Postcard

Designer Heaven! Interiors, food, vibe, people, everything is made so that you interact purposefully with your surroundings. Our cashier was so pleasantly welcoming, I ordered a latte with earl grey syrup and a mortadella toastie. So delicious!! Overall delightful experience, I would love to try more from the menu and hope to come in when they have DJ’s playing music. I loved the workers uniform, logo, and menu. They really sell you the entire fantasy at this cafe, I can’t recommend enough!

Postcard in the West Loop feels like stepping into a modern Spanish café. The coffee was spot on, the food was excellent, and to my surprise, they even had Torres Iberian Ham chips the same ones I used to have back in Spain. That little detail instantly took me back. Beautiful design, sunlight everywhere, and a calm energy that makes you want to stay a while. Definitely one of the best new coffee spots in Chicago.

I enjoyed my hot hojicha drink but the aesthetic vibes here are even better. The atmosphere is immaculate. It's also rare to find a cafe that is still open late afternoon or even later. Plus they still have cafe drinks on menu during the late afternoon / early evening hours too. What a gem find! I would love to come back!

Loved the atmosphere, service, and the intentionality of this space, which to me came through the most in their approach to matcha. I almost *never* buy matcha out because 1) nine times out of ten, cafes makes it incorrectly (they use too hot water and burn the matcha therefore cancelling out its benefits, don't whisk it properly and leave it clumpy, etc), 2) use poor quality matcha, 3) they overcharge customers for the quantity of matcha they actually serve, and 4) I enjoy making it at home. However, I had a free drink coupon to Postcard and when it was my turn to order, I saw their matcha-making station right by the register and was impressed. They had the proper tools (bamboo whisk, sifter, etc), good quality, bright green matcha powder, AND two kettles with to-the-degree temperature control (aka they weren't just using the boiling water that comes from their espresso machines). So, I decided to give it a try and l am so glad I did!! My matcha latte was perfectly smooth, not at all bitter or gritty, and had such a delicate, natural sweetness. I will absolutely be back to reorder and am thrilled to have finally found a cafe that prepares its matcha in the way it's intended to be made. I hope proper preparation continues to be honored even during peak busy times!

my kind of cafe to be honest. simple, minimalist, and as mentioned in other review, every detail feels considered. the vibe was amazing, coffee was amazing too, we even went two times in the 4 day trip to chicago we did.

Postcard has become one of my new fav shops in the city! I enjoyed my experience very much. Got an iced Black Sesame Seed Maple Latte. It was so good 👌🏽 highly recommend!

First off, obsessed with the concept of this shop. It’s beautiful, inviting and just cool! The drinks were amazing. I don’t know where they get their espresso from but omg it was so good! Croissants were so buttery and flaky! I tried the tuna toast thing I forgot what it’s called and literally it was soooo good! Loved this shop so so much!

Lovely spot for coffee! The place has really nice aesthetics, and you can tell they pay a lot of attention to the details. The staff are friendly and the coffee tastes great. I’ll definitely be back.
