Side Practice Coffee

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

"Ravenswood's Side Practice sometimes feels more like a community center than a coffee shop, often hosting restaurant pop-ups, being the meeting spot for a run club, and letting local artists sell their work while Gundam Wing plays in the background. And like their well-curated events, they put as much thought into their coffee, which includes Filipino-inspired specials flavored with ube or burnt vanilla and black sesame. So even if you don't need to break in a pair of Hokas, it’s still an excellent place to get your caffeine fix and focus if “work from couch” runs the risk of evolving into nap time." - adrian kane, john ringor, veda kilaru
