Move Along Coffee

Cute walk up window with solid coffee from gaslight and unique pastries on offer. Variety for drinks is fairly standard with some unique seasonal offerings. The quality was top notch in what we got. Staff were very friendly, especially for it being a slow and cold day. Definitely worth stopping in if you're nearby.

Literally writing this from my car across the street after sipping our drinks and eating our pastries, it’s that good!! I got the maple latte which was technically not on the menu anymore but Ian was kind enough to still make for me. Incredible! The French onion croissant and pistachio orange donut were so unique and delicious. Not to mention the service is so kind and welcoming. Highly recommend and will definitely be coming back!

I hesitate to write this because I selfishly don’t want people to find out about this gem… but one of the BEST coffee shops in the city! The French onion pastry is incredible! As a heads up, there is usually a line on weekends and there are no seats / pick up only. Highly highly recommend!

There are some places that really make you (and help you) feel like home when your first home is miles and miles away. Move along is definitely one of those places, even without having a seating space, it really doesn’t need it: the coffee is strong, the pastries are magic and the service is so warm and welcoming you won’t miss a thing. Definitely one of the best spots in Chicago

Best service I’ve had in a long time! The owner is very polite and genuine with each customer making them feel welcome. Not to mention, the coffee is great! The doughnuts were the real show stoppers. Holy cow they were so delicious! We had pistachio orange, cookie butter, and apple and they were incredible. I can’t wait to go back. I’m hoping to make this more of a regular spot!

Great drinks and somehow even better service. It never ceases to amaze me how simple an interaction of being asked, how’s your day going, can elevate an establishment from good to great. Taking the time out of his day to interact with the customers so you don’t feel like you are trying to be gotten rid of. The drinks were delicious and I would definitely recommend.

This place is such a refreshing change of pace from most coffee shops. Super friendly barista who chats you up while you wait, and then delivers you an A+ coffee. I had the campfire mocha, which I was worried would be too sweet, but it was made perfectly. I’ll definitely seek this place out any time I’m in the area.

Cute walk up coffee and pastry spot. The owner was incredibly friendly, welcoming and warm, which added tremendously to an already pleasant experience. We tried the Pumpkin Pie Latte and a coffew cake kouign amann. Both were flavorful and fresh, the kouign amann much richer and full than other spots in the area. Check it out and make sure to chat!

Delicious and well crafted coffees, the pastries were yummy as well. The man who works there is very nice also! Definitely a go to spot

Cute little shop with pretty good coffee. Barista was super friendly and made it a fun little trip. Guys ahead of me were talking with him for a bit so i assumed they knew the barista but while i waited for me drink he also just asked how my day was going and stuff. Coffee wasn't anything particularly standout but it was still good

Waited a little bit to check out this sweet coffee shop and was well worth the wait! My boyfriend and I had an iced latte with caramel and a pumpkin pie latte. The owner was so friendly and easy to talk to! We both throughly enjoyed our lattes, it was smooth and not overly sweet. I also loved my chocolate croissant. It does take a little time to get the coffee and treats since it's a one-man show, but the quality of service overall is worth visiting!

Such a cute little stop if you're walking in the area. The barista was the nicest guy ever and we had a great chat while he made my coffee. The campfire latte was a well made beverage but the taste of the syrup was a little too overpowering for me and I didn't particularly enjoy it. I know if I got something simpler the next time I'd really like it.

We discovered Move Along Coffee on a whim and I'm glad we did! The little walk up window can be hard to miss but we spotted their cool front mural while driving down Grand. The barista is such a kind soul and always makes conversation about your day and if youre somewhat indecisive like me, asks about your coffee preferences so he can tailor the drink to you. He's the only one working up front but never rushes his customers. He's also efficient and meticulous and the coffee always tastes superb. Theres baked goods from Defloured ( that Caramel brownie was divine) and local bakers. We lived the chocolate croissant! Highly recommend!

Great little walk up coffee shop. Perfect when out for a neighborhood walk. Delicious coffee and treats. The barista is always very friendly and will give your pup a treat as well. I definitely recommend stopping by!

