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

"When you just need a comfortable place to work for a few hours, go to Kusanya in Englewood. This place wants you to sit and stay awhile—it literally says so on its website. It’s a pretty standard cafe set-up, with lots of little tables and wifi, and all the food costs $2-$6.12—dishes like baked oatmeal, grits (you choose either sweet or savory), and the Tuna Turner sandwich, which is just fun to say. And if you do end up staying all day, they frequently host community events (like poetry and author readings) in the evening." - adrian kane, john ringor, veda kilaru
