  “Lovely staff! The menu is pretty minimal and basic, but still tasty. The banana & blueberry bread was spot on. They offer WiFi and there’s plenty of single and group seating options, as well as outside seating.”

  “We hadn’t planned to have breakfast at Mojo Coffee, but we happened to be nearby and went for convenience. On the plus side, the food was good and the coffee was nice. The atmosphere was also fine. The price though I would say was on the steep side – $42 with tip for two breakfast bowls, 2 coffees and a muffin. We had something similar in another cafe a couple of days prior for quite a bit less. Then there’s the tipping in coffee shops thing. Not being from the US this was new to me, and the last time I was here it wasn’t a thing. Restaurants, yes. Coffee shops, no, because I’m more than happy to get my purchase from the counter myself and I don’t think a 20% tip is justifiable. Yes, you can select your own amount, but you feel obligated when a staff member is standing over you. I guess this wouldn’t be such an issue if staff were paid a proper wage to begin with, and it wasn’t left to customers to supplement their wages. Anyway, that aspect aside, we enjoyed our food but given the price and the tipping culture it’s a one off.”

  “What a cute coffee spot! It’s on the first floor of an office building, so plenty of people meeting for quick business discussions, people working remotely, etc. There is free wifi available. The staff is friendly and provided great recommendations! Smoked salmon on rye was delicious, but not sure it was $12 worthy. Surprisingly, the pear, pineapple, spirulina (with mint, apple juice, and cucumber) smoothie was only $8 and pretty good tasting like green apple candy.”

  “I visit this place almost every week to enjoy breakfast and work remotely, and it never disappoints! The food is always fresh and high quality, and the staff are friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere is perfect for getting work done or simply relaxing with a great meal. Their avocado toast is by far the best I’ve ever had in Chicago —perfectly seasoned and beautifully presented. Whether you're looking for a cozy spot to work or just a delicious breakfast, this place is a fantastic choice. Highly recommend!"”

  “Mojo used to be go to place for an Australian Cappuccino and Caramel Slice in 2018 and I was pleasantly surprised to find today that this cafe hasn't changed. The coffee is still excellent and the food is just like home. The staff are also friendly and welcoming and the cafe has a good mix of indoor and outdoor area.”

  “Small coffee cafe with some hot food items, pastries, and pour overs. There's a decent amount of seating and service was pretty quick. …”

  “Love this place! Just a short walk from central station. Great coffee, wifi, atmosphere & the ham and cheese croissant was wonderful. I came another day for the sandwich of the day for lunch and it was amazing. The other food options looked great too. I ordered the greens both times and they were fresh & seasoned well. The service was wonderful both times. It's the perfect spot to escape central station & grab food/chill before hopping on a train. My picture is missing some greens b/c I ate them so fast. I ordered my food to go and service was fast. I wish I could have hung out more there b/c of the atmosphere. I will be back for sure! I came around rush hour the first time & then lunch the second time. Even when they are busy the service was great and fast with high quality food. I will be talking about that sandwich of the day for weeks.”

  “The coffee was good, the eggs benedict with salmon were ok, nothing special. It would be much tastier if they would serve it with some greens. The place is cozy with a beautiful view.”
