Kapéj Coffee

Easily one of the bests coffee shop in Chicago and the No. 1 in Old Town.

Personally, I get a matcha latte with two shots of espresso there, and it’s amazing. There is no doubt in my mind, the bests matcha latte that I have ever had and easily no. 1 in Chicago, is here at Kapej.

Prove me wrong.

Grilled chicken sandwich is MASSIVE and very tasty. Frappe is yummy, person working there was polite.

Edit: two days in a row, delightful service and tasty drinks!

Short visit from NYC and needed my coffee fix. So happy I came here! Amazing owner with a wonderful menu. Excellent lattes and sandwiches. Will definitely come back on my next visit.

Location is sketchy. Owner is blasting Fox News. I don’t care what your politics are but no reason to destroy the ambience. Coffee was slightly lower than Starbucks quality. Breakfast sandwich was massive but lacked flavor or finesse.

Excellent place to have a breakfast or lunch, or just hop in and grab a cofee with a muffin. The owner comes out and helps stuff. Kudos!

My favourite coffee shop in all of Chicago. Coffee tastes great, beautiful cosy interior with loads of sofas and armchairs, and the grilled chicken sandwich is unreal!

Today, I had the best iced latte in Chicago. Didier is such a great person. I was impressed by his dedication to make the best coffee. If you like coffee, you should totally try this place out.

First time visitors and would happily return! Amazing coffee and well crafted drinks. Staff was passionate and friendly. Always love a place that supports local artists and encourages guests to hang out and read a book!

I had a great experience. Had coffee and croissant sandwich. The sandwich was huge and delicious. The coffee was so good I took some home. The place was clean and the staff very friendly. Explained the differences in their coffee's and even gave us a little bit of history. I would highly recommend it. Can't compare to Starbucks because you might pay the same for a sandwich but get half the amount of food.

Rude staff. A friend and I came in today with the intention to purchase food, we had never been to this place before and wanted to give it a shot. We were finishing up some drinks we got earlier while we were waiting in line to order when the gentleman behind the bar very rudely said, "No outside drinks allowed. It's like bringing a 6pack into the bar." Trying to be cooperative we asked if we could order to go in which he rudely and huffily agreed. At this point we were so disappointed with the customer service we decided to go elsewhere and will not be returning. What a disrespectful and unfortunate first impression to make on a new customer.
