Café Pisolino

10/10 experience! Considering most lattes around Chicago are $7+, I love how affordable the prices are here. I had an excellent latte and will be coming back to try their pastries. I guarantee the decor is unlike any coffee shop you've ever visited, so it's worth coming for the ambiance alone. The staff is also very friendly and welcoming :).

An old-school Italian café that somehow feels both historic and elegant. The lighting is very dim, and almost everything inside looks like it belongs to another era. There is a beautiful bar, plus a dramatic dining hall with incredibly high ceilings that looks perfect for an evening event. Menu at the end. 👉 House Latte ⭐️⭐️⭐️ ($6) Very fragrant, but a little too sweet for me. The coffee itself is aromatic with an almost soy milk-like nuttiness. It is smooth and not particularly bitter, though there is a slight instant coffee quality in the finish. 👉 Cold Brew ⭐️⭐️⭐️ ($5.50) Decent. It reminded me of a Starbucks cold brew, with a slightly dry and astringent finish. Nothing wrong with it, but not especially memorable. 👉 Tomato Tart ⭐️⭐️⭐️✨ ($8) A tomato and sour cream Danish. Pretty good overall, though the bottom had softened a little. The pastry was still flaky enough, and the combination felt almost like eating a pizza with a better crust.

My new favorite coffee shop in the Loop! I'm a huge fan of the Sea Salt Rosemary Maple Latte, and the in-house pastries are fresh and delicious. It's super convenient for those working downtown, and I love that there's plenty of space and seating when I want to knock out some work remotely. They also have a great outdoor patio, just in time for summer! Such a great addition to the area.

The loop needed an all day cafe like this! Both the coffee and the pastries are AMAZING. Also there’s good wifi if you need a cafe to work from the cafe

Absolutely unforgettable experience. This café is so much more than just a place to grab coffee… it’s an experience from the moment you walk in. The architecture and design of the space are incredibly unique and special. The food and coffee were absolutely delicious… Everyone was welcoming, attentive, and genuinely kind. Without a doubt, this is the best place to enjoy a coffee in Chicago. A beautiful atmosphere, amazing food, and outstanding hospitality. I can’t wait to come back!
