Backlot Coffee

Good place to have some coffee. Staff is patient yet inviting. Their is a handful of selections to choose from in the bakery goods. I was surprised that they offer Do-rite donuts here for purchase. I bought a donut and espresso for just over $6 which is average on pricing. Inside decor is nicely illuminated but a little bit tight so dining in may not be an option. Overall a good place to visit.

Cute spot right behind the Irving Park Metra line. I got a Oat Caramel Latte and it taste really good! If you’re nearby, check it out!

A little disappointed. Stopped by on a Sunday afternoon when it was below 20⁰ outside. Four employees and I'm the only customer. Great service but no interaction. Just a good morning or thanks for stopping by would have been nice.

Below past review:

The Honey Cinnamon Cortado was a little disappointing. I did not taste any honey or cinnamon. Tried to ask for more Honey/Cinnamon and still didn't taste any. Will try some coffee next time I swing by.

I'm very happy the coffee I purchased from them was roasted recently. Coffee was amazing!!! Will be snagging some more!

Apple fritter and latte were very tasty—plus the microwave available for customers dining in (to heat up snacks or coffee) is a nice touch! Also appreciated the convenient location near the metra/blue line.

However, was disappointed in the service. When you pay over $3 for a coffee, you hope for friendly/accommodating service. This could be improved here.

This place was our saving grace on the drive from downtown Chicago to Madison. There was a line out the door due to a big group, but they offered to let us jump in front which was so kind. Awesome coffee (get the lavender latte) and loved their breakfast scone as well - just what we were looking for. Staff was super nice! So glad we found it.

This place is my go to coffee shop! My oatmeal cookie latte (hot or cold) is my favorite. The green tea matcha and cappuccino is good. I like the donuts, parfaits and croissant. They have lovely special drinks. A pleasant plus, they have lovely plants within the shop. The staff are always very nice!!!

Love this place!! My oat milk flat white was so creamy and delicious.

The Chai Tea latte here was amazing. My wife enjoyed her Vanilla Latte as well.

Awesome place for a relaxing time to read and drink some coffee or tea. Love the plants!

We used to live across the street and came here multiple times a week. We miss it greatly and still try to come back to visit when we can. Great coffee. Yummy donuts. Friendly staff.
