    Wish they still had indoor seating areas. Too many bugs and bees outside to eat peacefully. Also, latte with latte art on a paper cup felt sad πŸ˜”. But overall wasn’t bad. The almond croissant is amazing. I have never had a more delicious croissant in my life. The egg sandwich is also great!

    Astro’s temporary setup in the roastery is cozy and functional. Same great coffees, espresso drinks, and service as the flagship spot, plus Ochre is just next door. Nothing beats a flat white and an almond croissant. Lots of outdoor seating in Core City Park, and plenty of parking in the vicinity.

    Astro has good coffee, experienced barsitas, and a good selection of equipment/beans for home brewing. Really good egg sandwich, too. The outdoor seating area will sometimes have dogs in cute sweaters.

    This was a cozy, picturesque cafe with locally sourced baked goods and a nice variety of coffee. We had the opportunity to enjoy a cappuccino (which many nearby patrons were also enjoying) and a scrumptious pecan sandie. We also tried a macchiato which unfortunately was not as strong of a contender as their cappuccino. A nice setting for quiet conversation or a good book.

    Nice hipster coffee place, nice spot to hangout, rustic decor. Friendly service. Free wifi. Amazing coffee! What else do one want from a coffee place. So I got their regular latte which was little to the darker side but perfect for me. My friend got the mocha and she felt the same, little stronger so she had to add more sugar.. but I love it that way. They do have some selection of snacks. Muffins, coffee cakes and stuff. They have almond milk, white and brown sugar. They have pour over coffee. They do not have flavors for the coffee. Like hazelnut and stuff. The ambience is nice, nice sketches on the wall. The parking gets little little tricky. But I will go back do taste their other coffee selection when I am in the area.

    The Coffee is fine, and ambience is retro. I really loved the Almond Croissant - glad to say its one of the best I have ever had. I was intending to give my experience 3 stars because of the Croissant giving it four.

    Best coffee ever, well made espresso drinks, all around great. If you buy beans you can get a free coffee and the beans are truly the greatest out there, highly highly highly recommend.

    Very cute, cozy space right next to my still all-time favorite bar, Sugarhouse. So there's that, two reviews in one. I got an espresso, and while I expect my espresso to be bitter, this one was bitter, but also strangely sour. Now I'm sure there are a lot of factors that affect the taste of an espresso, like the type of bean, the water, the temperature... I don't even know what I'm talking about here, but I'm guessing...so I'm sure there's some reason for it. It just wasn't my personal preference. I've gone a long time ago and had a latte and I think that was fine for me.

    Got the ginger lemon tea with scone. The interior is cozy but the seating can be a little improved.

    I've been going to Astro since 2016, and I'm so happy to see it back open and better than ever. I love that they always have affordable and quality coffee options on the menu, and that the expanded bakery selection reflects the excellent work that this team put into their sister storefront Ochre. Astro remains, hands down, the best coffee shop in Corktown, even with an expanding range of fierce competition.

    A nice coffee shop with pleasant ambiance. The little breakfast egg sandwich is very tasty and they make it warm for you. Also would definitely recommend the chocolate beet tahini cake. Marvelous! The coffee on the other hand did not blow my mind. Having experienced other specialty coffee shops in the city, the pour over was good, but not as I would have expected from an Ethiopian Natural. It's still a decent coffee and together with the accompanied food and ambience - definitely worth to visit.

    Trendy place just off Michigan avenue. If you like specialty coffee this is a must visit location. They also have really good food and cakes (with a few healthy alternatives). Easy to find parking also around. I took a cortado that tasted very good. Coffee beans, gourmet chocolate and equipment can also be found here to purchase. Also great breakfast items :)
