“Coffee isn’t just coffee. If it was, we wouldn’t get so excited about launching our own. For us, coffee is much more than a product or a means to a caffeinated end. It’s about the art of transforming a single bean into something beautiful, joyful, delicious—an experience to make us notice, slow down and savor.
We’re proud to introduce the T1 and No. 4 blends, created over the past year in partnership with renowned local roasters. We hope you’ll taste our dedication to exceptional quality and craft with every cup.”
Mister Q Cafe
Open for takeout breakfast and lunch, head to Mister Qs for fresh flavors and great coffee. With La Colombe on tap, they have tons of options for hot and cold coffee. You can’t leave without ordering a breakfast sandwich or Caesar salad wrap, our two favorite food items.
Tradesman Coffee Shop & Pizza Bar
What better combo than coffee and pizza? Tradesman, a beautiful restaurant in Hood Park, offers both seated meals and a casual lounge area to enjoy coffee and bites, including all-day breakfast offerings. They serve locally fresh roasted Barrington Gold Coffee with many drink options, and are famous for their mini donuts that come in tons of flavors. Yum!!
MamaAna Latin-Brazilian Cuisine
When in the Navy Yard, check out MamaAna! Their coffee offerings even include Frozen Coffee, and you can choose from 4 different flavors: Caramel, Chocolate, Vanilla or Coconut.
