HERO Coffee Bar Reviews

Overall Rating

The coffee, art and staff here are so great that it’s almost... a crime. (Go ahead and cringe at that pun if you want.) I stop by almost every day during my breaks for their nitro cold brew, and it gets better every time!

I highly recommend picking up one of their poptarts to go with with your drink; they’re awesome AND, like everything else on the menu, they’re at a fair price point that won’t break the bank!

Super unique coffee experience. Loved walking in to hear Destiny's Child & Biz Markie playing through the speakers. Delicious coffee - you have to try the Peach PopTart. Staff was friendly and answered any questions.

Friendly and fast service in a really cool little bar-turned-cafe. Loved visiting and would again. High quality espresso drinks. I recommend this place.

I had great expectations about this place and the coffee but I was kinda disappointed. Do not get me wrong… it’s not a bad place and actually they made a pretty good espresso. However, I got the White Mocha Latte and it was very basic. I was expecting more flavors.

Maria Giacchino 5 stars rating.

Amazing vibes. I walked in feeling like they already knew exactly what I needed. The entire staff had great energy and it put me in such a great mood. I had a bagel sandwich and coffee. This is honestly the BEST bagel sammy I have ever had. Definitely beats Gotham bagels.

This location is good for grab and go. Not the best for if you want a coffee meetup with a work/business partner.

Good for beautiful city views if you sit outside!

If you’re near here, there’s a lot of coffee options, this one is worth skipping the Starbucks train forsure.

This place is just out of this planet! I can easily say this is one the best bagels I’ve ever had in my entire life. How can this bagels be so soft? I’m biting a super flavorful cloud

Caffeine is the true superHERO
@herocoffee ‘s super power is providing the South Loop with lots of espresso, bagels, and pastries. This Latina owned coffee shop offers a perfectly curated coffee menu with flavors like lavender honey (pink latte art with flowers), blackberry dark chocolate (blue latte art), hazelnut cayenne (Hero to-go cup), matcha (mason jar), and many many more in both hot and iced options. They also have delicious bagel sandwiches like the amazing Smooth Criminal - bagel of choice, goat cheese, fig jam, Monterey Jack cheese, basil, siracha, & egg). Plus they collab with other women-owned and small Chicago businesses like @beacondoughnuts
@grabbdapp collab

I don’t give a sip????

But I will take multiple sips from my coffee from @herocoffee ! Had to stop by one of my favorite Chicago coffee shops one last time before leaving this city. Their lattes and bagels never disappoint. First discovered them through a @grabbdapp collab and got to try many items. My favorite was by far the Smooth Criminal bagel (swipe!) with fig jam, a fried egg, sriracha, Monterey Jack cheese, basil, and goat cheese on a cheddar herb bagel. Today I paired it with an ice caramel latte. Be sure to order ahead with @ritual_chi @ritual_co to avoid the long line of this busy spot!

Breakfast on the run? Just parked in the South loop and starving before a meeting in the loop? This is the place to stop by. Bagels and coffee is the typical start off for busy and cranky days. The Usual Suspect is what I need and it seems who makes them knows it. I am sure yoh can find what you need too: the chef knows in advance. Coffee is great and as per my wife quote:"the almond cappuccino is foamy"! That is something difficult to make with nut based milks. I wish they were open on late afternoon too as a cup of coffee sometimes would have be a real treat when passing by.

We were staying at the Hotel Blake and not knowing this place existed, had breakfast there on our first day. Thank goodness we found this coffee bar. The selection of different types of bagels is good, but the selection of fillings is amazing. Plus you can have coffee any way you like it!

The staff is extremely friendly and helpful.

We ate there every day, even getting up early on the day we left so we could pay a final visit before making our way to the airport.

We order bagels here all the time. Best bagels in town!! Today I tried to order a drink and my Apple Pay wasn’t working. I felt terrible and was going to run out to my car for a different card, but the gal at the counter was SO KIND and had me covered. Did not catch her name, but what a great group of folks working on a Saturday morning!! Thank you.

Great location from our hotel 'Hotel Blake'. Had the oatmilk latte which is very good - creamy and hot like a latte should be. Prices are very reasonable - cheaper than Starbucks. Recommend...

It wasn’t so good like I thought it was going to be.. The people were nice but I do not recommend their food. I’ll ask for a hazelnut iced coffee and it tasted like water so I added some sugar to it and it still wasn’t that good. The bagel that I ordered was a wheat bread bagel with only avocado on it and it was not good at all. I think it was more of the bread that wasn’t that good. I didn’t like how they had an outdoor eating place it felt very much city vibes. But overall i won’t be going again. The picture came out cute though.

I was happy to have found this coffee shop near my hostel (Hi Chicago). The latte was good, and the egg and cheese bagel was delicious. I had breakfast there almost every day while visiting Chicago. The staff is also very friendly.
