Breakfast sandwich was just ok. Frappuccino was really tasty, but whipped cream topping was missing. Presentation of both sandwich and drink didn't mimic what I've seen online and could've been better. Pastry selection left a lot to be desired. The environment was clean, comfortable and cozy. And the support staff (believe it was the owner's mom) was very warm and welcoming.

Visited Erin’s Cup around 10:30am on a Sunday. Calming and inviting ambience with attentive, young workers. The owner, Eric was assisting her team with others. Love to see it! We ordered: Black coffee (no additions) Cinnamon Roll (warmed up) Butter cookies Fruit cup Cashless business! Leave a tip ☺️ Overall 10/10. I’ll be back next time I’m in the Morgan Park Community!!

I don’t know what to brag on first since my entire experience was amazing. My caramel Macchiato with oat milk was chefs kiss. The staff were attentive, friendly and very engaging. When I couldn’t decide on my food item I was given clear and detailed answers on the toppings of the wraps and sandwiches. I went with the turkey avocado wrap and yall it tasted AMAZING! The atmosphere was so calm and inviting. Plus they have a loyalty punch card so the more I go I get closer to earning a free item. Overall, my experience was 10 out of 10 and this is my new favorite spot for coffee dates with my friends!

I made the right decision today!! My memory was fuzzy on where I learned of a new coffee shop owned by a young black female entrepreneur. Well, this screams SUPPORT to me! I lucked out and was first in line. Coffee came up quick and fresh. I didn’t have to “tweak” it at all. Grabbed a straw so I could enjoy it hot without dribbling. *BONUS* there’s a parking lot with easy in-out thanks to a 4 way stop sign. Think I’ll make this my Friday spot. Wishing you continued success Erin.

Erin’s Cup is a boutique coffee shop, owned by a determined and driven 17-year-old Chicago Public School student in Morgan Park that feels like a warm cup of cocoa. The staff is courteous and efficient. The prices are reasonable and the selection is vast. Stop by and give this coffee shop a try!

My son loves coffee, so we try different cafes pretty regularly. We took the 20-minute drive to this one. He took his first sip and sat back in appreciation. The food (coffee infused turkey bacon) invoked the same response. Khale made us feel welcomed and even gave us some fun trivia. 10/10 Highly recommend

Erins Cup coffee was delicious!! I loved the history question before ordering. It made the atmosphere welcoming. I will be back! Thank you for the experience.

Erin's coffee and the vibes were great! The lemonade was refreshing, sweet and sour, without artificial taste. The latte was perfect! I also loved the customer service. They were welcoming, engaging, and came with all the fun black facts. I loved it there and will definitely be back.

This is a new gem in the Morgan Park neighborhood. Ordered my usual iced coffee and it was great and well made. The star of the show is the coffee bacon breakfast sandwich. It's coffee bacon, freshly made eggs to order, and cheese, on an English muffin. It's delicious! Coffee bacon is a vibe! There's a parking lot for customers, which is a plus considering this area can get congested! This is a local Black owned business, and the owner is a teenager! Please come and support!

This is a cute little coffee shop. Upon entering we were greeted with a pleasant hello how can we help you? We took a moment to review the menu and purchased a cherry lemonde refresher, cappuccino with hazelnut and a cinnamon roll. Everything was tasty and homemade.

Today is BFF Friday, that's BEST FOODIE FINDS Friday! And I'm here to share my review on another amazing small business in Chicago... I love my coffee, and I love love, love, coffee shops! Well, if you're looking for another great spot to add to your list, I got you. Hop on over to Erin's Cup , a cozy coffeeshop located in the Morgan Park neighborhood on the southside of Chicago. Erin is a 17-year-old high school senior who turned her dream into a reality and opened up this coffee shop. Erin and her business partner, Khale are amazing!! You feel the love as soon as you enter the doors. This hidden gem has quickly become my get away to get some work done or do nothing at all! I highly recommend the Caramel Macchiato and Pork Coffee Bacon breakfast sandwich on a croissant! Yummers! Hope y'all enjoy as much as I did! Cheers and Chow for Now!

