Ludlow Charlingtons Coffee Shop

I stumbled by this coffeeshop on my walk and I loved it!The inside is so eccentrically decorated with a ton of seating. I ordered a chai latte which was so good - one of my favorites in the city!I also got a croissant which was perfectly fluffy and crispy on the outside :)

Quaint little philanthropic coffee shop that gives 50 percent of their proceeds from the merch purchased at the shop to support dogs through Chicago's Orphan Animal Community. Upon walking in I felt like I was in a dark shop you'd find in Diagon Alley right out of a Harry Potter book. The walls are filled with portraits of dogs dressed as royalty which I half expected to start talking. My latte was great and had all the options I was looking for ( eg sugar free vanilla syrup and unsweetened almond milk ). Food options were limited to a few pasteries so go elsewhere for a more substantial meal. Great coffee/ lattes AND philanthropic owners? Of course I'll be back. Fun, random, quirky addition to the neighborhood.

Popped in before going to a nearby appointment. This coffee shop is so cute! Dog lovers are going to want portraits like the ones they have here. Small inside but plenty of seating to enjoy your coffee or pastry. Service was quick, friendly, and helpful! Parking sucks in this neighborhood. I've driven by several times but never had success in getting a parking spot. So this visit was my first time in as I was able to score parking! Hopefully I can pop in again soon!

Fantastic coffee shop with great, quick service! My husband and I love coming here because they are dog friendly as well. Every time we go the barista offers my dog a treat! I've been ordering their maple latte with oat milk which I believe is a seasonal drink. It's a delicious flavor without being overly sweet. They also have a horchata latte that I'd like to try sometime.It is a fairly small space and it can get crowded on the weekends to the point where you might have to take your drink to go unless you want to hover to find a table/seat. I definitely recommend trying Ludlow Charlingtons!

Very sweet place! Not a super huge shop but feels quaint and cozy.I got a latte, my friends got hot chocolate and chai. The chai had "the right amount of spice without being too sweet" and hot chocolate was "rich and creamy." My latte was amazing. We got 8oz which normally feels small but they came in these cute glasses which I loved!I cannot speak for the sweets as I did not try any but my friend said the donuts are amazing. I will have to try when I come back!

This is a cute little tiny coffee shop. I've been in the area when I've been looking for coffee shops since it has shown up in my Yelp search, but I hadn't located it until today. I was only a block or two away so today was the day I got to try it! Of course there are themed coffee shops out there and this has a light theme, of dogs--fancy Victorian era dogs in particular. There's a sign on the window saying that the city won't allow them to have dogs inside but if you have a service animal they're welcome--perhaps their subtle way of telling patrons to say their dog is a service animal since they can't question it? Half the proceeds from their branded merchandise goes toward dog rescue charities and the photos on the wall are inspired by furry friends from their favorite charity.I picked up a pumpkin pie latte and chai latte. The chai was okay; I wouldn't have minded if it had a bit deeper flavor, but I would have it again. I was told that the pumpkin pie latte was EXCELLENT. Obviously the coffee shop that shall not be named has made pumpkin flavored lattes an annual Epic Event but this was better than anything they could produce. I also got an apple danish and raspberry beignet, which were fine. I had a bite of the beignet and I probably liked it better than the danish, although I must say the lamination on the dough for the danish was perfect. The beignet is not a Louisiana-style beignet (so don't say you weren't warned) and it was really good--not too sweet and there was not too much filling. And the jam inside was excellent.Ludlo Charlington's has a Print With Me station, which is handy and would have been useful if I could have remembered what it is that I thought yesterday I needed to have printed. Most of the seating is the counter that runs along the wall and front window; however, there are two tables inside and two outside when the weather permits.

Such a cute coffee shop up in the Lake View/Lincoln Park neighborhood. It's dog themed throughout including decor, pastries served in dog bowls and even dog friendly (which isn't too common in Chicago)! I had the seasonal maple latte which was delicious, not overly sweet but the perfect amount of Autumn/Winter flavor. Definitely recommend stopping in if you are in this area, make sure to bring your furry friend with you too! 5/5 stars, cute place for all you doggo lovers!

This such a cute little cafe in Lincoln Park. They have great seasonal lattes. We tried the strawberry mocha and the snickerdoodle latte. The strawberry mocha literally tastes like strawberry icecream in a cup. The snickerdoodle latte was great too. The cinnamon wasn't overpowering. The service was fast. The decor is very old school European. This is a dog friendly cafe. I am taking a star off due to lack of food options. They only had a few croissants left even though it was early morning. Pretty sure the croissants were leftovers from the previous day. They have a couple tables for group seating and big table with individual chairs to sit and work from. Overall, a cute little cafe to try great coffee beverages from, but be mindful of the lack of food options.

Awesome little coffee shop with fantastic vibes and cutest decor. The snickerdoodle latte is delicious and made quickly with love! The workers are so polite and sweet and really fun to chat with! I love the dog themed decor. So glad I stumbled upon this little gem!

Just the cutest little coffee shop with the coolest sort of art deco/modern victorian vibe. This place was classy, upbeat, and was rocking the type of jazz playlist that had me pulling out Shazam the entire time I was there. I had a vanilla London fog which made the top two London fogs I've had in the city, so I will def be back. Fast wifi, friendly staff, plenty of seating, and the temp was somehow perfect, which is so hard to do during Chicago winter
