Colectivo Coffee Ravenswood

I recently discovered Colectivo Ravenswood, and I couldn’t be happier that they’ve opened a branch so close to my home. From the moment I stepped inside, I was thoroughly impressed. The shop boasts two floors with plenty of cozy seating areas, spotless restrooms, and an inviting aroma of freshly brewed coffee. The staff delivers excellent service, adding to the welcoming atmosphere. I’ve already visited twice, and each time the place has been buzzing with customers—a testament to its popularity. The coffee is exceptional, and the overall experience makes me thrilled to have this gem in my neighborhood. Thank you for bringing such a wonderful coffee shop to our community!

We love this Colectivo! Trey and his team are the best. We love the coffee and atmosphere. They've had events in the past for the neighborhood, which our family enjoyed. Our favorite menu items are the breakfast burritos and lattes.

Finally made it to this new location, which is conveniently located on Lawrence near the Ravenswood Metra stop. I was lured in by the sign advertising a free latte if you download the app, but I never did get a free latte. In any case, the space is large and inviting, with lots of people working from the shop. There are lots of fun different drink flavors, and snacks to eat. I like how they have sparkling water on tap as well.

I went here every day for a week because I really love their coffee.. but the service was disappointing. The staff often seemed rude and more focused on talking to each other than helping customers. I even started ordering online just to avoid interaction with them. The last visit, the staff’s attitude and being ignored again was the final straw! great coffee, but the attitude ruined the experience, so I won’t be coming back.

Cozy location with a solid menu and good coffee. There's ample seating with a quieter upstairs area as well. Very good spot for studying or working remotely.

Completely average coffee shop. The coffee is good but expensive, the pastries are alright but expensive, the staff are alright, and the vibe is alright. I've never seen an available place to sit, so maybe I'd like it better if I could sit and enjoy the scene?

The staff at this establishment do their best and today was no exception. While being very patient with a frustrating situation and potentially volatile customer, the hard work of the latte was almost instantly spilled. The staff didn't make a peep, just got to cleaning up. I know how exasperating that can be as a service worker. They did phenomenally and I hope they know their social graces are seen and the labor understood.

I do love Colectvo a lot! Really good coffee and snacks, but it took 15 minutes to get my drink one time, and then today I got here with ample enough time to catch my train, but I had to leave because my drink still wasn’t out…I hate being a narc but it was really disappointing.

After getting my flu shot I decided to get breakfast and I want to come here. My first time at this location and I like the store design. It has 2 floors plenty of space for customers to hang out. I ordered a Chicken Sausage Sandwich no egg, Cold Brew, and a Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Muffin. The barista was friendly and took less than 5 minutes to get my order. Definitely coming back in the near future with my boyfriend

Great outdoors section with excellent WiFi connection and outlets! Good: Can't really eat anything there since they don't really cater to vegans/vegetarians. They may have some oats, but maybe not. Service is pretty neutral. They do their job, they're friendly and keep the space clean.

Had a nice latte and really yummy breakfast biscuit sandwich! It's all made to order and was during the holidays, so it took a while. It's a beautiful space with lots of natural light to offer a nice space to work from if needed. There's an upstairs space, too. Parking was a bit challenging but I'm sure it's awesome for those within walking distance from this shop. I got some coffee ground up to send as a gift and the recipients were happy to have it!

Our go to office coffee shop. Always the same quality, great to stop in for a pick me up.

It has been so great to have a Colectivo location closer to home! I regularly frequented another location for years, so when I saw one was opening within walking distance of my apartment, I was stoked. I come here almost weekly. It's a great spot to provide a change of scenery during a WFH day, catch up with a friend, or enjoy a good book. The location can be a bit busy, but I've never not been able to find seating. Colectivo's menu is large, offering something for everyone. I am a big fan of the iced cold brew oatchata, sausage/egg/cheese breakfast sandwich on an english muffin, and the chocolate chip pumpkin loaf. They also have great warm breakfast options, teas, and yummy smoothies. This location is beautiful with lots of natural light and ample seating, as mentioned above. There is an upstairs lofted area if you want somewhere less close to where folks are ordering or picking up their items. There are two restrooms as well that do not require a passcode. My only point for growth is that not all of the employees are as welcoming as others. As a former barista, I know that there are difficult days when it's hard to be cheerful and expressive. A basic greeting is better than nothing, and a small smile goes a long way. I look forward to coming back regularly and enjoying my treats!!!