I had the opportunity to check out this very cozy and lovely spot for mid-morning drink and pastry along with a good friend of mine. Since we came before lunchtime during the middle of the week, there were only a few patrons there. I had a chance to sit down and enjoy an oat milk caramel macchiato along with a cheese danish and enjoyed everything I ordered. The baristas there were very friendly and provided great service. FYI -- be sure to ask them about their Black History trivia trivia question of the day -- they offered us a VERY nice discount if we could correctly answer! Unfortunately, we didn't answer it correctly, but, hey -- nobody's perfect, right? :-) Can't wait to return and try more things on their menu!

The staff is so friendly and accommodating! We had the best time at the local gem before a day of adventuring around town. She got dirty chai latte with oat milk and a blueberry muffin (which they warmed up!!!) and I got an iced americano and a danish, breakfast of champions!

Erin's is awesome! The coffee and food is delicious and the service is excellent but the backstory is even more dope. The owner is 17 and the 2024 Young Entrepreneur of the Year! I'm so glad Erin decided to fulfill her childhood dream in this community! May you have phenomenal and unmeasured success!

The food is decent. Coffee is decent as well. The bacon on my breakfast sandwich wasn't crispy like it was reheated. I did still enjoy my sandwich.

Stopped in at Erin's Cup after I heard about it in the Facebook group Chicago Southside & South Suburban Vegans. This is a super cute shop that makes delicious fresh roasted coffee drinks and they make them to perfection! I choose the plant based milks and they have oat & almond. The owners are so nice Erin & Khale and the service is great too! Looking forward to returning and trying something else. Please support this cute independent coffee shop!

Just stopped in this morning for a cup of cappuccino. One of the best I had in a while. Was not thinking about something to eat because of the salt content in all of the processed foods. The gentleman behind the counter "Khale" informed me that the Egg and sausage sandwich on a croissant was made fresh and that they would not add salt to my eggs. That sandwich was absolutely delicious. Looking forward to my next return trip. In the meantime "Khale" I will be brushing up on my history. Pleasure meeting you and the young lady behind the counter.

This place is a gem in the neighborhood. It's great for a fresh bit and fresh brew coffee that hasn't been sitting all day like Starbucks. So if you've been yearning for a change, this is the place to come

Best cup of coffee I've had in eons. Absolutely delicious latte and great ambience. It's a bit out of the way, but the flavor is WORTH the drive. Parking lot is next door which makes going more convenient. Service was top notch. All around a fantastic experience!!

This is a true GEM on the southside of Chicago. The atmosphere, quality of healthy food options and the customer service is exemplar. Thank you for bringing a business like this to the Morgan Park/Washington Height neighborhood. Khale is such a great spirit and helps to make each one of my visits special. If you haven't been what are you waiting on?

I've been looking for a quick, quiet, and relaxed cafe in the area since I take our little one to school in the Morgan Park area. I found Erin's Cup earlier today and was blown away by the friendly staff and owner Khale that served me. Definitely returning and will be a guest as often as I can.

I normally only come in on weekends for a coffee and a breakfast sandwich went last weekend and seen that it was another young lady with red braids making the sandwich's behind the register which I noticed it's a super small space. I didn't have a issue until I saw her ringing people out with the same gloves she used to make the sandwich's I don't think I'll be back to Erin's cup after this beyond grossed out took one bite and couldn't finish!

Went to Erin's cup to support the young lady since she is a 17 year old business owner. When I went inside both times I have to be honest it took the young man 15 mins to make my drink both times and when it was made the other young lady with the brown hair told him to add more things to my drink and basically didn't care enough to do that. That day Erin didn't really seem like she wanted to be there and was on her phone not helping her employees not really giving the same energy from the news videos .The next day I decided maybe they were both having bad days and give the breakfast sandwich a chance the nice young lady rung me out and made my sandwich which it was delicious! The same thing happened with my coffee and that day again. Overall I would go back for the excellent customer service from the young lady who makes the sandwich's .
