COFFEE BAR BY MORNING, WINE BAR BY NIGHT

We believe that wine, coffee, and tea all share a bond of incredible taste thanks to the farmers who first give them respect.  Whether you are a coffee and tea drinker or cappuccino lover, we will deliver the perfect cup for you. We proudly brew Metropolis coffee, small-batch artisan roasters in the heart of Chicago.  Almost all of the coffees and teas are fairly traded and grown organically.  To go along with your favorite beverage, we will carry home-made  and freshly baked quiches, breads, pastries, scones, cookies, brownies, and other sweet treats.  We also will stock our deli case with a variety of sandwiches, salads, olives, and cheeses.  Drink in style in our relaxed setting, either at a bar made from recycled glass, at a window bar made from reclaimed wine barrels, at handmade tables, or in the lounge.  Our wines offered by the glass provide an extensive range of styles and taste profiles.

Our focus is on small production wines that represent a range of varietals and price ranges from around the world.We have also designed a cellar room to safely house high- end wines, fine collectibles, and vertical releases in a temperature- and humidity-controlled environment.  Whether you are looking to go out on a limb and experiment with something new or need advice on what to have with dinner, we are here to help.

We will also carry a small selections of wine accessories, including corkscrews, break- resistant crystal stemware and decanters, and gift baskets for the holidays.