I came here because I saw an event about face painting for National Coffee Month. Unfortunately I arrived too late with my family so we missed it. However, I still wanted to try thier coffee. I ended up getting the Earl Grey Spritzer which is grey tea with vanilla cold foam. I really enjoyed it, it was just the right mix of sweet(slightly lemony) with a hint of vanilla. If you purchased a minimum of 20 dollars; you get a free tote. It was a cute little beige bag that had colectivos name so that was an added bonus. The coffee shop has two floors and although it is bigger than most; I didn't have much room for my double stroller. The bathroom itself is very clean so big ups for that and they had a changing table. The coffee shop itself seems like a nice place to study or get work done as it is not very loud. I would return just to try the other spritzers because those are a hit!

So happy to have a new Colectivo location in my neck of the woods! Located on Lawrence just down from Marianos, I'm thrilled to have another coffee in the neighborhood to add to the rotation. I'm a huge fan of Colectivo - they have it all! Great ambiance, friendly employees, and of course, delicious coffee. I ordered one of my favorite drinks, the iced pistachio matcha latte. It is really sweet, so I recommend getting it half sweetened. The earthy matcha paired with nutty and sweet pistachio is the perfect combination. A friend and I also split the turkey club. Sourdough is topped with turkey, bacon, havarti, lettuce, tomatoes, and pesto mayo. It was delicious and fresh! Welcome to Ravenswood, Colectivo!

New location near Brown line Damen station. Stopped by hanging out with a friend from Andersonville. Unfortunately the doors off Lawrence isn't working yet, so you'll need to use the side entrance. It was absolutely beautiful and classic Collectivo inside. Drinks are expected for the chain and the everything was clean. The up stairs seating area even has its own trash can by the stairs.

I've been to many locations of Colectivo in both Chicago and Milwaukee. This is why I was excited to try their new location in Ravenswood. I live near to this location, so I was excited to have a location so close to me. I have to say that I was disappointed. My wife and I went late on a Sunday morning. The coffee shop did not seem very busy. My wife ordered a hot mocha. I ordered nothing. I felt like the coffee shop itself was nicer than some of the other locations in Chicago. While the decor was the similar to other locations, this location seemed to have a lot more natural light which made for a pleasant atmosphere. However, the service turned out to be very poor. First, it too way too long to make my wife's drink. It was a total of 20 minutes between the time she ordered and time she received her drink. She got concerned when she noticed that people who placed their order after her were receiving their drinks before her. They only made her drink after she asked one of the baristas about the status of her drink. Second, they made the incorrect drink. She ordered a hot mocha, but she received an iced mocha. The order label on her drink even stated the drink was a hot mocha. According to my wife, there was nothing wrong with drink itself and she decided to keep the drink rather than ask the staff to remake it and risk an even longer wait. While this experience is not a deal breaker for this location, it will definitely make me think twice about going here in the future.

I ordered a latte and one of their sandwiches. The sandwich was really good. The service was great. The guy that took my order was very polite. The overall coffee shop is a decent size. It has a second floor where you can sit, which is really nice. Just be aware if you have little ones and are taking a stroller, it might be difficult to find a place for the stroller. I was lucky that it wasn't crowded when I went and was able to find a place for a double stroller that I have for my children.

My daughter got me a special coffee drink:) I didn't they to go inside, but from what I could see, it's a cool place to get your coffee fill. A refreshing alternative from the standard stuff. The food and baked goods looked yummy and well presented.

This is an amazing find while on biz and pleasure in my fav town of Chicago on the North side ! The dark roast coffee is the finest that I have experienced in a very long time .The fresh cooked to order breakfast sandwich , egg, goat cheese on English Muffin was pretty amazing . Tray the manager , a super friendly guy , guided me along the plentiful menu ... also tried a scrumptious Cowboy healthier cookie . Looking forward to coming back and hope they will expand out West to my present hometown of Fountain Hills AZ

Customer service is definitely spotty. If you're greeted with "good morning" you can at minimum respond in kind. It's not a high bar. The coffee is good, but this neighborhood has many options with significantly better customer service.

The service and coffee are ok but I was served the worst chocolate croissant I've ever tasted. The space is bright but the seating is inefficient and insufficient.
