I absolutely love Intelligentsia Coffee, and have been patronizing this location since it opened, and I am so sick of the attitude from the staff at this location. One group is cordial and welcoming and the other literally treat you like an inconvenience. I typically order online, and I always tip, always. Today, when I came into the location to pick up my order, the barista and the person checking out, literally turned away from me, and kept their back towards me, even after I said "thank you so much"! They didn't even acknowledge the fact that I walked into the room let alone the fact that I said thank you. I'm sorry that you hate your job but that isn't my problem and I don't deserve to be treated like trash for simply existing.

Matcha very organic and natural, the ambiance was cozy, and my banana nut bread was very good 8/10 :)

Probably the most inconsistent coffee shop I've ever visited. Either: 1) Great Coffee 2) Bad / Wrong Order, etc. Today, I ordered a flat-white - idk what this is, but it's not what I ordered. I work very close, but will not be back.

Tumeric Tonic. If you're sick, get it. I swear this makes illness so much more bearable. Beautiful presentation too. Bathrooms are public, plenty of seating, friendly staff, great merchandising, fresh flowers, clean, comfortable noise level, plugs for computers, window seating, and of course.. good coffee.

Great vibes! Very hip and a great spot for just sit back and take it easy. Multiple options available to help you get caffeinated, along with even better options to satisfy your sweet tooth. I had ordered a turmeric tonic and a chocolate chip cookie. The tonic was an excellent choice. The washroom was clean as well! Would definitely visit again and recommend to my friends!

Great coffee ! Great alternative to your usual Starbucks

I enjoyed drinking the iced matcha. If anyone is in the Wicker Park area, I definitely recommend this coffee shop since this coffee shop is a convenient location from the Division Blue Line stop.

A really cool coffee! I ordered a cappuccino perfectly executed! The interior design makes the space feel comfortable to work or simply grab a cup!

The people who work here are very nice, despite what I imagine they go through serving Wicker Park clientele. This location is clean, organized, and capable of making a pretty good matcha latte. The barista on shift knew lots about the coffee and didn’t mind a bit of chat while I waited.

Not from Chicago but visited Intelligentsia and thought it was a good coffee shop. I ordered a double espresso and my wife ordered an iced latte. Black Cat Espresso is a solid go-to!

Went in this morning to buy some beans and the barista offered us a free sample of the type of coffee we were considering since they had it on filter. She also answered all of our questions thoughtfully.

The coffee here is absolutely cutting edge. The technique used to pull every shot is dead one. I wish they had more of a food and bakery menu though. The space is a little small and industrial which makes the location feel cold. I’m just being picky though. Still great coffee.

I love this Intelligentsia location. I came on a Monday morning, and the shop was fairly empty. They have cold brew and nitro cold brew on tap, which is great on a hot day. They also sell a lot of merchandise/ coffee brewing equipment. It’s a great place to get work done because they have outlets around the shop.

Today I had the best Latte of my life. Even drinking it out of to go cup it was delicious! Brandon has perfect the art. Bravo, keep up the good work.

The pour over was amazing The latte was great The baristas had a lot of knowledge about coffee and were very kind.

Iced latte was probably the best I've ever had. Not butter at all. I usually like flavoring and sugar in my coffee but it didn't need it at all.

I really want to rate it better but the past two times I've been here the customer service has been extremely poor. And there are many more options available in Wicker that have great coffee and great customer service. I won't be back for a while.

I Liked this place. Good AC. Not crowded at 1 pm. Clean bathroom. Very good whole milk latte. Note: no cash taken here.

Intelligentsia introduced me to Third Wave coffee. They taught me about coffee origins and roasting. There are lots of coffee roasters and many are absolute stars. Yet, somehow, in Chicago, there is something very special about the approach and the product here. Call me a fan. 5/5 recommended
