This place could be great, but it consistently falls short. Every couple of months, after enough time has passed since my last visit, I get lured back by the funky midcentury-mod decor, the great photos on the wall, and the high-quality coffee. Then I sit down for a few minutes, and I remember why I don't come here all the time. The place is dingy all around the edges, with wobbly tables, spills left uncleaned for a bit too long, a few flies hovering near the overfull trash cans, etc.It breaks my heart, because the concept is so cool and the place is right in my neighborhood. If they could combine the look and taste of this place with the simple attention to detail found in every friggin' Starbucks, they'd have a real winner.

Love the coffee and service was friendly. Had the quiche for breakfast. A good choice. The cappuccino was spot on.

Nice place, good espresso. Pastries looked good, but didn't try.

Staying at the Drake, so this was my only choice for grabbing a quick breakfast. They were out of quiche and hard boiled eggs multiple days in a row. When I asked why cashier said they no longer carried those items...but they are still on the menu. No protein food options. If you are looking for food, don't stop here.

A little but of Italian style in Chicago, perfect for a quick breakfast. Located in the lobby of the famous Drake hotel and just beside the water tower. Load up on your coffee hit before attacking the shops.

i like the location of this Lavazza as it is very near by my hood....but their coffee wasn't special..I tried cappuccino...I've had better one like at Elaine which is my favorite in Chicago so far...It is a convenient location if you stay at Drake or shopping near by. They have decent variety of panini/breakfast menu include smoothies.

I enjoy very much this place for light lunches and for the Afogatto with vanilla ice cream.

Very good coffee, but way too pricy if you take a table!

Fantastic as always...I always get 2 cops off drinking chocolate. It's perfect on a cold Chicago day.
