Cafe Emmanuel

Chilaquiles are SO good! I added chorizo to mine and I was just blown away. They also brought fresh homemade tortillas right to my table. They guy behind the counter was so friendly and helpful, will definitely be going back.

The bread (doughnut and concha), Mexican hot chocolate, and coffee were perfect. As a first generation Mexican American, I came here because its important to support small business owners.

Came here after visiting the Mexican Art Musuem. Such an amazing experience!! The service was incredible, they were very helpful with what to get and took good care of us. My boyfriend and I both went out of our comfort zones and got the Pambazo and Huarache, and they were both delicious. The horchata was freshly made and delicious also....we got a second one! Lovely, delicious gem! We will be back!

I “work from home” which means I visit a lot of coffee shops. This coffee shop has a “home like” feel with delicious coffee, food and pastries to indulge in. They have a variety of authentic Mexican foods and pastries to choose from that you can order to dine in or take out. In addition to the nice atmosphere they have great customer service. If you’re looking for a nice place eat or get some work done this is the place to go! It will most definitely become one of my regular “work from home” spots.

Great place to eat some authentic Mexican food. Fabulous Huaraches, Tortas, and Tamale Oaxacquenos. Across from park and the Mexican Art Museum with the added bonus of the best prices in Pilsen. Cozy decor inside with the option to eat outside. Service is great too.

I called this place to see if they had tamales and champurado and stated they had tamales but no champurado due to the weather which I completely understood. I still came in because my sister just had her baby and wanted this at the hospital, I walked in and loved their whole set up, the guy who answered took my order and was very polite and nice, I am NOT a tamale person and was only going to taste it just out curiosity, I ate the whole damme thing lol and now I want more, definitely going back

Had a great experience here while visiting Chicago. Such a warm and inviting atmosphere, my family and I enjoyed it. Had some abuelita and pan dulce (which was amazing)! The tacos de papa y chorizo were a hit as well. I can see myself coming back here when I visit again.

This place is the definition of a hidden gem. My roommate and I had an order of tacos and a huarache and we were so happy with the quality and flavor of everything we had! We will be back!!! Service is great! Thank you!

Great food! Friendly and quick service. Located right by the National Museum of Mexican Art if you want to look at art after eating, and a large open park for a stroll.

What a good spot. Right next to the National Museum of Mexican Art, these folks have been in this building more than 20 years running an ice cream and bread baking business. Now they’ve remodeled the front, gotten local artists to contribute, and serve homemade food/pastries and local coffee. Try the pinwheel.

Their Pambazos are 🔥🔥
Horchata is amazing💕😜
My to go to spot when I go to work💕

Good strong coffee, pan dulce (bakery) is made fresh daily, delicious with quality ingredients. Try the tamales both banana leaf and corn husk are amazing!

I ordered a pombazo de tinga (chicken) and a oaxaqueño tamal de raja. Both were freshly made and delicious, full of flavor! Whenever I'm near the area again, I will definelty come back for that bomb tamales!

Cozy hidden GEM! Known for its bakery and paleteria now turned cafe. Mommas cooking only adds to the flavor and the beauty within amplifies the good vibes. A must to visit and be welcomed by the warmth of this long time Pilsen family.

Great traditional mexican food just like mi má makes! Friendly staff and relaxed atmosphere.
Will definitely be back!

Absolutely fantastic service and food. The employees were very polite and helpful. The tamale I had was SO DELICIOUS!

My daughter and I loved this place: delicious desserts with coffee, beautiful art all around, and warm and attentive service. Will stop by again!

Stopped by before going to the national museum of mexican art and had the best torta I've had in a LONG time. Great place.

Great food ! Tacos are great ! Good customers service the cashier is really nice. Best place for tacos in Pilsen area.

Delishious tamales and hot chocolate, not to be missed! Great location from the museum and nice and genuine service :)