I was walking along Grand and had passed by Move Along Coffee a few times before without looking too much into it. The display of sweet treats caught my attention - specifically their ube salted coconut crispy (or some variation of those words). I was under the impression that the business was closed (Sunday, shut window), but my attention lingered on those crispies long enough that the window slid open - open!! The staff was very friendly and conversational on the crispy + how the day has been going in general. Very mindful, very cozy. The crispy is delicious! Will definitely have to linger around more next time.

This charming walk-up coffee shop is located on Grand and Ogden. I came here after my yoga class while waiting for a friend. I ordered a 12 ounce chai latte and it was really good. I am usually picky about chai lattes and this one tasted great, not overpowered by spices and well balanced. I also appreciate that there was no extra charge for ordering it made with oat milk. The owner was super friendly and welcoming and provided great service. I also love the format of just being able to walk up, have your coffee made, and grab it to go. I will definitely be back anytime I'm in the area.

Cute walk up window in West town. I ordered a vanilla latte and an orange raspberry almond croissant. The latte was ok, but the croissant was amazing and very big! Wouldn't come back for a latte, but would come back for baked goods. Be aware that there may be a long wait, since it's only 1 person but he's very friendly. Great service!

10/10 spot to grab a coffee and go. Great cold brew and specialty/seasonal drinks. Beautiful pastries with a large selection of gf and vegan. Awesome service, very friendly. Love that it's a window and not a storefront, the ambiance is Grand Ave.

Ian is so personable and friendly worker (owner?). He asks what you like to drink and then provides options in case you want to try something new. Also the coffee and drinks are great!

Stopped by here for the first time on my way to somewhere else. I got an iced hazelnut latte with oat milk. The coffee was actually super smooth and delicious, so I think I want to try it without the syrup next time. The prices are reasonable and alternative milks are included in the price. There was a small selection of enticing donuts and an almond croissant cookie that I'd like to try in the future. Also, I thought the ice cubes in the shape of an "M" were cool!

Visiting from Rhode Island and I needed coffee and move along was only a couple minutes away. I got the iced pumkin latte,lemon Ube donut & the banana walnut donut! The coffee was gone in 5 minutes it was so delicious and the donuts were such a good texture that I wanted to go again just to try another donut. The service was wonderful and he was so friendly we were talking the whole time he was making the order. Definitely coming back before I leave

When I say I've been waiting for this place to open, I mean it. When a friend texted that it looked open in her walk home, I sprinted as best I could over with a sprained ankle. Move Along is a side walk take away spot. It's right next to a 65 bus line, which is highly convenient! The barista was super nice and friendly. It was late afternoon, so I got a chai apple cider, which was just delightful! The pastries all looked amazing from blueberry muffins to cinnamon rolls to handmade pop tarts. Website says they'll feature guest roasts, and I'm excited to try them out! I will definitely be back!

Move Along Coffee is one of the best coffee shops in Chicago. Their coffee and pastries are really good. Their service is incredible as well. Check this place out if you're in the area.

I was in Chicago for a wedding , found this coffee near the AIRBNB we were staying. The coffee was 10/10 , I had the iced pumpkin spice latte. The guy behind the counter was not only super friendly but also gave us many suggestions of things to do while in the city. I recommend this place if you're ever in the area.

Huge fan of Move Along Coffee! Has become a staple of the neighborhood. The walk-up window is perfect for a great cup of coffee and a snack. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff! Always nice to stop by and say hello. Will be stopping by soon!

Stopped by Move Along for an early afternoon coffee and I got the Pumpkin Pie Latte, iced with oat milk. I had asked for a less sweet version and they were so accommodating and explained that they would decrease the amount of their fresh pumpkin purée to make it to my taste. It was just right and flavorful! Staff were super friendly and love the grab and go concept - will def be back to try more!

Amazing coffee place, put it on your list. Owner is super friendly which I didn't expect from a place called "move along" and with a grim reaper painted on the building. I've had the coffee and americano which were both so amazing to be the highlight of my day. Excited to see if the next guest roaster is even better!

Perfect espresso, fresh pastries. Friendly service and locally owned! Pick up at window.

By far the best coffee I've ever head. The service is wonderful and pleasant. Highly recommend!
