Plein Air Cafe

Cafe · Hyde Park

"This European-style cafe on the University of Chicago campus features a full assortment of coffee drinks and pastries, plus breakfast, lunch, and wine. It's a collaboration between Kevin Heisner (Heisler Hospitality) and former Little Branch partner Soo Choi. The patio affords nice views of the Frank Lloyd Wright Robie House. It’s a tiny space, so be prepared to compete with University of Chicago students pulling all nighters to secure a table." - Ashok Selvam
