Caffè Umbria

I love this coffee! I switched to decalf about 2 years ago and i found this decaf to be the best tasting coffee around! I buy bags of beans for home and if you go on a Friday morning to purchase your beans, you get a free cup of coffee. So get going and try umbria coffee! The baristas are super friendly and courteous.

Fantastic coffee in great service from a friendly staff, hard to beat this new neighborhood spot. Except for the uncomfortable chairs!

Every person I’ve interacted with here is very nice! The coffee tastes the best out of the local shops I go to. The perfect pick me up before the work Day!

Great espresso and atmosphere, I got a cortado and a lavender latte. The cortado was smooth and creamy, the lavender latte was flavorful and not overly sweet. They also surprised my friend with a few chocolates for her birthday :) great place

Super clean and friendly staff. My daughter took me to Caffè Umbria for Mother's Day for the first time and our lattes were free. Kudos to Caffè Umbria for doing this on such a special day. Our lattes were excellent. We both are looking forward on going back.

This place is great. When they first opened they were still working out some kinks and the service was really slow (depending on how busy they are it still can bit a little slow). But recently it has gotten much better. I really like coming here for the real modern and well designed interior and the coffee is really good. The staff is also very friendly and helpful, I enjoy talking to them.

Umbria consistently has great coffee. Sometimes it's easy to get used to a massive chain like Starbucks and forget how different coffee can be when you get it from a quality roaster.

Go have an iced latte at Starbucks, then drop by Umbria and get one and see if you can taste the difference. I guarantee that you will.

Now if you like a more bitter, super dark roast, stick with your Starbucks... If you want a smooth, flavorful coffee that's got more than just bitterness to it - Umbria makes one of the best lattes in town.

It's up there with my favorite coffee places in Chicago (I also love Sawada and Sip of Hope) for a good espresso drink!

Unfortunately I can't give much more than 2 stars. Bought a bag of beans that were very miss leading. Coffee labeled as a light roast and being apart of of their cupping collection. I've added a photo for more details but the coffee is a Colombian Huila. I've had many different roasts from different lots of this coffee before.

This coffee seemed good at first mostly cause of the description being a light roast. I was hoping for something around first crack. Nothing with permeating oils of course. This coffee was pretty dark, you could feel the oils on the bean. Not to much of a shine but dark enough where off first glance it was not pretty.

Brewed the coffee as a standard V60. Overall not horrible, just not a lot of flavor coming through the coffee, it was slightly disappointing. The coffee wanted to shine but the taste of over toasted toast broke most of the flavors off. Often leaving a lingering taste and coat in the mouth. As the cup cooled it wasn't much better and became more bitter. I would not recommend this coffee roasted by Umbria to anyone who prefers lighter coffees..... despite the description.

Very Cool to see how they make coffee from the Beginning

One of my favorite coffee shops in Chicago! Staff is super nice, coffee is excellent, and it’s a great, relaxed environment to work.
