What Anthony T doesn't like about Fairgrounds Coffee Tea:
So I really like this place, but 3 out of my last 4 experiences have not been great. I try to come here everytime I finish my run down Lakeshore and through the parks. My first not great experience was about a month ago. A couple weeks before Chicago had mask mandates again, they were requiring masks. I didn't have mine because running outside with a mask on is terrible if I am not forced to, so I just couldn't go in... View all feedback. What andi n likes about Fairgrounds Coffee Tea:
Great local specialty coffee shop. They have a pour over menu (it's on the left) and espresso drinks. They were fairly busy but the line still moved fairly quick. The staff seemed friendly. I got a local roasters Ethiopian pour over and it was good, exactly what I expected and hoped for. If you looking for specialty coffee this is a great place downtown. I would recommend and would love to come back. View all feedback.

Lavender latte was good and staff very fast and friendly. The drawing room is a must see for everyone visiting/living in Chicago.

It was on our road to the garden. The place and service were good. We have ordered hot chocolate and one of the special drinks they made, not tasty.
