Cherubs Cafe

“Truly special place.”

Truly special place. Came on a whim. Was so beyond charmed. Elvia is a saint who slings coffee, solid tacos and paninis, and a mean horchata. The vibe is almost unparalleled. I’ve never been anywhere like this. Elvia told me all the neighborhood kids come to Cherubs if their parents are late picking them up from school because they feel safe and at home with her. Protect her and her paninis at all costs.

“It was our first time coming here and the food was absolutely delicious.”

It was our first time coming here and the food was absolutely delicious. I highly recommend it for anyone locally on to go to pick up a tuna Sandwich. The smoothies were just as good and I'm looking forward to the next trip.

“Great neighborhood place.”

Great neighborhood place. Comfortable casual environment with a mix of tables and sofas, food is a great mix of styles, and services is always friendly. Haven't had a bad meal yet. Normally get a burrito for lunch and/or a mango smoothie as a snack.

“This was place was the BOMB.”

This was place was the BOMB! Everything is good, and their tacos come with enough toppings to make two out of one, and the even proved a secondary tortilla for just that purpose! Go!!

“AYOOO. This is legit one of THE best panini sandwiches I’ve ever had in Chicago, and that’s not...”

AYOOO. This is legit one of THE best panini sandwiches I’ve ever had in Chicago, and that’s not taking the price into consideration. The full sandwich for $11 is legit two sandwiches. Perfectly toasted thin bread, incredible pastrami, with mayo, mustard, lettuce and tomato. Holy cow what a deal and so much flavor. And a fresh green smoothie for $5? I mean you can’t find that anywhere in 2025. The atmosphere is impeccable. Support this local business you will NOT be disappointed! (Wish I took pictures.)

“Smoothies and tacos are incredible.”

Smoothies and tacos are incredible! Go there or order online right this minute. Help support a business that gives back to the community in a variety of ways. Elvia is an absolute treasure, please swing by Logan Square farmers market sometime to visit her in the summertime. You'll be in for a treat
