Just back from recent trips to Chicago and KC for business and pleasure. I'm a coffee fan by trade and taste. Here's a quick list of cafés to hit while in either town.
Chicago:
Intelligentsia - the South Loop (on Jackson) location is my favorite. Great coffee and aesthetic
Lovely- a great little bakery near Wicker Park. Great barista and patio, too!
Metropolis - on the far north side. Great coffee and the coolest café in town if you've got time.
KC:
Latte land - don't worry about the name - this place is actually rad. The west plaza location was my favorite
Hi-hat Coffee - awesome menu and the nicest baristas in town.
PT's - the best spro in the midwest.
