Deliciously fresh brunch and a great coffee. Had a great BLT on fresh sourdough. The stuffed strawberry croissant was so yummy, and didn't leave me feeling heavy like over-processed pastries from lesser cafes often do. A little bit of a wait for hot food, but so worth it when supporting a small business. Employees were all kind and calm despite the long line! Loved the music and great bustling atmosphere inside. Definitely looking forward to coming back.

I ordered the london fog, the male employee with dark curly hair serviced me. He was very sweet and full of energy, seemed to really enjoy his job. Unfortunately there wasn’t anything I saw that I was interested in eating but the london fog was honestly very good, it had a good amount of sweetness and felt very balanced. Wouldn’t mind coming here again for the london fog

The best coffee in Chicago. The espresso is amazing - you can taste the difference between Soloway vs other coffee shops. Plus, Andriy the owner and his wife are great, accommodating, and have built something really special with Soloway - something that Chicago needed!

My favourite coffee shop in Chicago, I come here most mornings and being from Melbourne I have a passion for a good Flat White and this is the only place in Lincoln Park that’ll do that for you. The baristas are also super nice and do the extra bit even when they’re busy, so I would highly recommend!

they have such a unique seasonal drink menu. i tried their thai basil matcha which was surprising and unexpected, but also refreshing. i didn’t get any baked goods, but they all looked delicious in the case. would love to come back to try more of their drinks and some of the food too

Cute spot! Service was welcoming and quick. Lots of seating available indoors and outdoors. Sweet brew was not as sweet and was a bit sour for my taste. The barista was super kind and fixed the coffee to my liking 👍 Neopolitan cake was a large portion and delicious! I am eager to go back again and will try the popular Pistachio croissant next.

My favorite kind of Sunday starts with an 8K run here. It’s the perfect distance from my place, which means I get to earn a slow morning with incredible coffee, something sweet and absolutely no rush. Who needs a protein shake when you can have the most delicious syrnyky with mango purée and coconut cream instead? I also love picking up a bag of their coffee beans so every morning at home starts just as well. I’m still determined to make it to one of their bread markets, but somehow they’re always on Fridays - the exact day someone decides to schedule a last-minute Zoom call. So please, give us a few more pop-ups while the weather is beautiful and we can all still enjoy being outside. ☕️🥞🥭🥥

I absolutely love Soloway! I stop by almost every day for an oat milk coffee, and on weekends it has become a tradition for my wife and me to have breakfast here. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, the staff is always friendly, and the quality is consistently excellent. The coffee is amazing, and the breakfasts are delicious and beautifully prepared. It’s one of those places you genuinely look forward to coming back to. Highly recommend Soloway to anyone looking for great coffee, delicious food, and a cozy atmosphere!

One of my favorite spots in the city. Everything here feels thoughtfully done—from the cozy interior to the genuinely friendly service. The menu has something for every mood, the ingredients always taste fresh, and every dish I’ve tried has been consistently delicious. Their coffee is excellent too, which makes it an easy choice whether I’m grabbing something to go or taking my time over breakfast. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to come back, and I happily do. Highly recommended!
