Very Chill Cafe

I tend to log in a lot of hours at cafes working, studying, and relaxing, and I go out of my way to visit Savor for the comfortable atmosphere and great coffee!

Frieldly, welcoming and great coffee

by paulmalc

A very nice coffee house, comfortable and welcoming. Staff and proprietor are wonderful. A very nice place to drink coffee, munch on a muffin, and sit and read on a Sunday morning.

Love It!

by ambergem

I love the kinds of places that draw you in. Savor the Flavor did just that! Or, it could have been Geri sending out the "we've got the best iced coffee in the city" vibe??? Whichever, you've got to stop in. Friendly, inviting, laid-back, great atmosphere and AMAZING iced coffee! It's cold, fresh and just strong enough! This was a perfect pitstop on my way to the bus. Thanks, Geri, for creating a hideaway on Sheffield! I'll be visiting again soon!

Overated with free wifi; great if youre already in lincoln park and sick of the pig

by whoutz

This place is not nearly as good as Filter or the Bourgeois Pig. It has light colored wood floors and white walls, this places feels like a closed down art studio with kindergarden art on the walls. The tables are metal mesh, like what you'd see at sidewalk cafes, which is frustrating if you have a computer or want to write anything. WiFi is free for 2hrs, which is rare in chicago. Definitely better than starbucks, and bigger than the Lincoln Perk cafe (who also has free wifi). Small menu but my mocha was good, although grainy at the bottom. I will go there again. Lots of DePaul students too.

The best Coffee drinks around

by hjg

A must try is the Javette - a vanilla latte made with 2% milk. Sip it without a lid to get the full rich flavor. This place puts the mass coffee shops to shame. In addition, great food and ice cream for a very good value.

  • Pros: Location, People, Service

I've found my favorite coffee house in Chicago!

by chgolil

I was first attracted to the coffee house because it has free WiFi. Being and IT professional, I think it's ridiculous to charge as much places like $tarbuck$ does for this. The moment I walked in I fell for the charm and ambience. I was able to get a few hours of work done while sipping on a latte in comfortable surroundings. I'm definitely coming back...without my computer.

  • Pros: Surroundings, Menu selection, Free WiFi
  • Cons: no parking

support your indy coffee house!!

by soflawed

Squeezed between no less the 4 starbucks within a square mile, owner Geri has managed to create an independant coffe shop flanked on all sides by the caffiene juggernaut. And what a job she has done! The friendliest service in town, great coffee, and some awsome ice cream to boot! Savor quickly begins to feel like home as baristas memorize your name and Geri will just sit with her customers and shoot the breeze. Come on in, get a Latte, enjoy the FREE wi-fi, and make some new friends. Best of all, relax in knowing that you supported one of the few and the best independant coffee shops in Chicago!
