All-Day Restaurants Are Captivating Chicago Diners By Doing It All | Eater Chicago

"Intimate and intentionally unhurried, this Logan Square all-day gathering place moves with its patrons: from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m., the cafe hums with remote workers and early risers sipping coffee and savoring pastries; by 5 p.m., the lights dim, the menu shifts, laptops are swapped for phones snapping dinner photos, mugs become wine glasses, pastries become pasta, and the energy shifts from soft chatter to lively banter. The noise of Milwaukee Avenue fades the moment you step through the door, and since relocating to a larger space in 2023, it has leaned into a pandemic-forged focus on adaptability. As executive chef-owner Joe Frillman explains, the model maximizes the building and diversifies revenue streams: great coffee and pastries in the morning, an all-day gathering place, and a destination for dinner at night." - Tajah Ware
