chic caffeine : BITTERSWEET, pilsen
Bittersweet in Pilsen is one of those spots that instantly feels like it’s in motion — not loud or chaotic, but alive in a way that makes these afternoons feel purposeful. From the moment you step in, the sunlight spilling through the windows hits the warm wood tones and the minimal yet thoughtful decor just right.
chic caffeine : IPSENTO, wicker park
I want to love this Ipsento — truly. Mostly because I did love the original one on Western Ave. That spot was small, warm, and genuinely about the coffee and the culture around it. You could feel the intention the moment you walked in.
