Cozy, artsy, and fun coffee shop. Great place to do work!
Everything is arranged for working or studying at this place! The atmosphere feels great. Everyone working here is diligent in their tasks. The coffee is delicious, and the prices are also very reasonable.
This place has a great atmosphere and delicious food and drinks. Great for working with lots of tables and wifi too!
i looove this location. adorable ambiance and reasonably priced drinks. the place is quite big so it's the perfect place for working.
Great place to come work from! The coffee was great and the staff was so kind. There’s lots of seating options and outlets. The place itself is pretty big and very comfortable.
Plenty of work stations and outlets.
My favorite coffee shop for a long weekend work session. Lots of table and different seating options.
Great place! I went to both location this one and the one in Logan Square. This location is bigger. But anyways, great cozy place to get some work done been there a few times now lol. If you plan on being there a few hours to get some work done, definitely get there early so you can find a sit, it will get crowded.
Great atmosphere, service and drinks👍🏼Spotty wifi 😔
Ice latte was good. Atmosphere was nice, lots of seating and cute decor. Baja bowl wasn't for me. Kinda bland and I wouldn't get food here again. Baristas and cashier were friendly.
wifi connection was abysmal. Wasn't able to upload a 1.5 min video in 40 min. If you don't rly require fast internet or are hungry, it's a cute spot for coffee/tea.
I had a latte with oat milk and taste was great. I had to do some work there and it was easy to connect wifi and it has a great atmosphere to work. Most people in the cafe was working as well. I wanted to sit outside but it was kind of chilly. I really wanted to order one of the staff’s pick in the menu. But it was hard to read menu lol I want to try bakery next time.
This is our every day place. A visit to collectivo is usually my first stop of the day. The coffee is consistently good, the service is amazing and I feel safe at collectivo as a trans person.
The environment has a great vibe. Kind of rural chic. The lighting is a nice color, there are couches and a second floor overlook and an outdoor space and it's all set up where I can easily see my 6 year old daughter while she parades around; which creates a bubble of agency in her life that she doesn't get at many other locations and truly needs.
Everyone working at collectivo are absolutely darlings to me. Great job giving me a safe space as I navigate Chicago in my first few years. Thank you all!
Edit: My one issue with this place is a the slow wifi. It’s become more and more unreliable and usually 2mbps then constantly cuts out. Please fix this!
Really great coffee and one of the best coffee shops to get work done in wicker park
Normally I really like Colectivo's space but this one has some issues; namely, if you come in and it looks crowded, don't bother. Even if you manage to get a seat, the wifi is basically nonfunctional when there's too many people here.
