Chicago, Illinois

Chicago is our biggest market outside of home. We're about an hour up I-94 from most of the city. We're built for two kinds of Chicago event: weddings where the details are scrutinized, and brand activations where the line can't be slow.

Weddings

Premium coffee bars for North Shore and Chicago weddings

Country club ceremonies, North Shore estate receptions, downtown rooftops and hotel suites. We arrive dressed for the room, set up something that reads like a designed piece of the day, and serve specialty drinks that are obviously not catering coffee. Couples book us because their planner already cares about everything else.

  • North Shore (Lake Forest, Winnetka, Highland Park, Glencoe, Wilmette)
  • Lincoln Park, Gold Coast, Streeterville
  • Wicker Park, Logan Square, Bucktown
  • Suburban country clubs and estate venues

Brand & Corporate

Activations for Chicago brands and startups

Fulton Market product launches, West Loop tech offsites, River North agency parties, Mag Mile pop-ups, conference activations near McCormick Place. We bring a coffee bar that looks like the brand thought about it, and a service pace that doesn't kill momentum at a launch.

  • Fulton Market, West Loop, River North
  • Streeterville, Mag Mile, Gold Coast
  • Trade show season at McCormick Place
  • North suburbs corporate HQs

Why us in Chicago

Our beans come from Tala Coffee Roasters in Libertyville, Illinois. That means a Chicagoland-roasted bean, freshly roasted to your event date, served by trained baristas. Our setup is the kind of thing the venue staff will ask about. The line moves at roughly fifty drinks an hour and nobody gets a bad shot.

Travel and logistics

We're based in Pleasant Prairie, WI, about an hour up I-94 from the Loop. The North Shore is even closer. Travel is itemized in your quote so there are no surprise charges day-of.
