"Is that everything, honey?" Prepare your mouth for buttery sandwich heaven. Tripleta and medianoche and lechon for the meat lovers, egg and avocado for the vegheads. Wash down a tasty quesito with a sweetbomb namesake café colao. Notoriously slow, but worth the wait." - Firebelly Design

"Cafe Colao has something we wish all coffee shops served: Puerto Rican pastries like flaky pastelillos de guayaba. In addition to their coffee and bakery menu they’ve also got a long list of breakfast and lunch sandwiches, from steak and eggs to medianoches. There’s no WiFi, but there is sidewalk seating perfect for that coffee date you’ve been putting off, or you can take your iced latte for a walk around the park a block away." - josh barnett, john ringor

best cuban sandwich in town so far and I am from Chicago! I also had the bread with butter. i am used to having sugar on my bread and butter but it was good. i just think the french bread they use is outstanding. coffee, of course, good. Also had a guava tart, it was delicious. not too sweet. the tart part was a little hard for me but I love soft cookies so hopefully that helps you gauge for your taste. The music was salsa the whole time I was there. they have a cute patio which I wanted to sit at but was too hot for that day. The staff is awesome! so nice and courteous. Definitely coming back. Want to try the iced coquito.

Great service, music, sandwiches, pastries and coffee! A one stop shop for any craving! I had an iced coquito latte, an egg, steak and cheese sandwich and a guava cheese pastry and they were all aaaamaazing! If you’re ordering a sandwich it definitely will be worth the price because it’s stuffed with all the right portions!

Super friendly and polite. I had a sugar donut. Lots of sugar and fresh. I also got an iced coffee. Lot of neighborhood regulars coming and going. Sitting area outside also.

Cute little cafe with sandwiches, coffee, and pastries. Very much has a community feel to it. The pastry and coffee I got were good and unique. Worth dropping in if you're nearby

Coffee was not great - lacked flavor and freshness. Donut was not that good. Menu options are not healthy and lots of sugary item on display. No restrooms or sink to wash hands. Not sure why reviews are positive

The coffee is probably the best I've had, no bitter after taste and is very smooth. The cafe colao tasted perfect, fluffy donuts, delicious pastries, and the sandwiches taste delicious. Can't wait to come back something different. The people that work here are kind and hardworking too.

This is one of my favorite cafes in Chicago. I go here at least once a month. I get the black coffee and share a pastry and breakfast sandwich with my partner. She loves the cafe colao drink. Our favorite pastry is the guava doughnut. It’s so soft and full of delicious guava goodness. The breakfast sandwiches are all great. It’s hard to pick a favorite one. The bread they use in the sandwiches are so soft too. Pillowy goodness! I also bought pastries for my bachelor party, and it was a hit! Continue making great food Cafe Colao, and we will continue to share it with our family and friends. 🙂 Oh yeah, and the manager and staff are great too!
