“The teas were excellent and the vibes were serene but not empty - hoping they add a few more herbal teas soon!”
“The perfect sun-drenched spot for a winter day! The brown sugar matcha was delicious and I can’t wait to try the hojicha latte next. It was -3 degrees outside today, but nice and warm inside thanks to the big windows. A great spot for some journaling!”
“Small shop serving their own blend of metric beans along side some unique and high quality pastries. Interior is slick but seating is limited. Its fairly quiet overall and could lend itself to being a good spot to work or read. Worth going to if you're in the neighborhood.”
“Tomokohi is absolutely a delightful cafe meeting high expectations for many occasions. Friendship catch up, work, and for authors. Its trendy yet quiet atmosphere fitting quality coffee, tea and pastries feed comfort and joy. I love it!”
“One of the best hidden gems in the neighborhood. Their cold brew is outstanding — smooth, rich, and perfectly balanced without being bitter. I stopped by on a sunny day with my bike, and it was the perfect refreshment. The vibe inside is cozy yet modern, with thoughtful details and plants by the window that give it a welcoming feel. Definitely a spot I’ll come back to when I want quality coffee and a quiet place to relax”
“Great mural, and even greater staff! Most important of all though, coffee was phenomenal, especially on a hot day when you were a little tired. What more can you ask for than a sip of oat lavender cold brew straight from the draft and a sense of community!”
“Ordered the Strawberry Matcha iced dine-in and it was perfectly delicious! Baristas were really nice ~ the blueberry cream croissant was not as sweet as I would like but I have a massive sweet tooth lol I’ll try something else next time! Went on a Tuesday. Everyone was working out studying. Bright windows. Clean. Quiet :) Free street parking”
“Really lovely small coffee and tea spot. Filled with natural light and a minimalist aesthetic. Great for focused work while sipping an iced matcha latte. 🍵”
“Fabulous new Bucktown coffee spot! Get yourself there for your caffeine boost.”
