I have always seen this place come up when looking for great coffee and lattes, and I finally decided to try it myself. First, the interior is really cool with retro 80s and 90s memorabilia throughout. This place seems like it can get busy, but fortunately, my drink came promptly. Fortunately for my first visit, the beverage was absolutely delicious. The Ghostly Trio is a latte with a mixture of White Miso, Caramel, and Black sesame flavors. For such an unusual flavor profile, I didn't know what to expect. However, I can now say that this drink is one of my favorite lattes. The espresso was smooth, and the flavors provided a delicate, slightly sweet, and nutty taste to compliment the drink. I was very impressed by the creativity and execution of this drink and will surely be back for another dive into their menu.

Randomly came upon this place on a trip to Chicago, looking for a coffee spot nearby. Love the kitsch.. we thought it was horror movie themed, but think it is more 80s/90s themed. Great for (older) millenial nostalgia.My group generally enjoyed their coffees and pastries. I got:* Rocket Sauce (Mate Ginger Lime, $6 for 8oz) - 4 starsRefreshing and I'm pretty sure had fresh grated ginger. I actually thought this was going to be a latte, as did many in my group, but it's actually a soda drink. Still good!* Coconut donut - 4.5 starsCake-y, bread-y, moist, very lovely.

The menu was very straightforward and had good options. The koopa troopa latte was good. Smooth finish and not too overly sweet. I will say i was missing a bit of the peanut butter flavor. Customer service was solid, nothing crazy or mind blowing just good and attentive.

One of my favorite coffee spots in the city! Service is always incredible and I love the vintage and pop culture decor. Plus my lattes always taste incredible.

Fun/retro/hipster coffee shop nestled in wicker park. If you're into lattes, they have a few freaky lattes that sounded intriguing! I got the koopa troopa which was mot bad but would probably stick with the lavender or honey next time.

I'm going to be thinking about this coffee for a long time. Cool spot, too! Recommend the Ghostly Trio syrup and Vanilla together (half the amount of each, so you get the standard amount of flavor syrups in total).

Cute spot but their wifi has poor connection- not the best place for those who need wifi.

Cool, retro themed coffee shop in wicker park.The coffee options are great if you enjoy sweet, creative concoctions. I always just get the iced vanilla latte.The whole coffee shop is themed to the 90s. There's a model of a delorian from back to the future. Gremlins, Mario bros and other iconic characters sprinkled throughout the shop. Great place to drop in for a coffee of post up for a few hours and get work done.

An easy 5 stars! On a lazy Sunday afternoon, my friends and I swung by this cafe to try it for the first time. Very 80s themed, nerdy, rustic decor, it had. The vibe was very chill and hip. They had Evanescence playing in the background on the loop. Totally going with the theme. Plus it's a dog friendly cafe. Need I say more??!! Now for my coffee, I ordered The Ghostly Trio from their speciality menu. It had white miso caramel and black sesame latte. It was absolutely DIVINE. Very unique choice of combining white miso with home-ground black sesame which gave very understated sweetness for an aftertaste. Absolutely LOVED my coffee. They also replaced regular milk with Oat milk for me. The barista was very sweet and attentive, answered all my questions. He even drew a cute ghost on the paper cup for my order. It was absolutely my kind of a place. I wish we had more of these in downtown area. It seemed very accommodating for everyone who likes working/studying from cafes or even enjoys playing card games. They had a few including Uno. My friends and I also enjoyed a quick game of SkipBo. Finding parking can be challenging but we went on Sunday afternoon so it wasn't too bad. I would love to go back. Recommend this cafe!

I came here for a quick cup of coffee. I ended up just ordering a latte, but regretted not getting one of their speciality coffees. I was given some recommendations after the fact and will definitely be returning to check those out. The latte was still good and despite them completely botching the spelling of my name, their customer service was great. They were friendly and it didn't take long to get my order. Will definitely be returning.
