Nitro coffee on the patio, delightful on an autumn day in the 20s (2020s or 1920s... no no, it wasn't 20 degrees!)

Great little coffee shop to come work in and have some coffee. I enjoyed both the doppio and the latte. The staff were very friendly too. They have wifi and outlets to charge your devices with a decent amount of indoor and outdoor seating.Will definitely come back.

Easily my favorite coffee shop in Chicago. Really the ideal place for a coffee with friends & is especially great for studying!! All of the baristas here are above & beyond. Everyone is super kind, service is fast, & importantly they're great at actually making drinks. I've gotten coffee and matcha here, iced and hot & everything has always been perfect!My go to there is the matcha with their rose cardamom syrup. They normally tell me the standard is 5 pumps or something & I just ask them to do 1 pump of the syrup. It's honestly still quite sweet and I can taste all the flavors with just the 1 pump so I can't really imagine getting it with their regular added 5. I love that they use ceremonial grade matcha here. So many coffee shops use weird cream/sweetener cut matcha & it just tastes like milk. Here you get that really good true matcha flavor. Also one last thing on the coffeeshop to study at note- they have lots of outlets & normally play instrumental music here so the lyrics aren't distracting if you're reading something else! Overall just 100% recommend the best coffeeshop I've found in Chicago!

Great cafe right off the brown line and red line Belmont stop. Theres lots of seating with accompanying outlets and the music they play isn't too loud so it's perfect for studying/getting some work done.

I frequent The Annoyance Theater down the street from this coffee shop a lot. And as such, have walked by this place, countless times. On this day though, I decided to walk in and give it a try. And boy was I blew away! It's nice and spacious inside and has beautiful vibe. Service was quick and friendly and the coffee that I had was so good! I will be back, you can believe that.

I enjoyed my time at Pedestrian coffee today and had a great coffee. I like that they serve them in glass cups and have free water around the place. The greenery & plants were amazing and I felt like I was in a garden. The food looks fantastic & the coffee is pretty strong in my opinion. I wfh here for a couple hours and if you have headphones, you don't hear anything else mostly at all. Very quaint, and the baristas are so kind. Quick to give you suggestions and will even provide the WiFi password if you're new to the joint! Will be revisiting soon!

The ambience is cute, nice outdoor seating, and the staff are very nice. I love going here to study, and I love their cortados. I will say the lighting near the back gets a bit dark though.

Perfect space near the Belmont train stop. Calm and energetic instrumental music and lots of plants makes it good for work. There's lots of coffee related equipment to purchase. As a former art student, I loved the black and white photographic prints on display and slideshow of images projected on the back wall. Staff is very sweet and quirky, my order was ready fast. Little side note- no microwave so they can toast us baked goods but cannot nuke em. They offered that it would take a few minutes to heat up my scone but I declined. My Americano (my litmus test for a good coffee shop) was lovely. I got a hitchhikers scone- pretty much granola in scone form, was buttery and hearty, filled with dried apricots YUM. Seating outside, along the side of the building was shady and simplistic. The water filling station is too low to fill a big water bottle.

This is a great coffee shop for meeting up with people or remote working - there are so many seating options and a majority of the tables are either next to a plug or have built-in power. There's even a small desk in the back corner if you wanted a quiet workspace! The space is cozy but modern and well lit. And I love the plants. There is also an outdoor seating area too. I got a dirty chai latte which was really good, and the oatmeal cherry shortbread which I LOVED! It tasted very fresh and the oatmeal balanced out the sweetness nicely. Highly recommend!

Amazing sourdough cinnamon rolls, amazing coffee, amazing baristas. This place gets really popular for all the remote workers/students as you can see so there's not a lot of places to sit but other than that i cant recommend enough!

This coffee spot is cute and friendly. We came here on a cold day to get a few lattes and they were both delicious.
