La Malinche Coffee & Tea House

Looking for the best coffee shop in Chicago? Look no further! La Malinche has the best tasting coffee in the city. The interior is very cozy, and you will be greeted warmly by the owners. I am currently addicted to the Casanova sandwich (which you can also get as a crepe!!!), it’s so good!! They also have rotating specials, and every one I have tasted is 5/5.

Good location, decor is cute. Be careful that you're not being over charged. The guy at the front desk didn't have a total up at all and kept telling me it was 13 bucks for a small chai and croissant NOT TRUE. They show you an itemized breakdown before you pay on the pad. This time it wasn't up there till the correct price was there. Then after my card didn't go through b/c I had just enough on a cash app card, he mentioned the machine takes partial payments. Then finally said my apologies it's only 8 dollars. HUH. That was weird encounter. NOTE: if I hadn't used a cash app card with the exact correct total I WOULD have been over charged. The guy insisted that I do a "partial payment" and use another card. and after realizing I wouldn't then he began to apologize. That is what makes this weird. He was trying to overcharge me and his plan failed.

This place is great! Every drink that I have ordered has been amazing and the bagel sandwich was delicious. The decor and artwork are very Instagram worthy, but even more importantly, I always feel welcomed by the staff.

Cozy colorful coffee shop with delicious food and drink. A unique environment with friendly staff.

Love everthinh about it!

The paninis are incredible and the espresso drinks are the BEST! They even take care to make designs in their lattes. The pastries are good too; I've had both breakfast & lunch here. The granitas are outstanding! The staff is super friendly, the atmosphere is warm & welcoming, and the owner is involved in her community. Great place to support!!

Great atmosphere for drinking coffee, reading a book, or catching up with a friend. New favorite local place to visit. The food tasted delicious, too.

Best matcha latte in the neighborhood! You also must try the crepes because they are delicious and made just right.
