Chicago | A Hidden Gem Coffee Shop Open Only on Weekdays ☕️

As someone who doesn’t usually love coffee, I can’t believe how much I adore this place! ☕️✨ The first time I passed by the Civic Opera House, I was instantly drawn in by their clean, minimalist black-and-white aesthetic. It felt so inviting and stylish—I just had to step inside. And just like that—I became a regular. Who would’ve thought? Their Black Sesame Latte is one of the signature drinks—and trust me, it lives up to the hype. From the very first sip, you’re greeted with this rich, nutty sesame flavor that feels like a smooth, warm hug… with a gentle coffee kick. It’s not too strong at all—even non-coffee drinkers will love it. Honestly, it tastes healthy and comforting at the same time! 🖤🌾 I also tried their matcha latte last time—so velvety and just the right amount of sweet. Definitely recommending both! The vibe inside is quiet, clean, and super chill—perfect for stealing a peaceful moment during a busy workday. Whether you're grabbing a quick cup to go or settling in with a book, it’s the kind of place where you can just slow down and breathe. ☁️ Plus, the staff is always friendly and remembers my order—it really feels like a neighborhood spot. The only catch? They’re only open on weekdays from 7 AM to 3 PM. Yeah, weekends are a no-go… so you’ve gotta plan that coffee run during the week! Mark your calendars, folks! 📅⏳ But you know what? That almost makes it more special—like a little secret just for those in the know. Have you tried this spot yet? What’s your favorite weekday coffee break ritual?
