Vegan coffee cake donut hit the spot! My husband had a fantastic Bull’s Eye bagel sandwich. Coffee was terrific, of course!
Had breakfast here three times while in Chicago. Bagel sandwiches are good. Pastries are very tasty and well priced as well. Recommend for people staying at Hotel Blake. Limited seating.
I had great expectations about this place and the coffee but I was kinda disappointed. Do not get me wrong… it’s not a bad place and actually they made a pretty good espresso. However, I got the White Mocha Latte and it was very basic. I was expecting more flavors.
Amazing vibes. I walked in feeling like they already knew exactly what I needed. The entire staff had great energy and it put me in such a great mood. I had a bagel sandwich and coffee. This is honestly the BEST bagel sammy I have ever had. Definitely beats Gotham bagels.This location is good for grab and go. Not the best for if you want a coffee meetup with a work/business partner.Good for beautiful city views if you sit outside!If you’re near here, there’s a lot of coffee options, this one is worth skipping the Starbucks train forsure.
Caffeine is the true [email protected] ‘s super power is providing the South Loop with lots of espresso, bagels, and pastries. This Latina owned coffee shop offers a perfectly curated coffee menu with flavors like lavender honey (pink latte art with flowers), blackberry dark chocolate (blue latte art), hazelnut cayenne (Hero to-go cup), matcha (mason jar), and many many more in both hot and iced options. They also have delicious bagel sandwiches like the amazing Smooth Criminal - bagel of choice, goat cheese, fig jam, Monterey Jack cheese, basil, siracha, & egg). Plus they collab with other women-owned and small Chicago businesses like @[email protected] collabI don’t give a sip?But I will take multiple sips from my coffee from @herocoffee ! Had to stop by one of my favorite Chicago coffee shops one last time before leaving this city. Their lattes and bagels never disappoint. First discovered them through a @grabbdapp collab and got to try many items. My favorite was by far the Smooth Criminal bagel (swipe!) with fig jam, a fried egg, sriracha, Monterey Jack cheese, basil, and goat cheese on a cheddar herb bagel. Today I paired it with an ice caramel latte. Be sure to order ahead with @ritual_chi @ritual_co to avoid the long line of this busy spot!
We were staying at the Hotel Blake and not knowing this place existed, had breakfast there on our first day. Thank goodness we found this coffee bar. The selection of different types of bagels is good, but the selection of fillings is amazing. Plus you can have coffee any way you like it!The staff is extremely friendly and helpful.We ate there every day, even getting up early on the day we left so we could pay a final visit before making our way to the airport.
Love the breakfast sandwiches, they are so delicious. The drinks are really good and the service is awesome. Got the matcha mushroom seasonal drink and it was so tasty. I highly recommend this place.
Love what HERO does in the community. Great coffee, bagels, pastries. We had iced tea, specialty coffee drinks, bagel sandwiches, muffins, pastries over the course of our few days staying nearby.
Oh my goodness! Mad love! We found a hidden gem. My coffee was perfect. My breakfast sandwich was excellent (everything bagel, egg, hummus, tomato, onion). The person who took our order was nice and helped me navigate the avocado import problems. They’re not doing fine in right now, which is totally get . It’s a small place. The person who made our drinks knocked it out of the park in terms of quality and skill. They were also super nice. I felt welcome, like I live around the corner and go there everyday. Thanks! We’ll be back I hope!!
I love this place. The drinks are delightful and the atmosphere is pleasant and relaxing, there is a nice private patio that you wouldn't expect. The baristas are very kind and get to know the regulars that come in. I stop by every time I'm in the area.
