Very cool space. The inside is a little dark, and no outdoor seating that I saw. There aren't any seats, minus the one at the coffee bar that I found with a window nearby. This is the perfect place to disappear into the dark with a great cup of coffee and get some work done. The coffee side of the cafe serves strictly Nicaraguan, single origin stuff and they do it well. I got the pour over and the carafe carried the theme over, which is always a good sign for quality. Every assembly of coffee drink is done critically and well here. I highly recommend for a good quality coffee drink and very comfortable place to study or get work done. Plenty of nooks and corners of seating.

Best avocado toast I've ever eaten. Delicious Nicaraguan coffee (even just their filter coffee) with gorgeous aesthetic. Lighting is dim, which might be hard for work, but it is a cozy space and the atmosphere is wonderful. Will be returning!

Came for brunch and enjoyed great coffee, a relaxed vibe and excellent food. Well worth checking out.

Cafe Integral was our choice for breakfast on one of two mornings we spent in Chicago. We were overall disappointed. It starts with the menu. If you’re a person with a special diet of any kind (vegetarian, gluten free), or maybe just someone who checks out restaurant menus to help make a choice about where to go, then you rely on online menus being up to date. (Putting aside for the moment restaurants whose menus change frequently or who at least bother to state the menu online is just a sample of what they offer.) Cafe Integral’s menu in person was different than what appeared online…the main difference being fewer choices. When asked about this, the staff informed us they recently had “scaled back” their menu. Okay, so please also scale it back online so we can make an informed choice about whether to give you a shot. I had the Pour Over coffee (as any good brunch loving citizen of the morning should.) It wasn’t bad but would have liked it bolder rather than smoother. I also ordered the Breakfast sandwich without meat. (You have a choice of sourdough or bagel…I picked sourdough. For vegetarians avocado is an option instead of meat which is nice. (Except I don’t really like avocado that much so I opted to not have it. The 2-year cheddar it comes with is cooked in with the eggs which unfortunately had the effect of it not being noticeable visually or by taste. I had to ask the server if they had forgotten the cheese because it was really a non-presence. Also, the omelet eggs were over fried My wife liked the sunny side eggs and greens she ordered. (Assembled from the “Sides & Extras” Menu.) She thought it was perfectly fine but nothing amazing. We would have loved to try the Yucca Hash that was listed on the online menu and looked pretty amazing by description, but was, unfortunately a victim of the “scaling back” of their menu. Our impression of the staff also wasn’t so great…not a particularly friendly bunch. The first person we encountered when we walked in told us in a kind of not-so-happy-to-see-us manner that we should order then sit. Later the person who brought our food seemed visibly inconvenienced by the lack of space on the table where she had to put our order. She also seemed like I was interrupting her when I later asked where the bathroom was. It just seems basic that staff at service oriented businesses should go out of their way to be friendly and welcoming…especially in the morning when your interactions with other human beings can set the tone for your whole day. Overall all of our experience here was disappointing.

Great coffee and delicious food. Not the best service unfortunately. I ordered at the same time as my friends and waited an extra 20 minutes for my meal. I was not given cutlery or a napkin either. They even took the number sign from our table, meaning they must have forgotten my order but still refused to say anything of the sort. By the time my food arrived my friends had long finished (I couldn't let them wait and eat it cold).
