LINCOLN PARK- As someone who frequents a long walk along Halsted Street or North Clark Avenue, there is always the need to make a quick pit stop for a beverage. For my “coffeeholics,” I have created a Lincoln Park Coffee Shops Map that breaks down my top 10 coffee shops that must be on your list. Here are some highlights.
La Colombe is located on Armitage Avenue on the strip of endless small-owned businesses. A perfect treat during a mid-day shopping trip, a small breakfast or just a refreshing iced coffee. La Colombe is known for their Black and Tan iced coffee, a mixture of cold brew and espresso beans. A must-try menu item, along with the seasonal beverages they offer in the fall and winter.

To continue the Chicagoland chains, Philz Coffee Lincoln Avenue l is an excellent place to take a study break, have an afternoon meeting or a quick weekend coffee date. Filled with couches, high tops and low tops, there is plenty of space to meet with friends to chat over a new cup of specialized flavor beans from Philz. If you are looking for rich, chocolate and bitter flavors, Philz Mocha is a must-try.

Colectivo Coffee is a right-in-the-middle coffee shop that falls in the local but chain category. The Lincoln Park location has a fantastic outdoor patio—the best summer afternoon catch-up spot.
