In Short – Airy and minimalist, this coffee joint wakes with the early risers, mostly Loyola students and locals from the neighborhood. A steady thrum of folk music piped over speakers plays over the scattering of laptop keyboards as customers reading their newspapers or converse over Intelligentsia brews. Food options cover soups, bagels, pastries, ice cream and fat free frozen yogurt.
