Rivers and Roads Cafe

The Best Coffee Shops & Cafes In Chicago - Chicago - The Infatuation

"If you’re motivated by being in the company of people who are being very productive, try working at Rivers and Roads in Edgewater. This national park-themed cafe's proximity to Loyola University means that it’s common to find students studying, working on group projects, and breaking the record for most words typed per minute. They have some great bagels from Steingold's, pastries from Publican Quality Bread, as well as giant cookies and quiches that are baked in house." - adrian kane, john ringor, veda kilaru
