NIGHTLIFE: COFFEE HOUSES Frommer
Intelligentsia

A down-to-earth San Francisco married couple has set up its own coffee-roasting operation here in the heart of Chicago's Lakeview neighborhood. Beans are roasted in a French roaster that dominates the cafe, and the owners also make their own herbal and black teas -- served in a small pot with an hourglass that tells you when the tea is steeped. Warm drinks are served in handsome cups nearly too big to get your hands around, and tea sippers are furnished with their own pot and brew timer. Sit in the window or in one of the Adirondack chairs on the sidewalk and watch the world go by, or decamp to the homey seating area in the back.
