Great shop. Good coffee, good vibe, good space, good seating, good music. Perfect for a quick coffee, or for settling in to get some work or reading done.

Cafe Mustache, Where Coffee Meets Counter Culture

Cafe Mustache is not your average coffee shop; it's a rebel with a cause. Nestled in the eclectic neighborhoods of Chicago, this cafe is a sanctuary for artists, musicians, and anyone who dares to think outside the box. The moment you walk in, you're greeted by the aroma of freshly brewed coffee mingling with the subtle undertones of artistic freedom.

The decor is a kaleidoscope of retro charm and indie vibes, like stepping into the living room of your coolest friend, the one who always knows the latest underground bands and zines.

From the robust Dark Roast of Anarchy to the subtly sweet Socialist Latte, Cafe Mustache serves up brews that are as unique and rebellious as its patrons and each cup is a manifesto in liquid form. And if you're hungry, their vegan pastries are a culinary protest against the mainstream, deliciously defying all norms.

What truly sets Cafe Mustache apart is its commitment to community. With regular events like open mics and poetry reading it is a cultural hub where creativity flows as freely as the coffee.

So, if you crave a cup of coffee that comes with a side of counter culture, Cafe Mustache is your go-to spot for revolution in a cup.

Very fun place, awesome karaoke night! Someone played my song "Hard To Explain" by The Strokes before me and you know what? I absolutely loved it, great place.

Always such a fun vibe and decorations!
The food is good and drinks are good. The place often has fun activities, live music and karaoke. Cool cool cool!

The place is a bit run down and needs some renovation

**RACISTS** A group of friends and I decide to stop in here for a few drinks. My friends got in before me. I walked up about five minutes after them. They were sitting in the patio section and I greeted them as I walked up. That’s when a person at the door laughed and told me “I’m not letting you in”. I was caught off guard so I asked him “me?” He said yes and walked away in to the bar. I was appalled by the reaction so I asked the other two people at the door what the reason was for me not being allowed in. The guy first tried to tell me I fell off of a scooter. Then he changed his story and said my friend (who was already in the bar) fell off of a scooter so that’s why I couldn’t come in. Then he told me that I was loud. Mind you this place was empty. While I am trying to figure out why I’m not being allowed in a group of very loud, and clearly drunk white women walk up SCREAMING and are allowed right in. When I asked how they are allowed in and I’m not. They didn’t have an answer. I am Middle Eastern and I was racially profiled that night. I would NEVER recommend this place. Unprofessional, rude, disgusting, and **RACIST**

A nice, spacious place to work that wasn't too crowded (even on a Saturday morning). The black pepper & fig latte was amazing, though a little pricey. The quiche tasted good but was not like a normal quiche crust - still good. The chili was great as well.

Great mix of coffee shop by day, bar and event space by night. Staff is nice and it’s a fun place to work for an afternoon or meet someone for coffee.

They’ve got great food too! We enjoy the Egg & Cheese Bagel as well as the Country Time Wrap.

Hands-down my favorite cafe and bar in Logan Square (possibly the whole city). Chill, quirky vibe and diverse patrons, seating, and programming. Delicious food, even the healthy options! Amazing cocktails (including N/A), cheap beers, friendly staff, dedicated owners. A++
