Java & Mug

Really relaxing, clean, spacious cafe and offers delicious hot drinks among other things like smoothies and food. Owner is super nice and accommodating. Great place to just hang with friends or get work done. Highly recommend the Milk Tea Latte and the Hot Cocoa

This is the place. I found it by an accident and am gladly returning for the rest of my being. Absolutely loved it and their coffee is the best!

Last night, I was craving boba or milkshake. As I searched a place near me, Java and Mug showed up and I decided to go there. As I walked in, I was extremely shocked by the appearance of the restaurant. Cozy sofas, peaceful music, and calming atmosphere! Literally a great start. The oreo milkshake was amazing even though it costs $6. However, it still deserved 5 stars because of how comfortable it is to spend some quality time for yourself. What I love about this place is that it was open until midnight. I will be coming back again⭐

This place is adorable. They have good selection of food, coffee, bubble tea, and few other items. I ordered mango bubble tea (supposedly they are made of fresh fruits) and tomato panini. Although I loved the taste of both, I would strongly prefer bubble tea in a liquid form and not in a smoothie form, atleast should offer to have them in both ways. Tomato panini literally has tomato and cheese (I thought they atleast use some spread) which still tasted good with marinara. Giving this restaurant 4 stars because of my experience with what I ordered and the look and feel of the restaurant in general.

One of my favorite cafes in all Chicago for the incredible value (I was really surprised at the bingsu pricing--owner said they haven't changed prices in years, even post inflation!), late-night hours (open until 12am!), and kind owners. Relaxing and cozy atmosphere with excellent, delicious drinks, desserts, and paninis. My friends and I always get the fruit bingsu (shaved ice dessert, generous amounts of fruit) with their taro latte! Super student friendly while being a great hangout spot at the same time. Thank you to the owners for stewarding such a valuable space!

I got a delicious cappuccino and they do all espresso drinks, but also have bubble tea and pastries. The atmosphere is inviting and comfortable and the gentleman behind the counter advised me on the best restaurants around for dinner.

I love this place! It's very cozy, we really like the bubble tea, I recommend taro,coconut, and mango flavor, if you want to enjoy something different for dessert, try their bingsoo, delicious!

Such a cozy place to either get work done or hang out with friends! Owners are so kind, friendly, and super hospitable! Love that they're open until midnight, I love studying here until late night. The menu selection is great as well, from ramen to coffee to bubble tea and paninis. All around super cozy and warm place!

Very cute Korean Cafe like you would see in the Korean series on Netflix! They have couches where you could chill on but too bad I went during the Covid and you can't use that. They also provide board games. It is perfect location for the college students to hangout after school or to study/read.

Love this place!!! The owner is so attentive and has always been super nice! I love their bubble tea, smoothies,teas... Actually what don't I like? Great to come with friends or to study. Noise level really depends on who is there. Tons of students? Quiet. Lots of friends? Comfortable level of noise.
Love it!
