'L' Cafecito Jumping Bean

Can be busy in the morning but line moves always fast. Best coffee in Chicago! Smaller variety of food thn other location, not too far on 18th st. Really like the aesthetics of this coffee shop as it’s inside the Cta station.

Dirty Chai Latte is soooooo goooood! best coffee i’ve had! and the lox bagel is fire !!

Convenient, welcoming, inclusive little coffee shop right by/under the L. I just had to buy one of their cute reusable bag to encapsulate the memory. My grandmother said it was the best coffee she'd had all week! Not a ton of room inside, so be ready to travel with your order!

Great iced mocha and a variety option of milk for non-dairy people. Good breakfast pastries. Their croissants, apple danish, and cranberry muffin are really good!! Some mornings there might be a line, but they are pretty fast.

Very nice spot to grab a awesome ice coffee and combo sandwich soup. Very good food and portions not expensive at all.

I like everything I have gotten from here. Service is fast. Food is relatively inexpensive. I like the mocha and the lox on sesame bagel particularly.

Might be my new favorite coffee shop! I have coming 2 days in a row once I found out abt this place. Amazing coffee taste and I am a coffee drinker! Iil cute coffee shop by the pink line. If you need a quick stop for coffee or breakfast this is the place to be. Might not be ideal for sitting down but hey it works. Price is very reasonable as well. Pls don’t increase the price cause for the quality I will surely go often!

Given that this is a smaller and second store of the famous Jumping Bean Cafe, I initially hesitated on stopping by this location. Once I did, however, I realized that this location does more than hold it's own. It is a gem. Everything I have tried here has been exceptional in taste and quality. Even things I just tried to add variety to my routine, such as the Carmelita or the Thai Coffee, have been exquisite and rewarding experiences. I additionally recommend a Cafe con Leche for something flavorful but not too strong, or a Mexican hot chocolate with an expresso shot (often called a Dirty Abuelita among locals) for a frothy and richly flavorful drink. The staff is superbly professional, helpful, courteous, and gregarious. It is always a joy to pop in here to garner drinks and food on the go.

Consistent, friendly, reasonably priced.

I usually do the half sandwich have soup combo. Pictured is the chicken salad.

All of the sandwiches and soups that I've had are really good.

Absolutely support this local establishment.

This place has the best soup I have ever tried in my life. Not sure if they put crack cocaine in it but it keeps me coming back. Every. Single. Day. Whether it’s the tomato soup, chicken noodle, chicken and rice or the garden vegetable soup, I HIGHLY recommend it. But also have to shout out the amazing staff. Always see them working hard, while showing off their good vibes…been here about a million times and have only had a problem NEVER! Love this place

Very good coffee at good prices. The blended iced coffee is very good, sweet but strong.

Super friendly and welcoming. I ordered L'Cubano and lemonada. Sandwich came with chips or pasta. Super yummy and delicious, always worth the wait.

Wow! I love this little mini version of The Jumping Bean. It's a great location! It's attached directly to the Damen Pink Line stop and it makes your morning commute so much easier! It's a great atmosphere as well. Everyone that lives in this area acknowledges each other and there is such a positive demeanor when you sit on the benches outside with your coffee. My "Morning Bagel" was delicious, filling but not too heavy, and well balanced. My iced mocha was also delicious and reasonably priced for such a large amount.
Highly recommend!

Good strong and delicious coffee, sweets and bread fresh. Love this place

I had a really fantastic iced latte. This is a great neighborhood place. It is small. No seating.. Stand up counter if you want to stay in..Great pastries sandwiches and coffees of all kind! Service is wonderful.

You must go to this palace. Yes I know it can be small, but to me, it is a palace with delightful and mouth watering foods. Warm meals and drinks for the cold winters and cool drinks with tasty treats for those hot summers. I wish I can come me here more often if I didn't live so far.

It’s my local neighborhood coffee shop. Great bagels, the morning bagel is my standard there with their iced coffee. It is very busy since it’s in the Damen pink line stop but it’s worth the wait. Staff is top notch and love the vibe. Really really lucky to have this in our neighborhood.

Always great and fast service. Drinks are awesome and great sandwiches.

I stopped in this little coffee shop before getting on the train and wow, the cafe con leché was spectacular. I wanted to ask strangers on the platform if they’ve been there, and if not, they had to try it, that’s how good it was.

THE BEST coffee I had while in Chicago. And definitely going to be my go-to whenever in town!

The coffee shop is pretty small so there is very little counter seating by the window. But there is a pretty big outdoor space that has seating.

Ginger Turmeric Almond Milk Espresso Latte - Very lightly sweetened and the perfect amount of that ginger burn. I could drink this EVERYDAY. It’s perfection.

Mexican Chocolate Espresso Latte - The perfect blend of sweetness and slight bitterness.

The espresso here is so smooth and delicious. Probably one of the best espresso I've had in the states. (I drink a lot, a lot of coffee)

Prices are super reasonable.

Service was excellent. Very friendly and helpful.
