I love this coffee shop! Amazing coffee drinks, friendly staff, and a very chill ambiance. So glad it's a neighborhood staple.

Had the iced rose marzipan latte. Absolutely on point! Very few places know how to do a rose latte and this place nailed it. Excellent and friendly service.

Mega tasty cold brew and cappuccinos. My only complaint is that the food usually takes about 10 minutes to come out, but that’s just because they make it all fresh! If you can spare the time in the morning it is super worth the wait to grab a bite while you’re there. Everything I’ve tried on their menu is delicious.

Elevate is my favorite coffee shop in the neighborhood. The staff is exceptionally friendly and kind, and I see them cultivating relationships with customers all the time. They'll remember your drink order and your pup. I can't say enough good things about the people who work here. Beyond that, they put attention and effort into their drinks, and it shows. I've enjoyed all my beverages there, but I quite like the Rose Marzipan Latte for a fancy treat.

Elevate makes such DELICIOUS coffee!! Their menu is full of seasonal, unique, and tried & true flavors. Pro tip: if you want to change a menu item to you tastes, just ask! I don’t love overly sweet coffee drinks, so I had the Crème Brûlée latte at half the sweetness and it was PERFECT! The shop is also decorated to make you smile and the pastry case was full of delicious treats. Can’t wait to go back!

Best coffee and customer service I have ever had!! I already recommended all my friends to come here. Only downside is I wish I lived a block away. Otherwise I would come here daily! I already can't wait to come back and drink the rose latte!! :D

My favorite coffee shop ever! I go about 3 or 4 times a week. The drinks and food are delicious. The baristas are great; they’re very sweet and friendly and will make you want to stop by everyday (in a good way) :-)I used to go to Starbucks on a regular basis, but easily made the switch to support this wonderful local coffee shop. The minute anyone mentions coffee, I gladly send them to Elevate Coffee.

I had their horchata latte and bacon and egg sandwich. Both were delicious and would 100% recommend. Staff there was lovely. Strongly suggest supporting this small business!

I go to Elevate at least twice a week and I’m always extremely satisfied with my experience. They’ve successfully taken all of the business I used to give Starbucks and I’m thrilled to support a local business. The employees are always kind, and conversational. My favorite is Joe, he makes a mean oat milk vanilla latte. My dog Bailey is always welcome inside as well, she makes good use of the treats by the front door. I’ll continue to go there as long as I live in the area. I highly recommend!

We love Elevate !! Highly recommend this cafe. There is a lot of unique coffee options. You can tell the owners take pride in their quality and service. My favorite was the Creme Bru-latte, really well balanced. I also recommend the avocado caprese toast. Always so fresh and delicious !!

Cute spot! I had the Rose Marzipan latte and it was fantastic, I would recommend a stop just for that. I am excited to try some more drinks the next time I come around!

Stopped in for a quick to-go cup of black coffee. Could see myself spending more time in the small space to read or do work too.

I have been to at LEAST 60+ coffee shops and this is one of my top 5! It is SOOOOOOOO smooth and very good! 10/10 would recommend!!!

Picked up a bike down the street and stopped in to grab a quick coffee beforehand. This place is absolutely wonderful. Cute little spot and very friendly people. I live in River North and will go out of my way to grab a coffee here next time I'm around Lakeview.Highly recommend the Freddo Cappuccino. My gf and I got it without sugar and would not change a thing. The breakfast and specialty sandwiches also looked amazing. Usually, I wouldn't go for an avocado toast but I saw someone order it, and it came on top of a bed of chips and was finished with balsamic. Will be back soon.

By far the best coffee AND breakfast I have had in a while!! The freddo cappuccino was smooth and aromatic, and the bacon & egg toast was perfection! Fluffy eggs, flavorful bacon on sourdough!! Definitely my new “go to” coffee shop!!

Stopped by randomly and OMG the best oat milk latte in all of Chicagoland! It wasn’t too sweet or overly creamy. Just what I needed today

Chipotle Turkey Wrap was delicious! Mocha was perfect. Friendly barista and clear floor markings for COVID rules. I'll definitely come here again.

Probably the best coffee spot in Boystown or Wrigleyville. This is a coffee spot for coffee enthusiasts. Very knowledgeable

My favorite coffee shop in Boystown! Great barista and amazing cold brew. They even have Oatly 😍

Lily Bishop

Nice atmosphere with excellent lighting, but I think the drinks are a bit overpriced. Great location if you're checking out Boystown, very convenient.

We had an awesome experience here! The coffee and latte were delicious, as well as the doughnut. It’s dog friendly inside which was a great plus! We ended up staying a bit longer and got the tuna melt which was fantastic!! Highly recommend, we will definitely be back!

Excellent drip brew coffee. The light roast was bright and fresh. A spacious and well lit environment with friendly staff, Elevate would make for an easy place to work or relax.

I thought I'd posted a review for Elevate last year but turns out I'd reviewed the permanently closed shop formerly here - oops! I love this place. I visit multiple times a week if I can, and the owners and all of the staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming. They've really evolved the place to meet the needs of the neighborhood, and it feels like home when you walk in. I can rarely bring myself to try any drink but the iced mocha because it's by far the best I've had, but my boyfriend will occasionally come by and try one of their other speciality drinks and we're never disappointed. The rotating food menu is great, too!

Good coffee and hot chocolate but the scones are awesome! Ask them to warm the scone, you won't regret it.

No-frills coffee serving excellent lattes. This place is casual and perfect for doing work or intimate meeting. Fairly quiet and respectful clientele.Above all, the baristas are quite nice and they do make good coffee.

The food is pretty good, a couple interesting coffee options. Nice seating space and pet friendly. Coffee could be a bit hotter, temperature wise. Everything else hits the spot.

I needed to get my military haircut at Slades and decided to check this place out. Very cool atmosphere in here and everyone is very quiet and minding their own business. I had an iced mocha and they asked if I wanted milk or dark chocolate. I chose milk chocolate and I was very impressed with the taste. I will definitely be back. 5 stars! Bravo!

Cute and quaint! A dog friendly local coffee shop that definitely has a homey feel to it. Great coffee, bagels and pastries. I have bought several friends in to share time with there.

I’ve been twice during my visit. Quiet, laid back atmosphere. Always peoples studying/working. Staff is friendly, very clean space. I’m a black iced americano guy, it’s hard to screw those up. Pretty standard. I did have the breakfast burrito this morning. It was pretty darn amazing to be honest. They were out of wheat wraps so I got the spinach wrap... lucky me. I told them they should offer the choice. YUMMY. I’ll be back when I’m in town. 😊🙏🏻
