Winter!

We’re finally seeing some winter weather in the Windy City. Stop in and warm yourself with our homemade hot chocolate! Also, we will be opening at 7am (a little later than usual) on Monday, January 16th in observation of Martin Luther King Jr. Day. And, in case you have not heard, we are now brewing a different coffee from Passion House Coffee Roasters every month! We started our partnership with this local roaster last year and it’s proving to be a great success. Word travels fast in Wicker Park!
