Chicago Nightlife

Intelligentsia Review

Intelligentsia was named to invoke the pre-chain days when cafés were forums for discussion, but the long, broad farmer's tables and handsome couches are usually occupied by students and other serious types who treat the café like their office. The store does all of its own coffee roasting and sells its house blends to local restaurants.
