This coffee shop had me saying "oh my goddess!" This Chicago chain has popped of everywhere and is full of inventive flavor combinations. The place is cute with some indoor and outdoor seating, but seemed too loud for any work. The place was packed but the service was quick, perfect for dropping in before work. They have a huge assortment of pastries from classic blueberry muffin (which was delicious) to cinnamon cruffin (which may be too inventive for my taste), but is definitely fun to try. I also got a coffee which was decent Overall, I would definitely recommend trying it out. There are thing you may like and thing you might not, but is definitely an interesting experience.
Great food and service right next to the river. They offer nitro cold brew and great pastries, the espresso coffee cheesecake is a must its more like a cookie. The sandwiches are fresh and made with plenty of lunch meat. The santa monica is similar to a turkey sandwich with avocado and tomato. Indoor and outdoor seating as well as steps from the river to the sit and eat enjoying the views.

I've tried the vegan chia pudding and vegan & gluten free chocolate muffin. Chocolate muffin tastes like a devil's food cupcake. Moist and flavorful. Prices are reasonable. Would recommend stopping in or grabbing something to go.
Excellent coffee, delicious breakfast sandwich (just needed a little salt and hot sauce for my taste), super fast service, and a cool vibe right on the river. Tried the new raspberry pistachio cold brew and black sesame iced latte. Black sesame is the winner! Yum, needs a swirl to bring it all together but the nuttiness of the sesame adds so much to the coffee. Wow!
I recently discovered this cafe and loved the options of coffees they offer. It is really difficult to choose one and I am already waiting to go back again and try more of them. I ordered Nutella cappuccino and it was a perfect balance of sweetness, also avocado toast which was very filling and with good amount of toppings of micro greens and pickled onions. It is a very cute boutique cafe with good quality of space and ambiance, the service is quick and very clean cafe to hang around. A must visit if you like exploring coffees and cafés.
PASTRY HEAVEN!! The 3pm hunger attack hit and I HAD to have carbs. Not just any carb would do, while I would have preferred the Raspberry Pistachio Cronut, larger middles prevailed and guilt took over... banana pecan muffin it was! It didn't disappoint, especially bc the awesome team heated it up. The muffin paired perfectly with the Golden Milk (hot) - I don't drink coffee - It was so creamy, earthy, a little sweet and mainly healthy! Yay me for the win! The VIEWS of the Mart and other spots on the Chicago river are epic! Lots of seating to work (it's loud) or have a meeting where the rockin sound track will drown you out to your competitors sitting across the room!
Come here for the juices, remain for the avocado toast, and soak in the ambiance. Goddess and the Baker has it all. Their food is fresh and the portions are quite satisfying. It's a busy morning spot for commuters and conference attendees. Definitely get there early if you're looking to sit and enjoy your bites before the laptops come out and seats are available only for timeshare holders. The toughest decision was which in to get to remember the experience. Although I didn't get to take a slice of the rainbow cake with me on the plane, I did get the pin to remind myself to go back. If I wear the pin, people might ask if I bake, and I do not.
Great location, nice and roomy. Got the cake roll and the carrot cake that I always adore. This place just has such a beautiful selection of goods.
