I'm happy to make recommendations for folks for places to eat/drink/etc. out but would need to know more of what you're looking for in terms of area of the city or genre or price range, etc. (it's a big city... help me narrow it down).<br />
<br />
For those that are asking, my top pics for coffee shops to check out might be Intelly Broadway or Millenium Park stores, Metropolis' cafe (further north), and maybe Cafe Istria in the Hyde Park Art Center (south side) or Brother's K in Evanston (far north).…

<br />
You're welcome to come by The Coffee Studio too, of course. We're open 6.30 am-9pm everyday, and you're welcome to stop by anytime and say 'hello'.<br />
<br />
We're actually just a block from Metropolis' new roasting works (they're at 5545 N Clark, we're at 5628 N Clark), so if you're headed over there Friday night for their grand opening party/SCAA mixer, feel free to stop by the shop before/during/whatever.<br />
<br />
To welcome them to the neighborhood, we're actually gonna throw some of their Redline on our third grinder on Friday as our first guest spro, and all doubles (Black Cat Classic or Redline) will be on us. We'll be open til 9pm, and then we'll be swinging by the party ourselves.<br />

If you have time, stop by booth 902 to say hi and try samples of some of our yumminess......

I'll be in town the entire weekend and out and about Friday and Saturday nights. But I won't be down to CoffeeFest until Sunday. I've got some manufacturer tours and a certification class to attend also over the weekend.
