired and overlooks the Robie House. Also, great art exhibits! All-around gem of a place. View menu

This lovely café at the University of Chicago is an ideal spot to grab a meal, enjoy a coffee, or unwind while catching up on some work. The food was outstanding, and they have a great variety of teas. It's truly a wonderful place!

This restaurant offers great coffee and delicious food and desserts. There are seating options both indoors and outdoors. However, it can get quite crowded, and the music is too loud for anyone who wants to study, work, or relax. I would return for the food and drinks, but not for the overall atmosphere.
