Drip Collective

"The splashy second location of Side Practice Coffee and Four Letter Word is constantly hosting pop-ups and coffee events, sporting one of the most unique coffee lineups in town, with selections from all over the world. Customers really don’t know what to expect at Drip, with flavors like matcha, turon, and — yes — ube. Grab a seat at the counter and watch how true professionals work." - Ashok Selvam

"After years of popping up at bars and festivals, Chubby Boys established a morning residency at Drip Collective over the summer. The highlight is the breakfast sandwich, a thick block of egg served in a potato bun with bacon jam, kewpie mayo, a hashbrown, and slices of fresh jalapenos. Vegetarians won’t be disappointed by the chickpea chorizo burrito accompanied by a side of green salsa. This isn’t a traditional brunch meal, but it merits a stop for folks who are short on time." - Samantha Nelson, Eater Staff

"With framed posters from a featured artist, a designated DJ corner, a merch section, and chairs shaped like giant hands, this West Loop coffee shop looks like a mix between art gallery and creatives’ loft studio. They serve nutty spiced ube lattes, Ovaltine mochas, and a sweet and funky espresso drink with gochujang, five spice, and sesame oil. If you get hungry while getting caffeinated, you can order a tasty breakfast sandwich or burrito from their resident food pop-up, Chubby Boys." - John Ringor
