I stopped by Afterhours Coffee last Sunday to grab some coffee. The shop is one block south of the Quitman Park & Ride, so if you're like me and drive as well as take the Red Line, this is a great place to get coffee right by Quitman Station.

Open 6pm to midnight only: perfect for night owls, creatives, and especially the late night coffee lover. I can't recommend this place enough: knock on the door and try it for...

This is a really cool unconventional little coffee spot and I’d highly recommend. The coffee shop is located in the very back of the barber shop, don’t be afraid to go on in and try it out, everyone was very chill and friendly!
A kind gentleman named Victor made our caramel lattes and they were amazing! I will definitely be...
